: the contact stated there was a loud humming sound coming from the rear end and the abs light is illuminated. An independent mechanic determined there was water in the rear axle due to inadequate sealing of the anti-lock braking system (abs) sensor. There is an NHTSA recall, # 02v299000, regarding the suspension: rear. The VIN was not included in the recall. Updated 9/15/2006 -.

Veh had 2400 mi at date of incident. The clamp to radiator hose broke cuasing to leak radiator fluid. Contacted the dealership they requested to bring the vehicle in. I was out of state, but was lucky enoungh to place an aftermarket hose clamp on the hose (something a bit more sturdy) also the left front suspension has been making a very noisey sqweek while going over bumps. I will have the dealership look at it that as well.
