| 1) since i bought the car in 2005 (new), periodically the anti-lock brake system kicks in for no apparent reason (while i am braking, of course). 2) under the above situation, as well as at other times when the antilock brakes kick in, i cannot get the abs to disengage no matter what i do, until the car has reached a complete stop. 3) intermittently, the antilock brake system, when it kicks in, the car will take an exceedingly long, very very exceedingly long time to stop. very exceeding long. at almost all these times, i was already going very slowly toward a stop sign, stoplight or approaching an intersection to turn. it seems that the wheels lock up and the car just slides. as a result of #3, i have run innumerable stop signs, a few stop lights, the other night i almost hit a car head on, missed the turnoff to my street by almost 200 feet, missed my driveway by about 100 feet. this was on snowy, wet slushy roads. but, i will tell you when approaching the intersections and turns, i could not have been going slower without being at almost a dead standstill. it is very fortunate that in each case there was no accident. but, the dealership tells me that is the way the abs system works, there is nothing wrong with it and nevertheless they cannot reproduce the problem. has anyone else reported this problem? i have contacted honda corporation, checked for bulletins, etc. and i find nothing. i do not believe antilock brakes are supposed to work like this. *tr | |||
