Anti lock brake system engaging at low speeds while applying light pressure to brake pedal while on dry surface. We are in Florida We just had a right front wheel abs sensor replaced with new sensor and wheel hub last month. Now the abs system is engaging again after only 30 days. GM Buick Dealer says there was no code in the computer but by road testing he determined the right rear wheel speed sensor is reading 3 mile per hour and the rest of the sensors are reading 10 mph making vehicle think it was causing a skid. The dealer says right wheel hub with sensor needs to be replaced at a cost of $605.00
The diagnosis is correct. But the price is twice as high as it should be. The bearing cost (depending on the manufacturer is $70.-$130., Labor for one side would be one to two hours. This repair should be no more than $350. Please get another estimate. A reputable shop will diagnose and confirm the issue. This repair does not need to be performed by the dealership. I could replace this in your driveway (hypothetically). Just saying, it isn't a bad job. Wheel comes off, brakes are removed, CV axle nut is removed, speed sensor is unplugged, hub bearing mounting bolts are removed and the hub bearing is removed. That is it. Surfaces are cleaned and the parts are reassembled. There is some lock tight used and bolts are torqued but this is not a bad job.Any questions please write back. Good Luck.

have you had this car scanned for codes? wheel bearing problems are problem, but get it scanned rather than throwing parts in it so many possibilities.

Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
Fig. Fig. 1: The VSS is usually located in the right rear of the engine compartment-2.3L engine
OPERATION
The VSS is located on the transmission and sends a pulsing voltage signal to the ECM which is converted to miles per hour. This sensor mainly controls the operation of the TCC system, shift light, cruise control and activation of the EGR system.
TESTING
CAUTION
Do not perform this procedure in a closed area. If the vehicle were to fall from the jackstands during the procedure, it could travel on its own, possibly causing severe bodily injury, as well as property damage.
