SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
WHEN STOPPING QUICKLY, BUT NOT IN A PANIC. THE ABS BRAKE SYSTEM WILL SOMETIMES BRAKE AND RELEASE. WHEN THE BRAKES ARE NO WHERE NEAR LOCKUP. THIS HAS CAUSED THE ME TO COME CLOSE TO REAR ENDING A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SLIGHTLY FASTER STOP THAN NORMAL, BUT NO WHERE CLOSE TO CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I WOULD PREFER NO ABS SYSTEM IF THIS SYSTEM ON THE DURANGO IS NORMAL. NO ACCIDENTS FOR OVER 30 YEARS, BUT TWO CLOSE CALLS WITH THIS VEHICLE. I KNOW THIS IS NOT NORMAL FOR NORMAL ABS BRAKES. DEALER FOUND NO PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES. DT
