NHTSA complaint: 1995 CHEVROLET TAHOE — SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
THE DESCRIPTION OF THE ABS BRAKE FAILURE IN THE WASHINGTON POST ARTICLE ON JULY 22, 1999 IS AN EXACT DESCRIPTION OF THE CAUSE OF AN ACCIDENT I HAD IN FEBRUARY, 1999. I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 10 MPH AND APPLIED THE BRAKES. I WAS UNABLE TO STOP BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW HARD I PUSHED THE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ROLL AND BUMPED INTO THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME, DAMAGING MY BUMPER. I HAD THE DEALER REPLACE THE BUMPER AND CHECK THE BRAKES. THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE ABS BRAKE SYSTEM.
