While driving ABS brake indicator light flashes on the dashboard which causes loss of braking, resulting in extended stopping distance. Please provide any further details.
This vehicle suffered a sudden ABS brake failure with my wife driving on the freeway. She had to cross four lanes of traffic and exit down an off-ramp without appreciable brakes, and was able to coast into a parking lot. The dealer diagnosed the problem as the ABS pump-motor. The federal safety agency has issued a recall for this problem for this car, but the manufacturer says it does not apply to my car, only to ones with a different brand of brake system. That is absurd! This is a life-threatening defect. It is the result of defective parts. It is the identical failure to which the recall applies. But chrysler says they will not fix the problem under the lifetime recall notice because the recall did not specifically cover this brand of ABS system. What does it matter? The problem is identical. It is a life-threatening factory defect.
Consumer was traveling about 40 MPH on highway, applied brakes, and there were no brakes. Vehicle has been at dealership. *ak this exact failure was on recall, but the recall did not cover this brand of brake system. This was life-threatening factory defect.
