Consumer Description

THREE TIMES IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS THE ABS SYSTEM HAS FAILED. IN ALL THREE INSTANCES THE ABS ACTIVATED DURING NORMAL BRAKING ON DRY SURFACES, USUALLY AT LOW SPEEDS WHILE COMING TO A STOP. IT TOOK EXTRA DISTANCE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND WAS QUITE DISRUPTIVE AND DISCONCERTING TO THE DRIVER. IF A VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN FRONT OF US, I AM SURE IT WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN A REAR END COLLISION. ALSO, THE ABS FAILURE WAS ERRATIC, THAT IS, IT DID NOT DUPLICATE EVERY TIME THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THE FIRST TWO TIMES, SENSORS WERE REPLACED AND ADJUSTED. THE MOST RECENT TIME THE ABS CHECK LIGHT CAME ON AND THE DEALER DETERMINED THAT PART #F58Z-2C219-AA INTEGRATED COIL (DEALER SAID IT WAS THE COMPUTER MODULE FOR THE ABS SYSTEM) HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AFTER BEING REPAIRED THE DEALER THEN DISCOVERED AN ADDITIONAL FAILURE CODE INDICATING THAT A SENSOR HAD ALSO FAILED.*AK
