We got a foot of snow the other day. When I left for work that morning at 0600 I got my car full of slush and snow, and I am sure the wheel wells were packed with the stuff. Parked at work and by 1400 my car was plowed in and burried in snow. So it took 10 minutes to sneak outta my spot with the help from someone,but I managed to take a side street home at 35 mph.

Later today I took the freeway 10 miles to my parents house, and as I got to about 50 MPH my car started to shake ..... and I mean violently! The faster the worse it was, slowed down to about 45 and you could not feel anything. It was in the front wheels only. I thought it was snow or something packed in there that was froze from during the day, Went to a wash and cleaned everthing out.

Went back on the freeway and at 50 mph everything was normal. Got to about 60 and I could feel the shaking again, not as bad but I could feel it. The faster the worse it was, and after about 2 miles on the freeway the ABS light went on?

Pakrked the car and went to put the ebrake on and it was like it was not there. I had to pull it up all the way in order to engauge it? I stoped the car and restarted it and the ABS light was off. Any ideas on what the fudge happened? I hate ABS and I want to figure out if I should go to the dealer as I am still under warranty.

I think I just found your problem... :lol:

On a serious note, you might want to have suspension pieces checked. If I were you, I'd take it to a dealership, since it's only a 2003 it should be warranty fix.

Yea right!
No, this car has had no issue to date unlike every other car I've owned (Ford/Mecury, VW, Dodge, GM/Chevy/Pontiac, and Nissan.

No, the problem went away while sitting in the somewhat warm garage, so ice may have got caught somewhere it should not have been. Everything is fine now, so I guess case closed:)
