“My 2002 Tahoe's ABS comes on at speeds under 10 MPH in dry conditions. I see that there is a recall for my year vehicle, so I contacted GM and was told my vehicle was not one of the recalled vehicles, but yet I am having the same problem as listed in the recall. This makes no sense to me at all. What can I do? Please help.”
