SEATS
THE FRONT SEATS ROCK UNPREDICTABLY. THEY ROCK BOTH FORWARD AND REWARD UNDER ACCELERATION AND BRAKING AS WELL AS ROUGH TERRAIN. THIS IS IRRITATING AS WELL AS A SAFETY CONCERN AS IT IS DIFFICULT TO BRAKE/ACCELERATE CONSISTENTLY WITH THE MOVEMENT IN THE SEAT. THE DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AS WELL AS GM CANADA AND I HAVE HAD THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS SEAT REPLACED. THERE IS STILL SOME MOVEMENT IN THE SEATS PARTICULARLY THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE DEALER NOW CLAIMS THE MOVEMENT THAT IS STILL REMAINING IS A NORMAL CONDITION. *AK

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:12V/24V/48V BATTERY
ORGINAL DELCO BATTERY LEAKED ACID ALL OVER FENDER WELL AND FLOOR OF GARAGE. UPON INVESTIGATING , FOUND THAT POSITIVE POST WAS LOOSE FROM BATTERY AND LEAKING. REPLACE WITH ANOTHER DELCO, SUPPOSE TO BE A BETTER MODEL AND CORRECTED THE PROBLEM THEY WERE HAVING. AGAIN IN ABOUT 18 MONTHS, THE SAME THING AGAIN. REPLACED AGAIN WITH SAME PROBLEM, THIS TIME I BOUGHT A SEARS DIE HARD, AND HOPEFULLY SOLVED THE PROBLEM. HEARD THE SAME STOREY FROM AT LEAST 10 FRIENDS AND BUSINESS ASSOCIATES. SHOULD HAVE REALIZED THEY HAD A PROBLEM. I THINK IT IS IN THE BOLT (TERMINAL) DISIGN. SHORTER BOLT (TERMINAL) ON NEGATIVE SIDE, AND EITHER THE LONGER BOLT ON THE POSITVE TERMANAL WAS PIERCING THE INNER WALL OF THE BATTERY, OR IT WASN'T GOING IN FAR ENOUGH AND CAUSING AN ELECTRICAL BAD CONNECTION, CAUSING A HEAT BUILD UP. I THINK YOU WILL FIND IN MOST CASES THIS WAS THE SAME PROBLEM, AND BOLT WAS CORODED TO NEARLY NOTHING IN THE CENTER OF POSITIVE BOLT. I SEE WHERE ON THE NEWER G.M . TRUCKS THIS HAS BEEN CHANGED AND I SURE HOPE I DON'T HAVE THAT PROBLEM. THANKS FOR LISTENING. *AK

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:12V/24V/48V BATTERY
THE METAL HYDRAULIC BRAKE LINE RUNNING FROM THE MASTER CYLINDER TO THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT DISC BRAKE ASSEMBLY RUPTURED, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LOSE ITS BRAKING POWER WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN. THIS LINE CROSSES THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND THEN RUNS ON TOP OF THE FRAME JUST UNDER WHERE THE BATTERY IS LOCATED. AFTER INSPECTING AND FINDING THE HOLE IT WAS VERY APPARENT THAT BATTERY ACID/CORROSION HAD DRIPPED ONTO THE LINE,, CAUSING IT TO BE EATEN AWAY. THE BATTERY IS ORGINAL EQUIPMENT AND MAINTANANCE FREE.
