2 Brake Antilock Control Unit/module problem of the 2001 Chevrolet 1500

Failure Date: 07/14/2005

While trying to come to a stop upon entering a parking spot in front of a county health bldg. The brake pedal on my truck did not respond. The pedal went hard and the truck continued forward, I applied the brake again with the same results causing the truck to strike the building and destroy a service enterance door. I estimate my speed to have been under 5 mph since the airbag did not deploy. I believe this is the result of a deffective anti-lock brake sensor. As of today I have not been to the dealer to have the failure fixed.

4 Brake Antilock Control Unit/module problem of the 1999 Chevrolet 1500

Failure Date: 01/06/2005

On several different occasions my 1999 Chevrolet silverado 1/2 ton would have a malfunction with the antilock braking system. The problem would occur when I was braking to stop at an intersection or driving into a parking space. Every time the system would have the tendency to increase in speed when applying the brake. At one time it caused very minor damage to a building. Every time it was taken in for service at the local Chevrolet dealership and cleaning was done to the antilock system. I read about the upcoming investigation into this problem and was interested to see if this will be a recall to repair the problems?.
