| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I currently own a 2001 chevy tahoe lt 4x4 and just had my brakes fixed because of a problem with the design related to the anti-lock sensors. for the past few months i've been having problem when coming to a slow stop the anti locking brakes activate, then having to use the emergency brake to get the suv to stop. when i had the system reviewed, there were no indications in the various onboard computers that there were any abs errors, so it was suggested that the brakes will need to be done. i spent over $1000.00 replacing brake parts and the problem still continued. the next review of the problem, the warranty company suggested that it could be the wheel bearings, but to first try and clean the sensors first. since the wheel bearings are over $350.00 each, we had the sensors cleaned. my local mechanic cleaned the sensors and at this point i've not had any more problems. but they told me i will again because of the design of the vehicle. the repair shop that fixed my car is located in so. burlington, vermont "autoworks". |
