Three problems related to service brakes have been reported for the 2003 GMC Safari. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 07/08/2014

. I would like to report the incident I had with my automobile: GMC Safari wagon 2003. One day in July this year (2014) I applied the brakes of the above vehicle when I was approaching the red traffic light. The vehicle did not stop even through the break system was recently worked on. I investigated the reason why it failed to stop and found out that the break line was heavily corroded.

2 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 08/18/2011

Abs system defect. When slowing down to stop, at very low speed (about 5 mph) abs engages, although there is no need for it. This causes a "floating" sensation, making control of the stopping point uncertain, unlike normal braking. This has been going on for about 2 months. Most recently, car is pulling to right during the stop, when abs engages.

3 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 04/07/2011

My abs system is the same as the other complaints. I will press on the brakes and it acts like I have no brakes. I took it to a repair shop yesterday and they said the part would cost $1,310. 00 for one part alone. Why haven't there been a recall on this situation. Before someone does get hurt.
