Answer

No, no recall for the condition. You'll need a scanner that can read Chassis (ABS) codes and find which wheel is effected. Once you know what wheel, you'll need to determine if the wheel bearing (hub, the speed sensor is built in) or the wiring going up to the hub. It could be something as simple as a wiring repair.

The reason for the ABS engagement is the loss of signal fools the computer into thinking the wheel locked up.
