 Description of the problemWas driving truck and noticed loud motor noise in addition to engine running. Turned truck off in garage and a motor noise was still running with engine turned off. Abs light on dash illuminated. Unloaded child, self and groceries from truck. 30 minutes later, (trying to figure out next step to correct problem since it was a sunday), motor noise is still running and engine is off. Drove truck to firestone garage. Turned engine off, motor noise still running. Garage hooked truck up to diagnostic system and said that there was a failure in abs system. They disconnected abs system and motor noise stopped. Said that the part was dangerously hot and that this could have been very bad because the abs system sits right under/over the gas tank. Can you imagine what could have happened to my family and house if it caused a fire in my garage? What if i couldn't have found a garage that was open on sunday afternoon? There aren't many, believe me. I have received a quote to have part replaced, but have not fixed yet. It is very inconvenient for me to leave my truck at a dealership for the length of time this is going to take to be diagnosed again (and of course the dealer wants me to pay the $99 diagnostic fee again after i have already paid this once to firestone). I do not feel that the abs system should fail on a truck that is only 5 years old. *jb
