I own a 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe. It has a severe brake problem. Sometimes when you are going under 40 and step on the brakes the abs seems to activate making a loud noise and the vehicle does not want to stop unless you stand on the brakes and then it stops slowly. I had a complete brake job done and it didn't get any better even though I took it back 2 more times. . Read more...
