Abs motor started running loadly continuously. Abs light on. Had to have motor disconnected, so don't have abs now. Our mechanic said he has seen several 1999-2000 gmc/chevrolet trucks with this problem. We contacted general motors; they said there is no recall, truck out of warranty, it's our problem. We are told it will cost approx. $1300 for repair. We believe it is a manufacturer/safety defect.*ak

Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip · Master Cylinder
On jan. 14, 2000. My abs and brake warning lights came on. Both the electronic brake control module and master cylinder were defective. They were replaced by dealer. Now brakes go to floor. Pull to rt, and are mushy. I think the replacement parts are defective, but the dealer says they won't do anymore. These brakes are still defective and make the vehicle a hazard to drive. *ak
