SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
WHILE DRIVING, I WOULD COME UP TO A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT AND APPLY THE BRAKES AND THE LEFT REAR BRAKE WOULD LOCK UP. I TOOK IT IN AND THEY LOOKED AT THE BRAKES AND SAID THEY WERE OK. I WENT TO LEAVE AND IT DID IT AGAIN. I WENT BACK IN AND TOLD THEM THAT THEY WERE STILL DOING IT AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS NORMAL FOR THE ABS TO DO THAT. I WENT BACK THE NEXT DAY AND THEY ADJUSTED THE BRAKES AND NOW THEY DO WHAT THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO DO. IT COULD BE POSSIBLE THAT ONE OF THE SELF ADJUSTERS MIGHT NOT BE WORKING. *AK
