SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DRUM
GENTLEMEN, I AM NOT SURE WHAT CONSTITUTES A SAFETY HAZARD, BUT I AM HAVING TO PUT ON MY FIFTH SET OF FRONT BRAKES AS THE CURRENT ONES ARE NOW WORN THIN, CHATTER, AND SQUEAL. THIS IS A FAMILIAR PATTERN OF EXCESSIVE WEAR. I HAVE EVEN HAD THE ABS CHATTER ON ME WHEN GOING OVER A ROUGH SECTION OF PAVEMENT - BOTH DURING BREAKING AND IMMEDIATLY AFTER BRAKING. SCARY. IT SEEMS UNREASONABLE TO ME THAT I SHOULD BE GOING THROUGH FRONT BRAKES EVERY 18,000 MILES! AND THEY FREQUENTLY MAKE FUNNY NOISES!

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
THE DESCRIPTION OF THE ABS BRAKE FAILURE IN THE WASHINGTON POST ARTICLE ON JULY 22, 1999 IS AN EXACT DESCRIPTION OF THE CAUSE OF AN ACCIDENT I HAD IN FEBRUARY, 1999. I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 10 MPH AND APPLIED THE BRAKES. I WAS UNABLE TO STOP BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW HARD I PUSHED THE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ROLL AND BUMPED INTO THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME, DAMAGING MY BUMPER. I HAD THE DEALER REPLACE THE BUMPER AND CHECK THE BRAKES. THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE ABS BRAKE SYSTEM.
