What owners report

Verbatim reports filed with NHTSA, lightly edited for readability and with personal information removed.

“Antilock brakes activate at very low speeds such as the last couple of feet before coming to a stop. This occurs on dry pavement with no skidding whatsoever. This increases stoping distances and I feel taha it could result in a crash.”
