NHTSA Complaint #10246869 — 2000 CHEVROLET S10

MY 2000 CHEVROLET STARTED TO ACTIVATE THE ABS WHEN STOPPING, BUT ONLY WITHIN THE LAST 5 MPH BEFORE STOPPING, I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THERE IS CURRENTLY A TSB, 020525006, OPEN FOR THE ISSUE. IS FOLLOWED THE TSB AS I AM MECHANICALLY INCLINED, TEST DROVE THE TRUCK AND NEARLY RAN INTO THE WALL ON THE BACK SIDE OF MY GARAGE. I PULLED THE FUSE TO THE ABS MODULE AND THE TRUCK STOPS WITHOUT ANY ISSUE. I ALSO FOUND A RECALL FOR ALL OF THE CHEVROLET FULL SIZE TRUCKS, MODEL YEAR 1999-2002. THE DESCRIPTION OF THE ISSUE IS THE EXACT SAME AS THE ISSUE I AM DEALING WITH. I ALSO FOUND OUT THAT THE BRAKE CONFIGURATION IS THE SAME AS THE FULL SIZE TRUCKS. THERE ARE S10'S WITH A DIFFERENT CONFIGURATION, BUT MINE IS THE SAME AS THE FULL SIZE TRUCKS. I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING WITH THE ABS DISCONNECTED. TO GET THE VEHICLE INSPECTED, I AM GOING TO PUT IT BACK IN SO THAT I CAN GET THE TRUCK INSPECTED AS I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO GET IT FIXED. THE FIX FOR THIS I BELIEVE IS TO HAVE THE HUB REPLACED AS THAT IS WHERE THE CORROSION EXISTS. *TR
