DRIVING NORTH ON GARDERSTATE PARKWAY THE BRAKE LIGHT OF MY 2000 CHEVY SILVERADO CAME ON. I EXITED PARKWAY AT NORTHFIELD EXIT AND I APPLIED MY BRAKES. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT SOFT AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AT THE END OF THE EXIT RAMP. THE LIGHT AT TILTON ROAD TURNED RED I APPLIED BRAKES THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. THERE IS A SUNOCO STATION ON THE CORNER WHICH I COASTED INTO. I CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD FLUID LEVEL WAS BELOW THE MIN. LINE. I ADDED FLUID INTO THE RESERVOIR. I GOT BACK INTO THE TRUCK AND APPLIED MY BRAKES. PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AGAIN. I LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK AND NOTICED THERE WAS BRAKE FLUID RUNNING ONTO THE GROUND. NOTICED A PEP BOYS STORE ABOUT 1/2 OF A BLOCK DOWN THE ROAD. I WAITED TILL THERE WAS NO CARS COMING AND PROCEEDED OUT ONTO TILTON ROAD TOWARD PEP BOYS. DOWN SHIFTED AND APPLIED BRAKE PEDAL AS I APPROACHED STORE. THEY CHECKED THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND INDICATED THAT A BRAKE LINE WAS LEAKING FLUID. MONDAY THEY REPAIRED THE TRUCK BY REPLACING ABOUT A FIVE (5) FOOT SECTION OF BRAKE LINE AT THE TUNE OF $262.52 WOW. I DO HAVE THE OLD SECTION OF BRAKE LINE THAT WAS REMOVED. THE OLD SECTION OF BRAKE LINE IS SO HEAVILY RUSTED THE SHOP INDICATED IT WAS VERY UNUSUAL. WHEN I GOT HOME I LOOKED AT THE REPAIR AND THE REST OF THE LINE STILL IN THE TRUCK AND I AM WORRIED ABOUT CONDITION OF BRAKE LINES AND THE EXCESSIVE RUST THAT EXIST. I'M WORRIED THAT THERE MAY BE ANOTHER LEAK,RESULT MIGHT BE THAT WE ARE NOT AS LUCKY THE NEXT TIME. THE PARKWAY IS A 65 MPH ROAD AND IF I WOULD HAVE HAD TO STOP VERY FAST DOING THAT SPEED I TRULY BELIEVE I WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP WITHOUT INJURIES. I HAVE ALWAYS OWNED CHEVY'S AND I KEPT THEM FOR GENERALLY 9 TO 10 YEARS AND I HAVE NEVER HAD A BRAKE LINE RUST OUT AS DID MY 2000 CHEVY TRUCK. I HOPE THAT THIS MATTER CAN BE INVESTIGATED.

THE ABS FAILED IN MY TRUCK, CAUSING ME TO HIT A TRAILER PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. WHILE GM HAS ALREADY "REPAIRED" THIS UNDER A PREVIOUS RECALL, THEIR "REPAIR" OBVIOUSLY DOESN'T WORK. THEY WERE UNRESPONSIVE ABOUT MY COMPLAINT, SINCE MY TRUCK HAD ALREADY BEEN "REPAIRED". IF SOMEONE WOULD HAVE BEEN WALKING IN FRONT OF MY TRUCK WHEN THE BRAKES FAILED, I WOULD HAVE KILLED THEM. IT IS ONE THING TO HAVE THE RADIO QUIT WORKING, IT IS AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT THING TO HAVE THE BRAKES TOTALLY FAIL. GM NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BESIDES CLEANING A COUPLE SENSORS. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS, NO INDICATION WHATSOEVER OF THE IMPENDING FAILURE. I BACKED UP AND THE BRAKES WORKED FINE. THERE ARE STILL NO WARNING LIGHTS. I SPOKE WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND THEIR ANSWER WAS "THERE ISN'T ANYTHING WE CAN TEST FOR THIS INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. WE CAN TRY TO GET IT TO FAIL AND GO FROM THERE".

