(total cost of repairs: $1,000) 09/2001 the car operated fine for almost six months. notice that at around the 60 mph range, vibration starts to occur. appears to be the early symptoms of the abs starting to function without depressing brakes (again). imo problem is the abs starting to function by itself. problem stopped *

When the brake pedal is applied in an emergency situation, it goes to the floor and causes a rumble, before it comes to a complete stop. dealer has been contacted.
