Constantly being troubled by the brake/ABS light on the dash board. Upon going to auto zone and checking what kind of code comes up for the problem, I received 20+ codes relating to brakes/ABS problems. I looked up the problem and discovered it was very popular amongst Ford Windstar from 1999-2003. I have a 2001 Ford Windstar and this problem is very troublesome. Upon requesting a quote to fix this problem, I was looking at $2000+ (parts, labor and warranty). It seems the ABS module is bad, and it itself costs $550 just in parts. This problem is persistent among a lot of Ford Windstar and potentially dangerous and life threatening. I would like Ford to take some sort of action and issue a re-call.
