Abs brakes; when applying the brakes in normal conditions, the pedal went to the floor and the brakes failed to stop the vehicle, causing three accidents.
Problem has occurred seven times. Each time, I have been braking for a stop sign or traffic signal and had slowed almost to a stop when the ABS started to function. This extended my stopping distance to the point that I was approximately half way into the pedestrian crosswalk when the vehicle came to a complete stop. The road surface in each case was paved and dry.

I have taken the truck to the dealer on three occasions, on two of the occassions, the dealership said they could find nothing wrong with the brakes, on the third visit they said they recreated to condition but that it was normal for antilock brakes and they failed to list this on the ticket. I have also contacted general motors about the incidents in question and they said if the dealership could not recreate it then they would not fix it. During all of this I have seen on t.v. (dateline) and read of others having the same troble with their brakes. The brakes usually fail at under 35mph under normal driving conditions. This is a very dangerous defect and all manufacturers should be held accountable.
