1996 GMC SUBURBAN — SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP

A TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED WHEN THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNED YELLOW. I TRIED TO STOP AND HAD PLENTY OF TIME TO STOP. THE BRAKES LOCKED UP (THERE WAS A SLIGHT NOISE OF THE BRAKES LOCKING UP) AND I WAS SURPRISED I WAS NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO STOP. I RELEASED THE BRAKES TO TRY BRAKING AGAIN. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THEY LOCKED UP AGAIN. TO AVOID REAR ENDING THE TRUCK, I HAD TO SWERVE BETWEEN IT AND THE CAR IN THE LEFT TURN LANE. MY PASSENGER SIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR MADE CONTACT WITH THE BACKSIDE OF THE TRUCK. MY BRAKES FINALLY CAUGHT WHEN MY SUBURBAN WAS AHEAD OF HIS TRUCK. THE PAVEMENT WAS WET BUT IT WAS NOT RAINING. *AK
