| Description of the problem | I have e-mailed you several times and no answer. Front brakes on my jeep lock up on slick road and you have no control, almost wrecked several times. Anti lock brakes do not work on front. Vehicle has anti-lock brakes on all four wheels. I cannot get any satisfaction from company. Servioce manager drove it and almost wrecked. Another mechanic drove it and said the only way that you could stop it on slick road was 4-wheel. I paid $23,900. 00 for it and should be able to drive it on sllick roads. *ak |
