| Description of the problem | 6 months ago i hit a pot hole while braking to make a turn. The abs engaged and the brake peddle went to the floor. I missed the turn. The brake peddle went 3/4 travel before the brakes would slow the car. After 3 days the brakes returned to normal. I brought the car to my mechanic and he couldn't find the problem. On dec 2, 2019 i was driving in snow and it happened again. After the abs engaged it took longer to stop the car. This time the brakes are not returning to normal. I am planning on changing the abs hydraulic control unit. |
