“In aug 2005, the ABS light on our 2001 Gmc Yukon with 51k miles came on and there was a grinding noise (the pump) underneath the driver's side which remains on when the vehicle is turned off. The ABS fuse must be removed to shut off the pump. Our local Gmc dealership repaired it for $1100 ($870 for the ABS module). In sep 2009, the ABS failed again at 91k miles. Our Gmc dealership helped cover the cost of repair by covering the cost of the module. …”

“Abs light came on when backing out of driveway. Drove 3 miles to a meeting. When ignition turned off the light went out but I could hear a hum. Unable to locate source of hum. Spent 5 hours in meeting and hum was still present. Car started ok but ABS light came back on. Late in day so I took to local firestone service. They determined it was the ABS pump. It was so hot it blistered my finger when I touched it. Tapped on pump housing to get it to go off but no success. Only way to stop pump was to remove fuse from fuseblock under hood. I am glad I discovered this. …”

“No matter how many times I get my brakes fixed there is always the break and the air brake lights that appear. I have changed to sensors, fuses and still it remains. Every mechanic tells me that no matter what the brake and air brake lights will appear. That needs to be a recall. Seeing any type of warning lights drives me crazy if there is nothing wrong with my brakes then there should be no warnings.”
