2004 GMC Sierra 2500: ABS light or ABS activating

Filed Mar 16, 2016 · Brakes, Fuel system · 107,900 miles · AK

In the past three months the fuel lines needed replacement as they had rusted so badly that a leak formed. Yesterday while pulling my 10,000 pound boat, my brakes suddenly failed because of a leak in the line between the ABS box and the right front wheel. The catastrophic failure nearly caused me to lose control of my vehicle and boat. I was able to downshift and use by emergency brake to bring the rig to a stop.

I bought (2) sierra 2500 hd trucks that have serious hub assembly problems with one replacement in 2011, lighting system work when it want to and has drain five batteries from aaa and advance auto in the past seven years, ABS/engine light stays on since 2007 and after 10 years is gasket problems with gm products. I have talk to gm executive office that fix the hub assembly and tailgate recalls problem in 2011 but unwilling to deal with it now after talking to gm dan. I think I need out side counsel and engineering firm to test and testify on my behave and 2,300 other owners with the same problem. I want new vehicles and setting up a date with congressional oversight committee, and the federal safety agency review my case. I have met with congressional panel investigating gm that want to help me resolve this problem. I been a gm person but seriously looking in the foreign market if I have no serious resolution.

Brake pedal went to the floor. Almost impossible to drive like that. Takes over 100x longer to stop a 3/4 ton truck. I found that the brake lines rusted out. I also found several hundred reports of the same things on gm truck online. I also heard you were investigating this issue already. I wanted to make sure I am counted as one of the effected people. I also read where gm does not consider this a safety issue. I disagree. The line from the master cylinder to the ABS unit blew so I had zero brake pressure and pedal. I think this should be recalled as it is a huge safety issue. I have already spent over $1000 and a week trying to fix this and replace all the rusted line. I still do not have the truck back on the road. Thanks

Brake lines all rotted away near ABS module mounted in frame. I had to take to a shop to get all line replace from ABS module forward. This truck has never been near salt ever. 100,000 miles and already relining the truck! Fuel lines look like they only have a few months left. This is a danger and a huge waste of money for a buyer I have had other gm cars that are 30 years old with 350,000 miles with factory brake and fuel lines.

At slow speed as I'm coming to a stop I'll feel the ABS brakes kick in and the pedal will go down some more and steering wheel kick to the left and the truck will move a little farther instead of stopping.
