LOOKING INTO THE TECHINCAL SERVICE BULLETIN YOU WILL SEE OVER 6 BULLETIN REPORTING THE LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID FROM THE ABS ACCUMULATOR / MOLDULATOR AREA. THIS APPEARS TO ME TO BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, A SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL. SINCE I HAVE NEVER USED MY ABS, I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS SYSTEM HAS FAILED DUE TO BRAKE FLUID LEAKAGE. I FEEL THAT SINCE THE GOVERMENT PUSHED ABS AND THE MANUFACTURE CHARGES ADDITIONAL FOR THE FEATURE THE MANUFACTURE SHOULD BE HELD LIABLE FOR THE DEFECTS OF THE UNIT. THIS REPAIR IS OBNOXIOUS FOR THE TYICAL CONSUMER, COSTING ALMOST $1200.00 TO REPAIR. THIS IS ABSURB, THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE, WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RECALLED PREVIOUSLY? ITS TIME THAT SOMEONE STOOD UP TO THE MANUFACTURE AND EXPRESSED THAT IF THEY CHARGE ADDITIONAL FOR FEATURES OF SAFETY THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO BACK THEM. THANK YOU. *AK
