problem #1

Aug 012008

9-5 6-cyl

  • 88,000 miles
Bosch ABS module on 2001 Saab 9-5 SE V6 with 88,000 miles failed with ABS, tcs, brake, and /!\ failure lights displayed on dash. ABS no longer operable. Traction control system no longer operable. Engine management system no longer operable. Speedometer no longer operable. From reading many (over eight!) message boards, this an endemic problem with the Bosch ABS systems in many BMW, Saab, Cadillac catera, VW cars. Why can't the government recognize that this is an issue? ABS is brakes and brakes are a safety system. Please look into this. Contact bba-reman in taunton, MA, they handle fixing these systems and their load is very heavy.
