1997 VOLVO WXTransport Canada Recall #2000210
Defect
On certain vehicles, the ABS ECU misinterprets certain signals from wheel ends which can result in the temporary loss of braking capability on one or more wheel positions for several seconds. This response results from either an ABS cable that has chafed through the insulation and contacted a rotating part or a misaligned tone ring that has been damaged by contacting other components.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
ABS ECU will be replaced with a new ECU with upgraded software capable of detecting and properly responding to erroneous signals.
