The ABS braking system goes stiff at low speeds. I have to jam on the brakes extremely hard in order for them to stop, the brakes eventually will stop after a 3 to five more feet.the ABS braking system is extremely dangerous and serves no purpose.the vehicle works better after disabling the ABS brake system.please recall all Chevy Silverado and Tahoe due to ABS braking system issues.

Tailgate cables broke while standing on tailgate loading materials-no injury (July 2003). Left front day time running light blew and burnt the socket. Have seen numerous other same models with same problem (2001). Back passenger doors on the extended cab do not fully lock during 30 degree weather and below until the interior heats up.
