WHEN ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR, CAUSING ME TO SWERVE INTO THE OTHER LANE. NO WARNING LIGHTS, NO SOFT PEDAL..........NOTHING. HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. ALL THE BRAKE LINES WERE SEVERELY RUSTED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF NINE HUNDRED EIGHTY DOLLARS. THE SHOP OWNER STATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CHEVROLET TRUCKS FROM 1999 TO 2004 AND THAT HE AVERAGES ABOUT ONE A WEEK. THE NEW LINES WERE MADE OF STAINLESS STEEL, NOT THE INFERIOR GRADE METAL LINES THAT CHEVROLET INSTALLED ON THE TRUCK WHEN MANUFACTURED. ALTHOUGH I HAVE ALWAYS OWNED CHEVROLET TRUCKS IN THE PAST, I AM OUTRAGED THAT GM WOULD PUT PROFITS ABOVE PUBLIC SAFETY A

DT: THE CONTACT STATED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS STICKING. THE ACCELERATOR WOULD HAVE TO BE PUSHED HARD TO RELEASE. THE VEHICLE WOULD SPEED UP WHILE THE ACCELERATOR WAS STUCK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY PERFORMED TWO UPGRADES TO THE VEHICLE. THERE HAVE BEEN NO PROBLEMS SINCE THE REPAIRS. *AK UPDATED 1/4/2006 - *NM

I AM BEING TOLD BY BOTH THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED MY TRUCK AND AN INDEPENDENT GARAGE I TRUST, THAT I NEED TO REPLACE MY BRAKE ROTORS AS THEY ARE RUSTED AND PITTED TO THE POINT OF NOT FUNCTIONING AS DESIGNED AND COULD EVENTUALLY BE DANGEROUS AS THEY DETERIORATE. THE DEALER IS NOT SAYING THAT BUT IS RECOMMENDING REPLACEMENT AS MY RESPONSIBILITY EVEN THOUGH THIS TRUCK IS A 2000 WITH ONLY 40,546 MILES. THE INDEPENDENT HAS TOLD ME THAT HE HAS SEEN A NUMBER OF GM TRUCKS OF THIS AGE WITH SERIOUSLY PITTED ROTORS AS THE METAL ALLOWS RUST PITTING TO EAT THROUGH THE METAL THIS COULD BECOME A SERIOUS HAZARD AND SEEMS TO BE AN ISOLATED PROBLEM TO THIS MODEL ( SILVERADO) AND 2000 AT LEAST AND PERHAPS O

I CAN NOT STOP AS THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SENSORS ARE MALFUCTIONING. THE CHEVROLET DEALER SAYS IT'S FROM TOO MUCH SALT ON THE ROADS CAUSING EXCESSIVE RUST WHICH IN TURN CAUSES THE SENSORS TO MALFUNCTION. THE VEHICLE IS UNFIT TO DRIVE AS IS. MAYBE A LAWSUIT IS WHAT THEY NEED TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. I BROUGHT IT TO MY LOCAL GARAGE. THEIR COMPUTER READ THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED ALL FOUR ABS SENSORS READ 3 MPH? THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR ANYONE DRIVING SUCH A VEHICLE. I HAVE ALMOST HIT MANY PEOPLE IN PARKING LOTS AND VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME AT INTESECTIONS WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AT LOW SPEED. SOMETHING NEED TO BE DONE!
