problem #1

Yukon

  • miles
No braking action is experienced for over 1 second after emergency hard braking. Try brakes hard, with full body weight, when moving 3 mph in simulated emergency and then letting of--the vehicle will not show down. I had a accident last year in which a additional 3-5' of stopping distance would have prevented the accident. I avoided an accident last week by swerving after an elderly lady rolled in front of me while I was traveling 25mph. I avoided it by swering, the brakes did not start slowing the vehicle until it was to late. I have demonstrated this same problem in a friends Yukon also. The dealer told me that this was the way the vehicle was designed and that there was nothing that could be done to correct the problem.
