Tl*the contact owns a 1994 oldsmobile bravada. Whenever the contact drives over a damp patch on the road and applies the brakes, the brake pedal extends all the way to the floor. As a result, the braking distance increased. The failure has occurred numerous times while driving 45 MPH. Through online research, the contact found recalls and tsb's on his vehicle for the same failure. The manufacturer stated that his VIN was not included in the federal safety agency campaign id number 99i006000 (service brakes, hydraulic:antilock); therefore, nothing could be done. The contact believes that his vehicle should be included and repaired for free since the failures are identical. The VIN was unknown. The failure mileage was 110,000 and current mileage was 130,000.

Fuel pump/ after driving up a hill I went to merge into a lane, my car stalled losing all power as a car nearly re -ended us I quickly started it again to immediatedly stall again. Tow truck came and it sits at the house until I get some answers. I also don't understand about the egr valve recall I had replaced 4 times but it is not listed on the recall list (aka) silent recall. How many more are missing?
Consumer stated that when driving at high speeds there were brake problems. Dealer notified. *ak the problem was with the ABS brakes sensors on the front wheels. As the dirt guard rusted, particles of the plate had fallen and ruined the speed sensor and caused false signals to the computer which locked the brake pedal. *scc
The brake light indication flashed while driving, and when the brakes were depressed, the vehicle experienced extended stopping distance. *ak the yellow ABS light blinked, then the red brake light blinked when theconsumer attempted to stop the vehicle. The consumer found on the internet, that the plugged filters in the hydro/electric ABS unit must be replaced with the new modified unit.
The driver has experienced several intermittent brake failures while driving none of which have resulted in an accident, the dealer replaced the speed sensor but the brake failure reoccured three weeks later.nlm
Consumer was attempting to make a normal stop at 15mph ,applied brakes and vehicle took at least twice as long to stop.engine turned off while vehicle was trying to stop. Consumer will be contacting a mechanic to determine cause. *ak master cylinder had to be replaced.
Brakes failed to stop car. Real hard to push down.
On occasion, brakes fails and engine revs when brakes are used at slow speeds. I thought there was a recall on this in august 1999, but I never received anything. It was on the news. There is no special time this occurs, nor is there any warning before it happens.
Cosnumer has to stand on brakes to get them to stop vehicle. Brakes do not stop vehicle the way that they should. Took vehicle to dealer, and they are aware of the problem.
There is a recall on the same brake system for blazers but not for this auto. There is a tech bulliten. But this problem happens all the time when stopping on a bumpy surface. The brakes fail & this problem needs to be corrected. I want to know why there is a recall on the blazers with the same brake system but not for the oldsmobiles?
