Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip
Failure of abs speed sensors causes unexpected increased stopping distance. Same symptoms as nhtsa campaign id number 05v379000. Occurs nearly every time you attempt to stop at a slow speed. Could be a bigger problem in slippery (i.e. Snow/ice) conditions. Abs safety component is to make braking safer, a failure of an abs component should not make things worse. The abs component should be "fail-safe." *tr
