No fault codes seen read many online forum posts with same problems. Braking power reduced by approx 70%. Scary to drive car now. This should be recalled. All posts point to abs unit failure. Dealer called for and did tsb change to high temp brake fluid at last service. Related to attempt and prevent this?? Could very well be. Please help. |
