This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The problem with the ABS-- it take longer to stop than it would without ABS, it also seems to actually slide on slippery surfaces such as ice & snow.... even though pedal is held firmly down, the wheels grip, then release, as if the ABS is not cyclling quick enough. I drive another GM vehicle with ABS & that system works differently & works ok. I am not talking about the pumping & pressure I feel from the pedal. The wheels will slide before the ABS kicks in, or so it seems. As regards to the rear drum brakes--- when it is cold & damp, the rear wheels will lock up with just the slightest pressure on the pedal... once it has been driven for approx 5 miles & the brakes used & warmed up, then the problem goes away...... this is a very annoying & dangerous trait of this vehicle... this has almost caused an accident on several occasions.. thank you
