Consumer Description

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE, INABILITY OF FORD TO REPAIR. THE ABS WARNING LIGHT COMES ON, SECOND TIME IT HAS BEEN TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. DEALER TELLS ME THEY HAVE NO FIX, I CALLED TO FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE, THEY SAY THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT DON'T HAVE A FIX. VEHICLE IS DRIVABLE BUT I DON'T HAVE THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES, LIGHT IS STILL ON. A CHECK WITH A TROUBLESHOOTING WEB SITE: HTTP://WWW.FORD-AUTO-AND-PARTS.COM/TROUBLESHOOTING/ANSWERS/ID-1224.HTML INDICATES THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE EXPLORERS. NHSTA NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS AND FORCE A REPAIR OR RECALL. *LA
