The vehicle has a "heavy" pull to one side, and only when you "slam" on the brakes and the ABS kicks-in. After bringing in to the dealer, I have had the front brake lines replaced. After additional complaints for the same problem they changed the calipers, rotors and brake lines. I still have the same complaint and problem after spending close to three thousand dollars.
