2009 Ford Fusion Brakes

ON 3 OCCASIONS MY ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM SEEMED TO ENGAGE AND FAIL CAUSING THE ENTIRE BRAKE SYSTEM ITSELF TO FAIL. ONE OCCASION WAS BRAKING OVER A SLICK SURFACE IN A CITY STREET, MY ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ATTEMPTED TO ENGAGE AND THE PEDAL THEN WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR AND MY VEHICLE HARDLY SLOWED DOWN EVEN 5 MPH. ON TWO OTHER OCCASIONS GOING OVER UNEVEN SURFACES, ONE A HIGH WAY EXIT RAMP, THE OTHER A CITY STREET UNDER CONSTRUCTION. I ATTEMPTED TO BRAKE SO MY SUSPENSION SYSTEM WOULD TAKE LESS OF AN IMPACT, AND BECAUSE OF THE OBJECT I WAS GOING OVER MY ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ENGAGED AND FAILED. ON BOTH OCCASIONS THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE HARDLY SLOWS AT ALL. EACH TIME THIS HAPPENS THE BRAKE PEDAL WILL NOT RECOVER FOR APPROXIMATELY 2-3 WEEKS. BY THIS I MEAN THAT I MUST DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL ABOUT 80% BEFORE THE BRAKES WILL ACTUALLY ENGAGE. AFTER THE 2-3 WEEK PERIOD THE BRAKES SEEM TO GO BACK TO NORMAL ON THEIR OWN. ON ALL THREE OCCASIONS MY BRAKE PADS WERE AT LEAST 80% AND THE BRAKE FLUID WAS FULL.

WAS DRIVING ABOUT 10 MPH IN A PARKING LOT WHILE IT WAS 28 FARENHEIT OUT . SOMEONE BACKED UP WITHOUT LOOKING AND I PUSHED ON MY BRAKE TO STOP AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I HIT THE VEHICLE. FELT LIKE THE ABS TURNED ON FOR A SECOND THEN I LOST ALL BRAKING POWER. THE PARKING LOT WAS NOT SLIPPERY. CAUSED A SCUFFED BUMPER AND BENT LICENSE PLATE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. WHAT IF I WAS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND HAD TO MAKE A EMERGENCY STOP. IM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR NOW. DID A QUICK ONLINE SEARCH AND IT TURNS OUT ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE FORD FUSIONS. OTHER PERSON HAD NO INSURANCE SO IM STUCK WITH A SMALL AMOUNT OF DAMAGE TO MY CAR.

SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF SEVERAL YEARS, AFTER THE ABS HAS ENGAGED WHILE DRIVING, THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES "SOFT" AND HAS TO BE DEPRESSED ALL OR NEARLY ALL OF THE WAY TO THE FLOOR IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO STOP. USUALLY, THE BRAKE PEDAL STAYS "SOFT" FOR SEVERAL HOURS, THEN RETURNS TO NORMAL THE SAME DAY. IN THE PAST, I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALER, AND THEY HAVE STATED THAT THEY COULDN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO THEY COULDN'T FIX IT. THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS ON SEPTEMBER 29, 2017. AFTER SEVERAL DAYS, THE BRAKES STILL HADN'T RETURNED TO NORMAL, SO I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER (DEWEY FORD IN ANKENY, IOWA). THEY STATED THAT THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT HAD TO BE REPLACED. WITH PARTS AND LABOR, THE REPAIR BILL CAME TO $1,318.06, BEFORE TAXES.

SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR, I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH LOSING BRAKE PRESSURE AFTER MY ABS BRAKES WERE ACTIVATED. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS ON A COUNTRY ROAD. I HIT THE BRAKES PRETTY HARD TO AVOID HITTING A DEER. AFTER THE ABS ACTIVATED, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR BEFORE BRAKES WOULD WORK. I CALLED A FRIEND OF MINE THAT IS A FORD CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN. HE HAD ME PUMP THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES AND THE PEDAL CAME BACK UP. ANOTHER TIME I WAS APPROACHING A RED LIGHT DOING ABOUT 10 MPH WHEN ONE TIRE HIT A DIP IN THE ROAD AND THE OTHER TIRE DID NOT. THE ABS ACTIVATED AND I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL. AFTER A FEW DAYS, THE BRAKE PEDAL FREED UP AND WAS BACK TO NORMAL. ANOTHER TIME, I WAS PULLING OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND AS THE FIRST TIE WENT OFFROAD, THE ABS ACTIVATED. AGAIN THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND WAS SOFT. PUMPING THE BRAKES NO LONGER WORKED AND BRAKING DISTANCE WAS LONGER. I TOOK THE CAR TO A MECHANIC SEVERAL TIMES. HAD BRAKES, ROTORS AND PISTONS REPLACED BUT IT STILL CONTINUES TO HAPPEN EVERYTIME THE ABS BRAKES ACTIVATE. IT HAPPENED A FEW MORE TIMES DURING WINTER DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE PEDAL FREES UP ON ITS OWN AFTER A FEW DAYS BUT I HAVE TO DRIVE MUCH SLOWER AND START BRAKING EARLIER. I GOOGLED THE PROBLEM TO SEE IF THERE WERE OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND FOUND IT THAT THERE HAVE BEE. SEVERAL COMPLAINTS. I FOUND SOME INFORMATION CLAIMING THAT A PIN IN THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT IS TO BLAME BUT IM NOT SURE. AS STATED, I HAD THE CAR TO A MECHANIC SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY CANT SEEM TO PINPOINT A PROBLEM. *TR

LOSS OF BRAKING AFTER ABS EVENT. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND I HAD TO MAKE A SUDDEN STOP TO AVOID HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATED AND THEN THE BRAKES BECAME SPONGY AFTERWARDS. FROM THEN ON, EVEN THE REGULAR BRAKES WERE SPONGY AND WOULD NOT BUILD UP PRESSURE AFTER PUMPING MANUALLY. I CHECKED ON THE INTERNET AND THERE ARE YOUTUBE VIDEOS ON THE SUBJECT AND THERE ARE WEBSITES WITH THIS COMPLAINT. SEEMS TO BE WIDESPREAD. THERE IS ALSO A NHTSA DOCUMENT (ODI RESUME PE 16-017) ON THE SUBJECT. I TALKED TO A FORD DEALER, AND HE SAID THAT TO REPLACE THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT (HCU) WOULD COST ABOUT $2000. FORD HAS NOT ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) OR A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, SO THEY WON'T PAY FOR THE REPAIR. THE REGULAR BRAKES SHOULD WORK EVEN IN THE EVENT OF AN ABS SYSTEM FAILURE, BUT THIS IS NOT HAPPENING; THUS I CANNOT RELY ON MY BRAKES UNLESS THE ABS IS DISABLED. MAYBE I SHOULD PULL THE ABS FUSE.

