I first thought that something had slipped under the brake peddle. Not true. The brake peddle feels like a rock, will not depress at all. If I pump the brakes, I can regain braking power. Since it is ABS, have trained myself not to pump. Luckily, it only happens on rare occasions and only when going very slow. Mechanic said I could replace the tires or disable the ABS system. He figured that the ABS was kicking in. My 4 snow tires still had legal tread, so I pulled the fuse. It won't pass inspection this way, but that is a ways off. Not convinced that this will solve the problem.
