The ABS has been faulty since the day I purchased the vehicle. I have presented the vehicle to different maintenance/dealers on different occasions, to no avail. Finally, I had an accident at an intersection, whereby I had made a complete stop, but upon proceeding, my brakes were not operating and I was cited for "failure to yield". The results were three automobiles damaged for over $6,000.