HAVE HAD 2 INCIDENTS OF ABS ENGAGEMENT FOLLOWED BY LOSS OF BRAKES, WHERE PEDAL WENT DOWN TO THE FLOOR. FIRST TIME WAS IN FEBRUARY OF THIS YEAR. ROAD CONDITIONS WERE SLICK AND THE CAR SLID SLIGHTLY. ABS WAS ACTIVATED AND THEN THERE WAS LOSS OF BRAKES. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A LOCAL MECHANIC AND THE WHOLE BRAKE SYSTEM WAS INSPECTED. ALL THAT WAS FOUND WAS SOME AIR IN THE LINES AND BRAKE PRESSURE CAME BACK. ROTORS, PADS, CALIPERS, MASTER CYLINDER WERE FINE. SECOND INCIDENT HAPPENED AUGUST 5TH WHILE GOING ON VACATION. WAS ABOUT AN HOUR FROM HOME WHEN I SLOWED DOWN TO GO THROUGH A TOLL BOOTH. ROAD WAS WET AND I HIT A SLIGHT BUMP GOING THROUGH THE TOLL. AFTER I GOT THROUGH THE TOLL, BRAKE PEDAL SUNK TO THE FLOOR! I THEN EXITED THE TURNPIKE AND HEADED BACK HOME AND DROVE IT BACK AN HOUR WITH NO BRAKE PRESSURE. FORTUNATELY IT WAS EARLY MORNING AND TRAFFIC WASN'T HEAVY. I GOT HOME, SWITCHED ALL OF THE LUGGAGE INTO MY OTHER CAR AND I CALLED A FRIEND WHO WORKS ON CARS AND HE SAID I COULD DROP IT OFF AND HE WOULD LOOK AT IT WHILE WE WERE ON VACATION. WHILE HE HAD IT, THE BRAKE PRESSURE CAME BACK. BUT AGAIN ENTIRE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS INSPECTED AND NOTHING WRONG WAS FOUND. THERE HAS TO BE A GLITCH IN THE ABS. THE FIRST FIVE YEARS I HAD THE CAR, NOTHING LIKE THIS EVER HAPPENED. OTHER ON LINE POSTINGS I'VE READ DESCRIBE SIMILAR SITUATIONS HAPPENING WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS 60,000 OR MORE MILES ON IT. MY VEHICLE IS AT 60,000. FORD NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS! DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED BEFORE THEY TAKE ANY ACTION?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 FORD FUSION. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE ABS MALFUNCTIONED. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE BRAKE PEDAL EXTENDED APPROXIMATELY 3/4 OF THE WAY DOWN. THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD AS IF THE CONTACT HAD COME TO AN EMERGENCY STOP, BUT ONLY MINIMAL PRESSURE WAS APPLIED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE MALFUNCTION WAS INTERMITTENT. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 124,000.

WHEN I DRIVE IN THE RAIN OR WHEN I HIT A POT HOLE, MY ABS WILL KICK IN AND I LOSE ANY TYPE OF BREAKING ON MY CAR. THE BREAK PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF IM ON THE HIGHWAY OR THE STREET, AS SOON AS THE ABS KICKS IN I LOSE THE BREAK PEDAL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME AND MY SON.

VEHICLE BRAKES GET SPONGY AND LOSE POWER WHILE HAVING FOOT ON BRAKE AND GOING OVER MINOR BUMPS IN THE ROAD..MANY TIMES BRAKE PEDAL WILL GO TO THE FLOOR AFTER HITTING BUMPS..THIS HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE AND HAS OCCURRED AT VARIOUS SPEEDS...SEEMS TO HAVE STARTED AT ABOUT 85,000 MILES AND ABOVE..I FEEL THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED BEFORE THEY LOOK INTO IT.

THERE IS A MALFUNCTION WITH THE HYDROLIC CONTROL UNIT ANTI BRAKE SYSTEM. THE BRAKES ONLY WORK IF YOU PRESS THE PEDAL COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR. THE BRAKES DO NOT WORK WHEN PRESSED REGULARLY, THEY MUST BE PRESSED DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THIS CAUSES THE CAR TO NOT STOP WHEN YOU NEED IT TO, RESULTING IN INSTANCES WHERE ONE MIGHT GET INJURED IF NOT FIXED.

BRAKE PEDAL DROPS TO FLOOR AFTER HITTING A POTHOLE WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. NO BRAKE WARNING ILLUMINATED. THIS OCCURRED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE AT AN INTERSECTION.

