Failure of antilock brakes sensor at low speeds. Resulting in multiple near misses with structures and vehicles. Happened about a dozen times in the last week. I brought my car to my texaco which diagnosed this and stated that there was a texaco bulletin on the issue. I googled and found that the problem is known by GM and caused a recall in Canada. Reference detroit news article "Agency checks brake sensors on 1.3 million GM trucks, road salt buildup in colder states may have led to an antilock system malfunction." (www.detnews.com/2005/autosinsider/0505/03/C01-169774.htm). I phoned my local GM which offered to "take a look" but that "they were not aware of any situation with these vehicles." Texaco replaced the front sensors at a cost of $520.40.
