Description of the problem	This mb sprinter 3500 3. 0 diesel is the chassis for a 2018 thor chateau 24fs rv. 2018-07-06 - 8485 miles: left rear speed sensor replaced. 2018-09-14 - 9488 miles: right rear speed sensor replaced. 2020-05-22 - 14127 miles: left rear speed sensor replaced. In all cases the traction, skid, and abs lights come on along with the check engine light intermittently. When this occurs, the transmission can shift many times per sec when turning a sharp corner (and cause the rv to "buck"). Also the transmission can drop out of drive multiple times and rev the engine rpms at highway speeds, also causing the rv to "buck". A startled driver might try to turn off the engine at highway speeds and lock the steering wheel. Mb service agent on 5-22-2020 told me that they see this with rv's "all the time, but never seem to see it when the sprinter is just a van. Unclear why this is happening". This is a safety issue that could cause an accident!!! It almost did for me driving 55 mph on i-515 in ga near woodstock and other times. Also caused me to have the rv towed to the mb dealer in atlanta from tybee island ga at an expense of $600. At minimum, mb should update their esp computer to sanity check the date being given by the wheel speed sensors. If they don't make sense, then disable abs, traction and skid, but don't start shifting the transmission multiple times per second, or take it out of gear and rev the engine. dtjbdt dl
