Air Brake Antilock Control Unit/module problem #1

Driving down the road and felt my brakes shutter than heard a whirring noise and lights started coming on saying my antilock bracks needed service. Was told that my truck needed a new antilock pumpand that it was out of warranty by 3000 miles nothing was done up to this point.

Air Brake Abs Warning Light problem #2

I own a 2500hd w/duramax diesel. It has frame beaming defects. Defect was present from the start but was not identified till about 20,000 mi. Truck tearing up tires,vibrating,difficult to steer and getting worse along with developing other problems. Gm has lied and tried to hide that there really is a defect. They would not present any TSB's or any other info reguarding when asked. The truck was vibrating so bad the other night I just all of a sudden blew the r&r tire and almost hit a rock embankment. Tires had less than 18000 miles on them . I bought 2 more just to try to be safe and get there. Please help with any info or advice, anything!.
