“My anti-lock brakes would kick in when I would slow down almost to a stop. They would not let me stop. No warning lights were on and my brake system has been working great. Is there a recall on this problem, seems to happen to a lot of chevy owners?”
NHTSA complaint #10747310, filed 2015-08, 173,526 miles“Abs failing at low speeds. Have cleaned both sensors, checked voltage and the problem still occurs. I hit my gate at the house where I park the truck because the truck would not stop and ran forward.”
NHTSA complaint #10318930, filed 2010-03, 165,000 miles“This is in regards to NHTSA action number: ea02015. This has been an ongoing problem with the accel pedal getting stuck. Dealer said it is normal which it is not. Happens randomly when maneuvering at lower speeds parking lots/streets etc. You have to give the pedal a firm push to get it unstuck and the truck lunges fwd. Someone is going to get hurt by this. I have seen many many complaints of this on the boards/chat rooms. I was with my young daughter driving and this occurred and she pulled out and pedal/throttle got stuck. She gave gas and lost control of vehicle narrowly missing semi. …”

Many similar reports from consumers on same complaint. Newyork based vehicle, truck always washed undercarriage to remove salt from roadway in winter months. All lines need replacement...dangerous condition!!!!! Please have your vehicle inspected for your safety. No damage , crashed into curb in parking lot. I strongly believe these vehicles should all be removed from roads and fixed at GM expense. …”
