| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Disc rotor delamination, anti-lock control. i was pulling a 3/4 ton van stuck in his yard, as i got him close to the hard surface ( driveway) i put on the brakes and the truck wouldn't stop, it hit the corner of his block house. no damage to the house however i had to replace all but hood and one headlight assy. 10 mph and neither bag deployed. i thought it was my own stupidity until reading all the issues on here w/ gm's braking problems. i feel a bit better about myself. the big issue !! all four rotors delaminated w/ 46,000 miles this is the 1st new truck i've owned and believe me it's been babied for sure. i was told by my service dealer there was nothing gm would do about this problem it was my problem for not driving it as much as i should (b.s.) dealer wanted to charge me a grand to replace all the rotors and pads i did it for 500.00 and still have the old parts. i'm sure gm should issue a recall on this, it is a definite safety issue did i fail to mention the muffler had a rattle in it and was replaced within the 1st 1000 miles, the thump in the steering column that has no way to be lubricated. man i am disappointed in gm products. *jb |
