When applying ABS brakes system locked up, resulting in a collision in which vehicle hit a guardrail, became airborne, and air bags did not deploy. This vehicle after being airborne, hit a fenced lot and damaged the head lamp.

Accelerator does not give power from stop position unless the pedal is floor boarded. It will then creep up to desired speed. Brake light comes on as well as engine light. The cause has been undetected by the dealership. The prblem may last a day, maybe more maybe less, and then correct itself. You have no warning as to when this will happen. It starts from the stop position everytime but once. That time I was driving in traffic when it would not accelerate
