1994 Chevrolet Blazer Brakes Problems

“I was driving home early this morning, after doing a little hill climbing the night before with a friend. On the way home I was driving under the speed limit, when the vehicle about 3 seconds in front of me stopped, I immediately hit the brakes, the brakes did not work properly, causing me to hit the rear end of the car in front of me, causing damage to both vehicles, I received a traffic violation, and a neck sprain.”

“I bought my 94 chevy Blazer in jan 2000. In 2005, my abd light went on. The dealer said my ABS brake modulator valve failed and that I need to replace my entire ABS unit. It costs $100 used and over $3k new. I found an article stating the recall of this pat in 1999 that I was unaware of. Is it possible to have these repairs covered under the recall since it is a safety feature of the vehicle?”

“Consumer experience the same defect with their ABS brakes, which resulted in an accident, as stated in recall number 99 v 193 000, but vehicle is not included in recall by it's VIN number. Ts brakes failed to stop while driving downhill.”

“Dt: the vehicle is a 1994 Chevrolet Blazer. The manufacturer's recalls 99041 and 99046 concerning brake failure were issued. When the consumer contacted the manufacturer they told him that this vehicle's VIN was covered under the recalls. However, when they put in the VIN no recalls were shown, but they agreed that they fell within the recall specification. They were not doing the recall work. Someone told him that it might be because vehicle was too old to be fixed. Also NHTSA recall 97v096000 for the seat belts was issued. …”
