REAR ABS MODULE FAILED. CAUSING OVER PRESSURIZATION OF FRONT BRAKES RESULTING IN PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE HOSE SEPARATION. SO NO REAR OR FRONT BRAKES!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1994 FORD E250. THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS GEARS WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 0-55 MPH. ALSO WHEN DRIVING UP- HILL OR DOWN- HILL, THE TRANSMISSION WILL SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FIVE TIMES FOR INSPECTION. THE TORQUE CONVERTER WAS REPLACED, AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS REBUILT. NONE OF THE REPAIRS HAVE REMEDIED THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000 THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS OVER 300,000.
ALB ARE A DANGER TO DRIVER IN WET ROADS WHEN YOU GO TO STOP AND SLIDE BRAKES COME OFF IT TAKES TO LONG TO COME BACK ON . WHEN YOU NEED TO STOP TO AVOID A ACCIDENT YOU CAN STOP FASTER WITH OUT THEM BY PUMPING BRAKES WHEN THEY COME OFF THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO. WAIT TO HIT SOMEONE TILL BRAKE COME BACK. NOTHING SHOULD TAKE THE DRIVER AWAY FROM HIS CAR THEY WILL GET SOME ONE KILLED. *NM
OUR 1994 15 PASSENGER FORD VAN RIGHT SIDE VAN DOOR HAS THE STANDARD LOCK KNOB WHICH CAN BE PLAYED WITH BY OCCUPANT. IF THE KNOB IS SCREWED OFF , THE CONNECTING LOCKING MECHANISM WILL DROP INTO THE DOOR BEHIND THE INTERIOR PANEL. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE DOOR IS LOCKED AND CAN NOT BE UNLOCK WITH KEY, KNOB OR ELECTRIC OPENER. THE OCCUPANTS ONLY WAY OUT IS OVER THE FRONT SEAT OR OVER THE REAR SEATS AND OUT THE TAIL GATE DOOR. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE AND THE DOOR PANEL HAS TO BE REMOVED TO UNLOCK. VERY DANGEROUS AND IS NOT CHILD PROOF. *NLM
