Abs light has been coming on and going off since last month. Now, ABS light is staying on. Brake pedal must be pushed all the way down, and this results in extended stopping distance. The problem is occurring at any speed. This problem occurs during all weather conditions, and problem is gradual worsening. Vehicle has been regularly serviced. Service records are available. In addition, keyless entry system has not been working. It has been repaired in the past. Now the keyless entry system hatch in not working again.*ak
Consumer states: going at low speeds the brakes tend to give way,. Heard a noise, the brakes just failed, no matter of the weather conditions.
Defective ABS brakes. Having taken to gmc dealer to repair multiple times with no solution. They want to charge me more when it should be covered under service warranty and should have been resolved initially. Whenever I step on brakes to slow down the car would skid which service dealer advised brake system problem but no resolution.
I have a 1999 gmc yukon with ABS brakes and for some reason at high speed it very impossible to stop my vehical even at 20 mile per hour.I had my brakes replaced around 4 times ranging from factory to top of the line brakes and rotors
Rotors warped, replaced jun 2001 at 10,000 miles, and again on apr 2005, at 56,000, used under normal driving conditions.
Any recall on this vehicle? No safety defect listed.
Complained to dealer of soft brakes! Dealer replaced brake pads which are still available for inspection. No wear or chatter problems. Brakes are so soft that they are dangerous. Dealer has been oblivious to complaints. All are like this!!!!!!!
No summary listed for above vehicle.
Master cylinder was replaced on two different occasions. Vehicle has been taken to dealer on six different occasions for brake problems. Dealer has provided repairs under warranty until last time. Consumer has had another mechanic to inspect brakes, and mechanic found that rotors were wearing out unevenly, causing other parts to damage. *ak the brakes were poor and not safe.
Braking system has had to be repaired/worked on 4 times since june of 1999. Please provide any additional information/attachments.
Had taken vehicle to dealer for brake service on front disc brakes due to wear on disc. Work after 15000 miles had to be performed again due to disk wearing out. Consumer believed that brakes were not heavy enough for vehicle. *ak disc warped causing vibrations and brake failure. The disc was turned a t 15k miles and was replaced at 28k. Transmission does not hold on hills. Front end was leaking due to front pinion seal failure ..
While trying to stop on wet or slightly moist pavement brakes fail.*ak the vehicle goes extended distance after applying brakes. The problem occurs intermittently.
Brakes lock when applied in wet rainy conditions.
While driving about any speed could step on brakes pedal to stop or to reduce speed, but the pedal will go to floor, resulting in extended stopping distance.
Consumers was having problems on right side of vehicle. Brake pads chewed into rotors in september 1999. Dealer had no explanation for problem. Also, bolt broke to tension bar at right front. Dealer was inspecting vehicle at this time.
The front calipers are sticking, the brake pads have been checked and one is worn half the thickness of the other. Nlm
Consumer approached a light, applied brakes, and it started vibrating violently. This happpened intermittently. Vehicle did not stop smoothly. Consumer will contact the dealer.
Basically consumer was having a problem with ABS braking system. When applying brake pedal, pedal stuck and ruined rotors. Also, air conditioning went out three times due to a hole inside of vent area. *ak check engine light came on due to faulty harness. Transmission slips on acceleration. The engine runs rough at idle. Button on left front seat rattles. Right front outer brake pad was worn. Vehicle pulls left when applying brake.
While going down a small grade on wet road applied brakes before coming to a complete stop, and brakes locked up, causing vehicle to slide. This has happened also during dry conditions.
Wet brake problem causes concern that brakes will lock when applied while driving in wet rainy conditions. Steering problems experienced while driving on freeway, can create situation of over steering, causing loss of control.
When brakes are applied pedal becomes soft and goes to the floor, resulting in extended stopping distance. Dealer has repaired and replaced various parts of the braking system three times, but problem still exists.
Brakes begin feeling harder to stop, feeling & hearing air as the pedal needs to be pressed harder & closer to the floor. A lot of room in braking activity, pressing brake does not slow, need to have foot pedal to floor.
The metal hydraulic brake line running from the master cylinder to the passenger side front disc brake assembly ruptured, causing the vehicle to lose its braking power while the vehicle was being driven. This line crosses the front of the vehicle and then runs on top of the frame just under where the battery is located. After inspecting and finding the hole it was very apparent that battery acid/corrosion had dripped onto the line,, causing it to be eaten away. The battery is orginal equipment and maintanance free.
Brakes pull left, been in 3 times to fix, also pedal almost hits floor.
Brakes pull left, excess pedal travel - serviced 3 times.
While driving atless than 5mph light snow fell on ground. Counsumer was maneuvering around backyard and applied foot to the brakes, and brake pedal went to the floor furhter than the accelerator,causing consumer to keep moving/ didn't stop, and crashed into a tree. Consumer was not hurt. Dealer was contacted and checked brake system.
When the brake pedal was applied the anti-skid brake system engaged, resulting in extended stopping distance. Consumer had to stand on the pedal with both feet, and the pedal went to the floor before vehicle finally cruised to a complete stop. Dealer has been contacted.
Owner applied brakes quickly and ABS caused extended stopping distance. Owner had to apply full weight to pedal using both feet to eventually stop vehicle to avoid collision. In my 25 years of driving I have never felt so unsafe.
While driving on highway another vehicle was switching lanes. Consumer went to hit the brakes, and vehicle kept going, went into the median. Also, was pulsating when applying the brakes. Contacted dealer, who stated that the rotors were warped.
