1999 GMC GMC TRUCK

TL*- THE CONTACT RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL ON HIS 1999 GMS CIERRA PICKUP TRUCK. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE WHEEL BEARING HUB AND SPEED SENSOR BECAUSE HE WAS TOLD THEY WERE A UNIT AND THAT WAS THE FAILURE IN HIS VEHICLE. HE LATER FOUND THAT THE WHEEL BEARING HUB THAT HE HAS PAID FOR WAS THE PROBLEM, AND WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED.

1999 GMC TRUCK ABS LOST AT LOW SPEEDS I SAW THIS PROBLEM ON THE NEWS. AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT I HAVE TO DO TO CORRECT IT, SO I COULD TELL MY MECHANIC. IS THIS GOING TO BE A RECALL ITEM, LIKE IT WAS IN CANADA? IF YOU COULD E-MAIL BACK AND LET ME KNOW. THANK YOU DAVID RICHARDS

THREE PROBLEMS - INCIDENT DATE NOT EXACT FOR ALL PROBLEMS.1) HAD VEHICLE ACCELERATE IN NEARLY WIDE-OPEN THROTTLE POSITION WHILE BRAKING AT A STOPLIGHT IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. AVOIDED ACCIDENT BY SHIFTING TRUCK INTO REVERSE AND FORWARD SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO TURN OFF ENGINE. HAD TRUCK TOWED TO DEALERSHIP WHERE THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED. SINCE THAT TIME I HAVE HAD THROTTLE STICK CLOSED. I CONTACTED DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD CARBON DEPOSIT WAS CAUSING PROBLEM AND THEY WOULD CLEAN FOR $100.00. I PULLED HOSE FROM BODY AND CLEANED WITH CARBURETOR CLEANER, WHICH SOLVED PROBLEM FOR PRESENT. SHOULD GMC FIX THIS PROBLEM? 2) PARKING BRAKE WORE PREMATURELY. DEALER WANTS $300.00 TO REPLACE. I FEEL THIS IS A PROBLEM EXPERIENCED BY MANY OWNERS AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY GMC. 3) HAVE LOUD ENGINE CLACKING NOISE EVERY TIME VEHICLE IS STARTED AFTER SITTING OVER ONE HOUR. DEALERSHIP INFORMED THAT ENGINE OIL PASSAGES WERE NOT DRILLED LARGE ENOUGH AND THAT NO FIX AVAILABLE FO

WHEN DRIVING LESS THAN 200 MILES LEFT WINDOW REGULATOR WENT OUT CAUSING THE LEFT WINDOW TO NOT COME UP. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. TS

THE REASON I AM REPORTING THIS FAILURE IS THE FACT THAT I KNOW OF TWO OTHER INDIVIDUALS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITHIN THE SAME MILEAGE IN A GM TRUCK. WHEN ORDERING THE ABS MOTOR MY MECHANIC WAS TOLD THAT THESE MOTORS ARE SENT OUT AS SOON AS THEY HIT THE SHELF. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS PART. THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND I HOPE THIS IS THE RIGHT FORUM FOR MY COMPLAINT. NOT JUST BEING A SAFETY HAZARD IT IS SOMETHING THAT I FEEL I WILL BE CHANGING AGAIN IN 30000 MILES AS THEY HAVEN'T CHANGED THE BUILDING OF THE MOTOR.*AK

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS ARE TOO BRIGHT AND ADJUSTED TO HIGH, CAUSING EXCESSIVE GLARE AND ANNOYANCE TO OTHER DRIVERS.*AK

CONSUMER BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE ABS PROBLEMS, BOTH REAR WHEELS WOULD LOCK UP AND SKID AT SLOW SPEEDS, THE TRUCK WOULD PULL TO THE RIGHT DURING HEAVY BRAKING AND CONSUMER COULD NEVER DETERMINE WHEN THE BRAKES WOULD ENGAGE, REPAIRES WERE MADE BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. NLM

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 70 MPH LEFT REAR TIRE HAD A BLOWOUT. CONSUMER KEPT CONTROL OF VEHICLE, AVOIDING AN ACCIDENT. THEN, TOOK VEHICLE TO A FIRESTONE DEALER,WHERE DID NOT OFFER MUCH. CHEVROLET, 2500, 1999, R245/75R16. *AK *SLC
