The hazard
On certain vehicles, the ABS sensor wires may chafe on rotating parts, which can lead to a false signal being sent to the Bendix ABS Electronic Control Unit (ECU). This condition may cause the air ABS ECU to exhaust the air at the air brake modulators for one or more of the wheels as the vehicle decelerates from 8 to 5 miles per hour. This will result in extended stopping distances and a possible vehicle crash. Correction: ABS sensor wires will be rerouted and replaced as required.
