  BRAKE LINES ARE SEVERELY CORRODED. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT. ALSO OWN AN 87 & 83 MERCEDES BENZ, NO ISSUES WITH CORROSION ON ANY FUEL OR BRAKE LINES. BRAKES ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT SYSTEM ON A VEHICLE. GM SHOULD BE MADE TO FIX THIS, THIS IS NEGLIGENT CORPORATE BEHAVIOR. *KB

• 12/06/2011· SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

  MY BRAKE LINE FAILED ABOVE THE FUEL TANK, LOST PRESSURE TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM WHICH RESULTED IN NO BRAKES. WHY WOULD CAR MANUFACTURES USE STEEL BRAKE LINES THAT CAN ROT OUT VERY QUICKLY WHEN EXPOSED TO NORMAL DRIVING ELEMENTS. *TR

• 12/02/2002· STEERING

  I EXPERIENCED CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE AS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, SOMETIMES GOING AROUND CURVES, MY STEERING WOULD GIVE THE FEEL OF JUST GOING LOOSE. ON A COUPLE OF OCCASIONS WHEN THE STEERING WOULD "GRAB" HOLD AGAIN I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF MY TRUCK. I FIRST EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM ABOUT A MONTH AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. WHEN I INQUIRED WITH DEALERS IN MAINE AND FLORIDA THEY COULDN'T IDENTIFY A FIX WITHOUT EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM. RECENTLY A DEALER IN COLORADO DISCLOSED TO ME THAT GM HAD IDENTIFIED THE CULPRIT OF THIS ANOMALY TO BE THE EGR VALVE IN THE POWER STEERING. I SENT A LETTER TO GM STATING MY CONERN FOR CUSTOMER SAFETY AND RECEIVED A POLITE BUT POOR ANSWER BASICALLY CITING COMPLIANCE WITH SAFETY STANDARDS OR GM'S DETERMINATION THAT A PRODUCT DIDN'T MEET SAFETY STANDARDS. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A SET STANDARD THAT APPLIES TO SUDDEN CHANGES TO STEERABILITY OF A VEHICLE DUE TO SUCH A DEFECT. I'VE DISCUSSED THIS WITH AN OWNER OF A 97 CHEVROLET THAT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND HE ALSO EXPRESSED DISBELIEF THAT THIS WASN'T A SAFETY CONCERN. WHEN I POINTED OUT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP THAT IN MY OPINION THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY CONCERN FOR GMC HE COULD ONLY SYMPATHETCALLY AGREE AND POINT OUT THAT A VOLUNTARY RECALL ON WOULD HAVE TO BE A COMPANY DECISION. THEY DID POINT OUT THOUGH, THIS PROBLEM IS NOT UNCOMMON IN THE 1997 SERIES TRUCKS AND THAT WHEN THE DEALERSHIP BROUGHT IT TO GMS ATTENTION, WHICH WAS APPARENTLY ONLY ABOUT A YEAR AGO, THEY WERE JUST DISCOVERING THE CAUSE THEMSELVES. I AM GRAVELY CONCERNED AT HOW MANY PEOPLE MAY HAVE BEEN TURNED AWAY FROM REPAIR SHOPS PRIOR TO THIS DEFECT BEING IDENTIFIED AND THUS STILL DRIVING AROUND WITH THIS DANGEROUS POTENTIAL FOR TRAGEDY STILL LINGERING. THANK YOU. DT

• 12/01/2006· VISIBILITY

  PERSISTENT FAILURE OF WINDSHIELD WIPER OPERATION UNDER NORMAL VEHICLE OPERATION. THIS LED TO LACK OF VISIBILITY THROUGH WINDSHIELD. THERE IS A WELL DOCUMENTED RECALL OF THE WIPER MODULE ASSEMBLY FOR GM TRUCKS/VANS. MY TRUCK IS A 1997 GMC K1500. WHEN I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY PARTICULAR VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL VIN RANGE. THERE IS NO DOUBT MY TRUCK HAS THE BAD PARTS ILLUSTRATED IN THE RECALL(S) (EG, EA02006). MY COMPLAINT IS THAT IT SHOULD BE INCLUDED AND FIXED BY GM, AND THAT BY SOME SORT OF VIN TECHNICALITY OR ERROR, THEY REFUSE TO FIX. WHAT IS MY COURSE OF ACTION TO RECTIFY THIS SITUATION? *NM

• 12/01/2000· SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

  INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE DUE TO PREMATURE INITIATION OF ABS PUMP SYSTEM. *AK

• 12/01/1998· SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

  CONSUMER STATES THAT THE BRAKES PULL TO THE RIGHT, DEALER STATES THE PROBLEM IS THE OVERSIZED TIRES CAUSING THE ABS TO REACT WRONG, CONSUMER THINKS THIS IS INCORRECT DUE TO DISCONNECTION OF THE ABS AND THE SAME PROBLEMS EXISTING, NEW HOSES, CALIPERS, PADS, AND ROTORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. *SLC

RESULT WAS LOSS OF LOSS OF PRESSURIZATION/BRAKE FLUID, MUSHY BRAKE PEDAL, AND GREATLY DECREASED BRAKING PERFORMANCE. INSPECTION REVEALS SIGNIFICANT RUST AREAS ON ALL STEEL BRAKE LINES REQUIRING COMPLETE REPLACEMENT OF ALL BRAKE LINES.

