Service Brakes, Hydraulic › Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip

Filed Jan 3, 2000MA

OUR PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE SIMILIAR TO ODI NOS. 402200 AND 404275. WE BOUGHT THE CAR USED (PRIVATE SALE). THE ABS WAS NOT WORKING DUE TO BEING IN AN ACCIDENT. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE HYDRAULIC PUMP (WHICH WAS NOT WORKING), THE CONTROL MODULE (WHICH WAS WORKING), GONE OVER ALL THE WIRING IN DETAIL (WITH SCOPE). THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE ABS PUMP IS NOW ACTIVATING ALL THE TIME, EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED. DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS?*AK

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
