Consumer Description

THIS IS TOTALLY DANGEROUS . WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN FIXED . I SEEN SO MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM . THIS ABS CRAP IS WORTHLESS ! WHEN COMING TO A STOP THE BREAKS TOTALLY LOCK UP AND YOU CAN NOT STOP . I ALMOST RAN THROUGH A STORE FRONT WINDOW . THE DEALERSHIP AND GM ITSELF IS TOTALLY UN HELPFUL . ALL THEY WANT IS YOUR MONEY TO FIX THEM AND THEN TO HAVE THE PROBLEM COME BACK A FEW YEARS LATER . THIS IS SO EXPENSIVE NO ONE CAN AFFORD TO FIX THIS PROBLEM . I WONDER IF THEY CARE WHEN SOMEONE GETS KILLED BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM THEY JUST PUSH OFF . MY 2001 SILVERADO IS NOW DOING IT AGAIN . I WON'T BUY THEIR JUNK ANYMORE . WHAT A CRIME THEY HAVE ON THEIR HANDS AND NO ONE IS DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS . WHERE IS THE GOVERNMENT ON THIS ? THIS IS SO WRONG ! *TR