• 11/23/1999· STEERING

  STEERING BECOMES IRRATIC WHEN TURNING. VEHICLE SUDDENLY OVERSTEERS THEN RETURNS BACK TO NORMAL ,CAUSING MOMENTARY LOSS OF CONTROL. DEALER REPLACED (SVS)SENSOR TO CORRECT PROBLEM. *AK

• 11/22/1999· SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

  ON-GOING / INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH BRAKE SYSTEM; BRAKE PEDAL WOULD BE HARD TO PRESS, CAUSING EXTENDED STOPING DISTANCE. VEHICLE BEEN IN / OUT OF DEALER SHOP ON THREE OCCASIONS AND NOTHING COULD BE FOUND. CAN NHTSA HELP IN THIS MATTER. ALSO REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER. *AK

• 11/21/2003· FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VISIBILITY

  THE VEHICLE STALLED 5 TIMES IN ONE MORNING WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. THE WEATHER WARMED UP OUTSIDE AND THE VEHICLE RAN AND STARTED FINE. THE NEXT EVENING THE VEHICLE STARTED FINE, I GOT 1/2 BLOCK DOWN THE ROAD IT STALLED AGAIN. I WAITED FOR A FEW MINUTES AND IT RAN FINE. THE NEXT MORNING IT STARTED FINE AND I DROVE IT FOR MILES, HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH IT STALLING. WE CALLED GMC TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR, BECAUSE THE WIPERS WOULD WORK WHEN THEY WANTED TO WORK. NOT WHEN YOU NEEDED THEM TO WORK. THEY HAD TOLD US THAT THERE WAS ALSO AN IGNITION COIL PROBLEM WITH THIS TRUCK-THEY CALLED THE GMC DEALER THAT WAS TO DO THE RECALL WORK. A FAULTY IGNITION COIL CAN GIVE THE SAME SIDE EFFECTS AS A DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP. WE DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, WHEN WE TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF IT WOULD NOT RESTART. THE RECALL WORK WAS PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE, BUT STILL WOULD NOT START. THE GMC DEALER TOLD US IT WAS MOST LIKELY THE FUEL PUMP, THE DEALER TOLD US THE FUEL PUMPS IN THIS VEHICLE GO OUT "FREQUENTLY." BUT, HE OFFERED US TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP FOR $450.+ INCLUDING LABOR. OR SELL US ONE OVER THE COUNTER FOR APPROXIMATELY $425.00 + TAX. AND WE COULD INSTALL IT OURSELVES. NEEDLESS TO SAY, WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO OUR HOUSE AND NOW ARE DECIDING WHAT TYPE OF FUEL PUMP SHOULD BE BOUGHT FOR A VEHICLE THAT THE FUEL PUMP GOES OUT FREQUENTLY IN. OUR BIGGEST CONCERN IS THAT THIS TRUCK HAS 85,066 MILES ON IT, AND HAS BEEN MAINTAINED TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS. WHY ARE THE VEHICLES FITTED WITH FAULTY/DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS. THE PUMP CAN CATCH ON FIRE, OR GO OUT IF YOU HIT TOO MANY BUMPS IN THE ROAD. THAT IS A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM OF A FAULTY PRODUCT. PLEASE LET US KNOW, HOW MANY FUEL PUMPS WE SHOULD PLAN ON REPLACING IN THE NORMAL LIFE OF THIS VEHICLE. *LA

• 11/18/2003· LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES

  I OWN A 97 GMC TRUCK. CURRENTLY, THE TRUCK HAS A LITTLE OVER 55,000 MILES. APPROXIMATELY, 2 YEARS AGO THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE FAILED TO OPEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO LEHMERS IN CONCORD AND THEY REPAIRED THE PROBLEM AT NO CHARGE TO ME... IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. LAST WEEK THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED ON THE DRIVER SIDE AND "STARTED TO SHOW SIGNS OF THE SAME PROBLEM" ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, I DECIDED TO "SAVE A BUCK" AND FIX THE PROBLEMS MYSELF. AFTER REMOVING THE DRIVER SIDE INTERIOR HANDLE ASSEMBLY, I WAS SHOCKED TO FIND THE HANDLE ITSELF CRACKED I.E. THE HANDLE ASSEMBLY IS POORLY DESIGNED. (IT'S PLASTIC.) I TOOK THE HANDLE ASSEMBLY TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SHOWED THE BROKEN HANDLE TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AND EXPLAINED HOW THIS WAS THE SECOND HANDLE. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID, "THEIR HANDS WERE TIED" AND COULD NOT HELP ME BECAUSE EVERYTHING WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE SERVICE MANAGER DID NOT FIND ANY SERVICE BULLETINS CONCERNING DOOR HANDLES. (I ALSO SUBSCRIBE TO AN ONLINE SERVICE MANUAL PROVIDER CALLED ALLDATA.COM. THEY INCLUDE TECHNICAL BULLETINS THE SERVICE SHOPS GET FROM GM. I DID NOT FIND ANY BULLETINS CONCERNING DOOR HANDLES.) WHILE STILL AT THE DEALERSHIP, I BOUGHT A NEW HANDLE. IT LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE THE OLD ONE. IT COMES WITH A 1-YEAR WARRANTY. I CALLED GMC AND THEY SAID THAT BECAUSE THE ITEM IS OUT OF WARRANTY, THEY COULDN'T HELP ME. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP ALSO SAID THERE WAS NO RECORD OF ANY OTHER DOOR HANDLE PROBLEMS. *LA
