Exclamation abs light

The abs light in the dash stays on after it makes a vibrating noise. Then the car is hard to stop, like there is no pressure in the lines.

I would say take your car to the dealer immediately! You may have a bad speed sensor or other major ABS component malfunction.

I would have the dealership flatbed tow the car at their expense or if dealership want to assume the liability of trying to drive the car to the dealership with the brakes acting like there is no pressure in the line.

I would stop driving the car until this is fixed. For me, it is not worth an accident in trying to get the car to the dealership. All it takes is someone pulling out in front of you or the car in front of you hitting their brakes hard.

I doubt you are going to be able to emergency stop your car in its current condition. I would have the dealership flatbed tow the car and get you a loaner car while they work on your car.

Call roadside assistance immediately. You didn't get 4 years of that for nothing. Get them checked out.
