SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
ON OCT. 12, 20115, WHILE DRIVING ON A STATE HIGHWAY TO THE GROCERY STORE, AS I WAS SLOWING DOWN FOR A RED LIGHT THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR BRAKE LINE RUPTURED. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, I PURCHASED A NEW BRAKE LINE AND REPLACED IT. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE CALIPER BECAUSE OF CORROSION. DURING THE REPLACEMENT OF THE BRAKE LINE I INSPECTED THE OTHER BRAKE LINES. THEY WERE ALSO RUSTY. I CALLED MY SERVICE CENTER AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S A RESULT OF THE PRE-TREATMENT SOLUTION THEY SPRAY ON THE ROADS IN THE WINTER. ON JANUARY 11TH OF THIS YEAR, A SECOND BRAKE LINE RUPTURED WHEN A CAR PULLED OUT RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME ON THE SAME ROAD AS BEFORE. THIS TIME IT WAS THE BRAKE LINE THAT RUNS FROM THE MASTER CYLINDER TO THE ABS MODULE. I PURCHASED THIS 2007 GMC SIERRA 2500HD BRAND NEW IN NOV OF 07'. IT HAS 17,510 ORIGINAL MILES. I WASH THE UNDER CARRIAGE EVERY SPRING AS I HAVE ON ALL MY PREVIOUS VEHICLES. MY FIRST CHEV. PICKUP I HAD FOR 20 YEARS AND NEVER HAD A BRAKE LINE ISSUE!! WHEN I TALKED TO THE SERVICE MANAGER WHERE I HAVE MY VEHICLES SERVICED HE TOLD ME THEY ARE SEEING A LOT OF PICKUPS COMING IN WITH SIMILAR ISSUES. HE TOLD ME THAT THEY ARE INSTALLING THE NEW COPPER/ ZINC BRAKE LINES WHICH RESIST THE ROAD TREATMENTS. WHEN I ASKED IF THERE'S A CHARGE HE SAID FOR JUST REPLACING THE BRAKE LINES IT WOULD BE $1,500. BEING RETIRED ON A FIXED INCOME I CANNOT AFFORD ANYWHERE NEAR THAT MUCH! BEING THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE I FEEL GMC SHOULD RECALL AND REPLACE THESE INFERIOR BRAKE LINES. I CALLED GM TO ASK FOR HELP. THEY TOLD ME THE ONLY THING THEY COULD DO IS, BEING A LOYAL CUSTOMER, THEY WOULD GIVE ME $2,000 OFF A NEW TRUCK IF I WANTED TO TRADE IT IN. MY RESPONSE: WHY WOULD I TRADE IN A TRUCK THAT'S BOUGHT AND PAID FOR WITH ONLY 17,510 MILES ON IT AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION OTHERWISE FOR ANOTHER NEW TRUCK AND ANOTHER 6 YEARS OF PAYMENTS THAT WE CANNOT AFFORD! PLEASE HELP.

AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY DASH HAS LARGE GAPS/CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD. THESE RANGE FROM THE WINDSHIELD ALL THE WAY THE FRONT PIECE OF TRIP. THE DASH IS COMPLETELY SEPARATED. RIGHT IN THE CENTER OF THE DASH, AROUND THE AIRBAGS, AND THE OTHER SMALLER PARTS OR THE DASH ARE CRACKED TOO. I USE A SUN SHIELD, SO THAT IS NOT THE CASE. MY DAUGHTER AND I HAVE BOTH CUT OUR HANDS ON THE DASH. SHE WAS SO SURPRISED WHEN SHE GOT IN THE TRUCK THAT SHE ASKED IF I HAD A WRECK, AND THEN RAN HER HAND OVER THE DASH AND CUT HER PALM AD TWO FINGERS. I ALSO CUT MY HAND WHILE TRYING TO CLEAN IT SO THAT STUFF DOES NOT DROP DOWN THE CRACK, SUCH AS DIRT OR DUST, CAN'T THAT START A FIRE WITH THE WIRES AND THE HEATER DOWN THERE? ANOTHER THING IS MY VENTS DON'T WOK LIKE THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO. THE DASH IS SO BROKEN YOU CAN HEAR SOUNDS OF PLASTIC VIBRATING AND BLOWING IN THE VENTS. THIS DIRECTLY EFFECTS THE AIR FLOW TO, IT'S LIKE ITS NOT EVEN CONNECTED. THIS ALL HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE GARAGE STATIONARY NOT RUNNING.

SERVICE BRAKES
RUSTED OUT BRAKE LINE AT 72000 MILES. WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE I AM THE ONLY ONE. ITS A SHAME GM DOESN'T MAN UP AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM OF RUSTED OUT BRAKE LINES. LUCKILY I WAS IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE WHEN IT FAILED AND NOT RUNNING DOWN THE ROAD PULLING MY 4000 LB. BOAT. AND YES I HAVE READ ALL THE INFO ONLINE ABOUT THE NHTSB INVESTIGATING THIS PROBLEM AND LET GM OFF THE HOOK BY SAYING OWNERS SHOULD WASH THEIR CARS TO REMOVE THE ROAD SALT THAT CAUSED THIS PROBLEM. I GUESS FORD AND DODGE OWNERS CRAWL UNDER THEIR TRUCKS IN THE WINTER AND DO THIS AS THERE WAS NO INVESTIGATION ON THEM. BY THE WAY I LIVE IN TN WHERE WINTERS AREN'T THAT BAD. AND ONE OTHER THING WHAT MARKETING BUZZ SAW DECIDED IT WOULD BE BETTER NOT TO HAVE A SPLIT BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR SO AT LEAST I WOULD HAVE 1/2 OF MY SYSTEM, HAD NO BRAKES FRONT OR REAR BECAUSE OF THIS.
