    Default I hate Comcast

    So i was going home down 140/Arnold Mill Rd and a Comcast cherry picker turned out in front of me going the opposite way. I guess the fucker wasnt ever told what side of the road was his b/c he started playing chicken coming at me head on in my lane. I ended up locking my brakes up and slid about 10 ft off the road. The truck actually came off the ground on the drivers side when he finally made it back to his side of the road. Well when I locked up the breaks and started sliding something in the rear of my car maded a popping noice and when I tried to move down the street my car just kept jerking to the right as I tried to drive.

    I called comcast b/c I didnt get a number off of the truck b/c i could only see the front of it and they said they would get back to me with the truck number and what they are going to do about the situation and my car is going on a lift tomorrow at work to find out whats wrong with it....

    Yea ABS if locked does pop to release and then re-tighten...well at least on my RSX it does. It might just be that the ABS in one of the rear wheels locked in place therefore braking on that one wheel and causing it to pull to one side. Locking wheels up does also mess up the alignment as to which side you were turning the wheel when you locked it.

    yeah, they do.
    I bought a CV axle and found out that 99-00 models do have abs( i;ve always been told they don't)



    but from what it sounds like, if its jerking to a certain direction, you have have something wrong with your tie rod, mine would jerk and when i examined my breaks and everything, i had a loose screw that would tighten my tie rod, in your case, you have broke it
    Either way, make sure comcast picks up tha bill


    oh yeah, tie rods run about 30 sum odd dollars, i bought one just in case it wasnt my screw, this was about 3 months ago though
