| Description of the problem | Right front tire slid on a patch of ice the size of 2 dinner plates when approaching a parking stall. The rest of the parking lot was virtually free of ice at the time. Multiple warning lights on the dash appeared and the abs no longer worked. When taken to the nearest mechanic, a failed abs module was suspected. They could not completely confirm, or repair due to chrysler proprietary codes. Took the truck to the nearest dodge/chrysler dealer, 60 mile roundtrip, where a failed abs module was verified. Scheduled a return trip 11 days later for repair as the part was not on hand and required ordering. |
