RECALL 99V193000/ABS: WHILE TRAVELING ON THE STREET AT 40 MPH; BRAKES WERE APPLIED TO SLOW VEHICLE DOWN. BECAUSE OF VEHICLE IN FRONT, MORE PRESSURE WAS NEEDED TO BE APPLIED ON THE PEDAL. THIS CAUSED BRAKE PEDAL TO GO TO THE FLOOR, AND EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE OCCURRED WHICH RESULTED IN A COLLISION. VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALER'S SHOP. HOWEVER, RECALL NOTICE RECEIVED AFTER THE ACCIDENT. *AK

I WOULD LIKE TO SUGGEST THAT THE ENTIRE 1996 GMC- JIMMY SERIES MADE NEED TO BE RECALLED BECAUSE THE OWNER HAS TO MANY REPAIRS TO BE DONE ON THE VEHICLE. THE SERVICES ENGINE LIGHT COMES VERY OFTEN TO INDICATE REPAIRS ON THE TRUCK AND THEIR ARE TO BE PROBLEMS WITH THIS 1996 JIMMY. I SUGGEST A TOTAL RECALL OF THIS VEHICLE AND THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO BE ON THE ROAD. IT HAS A VERY BAD BRAKING SYSTEM ABS.*AK
