Consumer Description

ABS WARNING LIGHT HAD BEEN COMING ON PERIODICALLY, THUS LOSING ABS. AFTER A FEW WEEKS, THE LIGHT WAS OFF, BUT MY ABS KICKED IN ON DRY PAVEMENT, MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO STOP. THIS HAPPENED A COUPLE OF TIMES. CAR ONLY HAD 38,000 MILES. BROUGHT IT TO DEALER. THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A FAULTY SENSOR ON ONE OF THE TIRES...SINCE I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THIS WAS AN ITEM WHICH TAKES "WEAR AND TEAR" , FORD WOULD NOT ASSIST IN THE PAYMENT AT ALL. DEALER ALSO STATED THAT IT WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, HOWEVER, IF IT WAS AN EMERGENCY BRAKING SITUATION I DO NOT FEEL THAT I COULD HAVE STOPPED IN TIME. *JB
