VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED OF 30 TO 50 MILES AN HOUR SUDDENLY HAS SINGLE WHEELED FRONT BREAKING ON LEFT WHEEL OR RIGHT WHEEL ALL OF A SUDDEN. TENDS TO FEEL LIKE WHAT THE BRAKING SYSTEM DOES DURING THE ACTIVATION OF THE VEHICLE SKID CONTROL SYSTEM WHILE DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES IN WINTER LIGHT CONDITIONS. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PUT INTO REVERSE AFTER FIRST STARTING ENGINE, SHIFTING INTO REVERSE AND BACKING UP SHORT DISTANCE. THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE DOES IT WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS OF 30 TO 50 MILES AN HOUR IS QUITE DANGEROUS DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT HAPPENS ALL THE SUDDEN AND DRY PAYMENT. THIS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEED'S IN TRAFFIC WITH US COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT THOUGH I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OVER.
