When traveling at a low rate of speed and attempting to brake the ABS brake system engages and does not allow me to stop when necessary. This happens every time I try to stop at a low rate of speed. This was corrected once by recall number 05V379000, however the problem has not been permanently fixed and we are in danger every time we drive the vehicle.

The brakes on my 2002 Silverado are terrible. At low speeds the brake pedal goes to the floor and the truck will not stop. My wife refuses to drive the truck. I use it to pull my 2 horse trailer and the trailer brakes stop the vehicle. The Chevy recall on these brakes should be extended to all states! I live in Florida and obviously my truck has been affected by the faulty ABS sensor issue.

Dave miller, 1-866-790-5600, advises that even though our VIN number falls under those captured for recall and is within the recall states and the problem is characteristic of hte recall they are denying reimbursement because I never received a recall notice. I advised them that I just bought the truck two weeks prior and would not have received a notice. I also requested that they send me a formal written denial of claim and they will not as they do not have authority to do so. I paid $1300 to have this safety defect repaired and they will not reimburse me for my expenses. All tsb's were followed and failed to correct the poblem. The only resolve was the replacement of both front wheel hubs. Removed, defective parts are available for inspection

In regards to NHTSA campaign id number: 05V379000, I live in the western mountains of Virginia and I am having the identical problems associated with the above mentioned recall.
