Description of the problem | I own a 2004 chevrolet avalanche. The abs activates almost at every stop, even on dry pavement. In researching this problem i have found that there are many complaints on-line for the same problem. I also found that there is a recall for this problem for earlier model years but not for 2004. It seems apparent that the 2004 model year should be included. I have already paid a great deal of money to have the brakes, wheel bearings and speed sensors replaced. And the problem persists. I have to exercise extreme caution every time i stop for fear of rear ending the vehicle in front of me. Any help you can provide will certainly be appreciated by myself and all those affected. |
