| Description of the problem | Vsc, abs,brake lights flashing and abs light stayed on two of the times while other lights went off this happened 4 -5 times making the car unable to drive. Also i went sliding through a stop sign unable to brake. Lost total control of vehicle while trying to stop. 3) had it towed to dealer in moline, illinois. They could not find a problem. Two weeks later, it happened again and i had it towed to dealer again in moline, illinois and they still have the vehicle. They are having trouble diagnosing the problem. They have replaced a computer in front thus far. Note: the service rep. Is working on this problem diligently. However, this is a serious problem and a major safety issue.
