    Dt: abs brakes, air bags, and fuel system failed. At 4700 miles they replaced the entire brake system. Had it a mechanic shop and discovered it was the abs.

Upon impact, air bags also did not deploy. Also, fuel lines shut off. This happened on…

    Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip

    The problem occurs when applying brakes which causes steering wheel to lock up, resulting in loss of steering control. This occurs at a low speed as well as at a complete stop.

    Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip · Automatic Transmission

    Automatic fails to shift into lower gears for engine braking. When decending a steep grade the automatic transmission fails to apply.

When driving in the mountains this is extremely dangerous in that it requires the brakes to do the work of slowing the truck. If the brakes overheat then the truck will "run away". *ak
