Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Brakes on 1999 chevy suburban k1500 have been problem since day 1. dealer ( now defunct) spent much time and money trying to fix. 5 sets of pads, 2 sets of rotors etc. etc. vehicle now will not stop below 10 mph unless anti-lock is disabled (pulling fuse) gm has acknowledged problem in similar vehicles as corroded anti-lock sensors but refuses to include this same model, thereby eliminating any fix by them. this known safety issue is causing strife as my wife now refuses to drive a vehicle with questionable brakes. the problem gm faces with anti-lock brakes is a major one and could cost them billions if admitted. is there any way to get some action on this? *jb |
