ABS Kicking on Unnecessarily Hey guys, my ABS has been kicking on when taking turns and applying brakes. Even at low speed turns like turning into a parking lot, the ABS kicks in. After this happens the brake light comes on and stays on for several minutes.
Background on Brakes: My car just turned 100,000 miles and I'm still using the stock calipers. I installed rotors and pads at 68,000 miles (Powerslots w/Hawk HPS) and of course they are slightly warped now. Is it possible that my warped rotors are causing the ABS to kick in unnecessarily or do I finally need to get new calipers?

Repairing ABS can be costly...unless you feel you absolutely need it, you can delete it.
In my opinion, it is more of a hindrance vs. help...that is why we created the ABS delete kits for the folks whom want to save weight, space and eliminate further complications ABS creates...especially with drag racing and using different sized tires.
