| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On a dry well traveled road with an emergency vehicle approaching an intersection from the right, i applied my brake (non panic) and at first braking was as expected. then pedal went down and braking action was lost. the same problem has occurred at least 5 times before over the years. my dealership in california has on two occasions attempted to recreate the problem but at a problem rate of once a year the likelihood of this occurrence in a 20 minute period is poor. the dealership can not find any abs malfunction. the abs was reprogrammed 2 years ago per a service bulletin without correcting the problem. gm has refused to take effective action to fix this problem. gm points out that many conditions can cause the abs mode to be activated. my arguement is that my s10 should not require 3 to 4 times the normal stopping distance to stop.*ak |
