March 1996 CrashInjury

I have multiple complaints on this vehicle. Was bought as a used vehicle, past owner claims his daughter drove it to and from college. It is an ABS car with the 2.3 4 cylinder, auto trans, FWD se. The ABS system is messed up and when you try to stop the tires lock-up on you, the car will slide especially if the roads are wet and this is at a speed of not more than 15 MPH. Luckily we have avoided several accidents, but there is going to come a time we aren't that lucky.
