So I hit a guardrail with the passenger side of the '22 Powerboost FX4 (In 2H), and after first contact, the brakes failed to respond, resulting in the truck proceeding to drive through an additional 20-30 feet or so of guardrail (and 3-4 cedar posts) beyond what I felt like it could have stopped within. The initial impact ripped the front passenger wheel clean off, so that was certainly part of it, but my question for you guys: Is the braking system of the truck vulnerable to failing to deliver braking power in a situation like this?
I'm not an expert, but have gotten used to losing some braking control with ABS over the years, and knowing these are even more complex brakes, with the regen and other traction control systems, thought I would ask. If there are scenarios when braking could be unpredictable, I'd like to know and familiarize myself with them.
thx in advance for any knowledge...
