VEHICLE JUST LOCKED UP, AND I WAS FORCED TO COAST DOWN A HILL FROM MY HOUSEINTYO UNCOMING TRAFFIC.. THIS HAS BEEN THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED WITH THIS VEHICLE, THE FIRST IME, I CALLED TRIPLE AAA AND HAD THE CAR TOWED TO ARROWAY CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP IN MOUNT KISCO NY. THIS IS WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THIS OCCURED WITH A 2005 CHEVROLET CAVALIER THT I PURCHASED FROM ARROWAY IN MOUNT KISCO, IT OCCURED SO FREQUENTLY, THAT I TURNED IT IN AND PURCHASED THE AVEO. UNFORTUNATELY, THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING WITH THIS CAR.
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2009-2010 Chevrolet Aveo and 2009 Pontiac G3 vehicles. The vehicles may contain brake fluid which does not protect against corrosion of the valves inside the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, affecting the closing motion of the valves.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the ABS valve corrodes it may result in longer brake pedal travel or reduced performance, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ABS module, free of charge, in any vehicle that did not have its module replaced under a previous customer satisfaction campaign. The recall began in late September 2014. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), and 1-800-762-2737 (Pontiac). GM's number for this recall is 14505.
