Description of the problem | Abs sensor activation at slow speed. The truck does not stop normally when brakes applied at slow speed. This is a known defect by gm and nhtsa. Recalls have been done but not in my state. This is a safety issue and the recall needs to be expanded to all affected vehicles. Despite gm saying that this issue is limited to 20 states and canada, this is not true. A search of the internet has shown this defect is nationwide. Abs was added to vehicles to help prevent crashes. This defect causes them. |
