What NHTSA recorded

Vehicle description: motor homes equipped with tag axles. There is reduced braking ability on the rear axle due to the tag axle abs sensors reading "no tire/wheel rotation," under heavy braking conditions. The sensors detect that the wheel rotation has ceased and then stops sending a signal to the abs computer.

Possible consequence

The vehicles could have reduced braking ability and increased stopping distances on the rear axle, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy

Dealers will delete the abs on the tag axle (only), by removing the sensors and wiring harness.
