Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: There have been several occasions where abs brakes and traction control needed to be activated. whenever they activated they failed. they will activate for about 1 second and then shut down with warning coming on the display and saying to service the abs brakes and the traction control. also, the icons on the dashboard come on, indicating the abs and traction control are shut down. until recently there wasn't a major problem , but on 1/23/2006 when brakes shut down van almost ended up in a river with 2 year old child in the van with me. according to my repair receipt the following was done. customer states when hitting bump, traction control shuts off and abs activates, technical service bulletin 0108450050 stated checked female terminals and none were loose. packed connector with grease and drove vehicle 10 miles. could not duplicate. their description of the problem isn't 100% accurate. i found another driver online who had the same problem with the same year and model van. *ak
