I HAVE SEEN RECALLS FOR OTHER CHEVROLET PICKUPS OF THE SAME YEAR (95) WITH ABS FAILURES. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH STOPPING DISTANCE IN LOW SPEED SITUATIONS MANY TIMES. THE VEHICLE DOES NOT SLOW DOWN AT ALL FOR THE FIRST 25-50 FEET, IT SEEMS TO FREE-WHEEL. THIS PROBLEM HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE. I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION OF BRAKING PROBLEMS FOR MY VEHICLE. *AK