HAD THE FIRST SNOW OF THE YEAR IN MICHIGAN. NORMAL DAY ON MY WAY INTO WORK, I CAME UP TO A STOP LIGHT AND APPLIED THE BRAKES AS USUAL. WHEN IN DID THIS MY ABS KICKED IN AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. AT THIS POINT I HAD NO BRAKES AND LUCKLY THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS IN THE INTERSECTION BECAUSE I BLEW RIGHT THROUGH IT. I THEN PUMPED THE BRAKES FRANTICALY, THEY SLOWLY STARTED TO COME BACK BUT WERE STILL VERY SOFT. THEY EVENTUALLY RETURNED TO NORMAL BUT THIS STILL REOCCURS EVERY TIME MY ABS TURNS ON. DID SOME RESEARCH AND COME TO FIND OUT IT IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE ABS HCU. FORD REALLY NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS. SOMEBODY IS GOING TO GET KILLED, VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL, MY BRAKES FAILED MY DAUGHTER AND ME SEVERAL TIMES I HAD THE BRAKES REPLACE THINKING THAT WAS THE PROBLEM BUT ON 11/07 /17 I WAS EXISTING OFF THE FREEWAY COMING TO THE RED LIGHT WITH THE BLESSINGS OF THE LORD THE LIGHT WAS YELLOW I BRAKED IT WOULDN'T STOP THE PERSON ON MY LEFT WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO TURN GREEN NOTICE I COULDN'T STOP THEY WAITED UNTIL I MADE MY LEFT TURN THAT WAS SCARY PLEASE TELL ME WHAT I SHOULD DO TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. [XXX] PLEASE DON'T WAIT UNTIL I HAVE AN ACCIDENT I WOULD LOOSE MY BRAKES AND THEY WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR PUMPING THEM DIDN'T HELP SO I WOULD DRIVE IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE WHEN APPROACHING A LIGHT OR A CAR I WOULD START PUMPING AND PRAY ALL THE WAY TO MY DESTINATION CITY STREET AND HIGHWAYS BEEN BLESSED SO FAR.

"HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT (HCU)" I WAS DRIVING HOME ONE MORNING FOLLOWING A TRUCK ON A TWO LANE ROAD AT 60MPH WHEN A PIECE OF FURNITURE FELL OFF THE TRUCK. I BRAKED AND SWERVED TO THE EDGE OF THE ROAD TO MISS THE CHAIR AND MY ABS CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY FELT ILIKE I COULDN'T STOP AND THE ABS WAS NOT HELPING. I FINALLY STOPPED AND WAS ABLE TO AVOID A COLLISION. LATER AT THE NEXT STOP LIGHT MY BRAKES WERE VERY SOFT AND BARELY WORKED. (PEDAL TO THE FLOOR) I BELIEVE THE HCU MALFUNCTIONED.

DRIVING OVER BUMPY ROADWAY AND APPLIED BRAKES. THEY WENT SOFT AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. REMAINED THAT WAY UNTIL THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF.

I WAS DRIVING AS NORMAL SLOWING TO CROSS RAILROAD TRACKS, DOING THIS CAUSED THE ABS TO ENGAGE BRIEFLY. BRAKING EACH TIME AFTERWARDS THE PEDAL WOULD GO ALMOST COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR BEFORE STOPPING. AFTER RESEARCHING IM CONFIDENT THAT IT'S A STUCK VALVE IN THE ABS MODULE.

AFTER A HARD STOP THE BRAKE PEDAL IS VERY SPONGY AND TRAVELS ALMOST TO THE FLOOR. IT HAS CREATED A NEED FOR INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE. I HAD TO TAKE IT TO THE MECHANIC WHO SAID IT IS AN ABS SYSTEM PROBLEM. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE ABS HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE FIRST WAS AT 44,000 MILES AND THE SECOND AT 102,000. IT IS A VERY COSTLY REPAIR AND COULD HAVE HAD DANGEROUS RESULTS DUE TO ITS FAILURE.

WHEN BRAKING ON UNEVEN SURFACES THE BRAKE GOES TO THE FLOOR AND DOESN'T STOP THE CAR PROPERLY. I NEED TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND PUMP THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GET IT WORKING AGAIN. I TRIED TO STOP WHEN APPROACHING A MAIN ROAD FROM A SIDE ROAD. THE MAIN ROAD WAS BEING RESURFACED AND WAS ABOUT 1" OR 2" LOWER THAN THE SIDE ROAD. AS THE FRONT TIRES WERE DROPPING DOWN THE TRANSITION FROM THE NORMAL ROAD TO THE LOWER ROAD I APPLIED THE BRAKE, THE BRAKE PEDAL HIT THE FLOOR OF THE CAR AND DID NOT BRAKE IN A NORMAL AMOUNT IF TIME OR SPACE. IT FELT LIKE THE BRAKE FAILED. I HAD TO HIT THE BRAKE NUMEROUS TIMES TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. THE WHEELS WERE NOT TURNED WHEN THE BRAKE FAILURE HAPPENED. THE BRAKE CONTINUED TO NOT WORK PROPERLY UNTIL I PUMPED IT UP AGAIN. THE BRAKE FAILURE HAPPENED NUMEROUS OTHER TIMES WHEN TRYING TO BRAKE WHEN GOING OVER POTHOLES AND OTHER UNEVEN SURFACES. THE WHEELS ARE ALWAYS STRAIGHT WHEN THE BRAKE FAILURES OCCUR. THE BRAKES SEEM TO FAIL EACH TIME THE FRONT WHEELS ARE GOING DOWN A BREAK IN THE ROAD. THE BRAKES CONTINUE TO NOT WORK CORRECTLY ON ALL SURFACES UNTIL I PUMP THEM UP AGAIN. MY MECHANIC DOES NOT KNOW THE CAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM HAS ALWAYS HAPPENED ON CLEAR, DRY ROADS.

