| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: In reference to gm recall no. 05068 involving several gm model trucks and suv's antilock brake issues at low speeds. i own a 1999 silverado and have this problem. it is extremely dangerous! gm should be taking immediate action, not two months from now! i have had too many very close calls and my wife refuses to drive the truck. a second independent investigation may be warranted to determine why vehicles do not stop when "antilock braking systems" are engaged! i have had close calls with my gm truck and gm lumina car with antilock braking system not providing braking when needed. one such occurrence on winter roads in my gm lumina nearly killed my entire family of five! the failure is the gm antilock braking systems can reduce or eliminate the ability to stop or slow down to safely control the vehicle and prevent an accident. i don't know what i can do about it except remove the antilock braking system fuse. *nm |
