1992 Chevrolet Lumina Apv brakes problems

Filed Jan 15, 2004 · Brakes · 210,000 miles · UN

The ABS frequency is extremely low making the brakes completely un-efficient when operating (mainly winter time). Lately the ABS comes on during the final breaking, disabling the break for ~0.5 sec and accelerating the engine, giving a final kick ~ 0.5 - 1m instead of final stop. I want this ABS disabled for good, is extremely dangerous, mainly in city driving. Thanks, adrian

We have had consistant problems with our anti-lock brakes. When brakes are applied at low speeds on dry pavement anti-lock brakes will seem to activate and give out, leaving me with no brakes for a few moments. And the anti-lock break light inside the car will come on at various times and stay on, even when vehicle is first started. This problem has been reported to tony cheverolet and other repair shops and yet the problem still consist. We were wondering if this problem could be related to the recent recall of the chrysler bendix 10 ABS? Would our brakes be similar or the same model as the ones being recalled? And has general motors had complaints with these makes and models? We have had problems with this system since we've first owned the van.
