Slap it up on ramps and take a look at the wheel sensors. The wiring does run down the control arms etc and could have been bumped/moved/hurt in the tow.

That sucks that mechanics RIP people off. I would check the wire that leads to the hub to make sure it is ok. It runs down the Lower control arms to the back of the rotor assembly. You can see a white plug on a little mount. that is where it plugs in.
If that is pluged in follow it up to where it plugs in to ensure that is ok. Also check to see if it is cut on anything. If they did not tie it down the right way and used the control arms to hook up to, they could have damaged something while in tow.
Good luck with it.
Thanks for the reply. I hope that it is not the wire. I already bought the part thinking that if the obd code shows the sensor is bad then that is what would be wrong. After I ordered it I also found out that there was a recall on the wiring harness. It says that the harness had faults 4-5 inches in from the sensor because it WAS NOT ATTACHED as you said. Two questions, if it shows wear marks where it was towed is the driver responsible? If it is cracked like the recall says would they still grant the recall? Thanks again for the help. Greg
