Both front brakes locked up, mechanic said need replace calipers and he has never seen both go out at same time. Also the abs light won't go off. The vehicle started shaking out of control, after stopped and checked the rotors were extremely hot, they turned blue from the heat.

Abs and traction control light goes on and off as i am driving. Sometimes, the speedometer moves quickly over the incorrect speeds so i have no clue what speed i am going. It's only a four year old car with 56,000 miles. Also, same vehicle has issue with the gas tank door. Cannot open using the switch inside the car. Must use the emergency pull inside a trunk compartment.
