| Anti- lock brakes are not operating correctly on wet pavement. upon depressing the brake pedal, anti- lock sensors activate, causing the brake pedal to become very hard, and resulting in extended stopping distance. consumer has contacted dealer, dealer unable to determine the cause. please provide any further details. *ak | |||

| While driving my suv i heard a loud bang, inmediatelly after that, the suv turned abruptly to the right. i tried to maintain on my lane but it was useless. the vehicle kept turning right. i pressed the brakes, and then the vehicle skidded on the wet pavement slamming the vehicle against the bridges wall. the vehicle hit against the wall with the rear right side of it. then it slowed down. there were no flat tires. the rear axle shifted to the left due to the crash. other parts where damaged. i guess the crash was due to the front right lower control arm because it was loose and broken. i had no problems before with this vehicle. it did not gave any signs of wear, neither made strange sounds so one could take it for a preventive check. this vehicle (nissan pathfinder 2000) is only 2 years old!!!*ak | |||
