Summary of Complaint
WHILE TRYING TO COME TO A STOP UPON ENTERING A PARKING SPOT IN FRONT OF A COUNTY HEALTH BLDG. THE BRAKE PEDAL ON MY TRUCK DID NOT RESPOND. THE PEDAL WENT HARD AND THE TRUCK CONTINUED FORWARD, I APPLIED THE BRAKE AGAIN WITH THE SAME RESULTS CAUSING THE TRUCK TO STRIKE THE BUILDING AND DESTROY A SERVICE ENTERANCE DOOR. I ESTIMATE MY SPEED TO HAVE BEEN UNDER 5 MPH SINCE THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. I BELIEVE THIS IS THE RESULT OF A DEFFECTIVE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SENSOR. AS OF TODAY I HAVE NOT BEEN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE FAILURE FIXED.
