| 98 tahoe, has abs braking issue. when driving at slow speeds, the abs will engage during stopping and severly extend the stopping distance required to completly stop. pedal is very spongy and does not respond like it should. multiple shops have stated the abs is a repeating issue with the tahoes. have had many close accidents and do not feel safe allowing others to drive vehicle as they are not used to the stopping distance required. this needs to be addressed. | |||

| My husband bought off a private party a 1998 tahoe, for a daughter. she has complained that at less than 10 miles an hour sometimes the brakes will fail. we have had the car checked out but they could not find a reason for the failure. i have her car and have been driving it i see also that at less than 10 miles an hour sometimes the brakes will fail. i called the chevy dealership and they said they have never heard of this --- something is wrong with this vehicles braking system and no one seems to know what it is. have you heard of this and if so what can i have done to correct this problem before an accident occurs. i am very concerned when i drive this vehicle. i believe my daughter did hit the back of another vehicle when it occurred to her -- i would say approximately 2 years ago. *tr | |||

| My 1998 chevy tahoe has an abs event when coming to a stop at approximately 6 miles per hour. this just started happening at around 60k miles. it has gotten progressively worse as the miles accumulated. currently i have 80k on my suv. this increases my stopping distance an worries me about how much control i have if i need to stop quickly. i have not done anything yet to fix the problem. i just started researching this and found that there is a limited recall already happening on gm suvs and trucks from 1999 - 2002. i am scared to take it to the dealer due to the costs. everytime i come to a stop, the abs kicks on. *nm | |||

| This is to address the recent expanded recall of gm light trucks/suvs. i have a 1998 tahoe and have been experiencing the exact same issues that have caused gm to recall the trucks/suvs due to rust affecting the abs system. i brought my vehicle to a chevrolet dealership and they confirmed that i am experiencing the same corrosion related issues that are addressed by the recall - however, because i have a 1998, gm will not provide me any assistance. when i inquired as to whether the wheel hub assembly (that houses the wheel speed sensor) in my vehicle is any different than the vehicles being recalled, the dealership confirmed that there was not any difference. my complaint specifically addresses the fact that gm has acknowledged that there is a faulty design in the wheel assembly, however, will not take any action to remedy this situation - ultimately leaving my vehicle (as well as many others built in 1998 or 1997) as unsafe to operate. *nm | |||

| I have had a problem with the abs brake not working now for about 2 years. the abs will kick in at 10 mph or less and will not stop the vehicle. the vehicle will slide and the tires just lock up. if i release and pump the brake, i am able to stop. i have learned to drive very slowly when coming to a stop but i feel that in an emergency, i may not be able to stop at all. i notice that gm has put out a recall for this exact same thing. they recently added mn & wi to that recall but not the earlier years. my tahoe is a 1998. i don't feel i should have to pay for repairs of a bad sensor, which is what a service tech had told me 2 years ago, when there is a known problem with the sensors. this is something that happens every single time i apply my brakes. *jb | |||

| Dt: the contact stated the abs was making a grinding noise on the driver's side. the vehicle was taken to the dealership, and they found the grease was getting between the wheel bearings, causing them to slip. there was no remedy offered at that time. therefore, she disconnected the fuse for the abs in april 2005. when she recently tried to reconnect the fuse the grinding noise worsened and she disconnected the fuse. *ak updated 12/27/2005 - *nm | |||

| A current investigation esists (pe05-020) for unwanted abs brake activation on model year 1999 - 02 gm c/k series vehicles in salt belt states. this investigation should be further expanded to include, at least, model year 1998 as this condition is also exhibited in this vehicle. reference vehicle is a 1998 chevrolet tahoe with 63,000 miles. condition has existed for more than 2 years. during this time repairs were made to correct the problem, which were effective for less than a year. problem condition has returned. problem has resulted in minor contact with other vehicles and objects in that a driver can not predict when the problem will occur and braking distance is extended even on dry pavement. situation is worsened when in reverse and problem occurs. | |||

| Anti-lock brake falses at 6 mph. no difference if accelerating or de-accelerating. in the beginning the problem was intermitten, but with time the frequency of falsing increased. finally a trouble code set indicating the right front sensor. after following the procedures in the second edition of the c/k truck servce manual it was determined that the right sensor didn't pass the mv test. the sensor was repalced w/a sensor from a gm dealership. the sensor didn't correct the problem. after following the service manual it directs you to replace ebcm after additional testing. a ebcm was purchased at a gm dealership. the dealership did program in the correct tire size. the falsing at 6 mph contiunes with no improvement. a scan tool was plugged in with the following results: all three (3) sensors, the left, right sensor, and the rear wheel through the ecm. all three (3) sensors read the same until 6 mph is reached at which time the left front sensor will suddenly show 3 mph with the other two (2) sensors will still show 6 mph, the anti-lock falses. when the speed cheanges either > or < 6 mph, the falsing stops. the falsing occurrs with brake pedal applied or not. the mv test indicated the left front sensor was within spec's w/a mv read of 129. the left front sensor was replaced once again purchased from a gm dealership. the falsing continues and the test above with the scan tool was repeated with same results. the anti-lock does operate correctly when brakes are applied and a wheel slip takes place. your gm dealership can't really help without changing more componets. the problem exists today. number of failures: every time 6 mph. | |||

| My brakes on my 1998 tahoe, which i am the original owner, have had to be replaced 3 times. the anti-lock system engages on dry pavement causing the vehicle not to stop. this vehicle currently has 37,000 miles on it. gm will not fix because they say the warranty is up. i feel this is a defect and should be recalled. i have read that the systems on the newer vehicles have been improved because the one i have is substandard for the vehicles. the cost to repair this system is considerable, when i questioned the dealer they could not give me an accurate sum because as they got further into fixing it there is no way of knowing how much it will cost until it was done. who is to say it would work properly when they finished and i would have spent well over a thousand dollars. *jb | |||

| The brake failures are well known by all tahoe owners. the failures for the windshield wiper control assembly, brake light assembly are all related to poor quality electrical components not intended for any reasonable service life. junk by any quality standards. the service department at nelda stevenson chevrolet acknolwdged these components have high failure rates, but they get paid to correct them. the coolantconnector is an extememly poor design. despite threading into the intake, it is made of a poor quality material that breaks off at the entry to the manifold requiring removal of the manifold to remove the broken threads resulting in a $400 bill to replace a $12.95 part. again pathetic design and choice of materials to save a couple of dollars in manufacturing. as a design engineer, i find these choices by gm designers deplorable and will buy used bmws from now on. a bmw with 200,000 miles has more service life left in it than a brand new gm product. *ak | |||
