The abs system on my 2000 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 failed to operate properly. It activated while stopping at slow speeds. There is a product safety recall issued #050683 front wheel speed sensor corrosion. The Chevrolet dealership refused to repair under the recall because the vehicle is now registered in kansas, however missouri is covered. I guess less than an inch of geography makes the difference between what is safe and covered and what is not safe and covered. I paid to have it repaired for the safety issues concerned. I purchased the used vehicle in missouri, and it was registered and driven in missouri. I put most of the miles driving to work in missouri. I'm confused about the logic at gm. Will be the last gm vehicle in my life.
My 2000 Chevrolet Suburban at low speeds (around 10 miles per hour)the abs braking system will engage for no reason. This action extends my stopping distance and on several occasions almost causes an accidents. I'm told it is a problem with the speed sensors on the front wheels.
