| Description of the problem | Approaching a red light, pressed the brakes, peddle went soft (no pressure). The car did not stop immediately, only slowed down. Luckily, i allowed much space in front of me to slow the vehicle to a stop. Immediately took the car to a dealership, they state they can not duplicate. This vehicle has a problem with the abs hydraulic module from what i have read from other owners who have had this problem fixed under warranty. I am one of the unlucky many whose local dealership will not acknowledge that this repair is necessary. I pray that this problem does not cause a loss of life, however am concerned it might. |
