SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN APPLYING BRAKES WHICH CAUSES STEERING WHEEL TO LOCK UP, RESULTING IN LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. THIS OCCURS AT A LOW SPEED AS WELL AS AT A COMPLETE STOP. DEALER STATES THAT A "HIGHER STEERING EFFORT W/SITTING STILL W/BRAKES APPLIED" IS NORMAL. WHEN ASK TO TRY IT FOR HIMSELF, HE REFUSED. LEADING ME TO BELIEVE IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THEM TO USE THE "HIGHER STEERING EFFORT" THEORY. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN THE WHEEL OR STEER WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED AT A LOW SPEED OR AT A STOP!!!

#753301October 16, 2001
POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
AUTOMATIC FAILS TO SHIFT INTO LOWER GEARS FOR ENGINE BRAKING. WHEN DECENDING A STEEP GRADE THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILS TO APPLY. THIS HAS THE SAME EFFECT OF PUTTING THE TRUCK IN NEUTRAL WHEN GOING DOWN HILL. WHEN DRIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IN THAT IT REQUIRES THE BRAKES TO DO THE WORK OF SLOWING THE TRUCK. IF THE BRAKES OVERHEAT THEN THE TRUCK WILL "RUN AWAY". *AK
