ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
On each occasion when I have applied the brakes vigorously enough to cause the ABS braking assistance funtion to be activated. The brakes remain fully engaged after brake pedal pressure has been removed. The vehicle can then be moved only by turning off the ignition and restarting the car, which resets the ABS controller. Complete loss of maneuvarability accompanies ABS engagement.
When coming to a stop or under 5mph begins to release the pedal, the ABS catches and kicks the brake pedal back out, jolting the vehicle. If it's wet and braking, the vehicle would slide. The ABS light comes on, vehicle works fine. Abs light goes off vehicle, there are problems.
