4 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 01/23/2012

I have problem with my (abs) and my tailgate.

5 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 05/08/2008

My 2000 Chevrolet started to activate the abs when stopping, but only within the last 5 mph before stopping, I did some research and found that this was a known issue and there is currently a TSB, 020525006, open for the issue. Is followed the TSB as I am mechanically inclined, test drove the truck and nearly ran into the wall on the back side of my garage. I pulled the fuse to the abs module and the truck stops without any issue. I also found a recall for all of the Chevrolet full size trucks, model year 1999-2002. The description of the issue is the exact same as the issue I am dealing with. I also found out that the brake configuration is the same as the full size trucks. There are S10's with a different configuration, but mine is the same as the full size trucks. I am currently driving with the abs disconnected. To get the vehicle inspected, I am going to put it back in so that I can get the truck inspected as I do not have the time to get it fixed. The fix for this I believe is to have the hub replaced as that is where the corrosion exists.
