Sounds like your ABS wasn't working properly. I had an experience in upstate New York with my 91 Mistubishi (with ABS). I was traveling about 50 MPH on slush (combination of ice, water, dirt, etc. fo

That's exactly what happened to me. I had the brakes hard on and it felt like nothing was happening, not vibration under the pedal, nothing. I had time to lift off the pedal and hit it again a couple

Funny you should mention this. Nearly the same experience the other day with my 91 Saab 9000 with ABS. Only difference was a truck entering traffic, causing the car in front of me to slam on brakes.
