• 00V055000Feb 28, 200010,674 vehicles potentially affected
  Service brakes, hydraulic › Antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip
  Covers: Chevrolet S10 2000, GMC Sierra 2000, Chevrolet Silverado 2000 +1 more

  Reported issue: Vehicle description: light duty pickup trucks equipped with 4-wheel disc brakes. Some of these vehicles have an antilock brake system (abs) motor containing an out-of-specification spring clip. This clip could allow the motor bearing to become misaligned. If misalignment occurs, eventually the abs would be non-functional.

  Possible consequence: The base brakes would remain fully functional, but the dynamic rear proportioning (drp) system, which optimizes front to rear brake balance, would become inoperative.

  Remedy: Dealers will replace the brake pressure module valve assembly.

  Covers: Chevrolet S10 2000, GMC Jimmy 2000, Chevrolet Blazer 2000 +1 more

  Possible consequence: If this occurred, the seating seal could be broken during vehicle assembly, or from early road inputs or brake fluid cycling, and a leak could occur increasing the brake stopping distance.

  Remedy: Dealers will inspect the brake pipe union for signs of brake fluid, and if necessary, install a new brake pipe union.
