Vehicle: 2009 Pontiac Vibe GT 2.4 L4 GAS
System Operation
The Lucas/Sumitomo system is a hybrid non-integral Anti-lock Braking System (ABS). The system uses a single valve per channel, 4 channel system to reduce the tendency of any wheel to lock-up. ABS operation is available from approximately 4 mph to maximum vehicle speed. During braking, ABS is available from maximum vehicle speed to 3 mph. ABS is used to minimize wheel slipping during braking, allowing for improved vehicle stability and steerability. ABS is accomplished by controlling the hydraulic pressure applied to each front wheel brake and both rear wheel brakes a...

Vehicle: 2009 Pontiac Vibe 2.4 L4 GAS
Front & Rear Split System
When the brake pedal is depressed, both the primary (front brake) and the secondary (rear brake) master cylinder pistons are moved simultaneously to exert hydraulic fluid pressure on their respective systems.
If the rear brake system fails, initial brake pedal movement will cause the unrestricted secondary piston to bottom in the master cylinder bore. Primary piston movement will displace hydraulic fluid in the primary section of the master cylinder to actuate the front brake system.
