The contact states there is an NHTSA recall campaign 04V185000 concerning the ABS brakes module. This vehicle has the same problems as indicated in the recall, but it is not included in the recall due to VIN. The vehicle has not been repaired.
The truck has continually had an intermitten problem with a resistence sensation, as if thy parking brake was on. I thought at the time it was an engine problem because of excessive raw fuel smell at the tailpipe. Dealer shop found nothing wrong at 3,218 miles (12/01/05). At 18,000 miles (5/2/05) there was a complete brake faliure, lose of brake pressure. Brake light came on and I believe the anti-lock braking sysetem froze and shorted out, because the unit was humming very loud and was getting very hot after the key was removed.I called on the evening of 5/3/05 and asked to have the defective part given to me. They said they would.
