2000 GMC Yukon Denali Brakes Problems

“Low speed activation of ABS brakes, on dry pavement, extending the stopping distance to an unanticipated length. Although a collision did not occur, the problem is on going. This sounds like the same circumstances which are included in the manufacturer's recall 05v379000.

Sounds like a major problem. I am worried about total failure and am registering a complaint. They said that I could get it fixed now and then they may reimburse me later. …”

“My 2000 Gmc Yukon Denali is experiencing problems as described in recall 05068 from Gmc.

“The contact owns a 2000 Gmc Yukon Denali. While driving 25 MPH or a lower speed, the brake pedal extends to the floor when it is depressed. The contact took the vehicle to a bridgestone shop to be repaired at the cost of $1,000. A week later, the vehicle began to slide and the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the repair shop and they stated that there was a defect in the hydraulic antilock system. The contact was advised to take the vehicle to the dealer for repair. …”
