AIR BAGS
I OWN A 2007 CHEVROLET SILVERADO (VIN [XXX]). RECENTLY I HAD AN AIR BAG SERVICE WARNING WHICH WAS DEALER DIAGNOSED AS A FAILED SENSOR AND THE UNIT REPLACED. MY REVIEW OF THE FAILED PART SHOWED THE SAME DAMAGE AS THE FAILED SENSOR I HAD REPLACED LAST YEAR. THE DAMAGE INDICATES THE SENSOR CASES WERE CRACKED OPEN BY OVER TIGHTENING OF THE MOUNTING HARDWARE (REFER TO THE ATTACHED PHOTOGRAPH). THE SENSOR IS A HIGH VALUE PART (PART PLUS INSTALLATION $ 375) THAT HAS TO HAVE A HIGH RELIABILITY. THE CORROSION PRESENT AT THE CASE FAILURE MUST HAVE CAUSED THE DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM TO SHOW A FAULT. SINCE THIS IS CRITICAL PART, AN INSTALLATION TORQUE MUST HAVE BEEN DESIGNATED AND THE TORQUE EITHER WAS WRONG OR IMPROPERLY ADJUSTED. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN STOPPING QUICKLY TO AVOID A DEER, THE BRAKE LINE LEADING TO THE REAR WHEELS FAILED. LUCKILY I DID NOT HIT THE DEER BUT IF IT WAS PEDESTRIAN OR ANOTHER VEHICLE LATER IN THE TRIP THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN FATALITY. THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THESE RUSTY BRAKE LINES FAILING. MY TRUCK 8 YEARS OLD WITH <72,000 MILES. I LIVE IN THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE "SNOW BELT". MY MECHANIC SAYS HE SEES MULTIPLES OF THESE EVERY MONTH. HE HAS A NOTE ATTACHED TO THE LIFT FOR DIRECTIONS ON CONNECTIONS BECAUSE HE DOES IT SO OFTEN. I LOST ALL BRAKE FLUID TO THE GROUND AND HAD NO BRAKES! I HAD A 12,000 # TRAILER BEHIND ME. THANKFULLY THIS TRAILER HAS GREAT BRAKES OF ITS OWN OR I WOULD HAVE NEVER STOPPED (WAS ON A DOWNHILL)
