Braking problem - malfunctioning ABS

travisjb

Had forgotten about the C&D incident until you mentioned it... you must be right - ABS icing.

If there had been a wall nearby yesterday my car would have been toast. If I remember correctly, the car resisted my steering inputs when it went into icing mode, which made the whole process tremendously difficult and frankly dangerous. I wonder if Nissan intended for the car to stop responding to driver steering inputs in this mode? If they did so deliberately, I think they have a serious liability that will eventually catch up with them and unfortunately some poor driver(s).

Re threshold braking, it is only a solution for a select few drivers. I've driven karts and formula cars like this but for a TT car that I'm pushing to the absolute limit, I like the idea of having ABS to fall back upon. I'd much prefer a real fix to this issue vs disabling.
