Record by record

4 records state a cause or a remedy. Each record is shown as short labels in the order fault → finding the cause → correction. Press a label to narrow to the records that state it.

Component named as the cause

How it is said to have ended

  • says it was fixed1
  • says it held for a while1
  • says it did not fix it1

A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

Known issuesUnwanted ABS activation at low speed (front wheel speed sensor mounting corrosion)4

  1. Recall2000–2002 GMC YUKON XL ・ 2004-11-05

    ABS activation at low speeds in Canadian Atlantic provinces

    1. 1Fault

    2. 2Finding the cause

    3. 3Correction

      Not stated

      What the documents say to do

      Unwanted ABS activation at low speed (front wheel speed sensor mounting corrosion)

      Confirm

      • The reading should be at least 350 mV AC; if it is less, the wheel speed sensor must be replaced.

      Repair

      1. Dealers remove the sensor, clean its mounting surface on the bearing, apply rust inhibitor and grease, reinstall it and check peak-to-peak output voltage.
      2. The passage heading states that the repair is cleaning the wheel speed sensor mounting surface.

      Caution

      • Do not pry the sensor out of the bore; prying breaks the sensor body off in the bore.

    Cause
    Certain vehicles located in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland & Labrador may experience unwanted Antilock Brake System (ABS) activation and increased stopping distances during low-speed brake application (less than 16 km/h and greater than 6 km/h). This condition does not set any ABS codes nor does it illuminate the ABS warning lamp. Correction: Dealers will remove the wheel speed sensor and thoroughly clean the wheel speed sensor mounting surface on the bearing, apply Zinc-X to the cleaned surface, grease the mounting surface, reinstall the wheel speed sensor, and check the output voltage to ensure the wheel speed signal is within specifications.
  2. Owner complaint2000 GMC YUKON XL ・ 2005-08-22

    ABS sensor failure; vehicle continues forward when braking with brake pedal vibration

    1. 1Fault

      WHEN BRAKING TO A STOP ,THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO MOVE FORWARD FARTHER THAN WHAT IS NORMALLY EXPECTED WITH A VIBRATING IN THE BRAKE PEDAL.

    Read the sentences of the record
    Fault
    ABS WOULD GO OFF ON DRY ROADS JUST BEFORE VEHICLE STOPPED.
    Remedy
    WE HAD THE WHOLE WHEEL BEARING ASSEMBLY REPLACED BY A NON DEALER GARAGE TO THE TUNE OF $382.47.
    Outcome
    NOW ONE YEAR LATER THE PROBLEM IS BACK.
