Defect SummaryOn certain school buses and truck model vehicles manufactured between february 28, 1999, through april 5, 2004, the anti-lock brake system electronic control unit (ecu) may misinterpret a corrupt wheel speed signal.
Consequence SummaryThe corrupt wheel speed signals may improperly activate the abs, instead of deactivating the abs. this may result in the driver experiencing a hard pedal feel and a decrease in deceleration at the end of the stop, resulting in extended stopping distances which could cause a vehicle crash, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death.
