The problem I have had is that the ABS controls and valves are mounted under the battery and acid has eaten the brake lines and ABS valves. Luckily it failed in the parking lot and not on the road my 16 year old daughter was driving with my wife at the time of the failure. This could have been a deadly scenario!
