See attached document for complaint

The ABS caught on fire. Lost brakes and all brake fluid, no police reports because it was in my alley way as soon as I started moving, when it happened the ABS and brake lights both came on at the same time. No prior warning.

The contact owns a 2000 Chevrolet Tahoe. The contact stated that while driving at slow speeds, the ABS would erroneously activate. During the failure, the stopping distance was increased and the ABS warning light was activated. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed that the vehicle was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 05V379000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 150,000.

ABS/Traction Control wheel speed sensors corroded, causing the ABS to activate at low speeds and making it impossible to stop the car. This is the same issue as has been reported for other VIN numbers of the same vehicle; see Safety Recall 05068 Front Wheel Speed Sensor Corrosion, https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2005/RCRIT-05V379-8709.pdf. However, that recall was limited to vehicles registered in the "Rust Belt" states; it appears that as this vintage of vehicle has aged, vehicles outside the Rust Belt now are experiencing the same problem, suggesting that the recall should be broadened.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN HIS DAUGHTER DROVE DOWN HILL AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ENGAGED, THE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED TO ENGAGE CAUSING THE DRIVER TO HIT A PERSON THAT WAS DRIVING A BICYCLE. THE VEHICLE WENT UP A HILL AND THE DRIVER PROCEEDED ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE BUT IT WENT UP A HILL, ROLLED BACKWARDS INTO BUSHES, AND CRASHED INTO A TREE WHERE IT CAME TO A STOP. THE POLICE WAS PRESENT AND A REPORT WAS FILED; THE POLICE REPORT NUMBER WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE PERSON ON THE BICYCLE WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL AND SUFFERED UNKNOWN FRACTURES TO THE BODY. THE DRIVER DID NOT SUSTAIN ANY INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACTS FATHER RESIDENCE AND HE NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE LINES WERE CORRODED AND BRAKE FLUID WAS ON THE GROUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CALLED HOWEVER THERE WAS A LONG WAIT TIME AND A REPRESENTATIVE WAS NOT AVAILABLE TO ANSWER THE CALL PROMPTLY. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 166,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SON WAS DRIVING 40 MPH, HE CRASHED INTO A VEHICLE THAT RAN A RED LIGHT. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT'S SON SUSTAINED CHEST, LOWER BACK, AND NECK PAINS THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE CONTACT'S SON WENT TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM TWO SEPARATE TIMES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW YARD. THE CONTACT WAS WAITING FOR FINALIZED INFORMATION FROM THE INSURANCE COMPANY TO DETERMINE IF THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE DASH BOARD ON MY TAHOE 2000 WITH 1999 BODY STYLE IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. THE PROBLEM IS IT IS IN SHARDS AND CONTINUES TO FALL APART. IT IS EFFECTING MY DASHBOARD, THE FRONT PANEL WITH GAGES, MY AIR CONDITIONER, HEATER, RADIO. I HAVE CALLED THE COMPANY AND HAVE BEEN GIVEN A LIST OF COMPANIES TO CALL BUT NO HAS THE DASH. I NOLONGER ALLOW MY GRANDCHILDREN. ELDERLY PARENTS OR ANYONE TO RIDE WITH ME. IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT THE SHARDS WOULD PROBABLY DISFIGURE OR KILL SOMEONE. I NEED A DASHBOARD.

OPENED TAILGATE GLASS WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND IT SHIFTED TO LEFT AND THEN THE WHOLE TOP CAME LOOSE. AND THIS COULD INJURY SOMEONE. THE METAL HINGES THE ATTACH THE GLASS TO THE VEHICLE ARE ATTACHED WITH A PLASTIC OR GLUE OF SOME TYPE THAT DEGENERATES. IF THIS OCCURS WHILE DIVING THE GLASS COULD DETACH AND POSE A SAFETY ISSUE. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IN 2005 GM REDESIGNED THE GLASS WITH BOLTS ATTACHING IT. MANY OWNERS ON GM FORUM HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO SAFELY FIX IT. I CONTACTED GM SUPPORT AND THEY STATED THAT I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE TO A GM DEALER AND HAVE FIXED AT MY COST. I FEEL IT SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL DUE TO POOR DESIGN.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE , I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT , AND THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR . THE TAHOE FINALLY STOPPED AFTER A MUCH LONGER THAN NORMAL DISTANCE . AFTER INSPECTING THE MASTER CYLINDER , THERE WAS HARDLY ANY BRAKE FLUID REMAINING . I FOUND THAT THE BRAKE LINES WERE VERY RUSTED , AND THAT THE LINE GOING TO THE REAR BRAKES WAS RUSTED THROUGH . THIS RUSTING OF THE BRAKE LINES SHOULD NEVER OCCUR !

