What NHTSA recorded

Vehicle description: certain 4-wheel drive pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles equipped with abs (antilock braking system) manufactured from september 1989 through august 1996. Under certain driving conditions the switch which signals the abs system whether the vehicle is in 2-wheel or 4-wheel drive can malfunction causing increased stopping distances during abs stops while in the two-wheel drive mode.

Possible consequence

If this occurred at a time when minimum stopping distance was required, a vehicle crash could occur without prior warning.

Remedy

Dealers will replace or repair the 4-wheel/2-wheel drive switch.
