BRAKE LINES HAVE RUSTED THROUGH AND CAUSED AN EXTREMELY UNSAFE SITUATION. WHILE ON A FAMILY VACATION TO THE OUTER BANKS THE BRAKES FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. WE WERE ABLE TO FIND A REPAIR SHOP TO LOOK OVER THE BRAKE SYSTEM AFTER REFILLING THE MASTER CYLINDER WITH BRAKE FLUID. THE REPAIR SHOP FOUND NO ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES AND SAID SOMEONE PROBABLY FORGOT TO BLEED THE BRAKES AFTER SERVICING THEM. SINCE IT WAS A RECENTLY PURCHASED VEHICLE AND WE DIDN'T KNOW THE HISTORY OF WORK PERFORMED WE THOUGHT THIS WAS POSSIBLY THE ISSUE. AFTER DRIVING ANOTHER 50 MILES OR SO THE BRAKES FAILED AGAIN FOR THE SECOND TIME. THIS TIME MY FAMILY AND I WERE ON THE WAY TO THE STATE FAIR. I CRAWLED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND FOUND ONE LINE TO BE COMPLETELY RUPTURED AND ALL OTHERS TO BE SEVERELY RUSTED. I NOW PLAN TO REPLACE ALL BRAKE LINES BEFORE THE VEHICLE IS USED AGAIN. I OWN MUCH OLDER VEHICLES WITH BRAKE LINES IN PERFECT SHAPE. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH I FOUND THAT CHEVROLET BRAKE LINES USED IN THIS MODEL AND YEAR HAVE HAD ABNORMALLY HIGH BRAKE LINE CORROSION AND FAILURE COMPARED TO OTHER VEHICLES MANUFACTURED DURING THE SAME TIME PERIOD. I AM WONDERING WHY THIS ISSUE HASN'T BEEN BROUGHT TO THE PUBLICS ATTENTION AND WHY NO RECALL? THE BRAKE LINES WERE OBVIOUSLY MANUFACTURED WITH INFERIOR MATERIALS OR WORKMANSHIP OR BOTH. THANKS

THIS VEHICLE WAS LEAKING OIL FROM THE ENGINE, FRONT AND BACK BRAKES WERE FAULTY, THE STARTER WAS GOING BAD, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FOR THE BACK WINDOWS WERE NOT IN WORKING CONDITION. THE VEHICLE WOULD DISPLAY SENSOR LIGHTS TO HAVE THE VEHICLE ENGINE CHECKED BUT THEN AFTER ABOUT 2 DAYS IT WOULD NOT SHOW A DISPLAYING MESSAGE IT WOULD ALSO EFFECT THE AUDIO FUSE THAT ALLOWS THE AUDIO SYSTEM TO FUNCTION. THE TIRES WERE BALD ON THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE AND LEFT BACK PASSENGER SIDE. THE SEAT BELTS WERE DIFFICULT TO ENTER INTO LATCH IN ORDER TO SECURE SEATBELT.

THE BRAKES ON MY TRUCK ARE ENGAGING THE ABS AT LOW SPEED STOPS. THIS IS CAUSING A LOSS OF BREAKING AT THE CRITICAL LAST FEW FEET OF STOPPING. THIS PROBLEM IS OCCURRING ON SMOOTH DRY PAVEMENT. YOUR 2008 ACTION NUMBER PE05020 WAS A RECALL SPECIFIC TO MY PROBLEM. CHECKING FOR A RECALL ON MY TRUCK SHOWED NO SPECIFIC RECALL FOR MY VIN. BOTH MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THE GM REPRESENTATIVE AT 800-222-1020 TELL ME THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR ANY REPAIRS OUT OF MY OWN POCKET BECAUSE THERE IS NO "RECALL" ON MY VEHICLE. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY EVERY TIME WE DRIVE THE VEHICLE. IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM FIXED?

BUNCH OF GARBAGE - I'VE BEEN A CHEVY GUY FOR EVER AND WORKED AT A CHEVY DEALERSHIP - THIS CAUSES ME TO LOOSE SOME FAITH. DEALERSHIPS HAVE THE ABILITY TO HELP BUT THERE HANDS ARE TIED BY GM. SAD!!

