My wife was driving on I-5 on our 1998 toyota sienna van, when the brakes got locked-up and we started skidding. The vehicle went out of control and swerved to to the median and collided with the cable divider. We all survivived because of the cable, the van is still in body shop. I am worried about the safety of its brake system and the related parts.
While driving 5 MPH ABS engaged. This caused the consumer to have extended stopping distance when the brake pedal was depressed. Dealership was notified, but did not resolve the problem.
