Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I just bought a 1998 yukon and during inspection asked about my brake issues. i was told that there was a recall for the abs. i looked it up and it is doing exactly what the recall states (gm re-call #05068). during low-speed braking, it has an increased stopping distance, which could result in a crash. the recall is only for 1999-2002 vehicles. i'm wondering why the 1998's weren't included in this re-call as it is apparent that they have the same issue. what should i do about this? *jb
