Roar?? Are you reading my post? Mine doesn't roar it just doesn't seem
to be strong enough to stop the wheels rotating. I've stood on the
brakes as strong as I could and I still can't get it to lock up the
front tires. I don't have the 4 wheel ABS so it should do that.
Talked to the dealership today and they are baffled as well. I'll take
it in next week and see what they can do.
