Three times our vehicle engine has abruptly stopped running in crowded interstate traffic, endangering the lives of us and occupants of adjacent vehicles.the first was august 7, 2004 on interstate 40 near kingman az.our first thought was that we ran out of gas, but the gauge registered !/4 full and when we added gas it took only 22.8 gallons (31 gallon tank).the second was may 23, 2005 on interstate 25 passing through colorado springs co.the gas tank was 3/4 full.fortunately, we were able to coast into the right lane and off to the right shoulder without causing an accident.we were towed to team chevrolet service department (719-380-6020) in colorado springs who found "lean code", suspected fuel pump problem, but vehicle seemed ok in 2 road test drives.

My anti-lock brakes activate at low speeds.we first noticed it around 37,000 miles, but now it occurs almost every time we apply the brakes at low speed at 39,000 miles.we discussed the problem with two chevy garages - both admitted that it was a common, known corrosion problem that requires either cleaning the brake sensors for approximately $200 or replacing them at a cost of approximately $460.this is a huge safety issue for us.the van drifts forward too far when we stop and we are concerned that we will either hit another car or possibly a pedestrian.we are concerned that this will be an ongoing problem with the vehicle as we are located in new york state and salt is a common winter corrosive.
While traveling down a steep grade while applying the brakes, a severe shaking of the steering wheel and wheels occurred.it was so severe the steering wheel shook out of my hands.once back on level grade for a mile or so, applying the brakes didn't result in the severe shaking.from that point on while driving on any steep hill or mountain, the same thing occurs.the brake pads and rotors were replaced last year, but that has not fixed the issue.
