WHEN TRAVELING BETWEEN 40 AND 50 MPH THE PICKUP HAS A VIBRATION THAT HAS BEEN DEEMED "NORMAL" BY THE SERVICE TECH. THIS DETERMINATION WAS BY A FACTORY REP. NOT THE LOCAL REP AS HE WAS UNAWARE OF ANY NOISE AT THIS SPEED IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE. THE TECH. DID HEAR AND FEEL THIS VIBRATION. THIS CONTINUES TO BE AN EVERYDAY OCCURRENCE. *JB

1999 GMC SIERRA ABS MOTOR STAYS ON CONTINUOUSLY. HAD TO PULL THE FUSE TO STOP IT. THE EBCM HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE REPAIR COST $1,105.00. THE TECHNICIAN SAID HE HAD SEEN IT BEFORE AND I SEE THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED OF THE SAME ISSUE ON THIS SITE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT 46,775 MILES WHICH IS ALSO CONSISTENT WITH OTHER DATA PRESENTED. GMC NEEDS TO DO A RECALL AND COMPENSATE US FOR THE EXPENSIVE REPAIRS. *JB
