“I was driving hwy 80 the traction control malfunction light came on and in a split second I lost control of vehicle. I started to skid toward wall dividers and quickly braked. Then the brakes locked up causing me to crash on to the divided. This vehicle was purchased with anti lock brakes. This was definitely a Bmw malfunction!”
