Automotive RepairDiagnostics & Troubleshooting4HighOwner$ implied
Owner of a 2003 Chevy Avalanche needs to resolve ABS module failure causing random wheel lockup during sharp turns, but cannot get a replacement module and mechanics refuse to disable the system, claiming it would also disable standard braking.
No viable solution: replacement ABS module is unavailable and extremely expensive ($1000s), and mechanics refuse to disable the ABS system due to liability concerns, even though the owner believes standard braking would still work.
