Consumer Description

ANTI- LOCK BRAKE FAILURE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. CAR WAS INSPECTED BY THE SERVICING DEALER AND WE WERE INSTRUCTED TO REPLACE THE ABS COMPUTER AT A COST OF $1,500. FAILURE TO DO SO, REPORTED THE SERVICE MANAGER, WOULD RESULT IN CONTINUING DEGRADATION OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM TO THE POINT OF COMPLETE FAILURE. I WILL PROVIDE VIN INFORMATION IF REQUIRED FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION. WITH ONLY 29,000 MILES ON A WELL MAINTAINED CAR, FAILURE OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS SHOCKING. *AK
