1994 Chevrolet Tahoe SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

IN DECEMBER 2001 THE BRAKE SYSTEM TOTALLY FAILED FOR AN INSTANT IN HEAVY TRAFFIC VERY NEARLY CAUSING A REAR END COLLISION. AGAIN ON FEB 6, 2002 THE SAME THING OCCURRED, AGAIN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I WILL PRESENT THE VEHICLE TO A CHEVROLET DEALER IN HOPES OF HAVING IT FIXED. *AK

DURING WET CONDITIONS, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO STOP ABS BRAKES LOCK UP, AND VEHICLE WILL SLIDE TO A STOP. DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED A SENSOR IN ABS; HOWEVER, THIS HAS NOT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. *AK *JB

WHEN APPLYING THE ABS BRAKES ON WET OR DRY PAVEMENT THE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR, CAUSING EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE. DEALER CAN NOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS. *AK

PARTICULARLY IN WET WEATHER WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE OCCURS. BRAKES REPLACED AND ABS SYSTEM IS STILL DEFECTIVE. DEALER CONTACTED AND CANNOT REMEDY PROBLEM. NO RECALL ESTABLISHED. PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK MJS

WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, DURING A DECLINE, VEHICLE WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN ENOUGH BY THE PRESSURE APPLIED TO THE PEDAL. DEALER SAYS IT'S NO PROBLEM. *AK

BRAKES EXPERIENCED EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCES RESULTING IN LOSS OF CONTROL AND REAR ENDING OF OTHER VEHICLE.

APPLIED BRAKES, PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR, CAUSING EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE. VEHICLE WENT INTO AN INTERSECTION, HIT BY ANOTHER MOVING VEHICLE IN DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. VEHICLE ROLLED OVER ONTO PASSENGER'S SIDE. DRY WEATHER; 35 MPH PRIOR TO STOPPING. VEHICLE TOTALED. *AK

DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, APPLIES BRAKES , DOES NOT SEEM THEY WILL GRAB. STOPPED ON TIME, BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN ABOUT 30 FEET SOONER THAN DRIVING A REGULAR VEHICLE. *AK
