| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 2003 gmc safari which i purchased in utah. earlier this year i experience a problem with the abs baking system where the abs would engage at low speeds, increasing my stopping distance greatly. i contacted gm as this seemed to be a safety issue and was told to take it in to a local gm dealership. the dealership inspected the brakes and noted that the sensor was bad and billed me for a repair. i see now that gm has issue a recall, although it does not cover my state or vehicle model, i was experiencing the exact problem that these other vehicles have with the abs failure. i think this needs to be more widely investigated as it seems to be a larger problem then they want to admit. i understand that the problem is caused by products used on icy streets which the van operated on in utah before i bought it. ps-the dealership destroyed the faulty part even though i asked to see it - they stated that this was there policy. *nm |
