On several ocations the anti-lock system has activated for no reason. This has happened on dry roads and no panic bracking was envolved. When the system activates, breaking distances become much greater than normal, thus necessating corrective action to avoid a collission.

- Duryea, PA, USA

Vehicle experiencing problem with delay in stopping distance when applying brake on wet snow road conditions. Dealer / manufacturer were not notified at this time. The consumer indicated that the sudden loss of braking when the ABS engages was frightening and dangerous.

Likely failure of braking system. Hydraulic (brake) fluid reservoir is free to flop around on mounting. Braking system must ultimately fail do to ultimate failure of the seal(s) around the base of this plastic reservoir. Evidence of failure would be in the form of corrossion (rust), water, and air in the system or loss of break fluid, depending on wheather or not the failure is do to internal and/or external failure of the seals. If the vehicle is used on rough roads or in climates w/extreme temperature variations are present, the failure will be much quicker. Failure will be in the form of total loss of brakes, brake fade, and poor stopping power. It will totaly confuse any ABS system in use do to inconsistent/erratic brake performance. All of these conditions have already been reported by various individuals on prior years trucks. Why hasn't this reservoir been investigated as to the effects of its leaking in the form of being albe to suck air/moisture into the brake system or loosing fluid to the atmosphere?? regardless, failure is inevitable, as dynamic seals must utimately fail, and something should be done to eliminate this weak point in this system. If I am wrong, and it has been investigated and determined to be safe, please let me hear from you as I am very concerned about my family's safety where this matter is concerned!

Truck lurches violently when brakes are applied but only when towing a horse trailer. Condition is so severe that the truck is not safe to drive when towing. The trailer has been weighed (8300# empty) and carefully inspected, no problems. The truck is rated to pull 10,800#. dealer tells me that I am pulling too much weight. The disc brakes, all four, were found to be severely overheated and were replaced, but the problem persists. The truck will lurch even when the trailer brakes are disconnected and the trailer brakes can stop both the truck and trailer smoothly by using the hand control. Three dealers, two service reps and a GM engineer are stumped, but GM refuses to give me a buy back.
