Brake Abs Warning Light problems of the 2006 Chevrolet Equinox

Within the last month while I am driving my truck would just cut off with out any warning in the middle of traffic. I have had a tune up, the left wheel barring changed, front struts done and I have just brought a pcm. My abs and tc lights stays on and my mechanic can not explain why it keeps cutting off. I have checked for recalls for this year and there are none listed; however, I have seen some on the NHTSA service bulletin. Can someone please assist me this is very dangerous!!!!.

We have noticed the abs and tc lights intermittently light up on the instrument panel upon braking/turning to the left, as well as, when braking/hitting a bump or rough terrain. We have taken to a mechanic to be told they would not be able to fix anything to do with this; that this is a dealership issue. This is a cause for concern due to the fact our 75 year old mother doesn't drive it all the time; however, when she does drive, we are worried for her safety and our children's safety when they're with her. I am shocked gm has not recalled this.

Tl-the contact owns a 2006 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact wanted to no if she had open recalls on her vehicle. The contact stated that on may 21,2015 the abs lights came on. The contact stated that she was going 35 mph. The contact had a failure in here brakes. The manufacture was not contacted, however she did have the vehicle towed to a independent dealer. The failure was not repair. The approximate mileage 16500. I did refer the contact to her manufacture at:800-222-1020. Kc.

The contact owns a 2006 Chevrolet Equinox. While driving at slow speeds with the brake pedal depressed, an abnormal noise was heard. The brakes seized and the abs warning light illuminated. The failure was persistent. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the failure could not be determined. The contact repaired the brakes, but the failure recurred numerous times. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 133,785.

The contact owns a 2006 Chevrolet Equinox. The contact stated that the abs brake hub and wheel bearings failed on the front driver and passenger sides of the vehicle. The vehicle would shutter when attempting to stop. The contact mentioned that the abs light illuminated on the instrument panel and the vehicle made a beeping sound when the failure occurred. The vehicle was taken to a dealer. The technician confirmed that the abs hub and bearing needed to be replaced. The failure mileage was 58,000.

It was very hard to apply brakes. They did not work. The abs and tc lights on dash board come on intermittently. The car at low speed hit a post due to brakes not working. This problem could lead to more dangerous situations.

While driving, either just getting into the car and pulling out of a parking space or having driven for a distance, when pushing on the breaks to stop the vehicle, they grind and the car doesn't stop. Sometimes, there is just a grinding sound and I don't bother pushing on the breaks because I know that they will not work. I took it to a shop and was told that my breaks looked fine. I will drive for a while and it may not happen again for days. Then it starts up again. . . . The grinding. It is sometimes accompanied by the tc and/or the abs light illuminating on the dashboard. Once I cut the car off and restart, the light(s) may go out. I have taken the car into the shop (both a dealer repair and an independent repair shop) and was told that they couldn't tell what the problem is. They have mentioned that the issue could be electrical, but none can confirm. Research on this site confirms that it is not just my vehicle. I do regular maintenance on my vehicle and yet this still happened. Chevy needs to take a look at this and provide a solution. This is dangerous.

I am the owner of a 2006 Chevrolet Equinox. Begining in February of 2013, noticed that abs and tc light were coming on while driving, and that front backs had cruching and grinding sound, and would jam when brakes were hit. Had front brake replaced, and new tires put on, and still had the same problem happening. Took it to dan vaden dealership on Feb 26, 2013, was informed that they could not find anything wrong with the vechile. On March 6, 2013 while pressing brakes they jammed, and had to pull vehicle off road not to hit vehicle in front of me. On March 7, 2013 took vehicle back to dan vanden dealership, they said they replaced the left front hub assembley for a charge of 593. 28 (labor and other fees). When I picked the vehicle up that evening and drove 1/2 mile the abs and tracking light came back on while driving. Drove vehicle back to dealership. I was given a courtesy vehicle for a week until they could figure out what was wrong. It is now June and I am experiencing the same problem of the abs and tc light coming on, and brakes jamming. I have also seen alot of complaints on google regarding this problem with the same vehicle. Would like to know why this problem has not been reported.

I would press the brake and it felt like the anti-lock brake was engaged. After a few times, the abs light came on the dashboard. In October 2012, I took it to a Chevrolet dealer to get it diagnosed and fixed. They replaced the left front abs sensor. Then I went for almost a month without an incident and now it has started again. I took it back to the dealer, this last week of Nov. 2012, and they told me that they will not replace the sensor because the abs light is not on, and that they are not just going to tear into everything because they are not sure what is wrong. I am worried about my safety of myself and those with whom I travel.

When driving my vehicle at speeds of 10-35mph my brakes lock up and make a loud grinding noise. The pedal pushes back at me and it is difficult to stop. It's almost as if the vehicle is trying to accelerate when I'm trying to stop it. The problem eventually fixes itself by turning off its abs system. . . The abs and tc lights come on and then I don't have another problem until I have turned off the vehicle and turned it back on again. It happens everytime I get in my car. . . And sometime does not correct itself until reaching higher speeds. I have had many occurrences when I was almost in an accident because of the inability to stop. I have contacted gm and my local dealer. . . It was diagnosed as an abs module that needs replacing. On their own gm forums there are hundreds of people with this same problem (among many others with this model). . . I guess someone will have to die before they recall this.

I heard a thumping noise from what felt like under my feet. I then tried to push on the brakes, only having the pedal give a great amount of resistance with loud abs noises. It will continue doing this until both my traction control light and abs light come on. I had my brakes checked and they said everything was good. And of course it was out of my 50000 mile warranty. I still drive cautiously and try to get the lights on as quickly as possible when driving my children around so that we aren't seriously injured. Not until I started researching the problems I'm having with this particular vehicle did I realize I wasn't the only one. The brakes are the first to mention. . . Then there's the ac/heater problem it won't blow hot air, and it won't blow cool air when stopped at a red light. Then that loud clunking noise made when I'm driving over bumps that sound like my front end is going to fall off. Oh and the fact that my speedometer will only increase by 3-5 mph increments. The dealer said they couldn't find anything wrong, after getting a speeding ticket by a camera light it was taken into a speed shop who verified its absolutely not working correctly. They couldn't even give me a reading because its broken. Nice!!!!! seriously is someone going to have to die, or seriously injured before someone steps up and takes responsibility?.

Abs and tc light comes on and brakes give in and will not stop as before. 2006 Chevrolet Equinox. Different codes and readings when hooked up on machine by mechanic. Master cylinder and sensor, left front hub bearing replaced with sensor and abs module replaced. Still same problem.

I own a 2006 chevy Equinox that we had bought new, now the abs and tc lights come out and the brakes will grind and unless you pump the brakes it won't stop. I took the brakes to be changed twice in a year and no results so far. Wife drives the vehicle and now recently has had more problems stopping and being close to crashing. I'm now looking to get rid off this vehicle ASAP. Took it to dealers they had no idea what it was but did charge around 400. 00 dollars each time for new brakes.
