I panicked when I slammed on the brakes, but the brakes didn’t slow me down much and the brakes squealed strangely. But luckily I’m slow and can handle it. Right after that, I called someone to come and check my brakes for damage. The mechanic told me that my car had a problem with the anti-lock braking system. My ABS braking system was flickering. The car dashboard indicates a system malfunction.
He said he was lucky to have spotted it in time and taken it in for repairs soon.

In reply to David Stewart. What brake pads did you put on there? Is there any chance the torque of the pads could be overwhelming the tires you have on the vehicle? Old, hard tires could do this, or really aggressive pads with a lot of bite.

Changed disc, pads. Rebuilt calipers pistons. Replaced boots etc. Still lock after applying brakes under normal conditions. Fluid changed. Fexi and brake lines all OK. Completely bewildered. It’s like brake fluid pressure only builds up ie stiff pedal. But isn’t easing off after easing off on pedal. Appreciate suggestion.
