My brakes seem to be working fine, but they have not really been tested on a slick surface where traction is an issue. I just got this car 3000 miles ago and all my previous vehicles did not have ABS brakes. Anybody have a clue what the likely suspect is?

I then went to the front of the car and opened fuse box to see it it was blown and seen a coating on tongs cleaned plugged back in and no problem since last year. Cost of repair "$0.00.

My '95 Regal has had lights on all over the dash. It was a sensor that needed to be replaced...not too bad on the price to fix either...about $65.00.
