14 problems related to brake electric antilock have been reported for the 2000 Chevrolet Blazer. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The abs gradually came on. When applying the brakes, the wheels lock up and the Blazer skids about a foot. I have had numerous near accidents because of the abs. I took the Blazer into the Chevrolet dealership and they ran the VIN. I was told that there are no recalls for my Blazer. However, according to the NHTSA website, there are two recalls (00v055000 & 99v220000). I would like to know whether or not there are any recalls.
Abs activates while braking at low speeds causing an increased stopping distance which has nearly resulted in hitting pedestrians or other vehicles. This happens several times daily.
Live in TN, often travel to mi anti-lock brake pump would engage at 10 mph when braking in normal conditions. Same problem and solution as the vehicles in gm's current truck and SUV recall, but this is a 2000 Blazer.
Going about 30 mph to enter freeway on onramp, I put on my brakes as traffic was slowing. Traffic then slowed quickly and I pushed brakes down harder and pedal went to the floor and car didnt stop causing me to hit the back for the car in front of me. I contacted the dealership and was told that was a problem with abs brakes at slower stopping speeds and that nothing could be done to correct it and that nothing would show on the computer. I called a brake shop and was basicly told the same thing. That abs brakes at slow speeds are a problem, they could put it on a machine to check codes but were 99. 9% sure as usual it would show nothing.
2000 Blazer anti-lock brakes do not stop the vehicle. Two years ago this caused an accident when I hit the car in front of me at a stop sign. The vehicle had done this quite a few times before this, both in wet and dry weather. I had the vehicle looked at by two different dealerships and they could find nothing wrong. I currently keep the anti-lock brakes unplugged as they are not safe. You think you are stopping and then the car lunges forward as the brake acts up. The accident caused me to get a ticket and have higher insurance premiums.
