On certain vehicles equipped with an Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), water could enter the ground wire casing and travel to the ABS hydraulic unit connector. If water invasion occurs, the connector terminals could become corroded, which could affect the hydraulic motor circuit in a manner that the motor would operate continuously. This could cause the hydraulic motor to overheat and catch on fire, which could result in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the ground wiring sub harness and inspect the ABS hydraulic unit for corrosion. If corrosion exists, the unit will be replaced.
