I have had extreme braking problems that are still not fixed. Under normal city driving conditions, brakes are very slow to stop regardless of how much pressure I put on them and occasionally lock up. I must release the brake pedal and pump it to catch so the car will come to a stop. 2 months ago, a woman stopped at the last minute in front of me. I hit my brakes with more than enough room to stop (2-3 car lengths). They locked up and made their normal grinding noise. I hit her car causing damage to both vehicles. Last month, while trying to slow down to pay at a toll booth, I had to literally stand on my brake pedal to stop the truck. The toll booth attendant jumped out of the booth in fear that I was going to crash. The same thing happens coming off the highway at 45 miles per hour. I can't get another vehicle, but this one is going to kill my children and I. I have replaced the booster, pads twice, rotors, and the thing attached to the booster. Have I missed a recall? help me!!

I was slowing down to come to a stop when my brakes failed. The more I pressed my brakes the faster the truck started to accelerate and the rear tires were spinning. I pressed the emergency brakes and they failed also. The only way of stopping was for me to throw it in park. While trying to brake the brake went to the floor.

Also on different occasions, going from grass to dirt road in 2 wheel drive mode, ABS took over and caused severe increase in braking distance. 1995, Chevrolet, Blazer has a recall for this problem but GM said my VIN# [xxx] was not on the recall list.

Intermittently the brake pedal is depressed, mostly in a panic situation, brake feels engaged, but instead a moaning noise occurs, followed by brake failure. Vehicle like it's skidding on ice. When this occurs consumer has to bump the brake pedal for the brakes to engage. The entire braking system and the front end were replaced, but the failure recurred. ABS recall 99V193000 was issued on this problem, but this vehicle was not included in the recall due to VIN.

In rush hour traffic, normal braking situation upon coming upon stopped traffic ahead. Brake pedal would barly move down when depressed hard (stood upon). Vehicle brakes did not apply. Vehicle continued to act as if throttle was simply released (coasting). Steered through traffic onto grass median, rolled to near stop. At about 5 mph, brake pedal made three distict "jumps" to floorboard and brakes then applied. Car stopped. No ABS light came on. Brake rotors and pads replaced 3 weeks earlier. Ball joints replaced 2 weeks earlier. Then experienced progressily worse brake pedal resistance ( no movement upon pressure) intermitancy and complained of problem to dealer on day before event. Similar shorter events happened prior days but with less "startling" result. Experience very intermitant, perhaps 1 time out of 200 braking attempts. On 6/13/02, dealer checked ABS computer, no codes stored. Released back to driver. On day of event (6/14/02), returned directly to dealer, who road tested car with "tech/2" monitor attached. Monitoring revealed need to replace both front hub assemblies. Both hub assemblies replaced same day, tech/2 monitoring afterward found system normal.
