 When coming to a stop and suddenly without warning, my brakes began pulsating rapidly, eventually stopping about 10 feet beyond where i intended to stop. fortunately there were no vehicles in front of me an none coming through the intersection. shortly afterwards, i had the vehicles brake system evaluated only to find out the root cause is the anti-lock brake sensors activating due to corrosion and rusting. i was informed that this issue has been typical with these models of vehicles for many years. in reading online posts, i seen this is a common and known issue, but the dealer does not recognize it, therefore a recall should be issued because this is a serious safety concern which could have resulted in bodily injury or death! *tr

 Severely rusted brake lines throughout. line ruptured while vehicle was traveling at approximately 30 mph on a residential street. no injuries or damage but for a vehicle of this age to look like it does underneath is despicable. i've lived in new england all of my life and have owned and worked on several older vehicles than my current truck and have never seen corrosion this bad underneath. replacing all lines with stainless steel immediately. how this didn't happen sooner is difficult to believe. *tr

 My 2005 chevy silverado 1500 z71 has rear drum brakes. due to shimmy when breaking in april 2008, we replaced rear brakes pads. when replacing them, it was discovered that they were originally installed wrong. they were then put together correctly and have had serious issues ever since. i have replaced brake pads and drums twice in the past year and a half. and still, it needs to be done again. i have had it to two different shops. the brakes seem to be consistently hot causing the shoes to fall apart. *tr

 While braking hard for a turn i came up on quickly, and as i approached slower speeds, the anti lock braking system completely released allowing the truck to surge forward. i was just beginning my turn and i believe there was a small amount of sand on the roadway that caused a wheel to slide momentarily but all the brakes released in a manner that could have caused an accident if there was a vehicle in front of me. the truck moved forward for a full 2 seconds prior to the brakes re-engaging. the brakes did not immediately reapply as you would expect a properly working system to behave. it wasn't the rapid application you get like when your on ice. the condition has not repeated itself to date although i have not tried to recreate the same conditions either.

 Purchased 2005 brand new from dealer. i am familiar with what to do to break-in a new vehicle. i occasionally cross a mountain, and when i apply the brakes lightly, they immediately start to pulsate very noticeably. to get them to stop pulsating, i must apply the brakes fairly hard. this happens all the time on hills/mountains. i was hoping that this would work itself out with time. i presently have 21,000 miles on the truck. i am the only driver since new and it has never seen winter here in pennsylvania. i rotate the tires every 5,000 miles and that hasn't made any difference. i have inspected the brakes and they look fine. the brakes are very strong on this silverado. *tr

 On a 2005 truck with 20,000 miles on and it's a babied truck the brake rotors appear warped as it has a wave like braking. even worse when braking on a surface with poor contact, sandy, sand on concrete or blackop, wet cement the anti-lock brakes completely release and the truck jumps forward like no brakes are applied 15 ft. or so. i'd much rather have no anti-locks because at least i can use a stabbing motion if needed. these brakes don't work like normal anti-locks. it fully releases and there's too much lag time before they resume braking. i can live with the speedometer reading wrong at times, the knock in the steering column was repaired, even the warped rotors that started at 12,000 miles but these anti-lock brakes are a safety hazard. please look into these before someone is seriously hurt. this has happened multiple times spanning several years. *tr
