SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:CALIPER
ALTHOUGH I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT, THE BRAKES ON MY 2004 SILVERADO K1500 ARE DANGEROUS. THE PEDAL IS VERY SOFT AND WHEN PULLING A 4000# TRAVEL TRAILER I HAVE SERIOUS PROBLEMS STOPPING SAFELY. I HAVE HAD TO TAKE THE SHOULDER ON ONE OCCASION TO AVOID HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE. EVEN WHEN EMPTY, IT TAKES AN EXCESSIVE DISTANCE TO SAFELY STOP. MY DEALER HAS TOLD ME THE BRAKES ARE WITHIN GM SPECIFICATIONS, BUT HAS ALSO TOLD ME WHAT I CAN DO TO IMPROVE THEM. AT MY COST OF COURSE. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
THIS IS A DEALER DEMO VEHICLE, FIRST 2235 MILES WERE DEMO. DURING MY FIRST MORNING (12HOURS AFTER PICKING UP AT DEALER) OF OWNERSHIP I WAS DESCENDING DOWN A HILL WITH THE CRUISE ON, AND THE VEHICLE PROCEEDED TO OVER SPEED APPROXIMATELY 5-7MPH. I TRAVEL THIS HILL BOTH WAYS TO/FROM WORK DAILY AND THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME. I THOUGH THIS MIGHT BE AN ABNORMAL ADJUSTMENT WITHIN THE COMPUTER/ETC SO WHILE TAKING IN TO THE DEALER FOR A TPMS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM) ISSUE I MENTIONED THE OVERSPEED ISSUE TO THE SERVICE WRITE UP AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS NORMAL. I DON'T AGREE, BUT MAYBE IT IS. IT DOES ADJUST BACK TO NORMAL CRUISE SET SPEED BUT IS UNIQUE. I HAD A 2002 DODGE RAM 1500 PREVIOUSLY AND IT DID NOT DO THIS, AND I HAVE DROVE OTR (OVER THE ROAD) SEMI-TRUCKS AND KNOW THE DIFFERENCE WITH OVERSPEED BEING NORMAL AND ABNORMAL. I WOULD LIKE THIS TO BE LOOKED INTO, AS IT COULD BE A HAZARD THAT COULD LEAD TO UNSAFE SITUATION. *TR
