ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
Last fall 10/14 replaced all brake lines due to corrosion (97000 miles). Which has been mentioned numerous times already. After that ABS light came on intermittently lost brakes last week to it to the shop they had it for the day everything worked fine. Continued driving light started coming back on & brakes were erratic. Yesterday was pulling out of parking lot had no brakes. If these are known problems why isn't anyone taking care of it. Why you would put untreated brake lines on a vehicle in the salt districts is beyond me. I had an 1989 oldsmobile with the original line on it til 198,000 miles. I also replaced the transmission at 77,000 miles due to corrosion of the lines.($2700)
Abs does not work, light is on the dash. Airbag lights are on the dash and not sure if they are working, tailgate does not latch closed. Key does not always want to turn and we need to move it back and forth before it will start the vehicle.

To ABS block broke off at wheel well left front this truck was in back yard for two weeks wait for title transfer rusted through just sitting there gm does not have replacement brake lines it is my understanding that all chevy gmc ford have same issue with brake line rusting thru I am a mechanic this is serious safety issue.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet silverado. The contact stated that while driving 30 MPH, the ABS light illuminated on the dashboard. The contact noticed that the brakes and rotors were wearing excessively due to a defective hub senor that controlled the braking system. The contact took the vehicle to a dealer to have the hub sensor and brake bearing replaced three times. None of the repairs remedied the issue with the braking system. The contact called the manufacturer regarding the federal safety agency campaign I.d. 07e106000 (wheels:cap/cover/hub). The manufacturer advised that the vehicle was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was 88,000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet k1500. The contact stated that the ABS would fail intermittently with the illumination of the warning light. The contact disconnected the ABS wire so that the warning light would no longer illuminate. The manufacturer was not contacted and the vehicle was not repaired. The failure and the current mileage was 76,000.
Abs sensor reads incorrectly and triggers the ABS system to kick in every time the brakes are used, causing the brake pedal to rumble and giving the sensation of brake failure when the pedal goes soft under your foot. This is worse when turning left. Extra distance is required for braking at all times. Abs warning light comes on at random times for no apparent reason.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet silverado. The contact was traveling 30 MPH on a two lane road when the accelerator pedal was engaged, when the gas pedal was released the vehicle continued to accelerate. The speed increased up to 80 MPH before the vehicle would stop. The accelerator pedal appeared to be stuck causing the contact to turn the vehicle off; however, the vehicle continued to accelerate. The contact turned the vehicle back on and off again before it began coasting to a stop. The contact took the vehicle into the dealer and was told that they were unable to diagnose the failure. When the contact drove the vehicle home, the ABS light came on. The failure and current mileages were 8900.
