The hazard
On certain vehicles, the software of the ABS control unit (ECU) is incomplete. The software required to initiate the illumination of the red "BRAKE" warning lamp during the check of lamp function, when the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position, when the engine is not running, is not included. This could result in the driver not being aware that the lamp is inoperative, and the light not illuminating to notify the driver when the brake fluid pressure or fluid level is too low, which could increase the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the ABS control unit.
