| Description of the problem | Wheel speed sensor, abs sensor, and tpms sensor gave out at 56k. Got in one day and it said i was doing 140 while parked. Before i got to my destination, the abs, tcs, and tpms lights were on. Car was used and well taken care of. If everything wasn't built into the wheel hub, it would be a relatively easy fix. Instead i now have to drive my sorento with no tcs, abs, or know if a tire is low/flat because a quoted cost of repair was close to 1200 dollars. Nobody has 1200 to get it fixed. After looking at online forums, it seems to be common with 2013-2015 sorento to have anything abs/tcs related go south. Car drives like a dream, only wish it didn't take 2 months rent to feel safe. |
