Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH I HAD TO STOP FOR A CAR, THE BRAKES FAILED,( BRAKE CLEAR TO THE FLOOR) I HAD TO DRIVE INTO THE BAR PIT TO AVOID A COLLISION. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE TO A GM AUTHORIIZED SERVICE DEPARTMENT 3 TIMES TO HAVE THEM FIXED BECAUSE OF HOW SLOW IT STOPS. BRAKE PADS WERE REPLACED, CALIPERS REPLACED, EVERYTHING WAS DONE TO THE BRAKES THAT THEY COULD. THE BRAKES FAILED AFTER THE BRAKES ON THE WHEEL WERE IN WORKING ORDER. I THINK THE ABS SYSTEM IS GOING OUT.!*AK
