Brake Sensor problem #1

While coming to a stop in my 2001 chevy Trailblazer the brake system (abs) keeps engaging causing it not to stop. I have went through many stop signs and intersections from not being able to stop. Changed all the brakes ,bleed the brakes and put new sensors on. . Still having the same issues . I have read that gm knows that this is a flaw in the design ,what can be done about it?.
