Incident #1 abs brakes failed coming to a stop from interstate off ramp going down a hill. Applied brakes and when veh speed got below 10mph brake pedal pushed back against my foot causing vehicle to come to a stop in the middle of a four line highway. Note: no traffic lights at this intersection and vehicle sppeed limit was 55 mph for on highway users. That was second time this has happened to this truck. Incident #2 transmission failure at approx 80,000 miles. Gm did cover the repairs after I paid good willed deductable only so that I would have valid warranty on replacement transmission for future failure. Dealer stated that first and reverse clutches had welded themselves together. Incident #3 had 26 foot travel traviler hooked to truck, loaded family of four in vehicle to begin our trip, started truck applied brake pedal shifted into gear pulled approx 100 ft to turn left onto two lane highway, applied brakes and pedal went to floor. Turned hard right to avoid oncoming car traveling at 55 mph and ran off into 2 foot ditch taking trailer with truck and luckly enough trailer got hung on bumper and stoped vehicle. Nerviously I had wife get out of truck and get in drivers seat apply brake pedal pressure to find that rear brake line on left frame rail had rusted through. The condition of this truck which has been garage kept has left me baffled as now both left and right rocker panels have rusted completly out as well as rusted out brake backing plates and the bed side wheel openings have started to bubble from rust. I feel as if I have purchased a complete lemon as well as a danger to myself and family. What will fail next? fuel lines spraying gas? this vehicle is housed in virginia!.

The abs brake system fails at slow speeds making it almost impossible to stop the vehicle. The first time it happened I nearly entered a busy highway as I was unable to stop promptly. After a few days it happened again and I nearly hit a building as I was trying to stop in a parking space. It was obvious that this was a safety problem. However the authorized repair facility would not make the necessary repairs unless I paid the bill. They had to clean the abs sensors to correct this problem.

Gm has had and still has numerous problems with their abs. My 1998 silverado has at least 12 times lost braking when hitting a small bump in the road usually coming to a stop. I have actually slid past stop signs and into busy intersections, luckily no damage yet. But what am I supposed to tell the police when they see me slide past a stop sign? "OH, you see, this gm truck has a known problem with the brakes". Is gm going to pay for the ticket or worse, property and liability claims when I actually do hit a person or another vehicle? I have seen nearly 250 individual complaints on this issue on the NHTSA website. Some that led to crashes and damage. My question when will NHTSA force gm to recognize and recall their abs failures???? gm won't recognize this because it will cost millions to resolve this. It's always easier for them to ignore the problem and blame the "stupid" consumer for not knowing how to use their abs brakes. This problem goes back as far as 1995 year models and continues on current production models. Gm knows there is problems with their abs systems, but continues to slap them in their new models. Please NHTSA - force gm to recall their abs brakes in all the affect model years!!!!!!.
