## What is wrong

Certain vehicles may fail to conform to the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard \(CMVSS\) 121 \- Air Brake Systems and CMVSS 136 \- Electronic Stability Control Systems for Heavy Vehicles. In the event that the anti\-lock brake system \(ABS\) loses battery and/or ignition power to the controller, the ABS indicator lamp may not illuminate to warn the driver of the loss of ABS, which is contrary to the requirements of the standards. This could result in the loss of ABS function with no warning to the driver, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the cab control module.
