Consumer Complaint:
SINCE ABS CAMPAIGN #C99046 VEHICLE RECALL SERVICE JULY 7, 2000 TO REPLACE ABS PART # 8880026 MODULE KIT 4.720 I HAVE HAD THREE LOSS OF BRAKES IN EMERGENCY STOP/ACCIDENT AVOIDANCE SITUATION RESULTING IN DAMAGES TO FRONTAL AREA OF MY VEHICLE ALL 3 TIME. AND THE LAST TWO TIMES REAR ENDING OTHER PERSON'S VEHICLES. EVER SINCE THIS RECALLED MODULE WAS CHANGED IN LOW SPEED SUDD STOP OR ACCIDENT AVOIDANCE MANEUVERS WHILE HITTING THE BRAKE PEDAL THE ABS UNIT COMES ON WITH A PEDAL PUMPING PULSATION BUT NEVER SLOWS OR STOPS THE TRUCK. I HAVE ALSO HAD BOTH FRONT SEAT TRACKS BROKEN BY THE IMPACT TO IMPAIRING REAR SEAT PASSENGER ENTRY AND EXIT. I HAVE HAD THE BRAKES REDONE CONTINOUSLY AND FILED CLAIM WITH G.M. LAST TIME REQUESTING ENGINEERING INVESTIGATION TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS MODEL ABS REAR BRAKES ARE NOT AUTO ADJUSTING AFTER TWO PRIOR ACCIDENTS TRYING TO GET TH BRAKES WORKING CORRECTLY. I HAD HAD NO FOLLOWUP BY NHTSA REGARDING MY LAST COMPLAINT BY MADE BY A TTY/RELAY CALL AS I AM DEAF. MY INSURANC HAS GONE OUT OF SIGHT BECAUSE OF ACCIDENT CLAIM FILINGS TO FIX THIS TRUCK AND NEVER ONCE DID THE INSURANCE COMPANIES INCLUDE TH BRAKE REPAIRS IN THEIR REPORTS. THE TRUCK BRAKES FINE UNDER ALL NOPRMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS INCLUDING HIGH SPEED THRUWAY ACCIDENT AVOIDANCE STOPS. ITS JUST THE LOW SPEED ON DRY ROADS WITH VERY WARM NEAR 90 DEGREE TEMPERATURE DAYS ON ASPHALT THIS HAPPENS AND THERE IS NEVER A BRAKING SKID MARK OR WHEEL LOCK UP AT ANY ACCIDENT SITE. I WAS ADVISED THAT THE RECALL MODULE REPLACEMENT WAS TO RESOLVE A "NORTHERN" WINTERTIME ICY CONDITION STOPPING PROBLEM. THE TRUCK HAS NEVER BEEN DRIVEN IN NORTHERN ICY CLIMATES AND THE TRUCK HAS ALWAYS HAD EXPENSIVE OVERSIZED SPECIAL HIGH PERFORMANCE TIRES/WHEELS/SUSPENSION COMPONENTS TO ENHANCE BRAKING AND HANDLING. WITH THIS RECALL MODULE CHANGE THE BRAKE FLUID ALSO GETS BLACK AND CONTAMINATED FASTER. I WANT TO UNLOAD THIS VEHICLE BUT AM AFRAID A PERSON UNFAMILIAR COULD GET HURT OR HURT SOMEONE. HELP!*AK
