Antilock brakes are the latest and safer brake systems used on a lot of newer cars. These systems pulsate the brakes on and off in the event of the brakes being applied too hard. There are sensors on the wheels that tell a computer how fast each wheel is going and if one wheel was to suddenly stop, the ABS system will kick in and pulsate the brakes for a safer stop. Some cars have traction control that will also help you regain control of the vehicle by slowing the engine while applying the ABS.

You will know you have an Antilock brake problem by the warning light on your dash. Before starting your car, notice that the antilock, traction control,ESC and/or brake lamps light up as a self check until the vehicle is started (most makes). If the light comes on and stays on after the vehicle is running this means there is a fault and you need to bring it in to have it checked.
