Constant activation of abs brakes due to corrosion between the front hub/bearing assembly and/or the speed sensor being defective. This issue is being addressed by gm on some vehicles but they won't fix mine because they say it's not in the VIN number range. The problem is very real and very dangerous. It started almost 12 months ago, and I was told to wait for the state of wisconsin to be added to the recall list, they have added wisconsin but have selected certain VIN numbers only that the bulletin applies to.
