I own a 2001 Chevrolet silverado truck the anti- lock brakes will engage for no reason causing increased stopping distances, fortunatly the only thing that was hit was a curb.
Brake anti-lock system cycles at low speeds increasing stopping distance.
Anti- lock brakes engaging when not needed.
Anti lock brake system. You have to push on the brakes with both feet in order to get the truck to stop. I have several friends whom are having the same problem.
While driving and with no warning brakes went out. This could have caused an accident. Cause unknown. Dealer notified.
When applying brakes pedal is soft, and then pedal goes all the way to floor. Dealership is aware of problem.
