SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
3 TIMES IN SAME APPLIED BRAKES HARD TO STOP, BRAKE PEDAL SOFT, TRUCK DID NOT STOP VERY FAST. ON THE 3RD TIME, I HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE TRUCK SHOULD HAVE STOPPED IN TIME BEFORE HITTING THE VEHICLE. HAVE TO PUSH EXTREMELY HARD ON PEDAL, BUT TRUCK STILL DOES NOT STOP FAST ENOUGH. ROADS WERE DRY. I FEEL THE ABS BRAKES DO NOT STOP FAST ENOUGH IN AN EMERGENCY STOP.*AK
