| Description of the problem | When abs engages, the brake pedal becomes really squishy, and has to be pushed to the floor in order to stop the vehicle. Doesn't feel like it would be able to stop in emergency situation. Has been happening for years, but hasn't been an issue in dry california. Note california is wet, and it happens all the time. Abs seems overly eager to engage, and this condition takes days before brake pedal seems normal again. |
