Brake lines rusted through front passenger side causing minor accident dec 2015 separate incident:: high-pressure fuel line rusted through causing fuel to spray around the front of gas tank area unnoticed for 2 trips. thankfully no fire resulted.
The suv does not stop and the abs activates when coming to a stop (approximately 5 mph). i noticed there is gm recall no. 05068 but my model is not included. that is strange because all of the suv and pickup trucks around that time are included, my model is not. abs light sometimes is on and sometimes not during these episodes. this safety issue happens periodically over many years with this vehicle.
While traveling at very slow speeds, i have noticed that the vehicle takes longer than usual to stop. when i apply the brakes the vehicle will continue to move before coming to a complete stop. brakes are in good condition, brake fluid is at the right level and it is not leaking any brkae fluid at all. the vehicle takes longer to stop and could cause an accident if not inspected by manufacturer. request a one time inspection on barake system on this model and any other model that uses the same brake/parts for braking systems. there is a nhtsa recall # 05v379000 pertaining to the hydraulic antilock brakes, howver some vin#s are not included in this recall even though my vehicle is experiencing the same symptoms and seem to get worse.
Driving on interstate and was slowing down to exit onto off-ramp. brakes went to floor. was able to coast and use emergency brake to stop vehicle. after getting the vehicle home, found the right back metal brake line was leaking with a hole in it and was rusted. never had a brake line rust and go bad in 60 years. i saw there is a investigation with the chevy brake lines corroding. *tr
I was turning left into a parking lot in dry weather and the anti-lock brakes kicked in when they should not have. i complained about this previously, but was not aware that this should not have happened and my complaint stated that they did not work properly when they came on almost causing a wreck. this has happened several times since, most recently yesterday. i was trying to stop at 8 mph, the abs came on, they pulled my vehicle to the left, and i have 106,870 miles on her now. my brake pedals is going lower to the floorboard each year and i have been told that this is normal and it cannot be adjusted! my master cylinder is not leaking, nor is my brake fluid at this time. i have had my front calipers replaced twice! i maintain my vehicle and have a lot of money put in my black beauty, with repair records to show for it. i have my children and friends ride with me and do not want to injure/kill them or anyone, myself included! you need to do something about this! *tr
Brakes do not seem to be as affective as they should be. it takes a long distance to get the vehicle stopped. we have had the brakes replaced and even the master cylinder but does not seem to affect the stopping power of the brakes. the brakes just don't seem to be working the way they should be for this vehicle. *tr
