Chevy S10 - GMC S15 and Sonoma Brake Problems - Car Forums

as I slow down and am braking everything is OK until I get to about 5 mph then there is a vibration in the brake pedal and the truck pulls to the left. As I get close to stopping completely, it then stops and normal braking resumes. I pulled the ABS fuse and now it doesn't do it but I guess I don't have ABS now. I am guessing a sensor or the motor on the ABS...not really sure. Any Ideas out there? Bob

There a TSB on it. Check your front wheel sensors for corrosion under the mounting bracket.
Basically remove the bracket sensor mount, remove corrosion, apply light coat of grease and reinstall.

#37 of 47 The Pedal will not go down by geroname

Some times when I go to hit the breaks. The Pedal will not go down, I have to jam it in or release and reapply to get them to work. It does not have a pattern when it does it. It has happened when im stopping in traffic or as I�m hitting the breaks and hit a bump or as I�m stopping at a light. Some time it feels like it pulls to the left and there is a vibration in the upper left of my dash you can hear it, sounds like where the booster is. AS it is happening I feel it grabbing a little and grinding but it just doesn�t want to go down like it is being held up. I have replaced both calipers already. Any thoughts?
