Anti-lock brake pressure failure. All pressure in braking system failed during normal driving conditions. Had to pump brakes several times and apply emergency brake to slow vehicle to stop. I checked msn website for used car research info and it stated that failure to anti-lock brake pressure switch on 1991 acura legend is a common problem on this vehicle. I believe this is a very dangerous problem. If someone is too close to another vehicle then attempts to stop and has no pressure in there braking system serious injury could occur. I also noticed a significant problem with the vehicle speed sensor on the msn website. My vehicle also has that problem which i have a scheduled appointment for on 08/04/2003. *ph
