Pardon the cynicism, but I would get the van scanned for the precise ABS error code(s) first. These days, even a fairly modest consumer-grade scanner has this capability.

I expect this is caused by the global integrated circuit problem. Suggest to just wait for the dealership to source a replacement unit. The brakes still work ok, right? The dealership says it remains safe to drive, right? Neither of my cars have the ABS function, and that’s never caused me any problems. Just drive a little more conservatively is all. If you notice the traffic light is red on ahead, take your foot off the gas now, rather than at the last minute. Keep all your paperwork and a written record of your conversations w/the dealership.
