big braking problems
 
whatsup guys..well on the way to school this morning almost got into three accidents because of my brakes.the red BRAKE light ( the one that comes on when the parking brake is pulled) is always on and then when i try to brake...the LOW TRACTION light flickers and i lose my brakes for a second...then on the way home the ABS INOP came on and stayed on....im hoping this is nothing big..any ideas?

How's the pedal? How's the fluid?

Do yourself a HUGE favor and get to a place like Goodyear/ Sears/ Midas and have them look at your brakes for FREE, before you kill someone. You stated you ALMOST got into THREE accidents. What will it take, a FORTH:rofl: to really total yourself and maybe someones family? Don't screw around with asking questions and guessing about what might be wrong and go somewhere dependable and have it checked out tomorrow!

It sounds like you are low on fluid. That light comes on when a sensor in the master cyl gets uncovered.

if there is fliud in there then your master cylinder is shot anyway you should not be driving the car if you do not know whats wrong with it ... not worth getting into an accident