MY TRUCK IS HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS NOTED IN RECALL #05068, NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 05V379000, BUT THEY STATE MY VIN NUMBER IS EXCLUDED FROM THE RECALL. THIS CAR WAS OPERATED IN MICHIGAN. AT LOW SPEED, COMING UP TO AN INTERSECTION UNDER 5 MPH, FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABS KICKS ON AND LURCHES THE CAR FORWARD. I READ THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE WHEEL SPEED SENSORS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING AND GETTING WORSE FOR THE PAST YEAR. *TR

DURING THE PAST SEVEN YEARS, AT RANDOM INTERVALS RANGING FROM DAYS, MONTHS AND YEARS, MY TAHOE WILL NOT START. I HAVE HAD IT CHECKED BY A CHEVROLET DEALER AND AN INDEPENDENT AUTOMOTIVE SHOP. THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I STOP THE VEHICLE TO GET GAS, PARK IT TO GO SHOPPING OR TO A DOCTOR'S OFFICE. I NEVER KNOW IF IT IS GOING TO START OR NOT. I FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF MY WIFE AND SON WHEN THEY ARE OPERATING THE TAHOE IN CASE THIS HAPPENS TO THEM. AT FIRST, I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST MY VEHICLE. BUT, RESEARCHING THE INTERNET TODAY, I FIND THAT COUNTLESS OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH A VARIETY OF GM AND GMC VEHICLES -- PRIMARILY SUVS AND PICKUP TRUCKS. THERE ARE EVEN VIDEOS BY DRIVERS WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AS I HAVE EXPERIENCED: THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. AFTER WAITING ANYWHERE FROM 10 MINUTES TO OVER AN HOUR AND CONTINUOUSLY TRYING, THE VEHICLES WILL START LIKE NOTHING WAS WRONG. I'VE HAD AAA MECHANICS WHOM I'VE CALLED TO TOW MY TAHOE WITNESS THIS MALADY. I FIRMLY BELIEVE GM/GMC SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL AND REPAIR THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMETHING TRAGIC HAPPENS TO SOMEONE WHO CANNOT START THEIR VEHICLE WHEN THEY ARE IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION SUCH AS AT NIGHT OR IN AN INTERSECTION.

THE ABS KEEPS ENGAGING DURING LOW SPEED STOPPING AND PARKING MANEUVERS, DRY CONDITIONS. THIS IS INCREASING BRAKING DISTANCE WHEN APPROACHING SLOWING TRAFFIC AND IS VERY ALARMING. WE NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I CALLED A LOCAL DEALER, AND THEY SAID THAT "RECALL WORK" HAD BEEN PERFORMED FOR THIS ISSUE IN 2005, AND I WAS ON MY OWN FOR THE REPAIR. I THINK THIS IS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW AND GM SHOULD COVER THE REPAIR INDEFINITELY UNLESS A DESIGN IMPROVEMENT WAS CREATED. A CAR SHOULD STOP WHEN YOU NEED IT TOO, NOT CONTINUE ON ITS COURSE AND SPEED IGNORING MY INPUT. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THEY REPLACED PARTS OF A BAD DESIGN WITH PARTS OF THE SAME DESIGN THEN THERE WAS NO DESIGN IMPROVEMENT TO PREVENT A RECURRENCE WHEN THE "RECALL WORK" WAS PERFORMED. I THINK THIS IS A MAJOR FLAW IN THE RECALL PROCESS. WHAT RECOURSE TO I HAVE NOW? I KNOW SEVERAL OWNERS OF MID-2000'S CHEVY TRUCKS WITH THIS ISSUE, AND IT KEEPS COMING BACK IF YOU OWN THE TRUCK LONG ENOUGH. WHAT IS BEING DONE? I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO KEEP PAYING FOR REPAIRS.

PURCHASED THE TRUCK BRAND NEW IN 2002 AND HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT HELL FROM IT. WE'VE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES, SEVERAL BREAKDOWNS AND STRANDED MOMENTS ON THE HIGHWAY DUE TO SOMETHING MALFUNCTIONED IN THE FUEL SYSTEM THAT EVEN CHEVY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT. IT'S BEEN UNRELIABLE AND GIVEN US HELL THE ENTIRE TIME WE'VE OWNED IT. WE'VE DUMPED THOUSANDS $$ INTO REPAIRS IN THE LAST 15 YEARS. MOST RECENTLY A NEW TRANSMISSION AFTER IT WENT OUT ON US TOWING A SMALL TRAILER WITH A TOW PACKAGE THAT COULDN'T TOW. WE'VE DUMPED ENOUGH MONEY INTO THIS TRUCK TO HAVE PURCHASED ANOTHER TRUCK BRAND NEW. ON 3/28/16 THE TRUCK SPONTANIOUSLY CAUGHT FIRE AND BURNED DOWN WHILE UNOCCUPIED AND PARKED IN OUR DRIVEWAY. TO ADD TO THE HARDSHIP WE HAD JUST REDUCED THE INSURANCE TO LIABILITY AFTER CARRYING FULL COVERAGE FOR THE PAST 15 YRS. THE TRUCK IS A TOTAL LOSS AND NOW WE ARE WITHOUT TRANSPORTATION!! WHAT HAPPENED CHEVY?
