Description of the problem | Vehicle brake pedal goes to the floor at low speeds 5-10mph during stop. The abs light does not illuminate. Very close to serious accident (s). This is not a traction or lack of traction issue. This seems to be wheel speed sensors that continually require replacing. Rear calipers on this vehicle with less than 65k miles have been replaced twice. Brakes have been a problem since new. Brake lines rotted with less than 60k miles on vehicle and gm refused to consider this a defect which it was and is. |
