Consumer Description

Brake Pedal sinks to floor slowly at Red Lights. Randomly vehicle will yank seat belt back when abs module detects no brake fluid pressure once in a blue moon. This is because of the defective ABS module hydraulics leak internally from the factory. As brake fluid heats up the internal leak gets worse. Most likely check ball to pump or out valve leaking by. Model year 2015 for sure. I never got it covered under warranty because the problem starts out very random and takes a lot of time for it to always happen. Dealers will just say no problem found. ABS module cost $1k for me to buy at the dealer. Now I have brakes all the time again no thanks to a factory defect module randomly giving poor to no braking power. Internet forums of 2014-2016 have many people saying the same thing. Not the master cylinder, it is an internally leaking ABS module and will have no codes. Not happy about paying to replace a factory defective part.
