| Description of the problem | While coasting to a stop sign today, i went to press the brake pedal to find the pedal locked at the top of the travel. As i pressed the pedal, the abs started modulating like the tires were locked up, but they weren't as i was on dry pavement and not slowing down at all. I frantically pumped the brake pedal and after several depressions (3-5) the pedal unlocked and traveled normally allowing me to stop the vehicle. |
