Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Events leading up to the failure: 2002 yukon 73,000 miles. no previous events leading up to the problem. failure/consequences: 2002 yukon: i started my car and abs light stayed on. while driving, i could feel an abnormal vibration throughout my car. (with my two small children, we pulled off to the side of the road on the right of way. i cut off my car (removed key out of ignition) and the car sounded like it was still on. correct the problem: i called my gmc dealer in austin texas where i had purchased the vehicle and the service manager told me that he has seen many incidents such as this. he indicated that if i left the abs motor running, that my battery would die and/or the motor would ruin. so, he instructed me to raise the hood and remove the 60amp abs fuse. by doing so, the vibration/motor stopped. he said to bring it into the garage for service. his initial guess was that it was the abs module or ebcm needed to be replaced. because my vehicle was no longer in warranty, he estimated that it could cost anywhere between $1100.00-1900.00 dollars. i have done research on the internet and there are many 1999-2004 gm suvs and trucks which have experienced this problem. i am requesting that a recall be placed for these modules. *tr
