Replacing brake pads & ABS system
Recently had my rear pads replaced at a local mechanic shop. Two weeks later & 470 miles (On a trip to WV which used up 440 miles) the entire ABS system went out costing me big bucks. Not good to loose brakes in the mountains!
My Question: Can the ABS system be damaged if you don't bleed the caliper when compressing the piston?
I have heard several different answers concerning this...My cruiser only has 65k miles on it and it's the 1st time that I needed brake work.

Was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience with ABS failure.
I guess it's a matter of how aggressively you want to pursue this---even if it happened just as you say, proving it isn't going to be easy in Small Claims. That's one helluva big bill, though, Sorry to hear that you had to bear that expense. I would have guessed more like $1500.
