Having trouble with ABS light coming on and off. Replaced ABS sensor, charging system failed, replaced alternator. Driving at freeway speed when traffic stopped. Brake the vehicle, the anti lock braking failed and the brakes locked up causing a skid and was unable to stop and hit the car in front of me. Vehicle was repaired and returned to the road, ABS lights continue to go on and off. Took the vehicle to my repair shop and they say that the rear speed sensor is coding for the left side. Repair shop advised that tsb information is known. Tsb information: there are known software conflicts on this vehicle which may set the incorrect trouble code and also may show incorrect scan data. Service bulletin # 05-003-07 group: brakes date: june 13, 2007 this tsb is for chrysler pacifica 2205-2006. My chrysler t&c has the same sales code (bgf) as the pacifica. I am concerned that this vehicle is a safety hazard as the ABS lights are on most of the time. When the ABS light is on the computer also states that the traction control is off.

Abs and traction control failure. At 37,000 miles my ABS and traction control lights came on. I took it to the dealer and they would not do anything because it was out of warranty. I called chrysler and they told me the same thing. Also my service engine soon light came on and was told it is my egr valve. My brakes failed and hit my mustang with the van. Still they would do nothing about it.
