Buick & GMC Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Service in Kansas City

Every modern vehicle has an Antilock Brake System (ABS) that prevents the brakes from locking while helping the vehicle retain traction with the road. Anti-Lock Brakes are considered a significant safety feature for all vehicles because drivers often slam on the brakes and cause brakes to lock up and the vehicle to lose control. Some of our customers might remember the days before anti-lock brakes on every vehicle whereby the brake system would lock up and the car would start to skip. The ABS is also called an electronic stability control system that releases the brakes quickly to allow the vehicle to remain in control. The ABS does this exceptionally fast and is only noticeable as a pulsation in the brake pedal when active. At Cable Dahmer Buick GMC of Kansas City, we provide an anti-lock brake system service for when your system might not be working properly.
