SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I OWN A 2003 GMC SIERRA 1500 HD. THIS PAST WINTER I ALMOST HIT A SNOW PLOW DUE TO A BRAKE LINE RUPTURE. UPON INSPECTION IT WAS FOUND THAT ALL THE BRAKE LINES WERE SEVERELY RUSTED AND VERY BRITTLE. I HAD THE ONE LINE REPLACE WHICH COST ME NEARLY $300. NO THIS PAST WEEK ANOTHER RUPTURE ALMOST CAUSED ME TO REAR END ANOTHER VEHICLE. THIS TIME I'M GOING TO HAVE TO REPLACE EVERY LINE IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM. ALSO THE ABS SYSTEM KICKS IN WHEN TRAVELING AT SLOWER SPEEDS (5-10 MPH). THE CAUSE OF THIS IS UNKNOWN TO ME AT THIS TIME. UPON DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH ONLINE I FIND THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME MODEL AND NEARLY THE SAME YEAR VEHICLES, HAVING EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEMS. THEN I FIND ON YOUR SITE WHERE YOU HAVE STARTED AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE PROBLEM. NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE10010 THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THESE LINES TO BE FAULTY IN ONLY 6-7 YEARS TIME. IT'S LIKELY TO COST ME NEARLY A $1,000 TO HAVE ALL OF THESE LINES CHANGED. MY QUESTION IS IF THE NHTSA FINDS GM RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE FAULTY LINES AND THEY ISSUE A RECALL, WILL I BE REIMBURSED FOR HAVING ALREADY PAID FOR THE REPAIR? *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
SAFETY ABOUT GMC SIERRA TRUCK ABS BRAKING SYSTEM. THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS TRUCK FOR ABS ACTIVATION WHEN STOPPING AND COULD CAUSE A CRASH. I EXPERIENCED THIS AND THEY DID REPLACE OR CLEAN THE WHEEL SENSOR AND TEST FOR PROPER OPERATION. NOW I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THEY WILL NOT CORRECT IT. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE TO ME FOR I WILL BE TOWING A TRAILER AND DEPEND ON MY BRAKES TO STOP. THEY WANT ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AT MY EXPENSE. I TOLD THEM THAT I DISCONNECTED THE SENSOR AND THE BRAKES WORK FINE. I BELIEVE THAT THEY CORRECT THIS AND ALSO I DID HAVE A BRAKE LINE FAILURE WHERE I HAD TO PAY THEM $700.00 FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF MY BRAKE LINES. I AM FURIOUS ABOUT THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND CHEAP BUILDING OF OUR CARS AND TRUCKS. DO INVESTIGATE THIS AND REPLY. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2005 GMC 2500HD PICKUP TRUCK, HVAC BLOWER SPEED CONTROLLER/RELAY CONNECTOR GOT HOT, BURNED OUT CONNECTOR AND WIRE, LOTS OF SMOKE. IT HAPPENED WHEN TURN FAN TO HIGH. THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO CONTACT RESISTANCE AT THE CONNECTOR. THE WIRE HARNESS END IS TINTED COPPER, THE RELAY/CONTROLLER CONNECTOR IS BARE METAL. DUE TO GALVANIZATION OF DIFFERENT METAL IN THE CONNECTION SYSTEM, THE CONNECTOR IS UNDERSIZE FOR THE BLACK WIRE, WHICH IS THE RETURN CURRENT BECAUSE THE BLOWER ASSEMBLY IS PLASTIC. THE RESISTANCE BETWEEN THE CONTACT POINT OF THE CONNECTOR ACT AS HEATER AND GOT HOT, BURN OUT CONNECTION AND CONNECTOR HOUSING. THE SPEED CONTROL UNIT, WHICH COMPOSED OF FEW POWER RESISTOR IS MOUNTED IN THE AIR STREAM THAT IT WILL COLLECT VAPOR WATER DUE TO CONDENSATION WHEN AC IS IN USED. THIS CAUSE CORROSION IN THE SPEED CONTROLLER/RELAY BOARD. THE WORK AROUND IS BYPASS THE CONNECTOR BY SHORTING THE BLACK WIRE FROM THE BLOWER MOTOR TO THE BLACK INPUT WIRE THAT BURNED OUT. CUT THE INPUT BLACK WIRE, WIRE NUT IT TOGETHER WITH A 12 AWG JUMPER WIRE, CUT THE BLACK WIRE AT THE BLOWER MOTOR, WIRE NUT IT TO THE OTHER END OF THE JUMPER WIRE. AFTER THE JUMPER PUT IN, BLOWER FAN WORKS IN ALL SPEED AND NO SMOKE FROM CONNECTOR AND WIRE. *TR

VISIBILITY
WHILE DRIVING IN RAIN WITH WIPERS ON INTERMITTENT, THEY SUDDENLY RAN FULL-TIME AND WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. ONLY WAY TO TURN OFF WIPERS IS PULL THE FUSE. WITH FUSE OUT, WIPERS DO NOT WORK AT ALL, AND DRIVER'S DOOR MUST BE OPENED TO ACCESS FUSE AREA. THIS IS A HAZARD, AS WIPERS ARE NOT AVAILABLE WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT OPENING DOOR. *TR

STEERING
MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING OUR 2004 GMC SIERRA PICKUP ON HIGHWAY 101 IN THE CENTRAL COAST OF CALIFORNIA. WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH A BOLT FELL OUT OF THE STEERING COLUMN LEAVING HIM WITH ABSOLUTELY NO STEERING. HE CRASHED INTO A GUARDRAIL WHICH STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE STEERING WHEEL SPINS AROUND LIKE A ROULETTE WHEEL AND CLEARLY IS NOT ATTACHED TO ANY PART OF THE STEERING COLUMN. THE RESPONDING TOW TRUCK DRIVER CLAIMED HE HAS NEVER SEEN A STEERING WHEEL LIKE THIS - NOT EVEN ON A VEHICLE THAT HAS BEEN WRECKED. *TR

SUSPENSION, SUSPENSION:FRONT, SUSPENSION:REAR
THIS IS A CONSTANT AND ONGOING ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY OR ROAD AT SPEEDS ABOVE 15 OR 20 MPH THE FRONT SUSPENSION WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHEN HITTING BRIDGE EXPANSIONS, ANY SORT OF ROAD BUMP, MAN HOLE COVERS WITH MINIMAL EDGES, ETC. THE VIOLENT SHAKING IN THE SUSPENSION WILL THEN STOP AND NOT BE FELT DURING NORMAL SMOOTH HIGHWAY OR ROAD TRAVEL BUT RECURS EACH AND EVERY TIME ROAD BUMPS ARE ENCOUNTERED. THE SHAKING IS VIOLENT AND FEELS AS THOUGH THE WHOLE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE IS ABOUT TO FALL OFF. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR MORE THAN A YEAR NOW. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE EXAMINED BY THE DEALER AND INDEPENDENT SHOPS AND THEY ALL SAY THE SUSPENSION COMPONENTS ALL LOOK INTACT AND IN GOOD SERVICE CONDITION. *TR
