I HAVE OWNED A 2000 CHEVY TAHOE FOR 3+ YEAR AND HAVE HAD ANTI LOCK BRAKE PROBLEMS. THE BRAKE DO NOT ENGAGE SOMETIMES AND ALMOST CAUSE ME TO CRASH AND CREATING A DAMGEROUS SITUATION. I AM A CAREFUL DRIVER SO I ALWAY KEEP THE PROBLEM IN MIND AND TRY TO ALWAYS GIVE MY SELF ENOUGH TIME TO STOP, BUT SOMETIME IN EMERGENCY WHEN I REALLY NEED THE BRAKES THEY DON'T ENGAGE AND HAVE ALMOST HAD ACCIDENTS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ON GOING PROBLEM EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THE BRAKE DON'T ENGAGE AND THE VEHICLE KEEPS GOING EVEN WITH FULL PRESSURE. MOST OBVIOUS WHEN ROAD IS WET. VERY SCARY
2 of 2 complaints, reproduced as filed.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
