Hi I bought an 2004 Acura RSX. When there is snow on the road and I press the brake peddle the abs makes a loud noise and pushs the peddle back up and the car keeps moving like im not pushing the brakes at all. Usually the abs keeps the tires rotating to help stop the car rather then sliding but this car keeps moving and tires are rotating.

The loud grinding noise may be due to worn pads or brake shoes. I suggest you have all brakes on the vehicle inspected for worn pads, shoes, and possibly worn rotors. The ABS light may indicate uneven brake functioning, so for safty sake, have the brake system checked out.
This is a classic ABS problem. Either the pump or the ABS controller. But as it is causing the brake pedal to push back you should get it seen by a qualified mechanic and DON'T drive it until it is fixed.
Same as above, but balljoints and tierod ends can bang when brakes are tightened or released. Loose brake caliper or sticking brake caliper. Sometimes motor mounts can be affected by brake action.
I would definitely have the brakes checked out by a brake specialist to see what is the matter. Loud noises on release are never good. The locking up the brakes should not occur mechanically or in conjunction with the AntiLock Braking system.
Check for codes in the ABS braking system, as well.
Its the abs sensor, if you encounter an ice patch or snow you won't even be able to stop because the pedal will will push back and make the rip grind noise. If you pull the ABS fuse out, you won't have ABS but you can stop and you won't have the grind noise and back pressure for now. Its safer to not have ABS when the sensor is faulty.
I UPGRADE IT MY TL NON TYPE S ...TO THE O.E BREMBO KIT....TOGETHER WITH THE ROTORS AND BRAND NEW ABS SENSORS.......WHY IS THE ABS ,VSA, ABD BRAKE LIGHT ON??MY ACURA IS
