my brakes do that when the abs is kicking in. the pedal kinda vibrates/crunches sorta. Freaked me out the first time.

Adam, some of these cars have a ground behind the driver kick panel that seems to be problematic for some. I don't know if it could be an issue for you but figured I'd throw the idea out so someone else could say yes or no.

Good luck.

I can think of 2 occasions when my ABS saved my car from getting totalled. I got caught in a bit of snow last week, going down a slight hill in 2nd gear with my foot off the gas, the rear tires started to slide (from engine brake) and the car went sideways. So I put it in neutral and with the ABS i was able to steer it straight again. If my brakes would have locked-up I sure as hell would have ended-up backwards and would have deffinetly hit 2 or 3 cars at the bottom of the hill. The other time I was coming out of a gas station and there was a bit of ice at the end, and my ABS kicked-in. I would have slid into lots of oncomming traffic should my wheels have locked-up.
Anyways, don't pull the fuse. Sounds like its working like it should.
