Details

On certain vehicles, a fault within the antilock brake system (ABS) may cause the module to fail during ABS and/or electronic stability control (ESC) activation.

This will cause warning lights for ABS, brake and the ESC systems to illuminate.

If this happens, the brake system related vehicle stabilizing functions (ABS/ESC) may not be available, increasing the risk of a loss of vehicle control and could lead to a crash causing injury and/or property damage.

Correction: Dealers will update the ABS control module with improved diagnostic capability to detect insufficient PCU ground connection.

ABS modules with insufficient ground connections will be replaced.
