I have had a problem with the ABS since I got the vehicle, however, I was unfamiliar with ABS and thought the problem was normal. When I brake, if I hit a bump, the brakes lock up, and I continue to slide. This has happened on many occasions, on dry and wet pavements and on snow and ice. I came very close (10-15 feet) to sliding into a busy intersection once when this brake problem occurred. I received a recall letter from the manufacturer and when I attempted to have the problem fixed, was told that my particular vehicle was not covered under the recall because it was manufactured at a different plant. I have wasted a lunch hour and a lot of time on the phone trying to get satisfaction from gmc, to no avail, besides putting my life and other's lives on the line whenever I drive. As for the driver's seat problem, this developed about 2 years ago. The lever on the side of the seat which lays the back down and brings it up came off, stripped (it was plastic). Now I have no way to adjust my seatback, and every once in a while, it slips back on it's own and I cannot control it. I am sure that one of these days I'll be driving along and my seatback will just fall down. The glove box door broke off the dash. If I have an accident, it will become a missile inside the cab. Both the seat and the glove box door are not covered under my warranty from the manufacturer which is known as a "universal" warranty, and which I paid an additional $1300 to obtain, just for problems such as these.
Vehicle experienced rear wheel lock up while applying brakes at 30 MPH. This caused vehicle to rear end another vehicle in front. Dealer/manufactureer were not contacted at this time.
When consumer is driving 80 kph- 100kph anti-lock brake light comes on. When she applies brake pedal, pedal becomes hard and will not move. Consumer uses the emergency brake to stop vehicle. Took vehicle into mechanic for repair, replaced both wheel sensors, and the problem has not reoccured since. *ak
No summary listed for above vehicle.
Vehicle experienced failure of the recall component prior to recall notification and is not able to receive refund (98v‑150).
While traveling 35 MPH & making a sudden stop vehicle continued to travel as a result of an accident. Dealer has been notified before hand of a recall notice for ABS brake problems. Dealership would not repair vehicle under recall. Please provide further informaton.
I was in an accident 2/99 due to brake failure with my 95 s-10. My first chargable accident in 19 years. At the time of my accident I told the insurance co. My brakes failed. Now I have received notice that my brakes have been recalled. Is there anyway possible that I could have the insurance company.
When applying the brakes on gravel the pedal goes to the floor causing vehicle to go through an intersection. Dealer says its normal. Mjs

Abs locks up on occasions causing vehicle to slide, usually in wet weather.
It appears to me that brake fluid is leaking out of the unit the brake fluid reservoir is attached to. Also, the valve cover gasket is leaking around the top of the engine.( dot number: )
Abs brakes fail to work, light is on. Regular brakes work.
While driving down highway 14 and turning at the intersection another driver took off, consumer hit the brakes, car slid about 12 inches, and hit the passenger's side of the door. Truck flipped over 3 times. Consumer was wearing seat belts. Airbag sensor was chipped, and air bags did not deploy. Consumer had to have truck towed.
Windshield wipers are intermittent, it was taken to the dealership and verified, however, this VIN was not included in the recall for the 95 chevrolet blazer 2. Antilock brakes were also inspected and found to be defective by dealership, but again the VIN for this vehicle was not included in the recall for the anti-lock brakes for 95 chevrolet blazers. 3. Passenger side rear view mirror has cracked and broke off two times. The cracks are originating on the underside of the mirror support. After speaking with the dealership, they indicated to have the same problem with their parts vehicle which is also a 95 chevrolet blazer, and I have talked with two other people who own blazers who had the same defect. I have also tried to locate a used mirror in junk yards, in altus ok, lubbock, tx, and valdosta ga. None of the junk yards had any, they had the vehicles but the mirrors had already been bought. They second mirror I installed broke off and was dangling by the wires while driving down the interstate at 70mph nearly causing an accident, and not to mention it made it difficult to see drivers on the passenger side of the vehicle while changing lanes.
Braking system malfunctioned. While driving from good traction onto bad traction, braking system will result in extended stopping distance which may cause a crash. Also on a regular stop vehicle loses all power brakes. There is a recall for this problem, but the manufacturer stated that this vehicle is not included in the recall althiugh it has the same problem.
While driving 45 to 50 MPH and applying the brakes while coming to a red light,the brake pedal was hard, and the egr valve locked uo, causing the power brakes not to work.
While driving down in raining conditions windshield wipers will stop working. If consumer hits a bump they will come back on. When this happens the consumer has to pull over until wind shield wipers come back on. Also, ABS brakes are making a growling noise when stopping. Has not been to a dealer.
Whenever the ABS brakes are applied they fail to engage. Would make turns or slow down and vehicle would keep turning or going straight. When it was raining, applied brakes hard to avoid rearending another vehicle, swerved instead & hit another vehicle. Taking vehicle to dealer to check ABS braking system.
When wet outside and applying the brakes vehicle will skid until it hits dry pavement again. Dealer says it's normal.
