Driving slowly up to a stop sign coming out of the target store in shoreview, minnesota. The abs anti-lock brake system activated and made the truck difficult to stop. The vehicle went through the stop sign but did not collide with any oncoming traffic. According to many other incidences described online, the exact same thing is happening to others. In the northern "salt belt", rust and corrosion gathers around the front brake sensors and pulls them upwards sending the wrong signal to the computer. There is already a recall on some Chevrolet trucks pre-2005 for the very same reason. This is a very dangerous situation and preventable if gm would solve the problem once and for all.
Abs unit on front brakes malfunctions at low speed. The abs sensors mistakenly releases brake pressure, as vehicle slows to a stop, thinking the wheel is skidding. This release of brake pressure lengthens the stopping distance, which could result in a low speed crash.
Many electrical issues involving sensors. Wheel sensors needed replace twice. Non functional cruise control. Brake lines,transmission lines and gas lines very rusty. Two brake line failures luckily both were stationary. . All lines need replaced.
The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that the abs would independently engage when driving at low speeds. The dealer was contacted who advised that they would need to clean the sensor and then replace them accordingly. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was not contacted in regards to the failure. The failure mileage was 73,000.
2007 chevy silverado classic crew cab: low speed pulsation of brakes, if I wasn't use to this condition, it could cause loss of control. I have this problem on and off since I purchased it back in may of 2010, the dealer replaced rotors and pads. It worked fine for a few thousand miles. Then the problem rear up again, I thought it was worn or faulty pads, replaced the pads, still pulsates. Had the bearings and rotors checked, no issue there. So here I am with the same problem and not solution. I've owned this vehicle for almost 7 years and the problem is intermittent. Chevy needs to own this. It has to be faulty sensor or corroded brake lines. Please help!!!!!.
