    My 2009 Pkg 6 just started having VERY touchy brakes last night. It's almost as if there is a point where the brakes just lock up instead of a gradual regen, then gradual braking. My wife has been the primary driver for the last few days and she said the traction control light flashes briefly for yesterday but the brakes seemed fine until I drove it last night.

    Does anyone have any ideas? I'm very car savy (I just replaced the fuel pump in my Explorer) so I would like to try to keep it out of the dealer if possible.

    Thanks guys.
