I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY ANTILOCKING BRAKING SYSTEM. AT LOW SPEEDS THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE AND THE BRAKING IS UNEVEN; MEANING IT IS NOT SMOOTH, BUT JERKY. THIS SITUATION DOES NOT OCCUR AT HIGHER SPEEDS. AFTER THIS SITUATION THE ANTILOCKING BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON AND I DO NOT HAVE THE PROBLEM.

THERE IS A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES AT THE PRESENT TIME BUT WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR THE NECESSARY REPAIR THEY TOLD ME THE VIN # WAS NOT ON THEIR LIST.
