I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT TODAY. THE REASON FOR THE ACCIDENT IS THAT MY ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ENGAGED AT LESS THAN 15 MPH THEREFORE NOT ALLOWING ME TO STOP IN TIME. THE BRAKE ACTUALLY FELT AS IF THEY WERE NOT WORKING AT ALL. I WAS INFORMED THAT NEWER MODELS WERE INCLUDED IN A RECALL IN THE SALT BELT, BUT NOT IN MN. WHAT CAN WE DO TO FIX THE PROBLEM? IT HAPPENED IN MN AND IN A 1999 TAHOE. THANKS, JOAN GODFREY. *NM
