Whenever my wife complained about the brake pedal pulsating/vibrating, I told her thats normal because it's the ABS. She said it didn't do it all the time and the few times I drove her Explorer to find out what she was talking about it did not act up. I just recently bought me a vehicle she felt comfortable driving and I took her Explorer for a week. The ABS acted up during a normal stop and I completely went through a stop sign. I would like to add that we have only been notified of one recall on the Explorer and that was many years ago.

When driving at slow to moderate speeds, and attempting to brake normally, the ABS system activates partway into the braking sequence. Braking efficiency is drastically reduced, with braking distance significantly increased. This results in uncontrollable near collateral damage and personal injury. The situation is especially noticeable when navigating in parking lots where walking people and backing vehicles need to be avoided or when approaching vehicles stopped at traffic lights or breaking for crossing pedestrians.
