My 2002 Legacy outback station wagon's ABS brakinIg system is giving me problems. I warm my car up for about 10 minutes, but when I take off the brakes are hard and when I step on them I hear and feel them "chattering". I go down a driveway and . it's like I don't have any brakes. I keep on pumping them repeatedly or step on them without pumping them. I even tried pulling up on the emergency brake to stop the car but keep going out into the road - and I pray to God that I don't get hit.
After stepping on the brakes repeatedly, finally they will function. But I feel that this is not safe. My VIN # on my car wasn't one that was recalled for master brake cylinder problems. I have plenty of brake fluid in the car also. Can my ABS system be disconnected or what could be the problem. Please let me know. Thanks for your help.
