Tl* the contact owns a 1991 dodge grand caravan. The contact stated that there was a failure in which the previous owner had to replace the ABS hydraulic control unit. The VIN was not included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 96v099000 (service brakes, hydraulic). The failure recurred and caused the reduced power assist to fail during braking. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer. The dealer kept the vehicle for over two weeks. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and provided no solution other than suggesting the part be replaced a second time by the dealer. The contact was unable to determine if the same part being replaced would prevent the failure or if the failure would recur. The approximate failure mileage was 140,000.
