I see a LOT of Gen2 ABS actuator failures here in Phoenix. Most that I touch have the initial symptoms of failure varying from 90-250K miles with typical around 140-160K.

I would not regard Phoenix as a humid climate.

The ABS actuators coupled with the poor brake fluid change interval/practices are a $hitty combo.
