So I was driving yesterday and I almost rear ended someone because my brakes locked... Thank God I know how to drive lol

I didn't get a chance to pump the brake pedal because of the distance between us.

This was a problem in the winter and I figured that it was because of the snow and what not, but wtf is going on now? There was light rain and it locked....

Just wondering if anyone had any problems with their brakes or if I should even get this looked at?

 

What speed were you going?

 

Between 40 and 60... definitely no more than 60... it was a residential area coming up to a stop sign

 

Okay, you might want to have them checked out. They should have worked. I was asking because when going really slow (almost stopped) they won't work. But if you were going at a decent speed, they should have worked.

 

I have a seen a GTS with the OEM tires moving only 40kmph unable to stop, it kept sliding and sliding and sliding and until it tapped the bumper of a car in front of it. If you have good or even decent tires. the rubber should do most of the work of stopping for you.

If you have a scan tool, i would get it looked at and see if there is a soft code stored. if your braking system is tripping out, there would be a record of it in your cars mem.

 

Thanks guys I'll definitely look into it...

Soul, you think Maple Mistu would overlook the fact that I have mods and still help me out? lol
