I have a 1999 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 truck. If I hit a bump in the road the ABS goes crazy and the truck will not stop. I replaced brake pads, rotors and calipers several times and my odometer reading is now at 69, 520 miles. The truck simply will not stop and I have rolled on through intersections and other places I could not stop. When GM issued a recall on the speed sensor I contacted them to reimburse me the $900 that I have spent trying to make my truck safe. They informed me brakes were not covered under warranty even though I have had 99% of the brake work performed at the GM dealership, hewitt motors. They said "sorry, we cannot help you." I think it is really excessive that I should have to pay that much money in such little mileage for the brakes. And I see from your other complaints it is definitely a major problem that GM needs to address. We really like the truck but the brakes are just not safe!!

Anti-lock brakes engaging and low speed and not shutting off. They keep pulsating even after taking foot off brake pedal. The only way to stop it was to remove the 60 amp fuse. This is on my 1999 Chevy Silverado. I have taken it to a Chevy dealership and they told me it would cost over $800 just for parts alone. I feel G.M. should fix this safety feature defect.

The second time the dealership put brake pads on the rear, cleaned the sensors, and resurfaced the front and rear rotors. However, the problem recurred. The right rear window regulator was replaced.

Driving on the road and the ABS control module came on and would not stop, even if truck is off and the key removed from it. The only way to stop the module from working is to remove the electrical wiring from it.

I purchased a used 1999 Chevrolet Silverado 4WD in July and around Sept of this year I had trouble breaking in low mph situations such as stop signs, lights and in parking situations where the ABS would trigger on dry clean pavement causing many close calls where I almost rear ended vehicles or ran into buildings ect. There is a recall on this particular problem in "salt using states" which ironically does not include Wisconsin or Minnesota. The recall# is 05068 regarding wheel speed sensors in years 99 thru 02 models.

While braking at low speeds, maining decreasing from about 7mph to 5 mph the anti-lock brakes activate. When it activates, you have no brakes and it has almost caused several accidents. This has been happening for about a year now. Several people in my area are having the same problems with different years models also. This occurs every time you apply the brakes while coming to a stop.

1999 Silverado brake system failed, when pressing the brakes they went to the floor. The consumer experienced brake failure on 5 separate occasion. On 2 of the 5 occasions the consumer rear ended a vehicle and the last time the consumer was unable to stop the vehicle and subsequently crashed through a garage door. The consumer stated she was never notified of the recall investigation of the ABS. The dealer did admit on the invoice there was a problem, however they refused to fix it. The cd player was not reading the cd's it would issue an error message.

I took my 1999 Chevrolet 1500 series pickup to a local dealer to get the recall on the front speed sensors fixed. The anti-lock brakes were activating every time I tried to stop the vehicle. They said they serviced the truck but when I picked it up the problem persisted. I took it back a second time and they told me that the right front hub assembly was bad. I took the truck to the mecanic I normally use and he put the hub in, the problem still persisted. I called General Motors to report that the dealership didn't fix the problem, then told me to replace a part that wasn't defective. They did nothing, now I have a truck that I make a monthly payment on and is unsafe to drive as it will not stop.
