I was crapping myself cosi thought it would be some sort of abs thing that costs around $1000 to fix.. but after work I turned the car on and the warning was gone. Just wondering if anyone had the same/similar problems and know how to rectify it if possible. my mechanic (not ford) is a good guy and cant find a problem with it, so I am stumped.cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
