WHILE THE NHTSA INTERNET QUESTIONNAIRE RESTRICTS THE MANNER IN WHICH INCIDENTS CAN BE REPORTED, I HAVE EXPERIENCED MANY PROBLEMS RELATED TO THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ON MY '92 BRAVADA. I HAVE BROUGHT THESE TO THE ATTENTION OF MY DEALER ON SEVERAL WORK ORDERS, BUT HAVE CONSISTENTLY BEEN INFORMED THAT MY BRAKES FUNCTION "NORMALLY." THE PROBLEMS I HAVE EXPERIENCED REPEATEDLY INCLUDE I) ABILITY TO FULLY LOCK THE BRAKES ON ICY SURFACES AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND WITH STUDDED SNOW TIRES MOUNTED, AND II) EXPERIENCING A "HARD" PEDAL AND INADEQUATE BRAKING ACTION IN SPITE OF LITERALLY STANDING ON THE BRAKE ON DRY PAVEMENT. I CONSIDER THESE SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARDS, AND EMAILED OLDSMOBILE ABOUT THEM. THE RESPONSE WAS SIMPLY THAT MY VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN INCLUDED IN A RECALL FOR ANTI-LOCK BRAKES, BUT WHEN AND IF IT IS, I SHOULD GET MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER ASAP!
