Three problems related to brake electric antilock have been reported for the 1998 Chevrolet Corvette. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Sometimes. After turning into an intersection, the abs engage and slows the vehicle to 5 mph and there is oncoming traffic.
The car was on the freeway at 70mph when the anti skid light came on and the car suddenly decelerated to 15mph. Several attempts were made to correct the problem to no avail.
Started to experience a vibration in the front end upon application of brakes at approximately 5000 miles. This condition continued to occur. The front brake rotors were resurfaced at 8678 miles. This was a temporary solution. By 15000 miles the same condition returned, front end vibration causing the steering wheel to shake when applying the brakes. This was very noticable at freeway speeds. The dealer replaced the front rotors at 15613 miles. At around 20,000 miles this condition returned, front end vibration steering wheel shake when brakes applied. Once again the front rotors were resurfaced. They do not seem to grasp the fact that this is not correcting the problem. In addition to the front rotors there have been two occasions that upon hard (emergency) type braking the abs system did not appear to function correct. On both occasions there was an excessive amount of brake release which nearly caused an collison.
