Brake Sensor problems of the 2000 GMC Sierra 1500

Went to stop and the brake pedal pushed against my foot instead of going down. Was moving slowly and the brake pedal instead of stopping the car pushed my foot up from the brake pedal and I went over a parking brake. Mechanic verified that when wheel sensor goes bad the vehicle thinks the brakes are locking up and the abs system goes on pumping brake pedal. Happened multiple times as approached stop lights pushing me into intersection instead of stopping. . I believe when the wheel sensor is bad it should not put me or others in a dangerous situation.

Thank goodness no one was hurt, and no vehicle hit when my brake lines burst on this vehicle. When repaired the mechanic said they basically rotted off from rust and that this is a very common problem on these vehicles. I understand some maintenance is normal on any truck, but being able to use your fingers to crumble parts of the brake line is not. You need to investigate this before people are hurt or killed, if some haven't been already. You also need to revisit the abs sensor problem from the previous recall. That fix did not work, so all I could do is disconnect them or chance an accident!!!!!!!!!!.

Anti lock brake sensor corrosion causes low speed braking failure. Diving at less than 5 mph was terrifying. Almost hitting pedestrians at a crosswalk, rolling into an intersection, and almost hitting a stopped car in front of me. I took the truck to the dealer and they verified the corroded sensors. This was a recalled issue already complied with. No help from gm. They said the burden was mine.

Tl the contact owns a 2000 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired per NHTSA campaign number: 05v379000 (service brakes, hydraulic) by wehr Ford (11311 us-60 bus, mountain grove, mo 65711, (417) 926-3192). The contact stated that the dealer only cleaned the abs sensor for corrosion. Years later, the brake pedal failed to respond due to internal corrosion regarding the sensor. Also, the abs kept intermittently activating and caused extreme difficulty when braking. The brake pedal failed to stop the vehicle and caused the driver to have to reverse more than twice to prevent a crash. The dealer was notified of the failures and indicated that the abs sensor may need to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was not available.

The consumer stated that the abs system activated when the speed was at 10 mph on his 2000 GMC pickup truck. The front wheel sensor was replaced on the front end. The dealer said that the abs was inoperative and were not working correctly. The truck was out of warranty and the owner had to pay for the repair work. This happened in 2004. The owner did not contact the manufacturer at the time of problem. The consumer has not had any problems with the truck since then.
