My brake lights all went out at the same time. I was driving on the interstate and had to stop suddenly. The tractor trailer behind me nearly rear ended me. The cruise control also went out. I had this issue repaired under recall number 06030 five years ago. It is identically the same, yet chevrolet says they will not repair it due to mileage and vehicle age. This is extremely dangerous.

I have replaced the light several times and nothing works. Also, 1 week ago, the abs failure message appeared. There are multiple complaints with this problem and frankly, both of my issues are safety concerns. Gm has installed defective parts…

For the past couple of years there has been a problem with my anti-lock brakes. When applying the brakes, the brake pedal vibrates excessively as if the anti-lock brakes are activating. After a short time driving, an abs warning light activates indicating a fault. I am very concerned because first, the brakes do not act in the way a driver would expect and when applying the brakes i get concerned every time that the…

The rear brakes lock up at slow speeds, especially when slowing down to stop. They will do this in such a way that catches you off guard and throws you forward into the steering wheel. This has nearly caused a few serious accidents because the lock up takes away control of the truck. The severity of the lock ups varies somewhat. They may lock then unlock but they can just as easily lock up and bring the truck to a…
