Need Help

Can anyone help me? I am a girl that has been taken advantaged of in the past as I'm at the mercy of the mechanics. This has made me very leary of taking my car into the garage. However, I own a 2000 Pontiac Sunfire and it's been giving me some problems. I still have extended warranty on the car and a couple of weeks ago, my warranty paid for a new rack to be installed. Since then, my abs brakes have been going crazy. Every time I turn sharp on a corner or back up, they kick in. Then today, my service, abs and t/c lights all came on at the same time. I think that when they installed my rack they may have crossed a wire, but when I asked the garage that fixed my rack, they said they didn't think so. They would take a look at it, and if the problem has nothing to do with my rack, they would charge me for it. Does anyone know what the problem could be and what price range I can expect to pay? I'd appreciate any help. Thanks

Have them look at it...I work on these ABS systems day in and out, you probably have a broken (well it's called an exciter ring) on one of the drive shafts, and they probably damaged it changing the rack (they probably droped the subframe of your car to change the rack...well undoing a ball joint I'm willing to beat someone hit the drive shaft with a hammer, I've done it before myself by mistake. Although i was a little more honest with the pereon). Simply point out it wasn't doing it before you took your car to them...there's not much else you can do. Drive shaft replacement is expensive but you said the rack was cover, so maybe this is 2
