Bad Speed Sensor?
This morning my girlfriend went out to start her 2007 Yaris 5-Door, and the ABS and emergency brake warning lights illuminated on the dash. She took the car into the dealership, who ran a diagnostic (and charged us $105 CAD to do so), and they informed us that the left rear speed sensor has gone bad. They were also saying this sensor is part of the entire hub assembly and that we’re going to be looking at $650 - $750 CAD to have it repaired. The car has about 72,000km on it which puts us just outside of the 60,000km factory warranty.
Has anyone had any experiences with their speed sensor failing? Or could anyone explain more about what the sensor actually does? Is there any risk not having it repaired right away? Thanks guys. |
