MY TRACTION SENSOR IS NOT WORKING WHICH IS CAUSING MY A SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN I START DRIVING (IN MOTION), THE ABS TRACTION STARTS EVEN WHEN THERE IS NO WATER, ICE OR POOR DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE ABS MODULE AND ITS STILL DOING IT. THEY NOW SAY THEY WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE SENSOR IN THE STEERING COLUMN (WHEEL). THIS IS VERY SCARY AS IT STOPS MY ACCELERATION AND IT AFFECTS THE ANTI-LOCK BREAKS. I WAS HOPING THIS WAS ALL DUE TO AN MINOR AUTO COLLISION BUT THE INSURANCE COMPANY TOLD ME THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY THIS COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BECAUSE OF IT. THEY SAID ITS A COINCIDENCE AND THAT IT JUST HAPPENED ON ITS OWN AT THE SAME TIME. I WOULD SAY THE FAULT IS UNKNOWN.
