ABS Warranty
New XJ owner here. Picked up a 91 Limited. Just started experiencing a Check Antilock followed by the brake lamp. I got the service and electrical manuals with it, and right now things are pointing at the abs pump. The pump runs when you power it up and doesn't shut off. Search of the internet reveals that I should probably scrap the abs, as it was nothing but a headache. However it does appear to have a Lifetime warantee on the pump and modulator unit. Has anyone taken a 14+ year old XJ into the dealer to get the ABS repaired? Am I in for a fight? What dealers around San Diego are good to deal with? Apparently there was a recall, and to cover their arses, Chrysler will fix this problem.
Second question which pertains to the first, is what dealers in the San Diego area are good to deal with? I swore off Chryslers due to warantee issues I had with a Caravan bought new, and my parents numerous problems with various Chrysler vehicles. The XJ was a smoking deal, so I jumped on it.
Thanks!
