| Description of the problem | On more than 5 occasions while driving on rough terrain or a wet surface my brakes went soft and failed to stop my vehicle completely. All incidents occurred while driving on a city street at the speed limit. The vehicle was taken to the mechanic two times after two separate incidents and there was no problem with the brakes found. After the latest occurrence i did some research online and found out there was a problem with the anti-lock control braking module. We paid a total of $1,095. 05 to have it corrected. Not a problem since. |
