When coming to a stop and suddenly without warning, my brakes began pulsating rapidly, eventually stopping about 10 feet beyond where I intended to stop. Fortunately there were no vehicles in front of me an none coming through the intersection. Shortly afterwards, I had the vehicles brake system evaluated only to find out the root cause is the anti-lock brake sensors activating due to corrosion and rusting. I was informed that this issue has been typical with these models of vehicles for many years. In reading online posts, I seen this is a common and known issue, but the dealer does not recognize it, therefore a recall should be issued because this is a serious safety concern which could have resulted in bodily injury or death!.
Abs low speed activation. As I was stopping around 5 mphs abs would start to activate causing the truck to not stop correctly. This would happen most of the time when stopping. Took truck to devoe chevy dealer ,alexandria indiana, for repair. Both front abs hub sensors needed replaced and hubs cleaned at cost of $359. 10 truck has only 55900 miles.
Anti-lock brake sensor allows salty water to enter, abs activates at low speeds every stop every day.
