Calipers lock up, even going 10 mph. This is after 1 month of replacing part of the brake line and the caliper. The brake system sensor seems to be faulty as the car never tells you that you have an issue.

Front passenger side brake system catches and the entire car shakes once you have gotten to 75 mph. No code appears, and it isn’t breaks, line, or caliper. It seems to be a faulty abs module.

Vehicle basically activates Traction control System while going 70 to 85 on highway. Basically feels like you hit a decent sized bump. Then the car activates downhill brake control which limits the RPMs of the vehicle. The TCS and DBC lights remain on requiring you to pull over. Once the engine is restart the lights disappear for the time being until is occurs on the highway again. Happened 4 times in one day. Didn't happen when the car shop drove it... about to go to the dealership...who probably knows less.
