HELLO I AM EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SYMPTOMS DESCRIBED IN GM RECALL 05068C "THESE VEHICLES MAY HAVE A CONDITION PERMITTING CORROSION TO OCCUR BETWEEN THE FRONT HUB/BEARING ASSEMBLY AND THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR. IF THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING AT A SPEED OF GREATER THAN 6 KM/H (3.7 MPH) BUT LESS THAN 16 KM/H (10 MPH), THE CORROSION MAY CAUSE AN UNWANTED ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) ACTIVATION. IF THIS CONDITION OCCURRED WHERE STOPPING DISTANCE IS LIMITED, A CRASH COULD OCCUR. " HOWEVER, MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE BREAKPOINTS, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE A 2000 CHEVROLET TAHOE. I CAN DEMONSTRATE THAT THIS IS THE PROBLEM IN TWO WAYS, FIRST BY REPRODUCING WITH A SCAN TOOL THAT SHOWS UNEXPECTED ABS ACTIVATION DURING STOPPING AT THIS LOW SPEED, AND SECOND AFTER PULLING THE ABS FUSE THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT HAPPEN. THIS CLEARLY POINTS TO THE ABS ISSUE MENTIONED IN THE RECALL. I HAVE CONTACTED TWO LOCAL DEALERSHIPS, AND AFTER I ASKED ABOUT RECALLS THEY SAID MY VIN WAS INVALID. THEN I CONTACTED THE CHEVY CONTACT CENTER AND THEY SAID THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. SO NOW WHAT - SHOULD I JUST REPLACE THE ABS SENSORS AND MOVE ON, OR IS THERE ANY CHANCE OF GETTING THIS ACKNOWLEDGED BY GM AS PART OF THE RECALL?

THIS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE LAST WEEK. WHILE ACCELERATING THE GAS PEDAL HAS GOTTEN STUCK AND THE VEHICLE INCREASES WITH SPEED. IN A PANIC I SHIFTED THE TRANSMISSION INTO NEUTRAL; THE ENGINE KEPT REVVING. AS I CONTINUED TO ATTEMPT TO UN-STICK THE GAS PEDAL I NOTICED IT WAS ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR. AFTER ABOUT 20 SECONDS IT FINALLY UN-STUCK WHEN I STOMPED ON IT SEVERAL TIMES. THIS HAPPENED FIRST ON A PUBLIC STREET AND LAST WHILE ENTERING THE HIGHWAY. *TR
