Recall 2002165
CA Recall: Brakes
On certain vehicles, the trw model 410m ecu (electronic control unit) can misinterpret particular false wheel speed signals generated from any of the following conditions: an incorrect gap between the sensor and tone ring, a chaffed sensor wire, connector corrosion, sensor vibration or quality of harness and pin-outs. if one of these conditions occurs, the ecu could not distinguish between an actual low friction event on road surface and a low amplitude sensor signal and would activate the abs brakes, instead of deactivating the abs in response to a false signal. the driver would experience a hard brake pedal during the middle to end of a braking event and a decrease in deceleration at the end of the stop. the driver may experience an unexpected extended stopping distance, which could result in a collision. the abs warning indicator light may not come on to warn the driver of a system malfunction. correction: dealer will affect repairs. note: recall superseded by 2004171 and 2004172.
