Incident: February 12, 2005 · Filed: May 7, 2005

I HAVE OWNED A 2000 CHEVY TAHOE FOR 3+ YEAR AND HAVE HAD ANTI LOCK BRAKE PROBLEMS. THE BRAKE DO NOT ENGAGE SOMETIMES AND ALMOST CAUSE ME TO CRASH AND CREATING A DAMGEROUS SITUATION. I AM A CAREFUL DRIVER SO I ALWAY KEEP THE PROBLEM IN MIND AND TRY TO ALWAYS GIVE MY SELF ENOUGH TIME TO STOP, BUT SOMETIME IN EMERGENCY WHEN I REALLY NEED THE BRAKES THEY DON'T ENGAGE AND HAVE ALMOST HAD ACCIDENTS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ON GOING PROBLEM EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THE BRAKE DON'T ENGAGE AND THE VEHICLE KEEPS GOING EVEN WITH FULL PRESSURE. MOST OBVIOUS WHEN ROAD IS WET. VERY SCARY
