What owners report
ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON PERIODACALLY
WHEN PULLING INTO GARAGE I APPLIED BRAKES AND PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR, GOT OUT TO INSPECT, FOUND LARGE PUDDLE OF FLUID JUST BEHIND FRONT LEFT WHEEL. DROVE INTO GARAGE TO INSPECT CAUSE FOUND FLUID LEAKING FROM ONE OF SEVERAL BRAKE LINES RUNNING ABOVE FRONT LEFT CAB MOUNTING BRACKET ,FLUID DRIPPING FROM ONE OF TWO SELF TAPPING SCREWS INSTALLED FROM TOP INTO BRACKET ,I BELIEVE BRAKE LINE RUPTURED FROM CHAFFING. *TR
BRAKE LINE RUSTED OUT LOST BRAKES PULLING INTO PARKING LOT ALSO FOUND FUEL LINE LEAK UNDER TRUCK. *TR
WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25MPH, BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOORBOARD. UPON INSPECTION, THE SOLID BRAKE LINE FROM THE REAR AXLE TO THE FRONT WAS COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH AND BRAKE FLUID LEAKING OUT. *TR
WITH NO WARNING THE BRAKE LINES FAILED - AND THE TRUCK HIT A TREE, GOOD NEWS WAS THAT I WAS IN THE DRIVEWAY. THE ENTIRE FRAME IS ROTTED AND MY MECHANIC HAS ADVISED ME NOT TO DRIVE THE TRUCK ANY MORE. IT CURRENTLY HAS 80,000 MILES AND THE BODY AND INTERIOR ARE PERFECT - I EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN THIS TRUCK AND KEEP IT FORE MANY MORE YEARS, BOUGHT IT IN 03 WITH APROX 35,000 ON IT. IT IS UNSAFE IN MY OPINION - THIS SHOULDN'T HAPPEN WITH 80K MILEAGE - I HAVE REPLACED FUEL LINE, GAS FILL HOSE, BRAKE LINES, REAR BUMPER AND MUCH MUCH MORE. IS THERE ANY RECOURSE WITH CHEVROLET FOR US POOR OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES? *TR
