Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have discovered a brake fluid leak from the abs modulator assembly in my 1997 buick lesabre. there is a recall (#00v114000) for this very same problem in 2000 lesabres. this can cause the braking system to malfunction! the recall should be extended to cover earlier years. in the mean time i am going to purchase a new abs modulator assembly. i fear the new valve assembly will develop the same problem. *nm
