SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 GMC SIERRA K1500. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AT APPROXIMATELY 4-5 MPH, THE ANTILOCK BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGED. THIS PREVENTS THE VEHICLE FROM COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE FAILURE HAS OCCURRED ON DRY PAVEMENT AND SUNNY WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE VEHICLE EVENTUALLY COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP OVER A PERIOD OF TIME. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT RUNS THE RISK OF REAR ENDING ANOTHER VEHICLE. THROUGH RESEARCH, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 05V379000 FOR THE SAME FAILURE. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC AND HAD THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE FRONT ABS ASSEMBLY WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND EXPLAINED THE ISSUE. GM STATED THAT HIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL; THEREFORE, THEY WOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS. A MECHANIC PERFORMED THE REPAIR, BUT THE CONTACT BELIEVES THAT THE VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 129,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 133,000. UPDATED 12/30/08 *BF WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ENGAGED ON DRY PAVEMENT. THE PROBLEM STARTED OUT AS INCREASING IN STOPPING DISTANCE. THE CONSUMER STATED THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES VIBRATED SO VIOLENTLY HE WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE VEHICLE WAS TO PULL THE FUSE CONTROLLING THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. UPDATED 01/05/09. *JB
