ABS Brake problem
I took my van in for service because my ABS light was on and not pedal was going all the way down. I have a '92 Town and country So the ABS system was replaced under the lifetime warranty. I was also told I needed to replace the accumulator, so I had that done for $500. After the work was done, they couldn't get the brakes to bleed, and ended up keeping my van for 4 months, yes 4 months, trying to determine the problem. Now, I'm being told that the master cylinder needs to be replaced, which is over $3,000! Of course I don't plan to have this done, but should I be expected to pay for an accumulator that may not have needed replacing? And could the faulty ABS system have damaged my master cylinder?? This all seems very fishy to me!

$3000 for a master cylinder seems a little bit high.
rockauto.com sells them for about $31.00. Plus shipping of course. Maybe you should get a second opinion. |
