Brake Antilock Wheel Speed Sensor Problems of Dodge Durango

Vehicle would give off a warning light for the abs system intermittently. While driving approximately at a speed of 55 mph, the light came on. The driver need to apply normal braking action for traffic. Vehicle pulled slightly to the right. Driver corrected, then vehicle went into an uncontrolled slide where rear of vehicle slid to left of driver until vehicle was turned 180 degrees opposite original direction, and proceeded to slide off hwy coming to rest in field. Vehicle stayed upright and incurred no obvious damage. Driver drove vehicle approx. 5-6 miles after that without incident and abs light was out during that remaining time. Vehicle towed to repair shop. Repair technician ran codes from the vehicle computer and ascertained that both the the abs module and speed sensor of rear wheel needed replacement. Original parts should be available for inspection.

I have replaced the abs sensor which is located on the rear axle of my 2004 Dodge Durango 3 times now, but for some reason has to be replaced every 6 to 9 months.

Abs and traction control lights come on and stay on. I just turned on the car and the lights stayed on. I have had my 2004 Dodge Durango for 9 months and it has been in three times for the abs problem. A total of 17 days and still counting. They changed the speed sensor, the wiring harness, and the ecm for abs and now its back in the shop.

I recently purchased a used 1999 Dodge Durango slt 4wd with 49000. When the abs light came on in the vehicle I had it checked and determined it was a speed sensor in the transmission. The dealer replaced this. The dealer also advised the front brakes needed immediate replacement. I took the vehicle to a local meineke shop to have the brakes replaced and the manager advised me the brakes had 70% of the pad left but the driver's side front lower ball joint was bad and needed immediate replacement. He recommended the vehicle not be driven for safety concerns. I had meineke replace the ball joint. I wrote the gm of the dealership and advised him of what had occured to try and determine why I was told my brakes were bad and the ball joint problem was not mentioned. I saw a greater danger in the front wheel falling off than the brakes not stopping the vehicle as effectively. I have yet to receive a reply regarding this issue.
