| Description of the problem | While driving under normal conditions, 35-50 mph, dry, good, smooth, straight road conditions, i applied the brakes and the pedal went almost to the floor before the brakes started being applied. I have since learned of a recall for prior model years (18v916000) and subsequent model years of my vehicle due to abs problems. Part of the fix is to replace the dot3 factory-specified brake fluid specified for my vehicle with dot4 brake fluid due to corrosion of brake system components. I have determined that it is in fact an abs problem, as i can now skid the tires during heavy braking, and the anti-lock brake pump does not activate. The brake pedal travels about 75 percent of the distance to the floor before any braking of the vehicle occurs. |
