Its not safe and i don't know what's wrong with it! My research shows…

1. My abs and traction control light come on almost everytime i drive the car.

Luckily my…

I strongly believe my airbags should…

I heard a thumping noise from what felt like under my feet. I then tried to push on the brakes, only having the pedal give a great amount of resistance with loud abs noises. It will continue doing this until both my traction control light and abs light come on. I had my brakes checked and they said everything was good. And of course it was out of my 50000 mile warranty. I still drive cautiously and try to get the…
