Don’t go to the dealer, a good brake shop or independent shop can diagnose and repair your vehicle. I’ve only seen a few vehicles that have locked the brakes due to an ABS failure usually when the ABS fails it just reverts to normal brakes so you can skid the tires when braking, most of the time it was contaminated brake fluid and a total flush cured it.
