Sentences with phrase «braking system malfunctions»

According to a report by the Associated Press, several of the nine complaints logged with the NHTSA say the emergency braking system malfunctions multiple times during a drive.

Not exact matches

On some vehicles, though, braking ability will be reduced if the antilock system malfunctions, and stability control and traction control (on vehicles with those features) might also be disabled.

Some Examples: Air filter clogged Exhaust leak plugged cat clogged fuel injector malfunctioning fuel pressure regulator clogged fuel filter malfunctioning fuel pump spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil Vacuum leak dirty throttle body malfunctioning fast idle thermo valve (similar to vacuum leak) low oil (unless there is an oil level sensor) belts gaskets seals rings low compression bearing damage (rod knock) Broken cam rocker fell / broke off broken valve spring stuck valve critical engine damage (windowed the block) wiring, fuses, relays starting system - ignition switch, starter, relay Cooling system - clogs, leaks, flow (may throw a code if you overheat) transmission clutch (es) driveshaft, differential, axles brakes suspension tires hvac lights gauges

Often at the same time of driving (not exactly the scratch moment), but not necessarily - I get a warning message that reads «parking brake malfunction», followed by the stability system and ABS disabling.

With this system, diagonal circuits link front and rear wheels at opposite corners, so braking capacity is retained even if one of the two circuits malfunctions

The anti-lock brake system fluid level sensor monitors the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir in order to inform the driver if the level falls below the minimum safe level in the event of a malfunction.

Antilock brake system software could result in increased stopping distance on rough roads Malfunctioning occupant detection system could result in a permanent suppression of the passenger airbag which won't allow it to deploy in an accident

Acura is recalling nearly 50,000 MDX SUVs and RLX sedans over an issue affecting the emergency braking system, which can malfunction and apply the brakes without warning, putting the vehicle at risk of a collision.

According to Honda, Acura's parent company, it's possible that the system in the recalled vehicles will malfunction when it detects a vehicle accelerating in front while simultaneously driving parallel to an iron fence or metal guardrail, unnecessarily applying the brakes and possibly causing a rear - end collision.

It alerts you that your brake system is at risk of malfunction, and low brake fluid or leaky brakes may be the cause.

Panic braking assist, cruise control, electronic stability and traction control systems can also be affected by this malfunction.

WASHINGTON — Federal safety officials have opened an investigation into a possible malfunction of the anti-lock brake systems on 165,000 1991 - 1993 Chrysler Corp. minivans.

A thermal overload in the ABS (anti-lock braking system) control unit can interrupt current to the control unit, resulting in a fault warning light and malfunctioning ABS that could pose a risk in critical situations.

Ray: A second possibility is that the mechanical portion of your braking system is malfunctioning, preventing the ABS from releasing the drum brakes quickly enough.

(39 kg) raise the child into the adult belted zone • Anti-lock brakes (ABS) modulate the brakes for the driver to provide steering control while braking • Electronic Stability Program (ESP) applies selective braking or throttle reduction to control oversteer and understeer • Brake Assist ensures maximum braking action during panic stops • Traction Control reduces the throttle and / or applies selective braking to optimize traction during acceleration • Electronic Roll Mitigation determines when the vehicle is in a potential roll over condition and applies appropriate braking force to reduce the likelihood that such an event will occur • Rollover Sensing deploys seat - mounted side air bags, side - curtain air bags and seat - belt pretensioners • Trailer Sway Control helps maintain vehicle and trailer system stability by applying selective braking • Event Data Recorder records the nature of a malfunction or impact event for retrieval using a service diagnostic tool • Available ParkView ™ Rear Backup Camera displays the view behind the vehicle in the navigation display when backing up or parking • Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) alerts drivers to low tire pressure (s) to facilitate safe handling • Brake - park Interlock prevents automatic transaxle from being shifted out of Park or Neutral without first applying brakes • Side Guard Door Beams in front and rear doors provide occupant protection in the event of a side impact

Clock spring & tilt sensors went out causing stability and traction control system malfunction, computer activated brakes stopping van in middle of traffic (no break input from driver).

Vehicle malfunctions are also common, including mechanical, electrical and braking systems.

A faulty brake system, malfunctioning seat belts, or un-deployed airbags may cause a crash to occur or make the injuries sustained in an accident more serious than they would have been if the car had been functioning properly.

Secondly, diesel mechanics replace and repair damaged or malfunctioning parts in engines, followed by fixing brake and electrical systems.
