Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: At irregular times when driving at slow speeds (~10 mph), on dry clean pavement, and under light to moderate braking, the anti-lock braking system engages and extends the stopping distance of the vehicle. i understand that a recall was issued for other vehicles in other states, but obviously the problem extends to more year models and over a wider area. in addition, gm has issued a technical service bulletin #02-05-25-006a covering more vehicles than were in the initial recall for this failure. it seems that if a tsb was released, they are aware that the problem is on much wider scale than the recall indicates. *nm
