Chevrolet has recalled 1999 Tahoe for ABS sensor failure due to corrosion. I didn't receive a recall notice, so I called chev. At 1-800-630-2438. Their representative told me that my vehicle's identification number did not fall within the "breakpoint", so my vehicle isn't covered in the recall, despite the fact that I had to have the ABS sensors replaced in Nov, 2004 at a cost of $741. The rep. Couldn't explain why my vehicle didn't fall within the so-called "breakpoint". my vehicle's ident. # is [xxx]. the vehicle has always been used in Maine, which is one of the "salt belt" states.

The recall that Chevy has for the antilock brakes only goes back to 2000. Mine had the same issue and I had to replace the entire hub assembly on each side because it got so bad that they were activating all the time. I do not have the parts, but I got it repaired at a service garage and have the receipt.
I was in an accident today. The reason for the accident is that my anti-lock brakes engaged at less than 15 mph therefore not allowing me to stop in time. The brake actually felt as if they were not working at all. I was informed that newer models were included in a recall in the salt belt, but not in mn. What can we do to fix the problem? it happened in mn and in a 1999 Tahoe. Thanks, joan godfrey.

I have a 1999 Chevy Tahoe. There have been a few instances when I have applied the brakes at low speeds; the brakes lock causing the truck to skip and skid. This is terrifying, as I do not know when the truck will stop. Sometimes the skip and skid will go for 10-15 feet before finally stopping. Twice I have almost hit another vehicle. A third time I had to drive off the road to avoid a collision because the truck would not stop. There is a current recall issued by NHTSA #05V379000 but does not extend to California.
