Description of the problem	I was on the interstate and attempting to get off at an exit when i touched the brakes they grabbed hard, the abs light came on, the abs whine started but i did not have my foot on the brakes. This caused steering to be almost impossible and there where significant downgrades on both sides of the road. While using force to turn the sterring wheel to the right to keep from goin over the embankment thye brakes released which cause me to almost go over the embanckment on the right. The brakes keep grabbing and releasing until i was able to pull off the roadway. The vehicle was towed to t he dealership and i am waiting to hear from them. This could have caused serious injury or death had the truck gone over the embankment on either side. I'm used to driving and stay pretty alert but there are those that this would have made them freeze up and it would have ended in tragedy!
