DT; 2000 CHEVROLET K1500 SILVERADO. THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES ENGAGE UNDER NORMAL STOPPING. WHEN PULLING INTO A STOP THE BRAKES DO NOT STOP THE VEHICLE, AND THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES ARE TRIGGERED, AND THIS CREATES A SLOW STOP. THIS HAPPENS AT LEAST 50% OF THE TIME, AND THIS IS UNPREDICTABLE. IT IS PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE. HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC, BUT DONE RESEARCH AND KNOW THAT THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT AND CONCERN. HAD THE VEHICLE TO THE MECHANIC FOR OTHER THINGS ,AND THEY HAVE NOT TOLD ME ABOUT ANY RECALLS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST 4 MONTHS. NO ACCIDENTS OR CRASHES. *AK
