The abs system failed when braking on a snowy, icy, slippery road locking all four wheels causing the vehicle to skid out of control. the brake light and abs light and tcs icon were displayed. the brakes had to be released to regain steering control and judicious use of manual braking eventually brought the vehicle to a stop. the abs pump motor was noted running continuously even with the engine off. onstar diagnostics indicated a traction control system error. this braking failure occurred in conditions that the abs is specifically designed to prevent loss of control!
For no apparent reason the stabilitrack service indicator will activate in a variety of settings, ie low speed on a road, high speed on an interstate, parked in a parking, etc. i have taken the vehicle to our local gmc dealer and they are unable to replicate the issue or locate a code that is occurring when this warning indicator activates; this occurred last week and as recently as this morning while i was driving to work
When we first bought the vehicle we received the error message: antilock brakes & stabilitrak problems & wheel vibrated terribly. took it in, they said it was the computer and fixed it. this morning error re: anti lock brake problem and no brake fluid (put in a whole can) and error traction off (but we did not turn it off) this is a new vehicle and we could get killed or kill another if there is a brake failure. this should be a recall and gm should buy back the vehicle from us. thank you for any help you can give us. *tr
