Brake issue with my Volvo.

why does brake failure stop safely come up when i try to start my volvo s40 d5 auto .

Our answer:

Hi there,

The S40's ABS control module is a known weak area and may need to be replaced - unfortunately it's very expensive. Another known issue that may cause similar errors is misalignment of the front wheel hubs and bearings, so if you've had any work done in that area, it may be causing the problem.
