ABS applied brakes with car in cruise control at 65 mph, than brakes were applied to right front which caused the car to pull to the right, left front brakes were applied which caused the car to pull to the left, also lost brake power where you had to really get on the brakes to get the car to stop like the car had no power brakes at all, car right now sets in the driveway as my wife drives the cars and I feel it is a matter of time before this car is involved in a serious crash and I feel it is to dangerous to allow my family to be in the car.

While driving my car I applied the brakes and the pedal went to the floor. I had to pump the brakes to stop. I took it to my mechanic who found that the brake line had worn through. It cost me about $81 to have repaired.
