RAM 2500 Truck 2WD V8-5.2L VIN Y (2000)
Wheel Speed Sensor: Recalls
Recall 01V038000: Brake Hose/ABS Sensor Wire Clearance
Vehicle Description: Pickup trucks equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS). Some vehicles may have inadequate clearance between the front
tire/wheel and the brake hose/ABS sensor wire assembly. During full lock turns, it is possible for the tire or wheel to contact the brake hose/ABS sensor
wire assembly.
This could ultimately result in wire damage and/or a hole in the brake line, affecting brake effectiveness, increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the front brake hose assemblies, and the ABS sensor wire will be inspected and replaced if necessary. Owner notification began
March 8, 2001. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a
reasonable time should contact DaimlerChrysler at 1-800-853-1403. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety
Hotline at 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
