The speed sensor malfunctions 1-4 times per year (usually from Dec through Mar). The first time I had it repaired at the dealership, but on subsequent failures did the repair myself. I have also replaced the tailgate cables more than once, and currently have a broken one again.

Pulling into a gas station with my son from a road with a 45 mph speed limit. Slowed down to attempt to park on side of building and about the last 50-75 feet the ABS brake system pulsates and brake pedal is slammed down as hard as could and there is absolutely no brakes. Truck hits corner of gate damaging bumper, grille, hood and small dent in door from gate. Taken to dealership to have recall campaign 05068 looked at and damage accessed. Dealership says damage not due to recall campaign. They also state that there are other components that caused crash and I am charged $220 to fix these. Called Chevrolet hot line and of course they do nothing but deny responsibility for products they have problems with. They insult my good faith in them by asking me how tall I am (they probably think that I am a short person and inadvertantly stepped on gas pedal instead of brake).

I contacted GM at Chevrolet.com and spoke with a Mr. Brandon christen file # 1-387148116 and was informed of the above then I received an E-mail from a Mr. Michael goonan and he also told me that it was not covered!!!!!! I feel that this a GM problem and being that it is doing the same thing as the stated 99 through 05 pickups that this should be repaired by GM!!

When brakes were applied on consumer's 1999 Chevrolet Silverado the brake pedal seemed to travel farther than usual then the vehicle would not stop. The antilock brake light illuminated and remained on occasion. ***** the consumer is aware of several recalls and service bulletins related to ABS brakes.

- Arlington, TX, USA

: the contact stated the ABS pulsates while the vehicle is at a static position. The vehicle has not been inspected by a mechanic for this issue. There is a NHTSA recall, # 05V379000, regarding the antilock brakes; however, it is not included in the recall due to the VIN.

- National City, MI, USA

ABS pump malfunctioned, causing it to activate and remain running, even with the key removed from the ignition. Brakes work okay, just without the assistance of ABS. Dealer estimated fix at approximately $1,000. ABS and brake warning lamps are illuminated and have remained on for almost 2 years since the pump initially malfunctioned.

- Loogootee, IN, USA

: the contact stated while driving at any speed the antilock brakes fail. There was a NHTSA recall # 05V379000 concerning the antilock brakes however this did not correct the problem. The dealer determined the brake pump ran continually causing the brakes to fail. This was not part of the recall.

- Alden, MI, USA

: the contact stated while driving 25 mph a noise was heard coming from under the vehicle. The dealership determined the antilock brake system had failed and needed to be disconnected. A local independent repair shop disconnected the antilock brake system. Updated 5/10/2006 -

Front hub/bearing assembly and wheel speed sensor not working when vehicle is traveling between 3 and 10 mph and brakes are applied. The ABS is activating causing one wheel to continue and speed higher than other preventing safe turning and stopping of vehicle. The truck had this problem upon purchase, and dealer attempted to fix. Approximately 3 months later vehicle began doing same thing. This was a recall, and was taken to dealer to be repaired. Dealer only cleaned the area. Chevrolet was called by me and dealer and refused to replace hub, so vehicle is still doing same thing. Representative from Chevrolet on phone was rude, and replied that all that was covered under recall was cleaning hub. However the recall notice clearly states "in some cases, the front wheel speed sensor may need to be replaced." It also states "this service will be performed at no charge to you." I received recall notice in mail, and took immediately to dealer only to have problem keep occurring and Chevrolet refuse to fix it. This problem poses a danger and could cause a crash because of failure to stop.

- Eminence, KY, USA

- Lee's Summit, MO, USA

ABS system failure. Vehicle has 38000 miles. Had to disconnect fuse. Web search indicates this is a common problem with this vehicle/model. GM has not done a recall on this safety issue. I originally reported braking failures to dealer years ago that vehicle would lose brakes if you hit rough road or pot holes while attempting to stop. Got typical run-around.

- Oceanside, CA, USA

Letter stating has not been reimbursed for recall repairs on 1999 Silverado's antilock system. ***** the antilock brakes would activate while braking the repairs were made prior to the consumer receiving the recall notice. The consumer submitted a claim for reimbursement. The manufacturer denied the claim for reimbursement because consumer did not produce a work order from a certified mechanic.
