Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My problem is similar to the problems that i have read about related to nhtsa recall campaigns 05v379000 . at slow speed abs will activated, but the truck with not stop. this truck was not included in the recall which seemed weird since it had the same problems as described in the recall, and i live in a state which has salt on the roads almost half of the year. when i brought truck in to the chevrolet dealer, who stated that they needed to replace the entire hub assembly for both the right and left. to fully fix the problem they could not simply apply a rust inhibitor as the recall above suggested. i did some internet research and found that other consumers experienced the same problem. many who brought their trucks in under the recall also had to have the hub assembly replaced. the two crashes this problem caused included the vehicle running in to a tree in a parking lot and a tool chest in garage. i have been fortunate enough not to have run anyone over because of this problem.*ak
