Moving very slowly downhill on a snow-covered driveway. Depressed brake pedal, but abs failed to engage. Brakes locked-up instantly, causing an approximately 200ft slide, hitting utility pole and guard rail. About one week later, brakes locked again (abs failed to engage), but i was ready for it and immediately let off and reapplied pressure. This time abs did engage. I have since tested the brakes on slick surfaces…

On two or three occasions the brakes were soft on slow speed stops at intersections. The experience can be described as a rolling stop. I had to really stomp on the brakes to get them to grab and/or come to a complete stop. Dealer examined the brakes an found nothing wrong. Brakes still don't feel normal like other cars; they seem ok, but below average. I'm still very concerned over the braking ability on my 2007…
