    Abs brakes fail to stop the vehicle as advertised if any type of road surfaces, other than perfectly smooth, are encountered during the braking process. This is true for chevrolet trucks as well as dodge pickups. I have friends who have these two brands and they have had the same problem with stopping on even slightly rough road surfaces. Have you received any other complaints like this? Thanks in advance, [xxx].…
