 Anti-lock brake pressure failure. all pressure in braking system failed during normal driving conditions. had to pump brakes several times and apply emergency brake to slow vehicle to stop. i checked msn website for used car research info and it stated that failure to anti-lock brake pressure switch on 1991 acura legend is a common problem on this vehicle. i believe this is a very dangerous problem. if someone is too close to another vehicle then attempts to stop and has no pressure in there braking system serious injury could occur. i also noticed a significant problem with the vehicle speed sensor on the msn website. my vehicle also has that problem which i have a scheduled appointment for on 08/04/2003. *ph

 The anti-lock brake system failed, causing by wife to skid into a traffic sign. headlights when turned on the high beam will not go off unless you turn off the car and turn the lights off. also, the car idles extremely fast and jumps out of park frequently and the air conditioning system will not hold freon due to a leak. *ak
