I had a weird thing happen to me tonight, I had to hit the brakes hard, and right before the ABS kicked in (first time it kicked in since I have had the car) It felt like there was a little hop/skid/squeal from on of the front tires right before the ABS kicked in. Once the abs kicked in, the hop/skip/squeal stopped.

When I got into my neighborhood, I did a quick stop from 25 mph and was able to reproduce the issue. It felt like the right front tire did a little hop/squeal and then the ABS kicked in.

Is that normal behavior? Was my right front tire locking up first, which triggered the ABS activation? And the hop was when the tire released to break out of the skid?

I tried to do some searching but I think terms like ABS and hop are too common.

Both times the car stayed perfectly straight with no tendency to pull to either side.

Does anybody know what may be the cause? Has this ever happened to them?

2000 S with 6 speed and Traction control. No lights came on the dash during the ABS activations.

Thanks!
