<p>If you have a Scion tC, you might want to be aware that you might just have faulty mechanics in your braking system, mainly, ABS and the EBD. I'm winking and nudging because i cannot say much more, but i value the lives of my fellow R&F buddy's. Please if you have this vehicle, mind your braking, and test that ABS in a safe place.</p><p><font size="1"><em><strong>*speeding was not a culprit.</strong></em></font></p>
uh oh. Skellington started another thread about cars....
