2 Brake Abs Warning Light problem of the 1997 Buick Regal

Failure Date: 08/08/2014

The service vehicle soon/abs warning light/and trac off light lit and the car lurched as if the brakes were applied at the left front wheel. The error code was c1225, which is too much speed at the left front wheel. The bearing and sensor was replaced 3 times and the problem still occurred. The mechanic also replaced the abs pump module (the electronic part of the abs unit) and then had to upgrade the left front wheel bearing and sensor to another brand that was 2x as expensive. The abs problem affected the steering (making it harder to steer and more noisy), and also affected the shifting of the transmission. The online warnings said that it could damage the transmission if not corrected. I even tried replacing the module of the traction control unit under the dash. This was a very time consuming and costly repair, as the left front bearing was replace a total of 4 times and two visits for the abs module and programming. I see that another owner had similar problems at about 140,000 miles.