ABS SYSTEM BYPASS STICKS WHEN ENGAUGED WHICH CAUSES BRAKE PEDAL TO GO TO FLOOR AFTER USE. HAPPENS ALOT IN WINTER ON ICE.

AFTER ABS ENGAGED, LOSS OF BRAKE FEEL AND AN INCREASE IN STOPPING DISTANCE. THE TOP INCH OF PEDAL TRAVEL FELT NORMAL FOLLOWED BY SEVERAL INCHES OF NO BRAKE "FEEL" UNTIL NEAR THE BOTTOM OF PEDAL TRAVEL WHERE BRAKING RESUMED. THIS OCCURS ONLY AFTER THE ABS ENGAGES AND LASTS FOR SEVERAL MINUTES TO SEVERAL DAYS AFTER. BRAKE LOSS RESULTED IN A NEAR COLLISION. ABS ENGAGING AFTER EVENT IS NOT AS EFFECTIVE AS INITIAL ABS EVENT RESULTING IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE WHILE ABS IS ENGAGING. THIS HAS OCCURED MULTIPLE TIMES WITH THE MOST RECENT EVENT HAPPENING ON 7/13/2017. ISSUE USUALLY RESOLVES A DAY OR TWO AFTER OCCURIMG BUT WILL REOCCUR IF ABS IS ENGAGED AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 FORD FUSION. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO APPLY THE BRAKES WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH OR MORE, THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED. THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO ALLOW FOR A SIGNIFICANT DECREASE IN SPEED DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE DISTANCE NEEDED BEFORE THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WHENEVER THE ROAD CONDITIONS WERE UNEVEN OR UNSTABLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE BRIARWOOD FORD DEALER WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE16017 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULICS); HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE DEALER REPLACED THE REAR AND FRONT BRAKES, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HCU FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT FAILURE....UPON BRAKING WHILE HITTING A POTHOLE, THE ABS KICKS ON, AND THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES MUSHY ALMOST TO FLOOR AND CAR DOESN'T STOP, ONLY HAPPENS AFTER ABS HAS BEEN ACTIVATED. OPERATES NORMAL AT ALL OTHER TIMES. FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND REFUSES TO RECALL OR PAY FOR THE FIX, CLEARLY NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED YET. UNRELIABLE BRAKING IS A BIG PROBLEM!!!

AFTER HARD BRAKING AND ABS ACTIVATION TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT WHILE HIGHWAY DRIVING, BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY SOFT. AFTER LATER STOPPING AND RESTARTING ENGINE (AND VERIFYING BRAKE FLUID LEVEL), PETAL IS STILL SOFT / INCONSISTENT. NEED TO PUMP BRAKES TO BUILD ENOUGH PRESSURE OT STOP. CONCERNED VALVES ON HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT IS STICKING, NOT ALLOWING FULL HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TO WHEEL CALIPERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 FORD FUSION. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE WOULD TRAVEL BEFORE COMING TO A STOP. THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO APPLY THE BRAKES IN ADVANCE IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,591. UPDATED 06/07/17*LJ *CN

WHEN MY ABS SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED MY BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND THE IT TAKES AN EXTENED PERIOD OF TIME TO RECOVER
