Dt*: the contact stated while driving at 20 MPH, the ABS engages. The ABS normally engaged when going over slight bumps in the road and coming to a stop sign. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection. The dealer replaced the brake shoes, pads and rotors on the front and rear of the vehicle. However, this did not remedy the ABS engaging.
