Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 GMC SAFARI VAN.APPROX 49000 MILES.I FIRST EXPIERENCED MY ANTILOC BRAKE SYSTEM ACTIVATING WHEN NOT NEEDED AT SLOW SPEEDS.THINKING THIS WAS A LITTLE ODD AND I THOUGHT I WOULD NEED TO GET IT TO ACT UP MORE IN ORDER TO PROPERLY EXPLAIN WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY SERVICE PERSONEL.AND I THOUGHT IT WAS MINOR AS EVEN THO THE ANTILOC SYSTEM ACTIVATED THE BRAKES SEEMED TO WORK FINE.UNTILL ONE DAY WHEN ALL I HEARD WAS THE NOISE ACCUSTOMED WITH THE ANTILOCK SYSTEM BUT THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR.AFTER PUSHING AS HARD AS I HAVE EVER PUSHED ON A BRAKE PEDAL THE VAN STOPPED. BEING AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ANYMORE I GOT IT INTO MY SERVICE DEPT.WHO REPLACED BOTH FRONT WHEEL SPEED SENSORS.
