Abs sensor fault appears and continues to stay on. When light turns off terrible noise and vibration occurs when braking. I am concerned for the safety of my 3 year old and myself as the brakes do no react as they should. I have taken it and had the brakes replaced, the sensors replaced and the problem continues. After 3 different times in the shop, I am so worried that I am going to cause an accident with my truck. . Read more...
I own a 2005 GMC Canyon. Three weeks out of warenty the abs system began to malfunction. The abs would kick in for no reason. Because it was according to gm out opf the garenty period there was nothing they could do for me. My private garage told me that this was a common problem with the Canyon and used a work around to solve the problem by disabling the abs system because of the high cost of replacing the sensors witch would probably be damaged again when replacing the brake pads.
