What is wrong
ILJIN USA Corporation (ILJIN) is recalling certain SKF USA and Federal Mogul (MOOG)-brand front wheel bearings with an integrated wheel speed sensor produced from June 26, 2013 to September 27, 2013. The affected bearings were produced with the speed sensor wires reversed.
What can happen
Due to the reversed wires, the wheel speed sensor will not function, disabling the antilock brake system (ABS). Without ABS, the driver may have reduced control of the vehicle while braking and require a longer distance to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
ILJIN will notify purchasers and will replace the wheel sensor wiring harness, free of charge. ILJIN will fully reimburse any purchasers or end users who have already removed, repaired or replaced the defective part or paid someone to do so. The recall began on December 9, 2013. Owners should contact ILJIN at 1-248-848-1020 to obtain details about the reimbursement program.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
