general problems of the 1998 Toyota Land Cruiser

I live in utah, the incident occurred in san francisco with children in car. Going down one of the steeper roads towards fisherman wharf. The abs alarm went off and I lost all breaking power. I immediately downshifted(automatic trans), used the emergency break almost killed some pedestrians. . Pulled over. I checked all fuses, breaks. Etc. I did not have any money, so as nightfall came upon us, with abs glaring in our ears. I drove through the night back to utah when the traffic was the lowest and used the emergency break all the way home, it was a horrific experience. The repair on this was not cheep where I had the abs/brakes fixed so the breaks would work at our local dealer where I live, this was about 8-10 years ago, I am still pretty upset someone cold have been killed, why would the breaks fail if the abs fails. . This could have killed my family and/or someone else. I would have to check with menlove bountiful Toyota for an exact date of repair.
