Consumer Description

TOOK MY 1997 S10 PICKUP TO A MECHANIC AND REQUESTED HE CHECK THE BRAKES. THE BRAKE PEDAL FAULTS WHEN CONTINUEING TO APPLY PRESSURE AND BEGINS TO MAKE A BOUNCING TYPE OF FEELING AND THE DISTANCE TO STOP (ESPECIALLY ON WET ROADS) CANNOT BE DETERMINED. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE ABS WERE FAULTY AND TO CONTACT A DEALER AND HAVE THE VIN RESEARCHED FOR RECALLS, ETC. ALSO REFERRED ME TO NHTSA.
