Brake Sensor problems of the 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe

This vehicle was leaking oil from the engine, front and back brakes were faulty, the starter was going bad, the electrical system for the back windows were not in working condition. The vehicle would display sensor lights to have the vehicle engine checked but then after about 2 days it would not show a displaying message it would also effect the audio fuse that allows the audio system to function. The tires were bald on the front driver side and left back passenger side. The seat belts were difficult to enter into latch in order to secure seatbelt.

The contact owns a 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated that while coming to a stop, the abs activated independently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed that the sensor and the wheel bearing needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was previously repaired under NHTSA campaign number: 05v379000 (service brakes). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 145,000.

Noticed wet spot in driveway and checked to see what the problem was. Turned out it was major leak from corroded brake line; no warning lights ever came on but brake fluid was almost empty by the time we got it to the mechanic the next morning. Thank goodness my husband was diligent enough to notice the leak as we were getting ready to drive the 8 hours back home through the mountains and a brake failure could have been catastrophic. We had the brake line repaired and now 4 weeks later, another leak has occurred and again, no warning lights have come on. I could almost tolerate the issue of the corroded lines if the sensors adequately told me that the vehicle was not operating correctly. But, the fact that I now feel like I am driving a vehicle that may or may not stop when I need it to and have no indication of the failure before hand is very scary. I have read through the complaints, and I am not the only one that has experienced this. I do not understand why this has been an open investigation for 2 years and nothing yet has been done about this.

The contact owns a 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated when coming to a stop and depressing the brakes, the abs sensor would engage independently and cause the vehicle to lunge forward.

The manufacturer was contacted but provided no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 47,663 and the current mileage was 91,000. Updated 03/10/11 updated 03/14/11.

The consumer's 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe has anti lock brake issues. When trying to apply the brakes vehicle did not come to a complete stop. Saw recall 05068 t on NHTSA's website. The dealer will not commit to do a recall remedy. And gm did feel it has to do a recall. The car was unsafe to drive. My wife drove into a intersection and fortunately nobody got hurt. The sensors would pulsate and cause the vehicle not to stop.

The 2002 Tahoe abs defect in them. Called gm they are not going to warranty the vehicles in new hampshire, because they have not received a recall letter. There is no recall in new hampshire, because they are recall the ones canada. The brakes at a slow speed are activating, and took to a gm dealer and gm will not reimburse. Testing and found the abs sensors corroded and gap spread, per gm tech at dealership. The consumer has corrected the problem at own expense and wants reimbursment!!.
