Brake Lock?

[davidald]

Hi all, I could not find anything about this using search.

When I am travelling at speed, say 80+, if I apply the brakes the brake pedal suddenly jams and the car pulls a bit. This only happens for a fraction of a second then rights itself. Rear brake hoses were replaced two years ago as paert of Fords "not a recall"

I am wondering a faulty valve or sticky piston?

Any guesses?

I had the same problem with a saab 9000 turbo. I pt my foot on the brake and it would pull to the left.

I found it was a ceased brake piston. So I would think you have the same problem!!

Yes except the brake pedal locks. I think its an ABS problem.

Whatever it is you should have this fixed ASAP. On the brakes to avoid a prang and you just might cause one.

Something is stopping the pads from returning on one side causing the car to pull to that side.

It is the ABS, dang.
