 Description of the problemWhen braking hard today (it was raining and i got cut off by a distracted driver) my car went into a (barely) controlled skid. Abs, esp. Steering wheel lights all flashing with three beeps. The lights went away when i turned the car off/on. My wife is 7 months pregnant, and was with me in the car. I'm not impressed with what i'm reading online regarding the sheer volume of others experiencing complete abs failure. Someone is going to get killed if vw doesn't recall the malfunctioning control module. I've booked my car in for service next week. I truly hope vw steps up and finally accepts responsibility for this life-saving repair. Ps i'm in british columbia, canada (victoria).
