SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
PURCHASED 2000 GMC SIERRA 1500 NEW. HAVE DURING TIME OF OWNERSHIP HAD BOTH FRONT AND REAR DISC BRAKES/ROTORS REPAIRED/REPLACED TWICE. ONCE WITH 20,151 MILES UNDER WARRANTY. THE LAST SET OF FRONT ROTORS AND PADS WERE REPLACED WITH 74,299 MILES DURING THE RECALL 05068 FOR ABS SPEED SENSOR CORROSION. I HAD TO PAY FOR THIS SET OF ROTORS AND PADS AT A COST OF $406.03. SINCE TIME OF "SAFETY RECALL" TRUCK HAS INTERMITTENTLY NOT STOPPED PROPERLY AT LOW SPEED. WHILE DRIVING I ATTEMPTED TO STOP HEARD A SLIGHT POP AND THE BRAKE PEDDLE WENT TO THE FLOOR WITH LITTLE RESISTANCE. HAD TRUCK TAKEN TO DEALER SHIP WHERE LAST BRAKE REPAIR AND SAFETY RECALL WAS PERFORMED, THEY DISCOVERED THAT MY MAIN BRAKE LINE HAD RUSTED THROUGH AND HAD FAILED. AT THAT TIME THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT ALL THE BRAKE LINES WERE RUSTY AND SHOULD BE REPLACED. I HAD AT THE TIME OF DROPPING THE VEHICLE OFF INFORMED THEM OF THE PROBLEM WITH LOW SPEED BRAKING AND THE FEELING THAT THE ABS WAS ACTIVATING. UPON REPAIR OF THE MAIN BRAKE LINE AT $244.32 (I DECLINED TO HAVE ALL BRAKE LINES REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE) THEY TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND INDICATED THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO EXPERIENCE THE LOW SPEED BRAKE FAILURE. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT A VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 90,000 MILES SHOULD HAVE BRAKE LINES RUST THROUGH, THAT TWO SETS OF ROTORS RUST TO THE POINT OF FAILURE. THIS DEGREE OF RUST TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM APPEARS EXCESSIVE AND UNWARRANTED. IN LOOKING AT INTERNET APPEARS TO BE SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH 2000 GMC AND CHEVY PICKUPS. WIFE WILL NOT RIDE IN THE TRUCK AS SHE FEELS IT IS UNSAFE SINCE CAN'T ALWAYS STOP TRUCK! *TR
