Kia Spectra Brakes - Rear Wheels Lock Up

martinglass · 11-30-2004, 03:58 AM

Hi,

I have a 2004 Kia Spectra GS hatch 1.8. It has ABS, EBD.

When braking in an emergency, the left rear wheel of my car locks up. This is quite scary, especially if you're negotiating a bend at the time!

Has anyone else experienced anything similar?

cheers
Martin

Sounds to me like the wheel speed sensor on that wheel might need to be checked out.
