IN APRIL, 2005 I STARTED TO HAVE THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE TIRE TRY TO KICK INTO ABS WHEN I WAS COMING TO A STOP IN MY 99 CHEVY TAHOE. IT WOULD ONLY HAPPEN IN THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE AND WHEN THE TRUCK WAS AT A VERY SLOW SPEED, ALMOST STOPPED. THIS WENT ON FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS, WHEN I TOOK IT IN TO HAVE IT FIXED. THE PART THAT WAS REPLACED WAS NOTED ON THE RECEIPT AS A LEFT FRONT WHEEL BEARING. ONCE THAT WAS FIXED, THAT BRAKING PROBLEM STOPPED. *JB

Reading this record
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.