IN 2011 MY ABS/BRAKE LIGHT STARTING COMING ON TOOK TO DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD HOW MUCH IT WOULD COST TO REPAIR. IN SEARCHING ONLINE HOW TO FIX, I SEE A RECALL WAS GIVEN TO SALT BELT STATES IN 2005. I OWN TRUCK SINCE 2002. TOLD BY GMC TODAY THE RECALL ALTHOUGH IT STATES SALT BELT STATES RECALL ONLY AFFECTED CERTAIN VIN #'S IS THIS CORRECT? FIRST OWNER LIVED IN SALT BELT STATE AND TRUCK MANUFACTURED IN SALT BELT. I SEE THERE ARE ADDITIONAL GMC PRODUCTS WITH SAME PROBLEM. WHY DON'T THEY REPAIR?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, THE ABS SYSTEM DISENGAGED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LUNGE FORWARD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ABS SYSTEM WOULD RE-ENGAGE IF THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS RELEASED AND THEN DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THERE WOULD BE AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD VEER TO THE LEFT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HUB BEARING ASSEMBLY ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, HOWEVER THE FAILURE RECURRED ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS FOR A PERIOD OF TIME AND THEN TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE, A BURNING OIL ODOR WOULD COME FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HAVING THE VEHICLE SERVICED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, IT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS ENGINE OIL LEAKING FROM THE MAIN SEAL AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, HOWEVER THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ABS WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN ATTEMPTING TO PARK OR MAKING A TURN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 05V379000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) AND 00V345000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

WENT TO STOP AT STOP SIGN AT APPROXIMATELY 4MPH AND NO BRAKES. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT ANY RESISTANCE OR HESITATION. AS A RESULT OF THE BRAKE MALFUNCTION I REAR ENDED AN ELDERLY COUPLE IN A LEXUS. RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO THEIR REAR BUMPER PLASTIC COVER AND MORE DAMAGE WAS DONE TO MY FRONT END OF THE DEFECTIVE 200 CHEVROLET TAHOE Z71 I WAS DRIVING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET TAHOE. WHILE APPROACHING A STOP SIGN, THE BRAKES FAILED. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY EXCESSIVE FORCE IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED THE VEHICLE INTO A POLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 256,345.

HELLO I AM EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SYMPTOMS DESCRIBED IN GM RECALL 05068C "THESE VEHICLES MAY HAVE A CONDITION PERMITTING CORROSION TO OCCUR BETWEEN THE FRONT HUB/BEARING ASSEMBLY AND THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR. IF THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING AT A SPEED OF GREATER THAN 6 KM/H (3.7 MPH) BUT LESS THAN 16 KM/H (10 MPH), THE CORROSION MAY CAUSE AN UNWANTED ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) ACTIVATION. IF THIS CONDITION OCCURRED WHERE STOPPING DISTANCE IS LIMITED, A CRASH COULD OCCUR. " HOWEVER, MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE BREAKPOINTS, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE A 2000 CHEVROLET TAHOE. I CAN DEMONSTRATE THAT THIS IS THE PROBLEM IN TWO WAYS, FIRST BY REPRODUCING WITH A SCAN TOOL THAT SHOWS UNEXPECTED ABS ACTIVATION DURING STOPPING AT THIS LOW SPEED, AND SECOND AFTER PULLING THE ABS FUSE THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT HAPPEN. THIS CLEARLY POINTS TO THE ABS ISSUE MENTIONED IN THE RECALL. I HAVE CONTACTED TWO LOCAL DEALERSHIPS, AND AFTER I ASKED ABOUT RECALLS THEY SAID MY VIN WAS INVALID. THEN I CONTACTED THE CHEVY CONTACT CENTER AND THEY SAID THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. SO NOW WHAT - SHOULD I JUST REPLACE THE ABS SENSORS AND MOVE ON, OR IS THERE ANY CHANCE OF GETTING THIS ACKNOWLEDGED BY GM AS PART OF THE RECALL?

THIS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE LAST WEEK. WHILE ACCELERATING THE GAS PEDAL HAS GOTTEN STUCK AND THE VEHICLE INCREASES WITH SPEED. IN A PANIC I SHIFTED THE TRANSMISSION INTO NEUTRAL; THE ENGINE KEPT REVVING. AS I CONTINUED TO ATTEMPT TO UN-STICK THE GAS PEDAL I NOTICED IT WAS ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR. AFTER ABOUT 20 SECONDS IT FINALLY UN-STUCK WHEN I STOMPED ON IT SEVERAL TIMES. THIS HAPPENED FIRST ON A PUBLIC STREET AND LAST WHILE ENTERING THE HIGHWAY. *TR

TRIED TO STOP AND BRAKES FAILED DUE TO RUSTED THRU REAR LEFT STEEL BRAKE LINE. NOW HAVE 2 OTHERS RUSTED THRU. CAR IS AT MECHANIC SHOP NOW MECHANIC IS REPLACING ALL BRAKE LINES BECAUSE HE WOULD NOT TOUCH IT OTHER WISE .HESAID I CAN EXPECT AT LEAST A $1200.00 DOLLAR BILL OR MORE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, THE ABS ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD UNWANTED ABS ACTIVATION.
