ABS light came on-brakes started pulsating when not being applied-speedometer started going erratic and engine started downshifting-has contiued to do so since then-contacted Chevy-complaint#C05294058-they claimed no recall-I stated this should be a national safety issue-no way to maintain ABS system and obvious computer problem-since then I have received a copy of a recall letter for 91-96 Blazer with this problem from a friend who has same problem and did receive recall letter-hope you can help me.
Have done everything that I know of to correct the problem. Braking system is still spongy after turning the rotors and drums, installined new pads, and bleeding the front brakes. As far as I know, all recalls have been performed. At the moment it is an accident waiting to happen. Any other complaints about the brakes on 95 Blazer" what can I try next" thanks.
The front brake pads and rotors are prematurely wearing and have to be changed every six months due malfunction with in the brake system. Also, consumer has a concern with the egr valve with has been replaced five times, cause unknown.

Ten + brake failures during the course of four years. Complained to the dealer numerous times - everyone from sales to service denied they had received any complaints about ABS brakes. Have paid dealer twice to replace drums, pads, turn rotors, etc. When I explained what the brakes were doing. This is a major safety hazard.
The vehicle has a hard time stopping. Several times it did not stop at all!! I've taken the vehicle back to autonation to repair the brakes and each time they told me nothing was wrong. So I had the vehicle inspected by two other repair centers. The two centers told me that my back left brake is leaking fluid which is causing the problems. They also found incomplete service to the front brakes.
Brake pads wore unevenly, causing outside pad to wear faster than inside pad. Squeal sensor is on inside pad, therefore the sensor was not activated. Rotors were damaged due to failure of outside brake pad. Pads and rotors have been relpaced twice.
ABS brake problems; when applying the brakes on any type of road surface have to press the pedal extremely hard before the Blazer will stop. The front brakes have been replaced (3) times(11/96, 5/97 and 10/97). Brake problem still exists.
ABS brakes; when applying the brakes in normal conditions, the pedal goes to the floor and there is an extended stopping distance. Replaced right front rotor and brake pads.
