What they didn't say was Mercedes invented ABS in 1970 and many other "standard" items in cars today.

my abs locks out my back brakes and only brakes on front brakes ,it's been bleed for air 2 times. it only lets me brake with back brakes after its almost completly stopped. it's a problem with braking on ice. explain that.

@LethalJizzle From what you said I'm pretty sure you never drive before (underage), or never been into that situation. Trust me if its wet out there, driving at 45 miles an hour, notice a car coming out of an intersection 30 feet from you, your reflex is to HIT HARD on the brake. The brake will work for a few feet then it will let go and you are SKIDDING straight into the car. Thats when you lock your wheels. No, you wont go sideway with no ABS. You will only slide straight forward.