AS I STARTED TO PULL AWAY AT AROUND 4 TO 5 MPH THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME STARTED TO SLOW BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC. WHEN I HIT THE BRAKE THE ABS MOTOR STARTED TO PULSATE SO FAST THE TRUCK WOULDN'T STOP AND I NEVER TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL. I THEN MOVED THE SHIFT LEVER TO PARK AND IT STILL WOULDN'T STOP. I THEN HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND THEN I FINALLY STOPPED. THE DRIVER IN FRONT OF ME LUCKILY HAD NO DAMAGE TO HIS CAR SINCE I WAS ONLY DRIVING A FEW MPH. I CONTINUED TO WORK. THE ABS LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. AS I LEFT WORK TO GO TO LUNCH,SAME DAY, I WAS PULLING UP TO A LIGHT AT A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION . I SLOWED WAY AHEAD OF TIME AND CRAWLED TO THE LIGHT AND JUST AS I HIT THE BRAKE TO STOP THE SAME THING HAPPENED WHERE THE ABS MOTOR RAN CONTINUOUSLY AND I COULDN'T STOP THE VEHICLE . I THREW THE TRUCK IN PARK AND IT STILL WOULDN'T STOP AND WAS STARTING TO ENTER THE INTERSECTION ON A RED LIGHT. I THEN STEPPED ON THE PARKING BRAKE AND IT FINALLY STOPPED. I WAS ALMOST KILLED BECAUSE A SEMI JUST STARTED TO PASS ME AND HE WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 50 MPH. I THEN TURNED THE TRUCK AROUND AND WENT DOWN THE ROAD TO MY WORK. AS I WAS PARKING THE TRUCK AT MY WORK IT HAPPENED AGAIN,3RD TIME. THE TRUCK IS NOW OUT OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND I CAN'T SEE PAYING 1,500 TO 2,000 DOLLARS TO FIX THIS WHEN IT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM OR SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE KILLED, IF THAT HASN'T ALREADY HAPPENED. I WILL NEVER FEEL SAFE DRIVING A CHEVY/GM VEHICLE AGAIN AND WILL TELL EVERYONE I KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. JUST SO IT'S UNDERSTOOD I'M A VERY SAFE DRIVER AND HAVE AN EXCELLENT DRIVING RECORD. *NM.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 83780 miles.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 car safety problem was reported on Oct 21, 2007.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK:WHEEL SPEED SENSOR . I OWN A 2000 CHEVEROLET SILVERADO 1500 4WD PICKUP. IT IS AN EXTENDED CAB SHORTBED, WITH THE 5.3L ENGINE AND AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THE ABS BRAKES ENGAGE WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AT SLOW SPEEDS. THE TRUCK THEN CONTINUES TO MOVE AND IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STOP. WHEN THE ABS ENGAGES IT IS ALWAYS AT LOW SPEEDS (LESS THAN 10MPH) AND DOES SO REGARDLESS OF DRIVING CONDITIONS AND ROAD SURFACE CONDITIONS. THE STOPPING DISTANCE IS DANGEROUSLY INCREASED. I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT YET, BUT COME VERY CLOSE. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND LEARNED THAT IT IS VERY COMMON. GM ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN IN THE US,TSB#03-05-25-007A) AND A RECALL IN CANADA FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS DUE TO DEBRI AND OR RUST ON THE FRONT WHEEL SPEED SENSORS. I PLAN TO UNPLUG MY ABS FUSE UNTIL I AM ABLE TO PERFORM THE PROCEDURE LISTED IN THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. I FIND IT VERY NEGLIGENT OF GM TO NOT NOTIFY OWNERS OF MODELS AFFECTED BY THIS PROBLEM AND NOT ENCOURAGE THEIR DEALER NETWORK TO NOTIFY OWNERS OF VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THIS PROBLEM. FAILING TO STOP IN TIME, EVEN AT LOW SPEEDS, CAN EASILY CAUSE PROPERTY AND VEHICLE DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY AND DEATH. THANK YOU, SCOTT BEAN *TR .Mileage was 117000 miles.

SIRS, I CONTACTED YOU A FEW YRS. AGO [BELIVE IN EITHER 03 OR 04] IN REGARD TO THE ROTORS ON MY 2000 CHEVY SILVERADO 1500 TRUCK FAILING. AT THAT TIME THE TRUCK HAD APPRXIMATELY 45K MIILES ON IT. WHEN I CONTACTED CHEVY ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, THEY TOLD ME IT IS AN ENVIROMENTAL HAZZARD, DUE TO WHERE I LIVE. I REPLIED THAT I HAD NEW TIRES PUT ON THE TRUCK IN MAY {?} OF THAT YEAR & THE ROTORS WERE FINE BUT WHEN I TOOK TRUCK FOR INSPECTION IN NOV. THEY WERE NOT. I ASKED HOW MUCH SALT THEY THOUGHT PA. USED DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS? I RECIEVED NO REPLY. NOW HERE WE ARE IN JAN., 2008. MY TRUCK NOW HAS 60 K MILES ON IT & THE ROTORS NEED REPLACED AGAIN?? CONSIDERING THIS TRUCK IS DRIVEN AN AVERAGE OF 7K MILES PER YEAR, WITH 90% OF THAT BEING DURING SUMMER MONTHES, THIS IS NOT AN ENVIROMENTAL PROBLEM! THIS TRUCK IS ONLY DRIVEN DURING WINTER MONTHES IF THERE IS AN EMERGANCY SO IT IS EXTREMELY RARE THIS TRUCK IS DRIVEN ON SALTED ROADS. THIS TRUCK IS ALSO GARAGED AT ALL TIMES, I WAX THE FIREWALLS, ARMOR ALL & CLEAN THE TRUCK WEEKLY. ALSO OUR DRIVEWAY IS ALONG A RURAL ROAD & THE DRIVEWAY IS HIGHER THAN THE ROAD SURFACE. I HAVE GONE THROUGH YOUR COMPLAINT LIST & I HAVE FOUND I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS PROBLEM, IN RE:ODI ID #10158646. I HONESTLY BELIEVE THE ONLY REASON YOU HAVE NOT RECIEVED MORE COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE IS DUE TO TOO MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE WHAT THE CHEVY REPS. ARE SAYING ABOUT ENVIROMENTAL HAZZARD.I HAVE HAD CHEVY EMPLOYEES TELL ME BRAND NEW CARS, JUST OFF THE DELIVERY TRUCK ARE ALSO HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM & THE DEALERSHIPS ARE REPLACING THE ROTORS BEFORE THE CARS ARE EVEN PUT ON THE LOT!! SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THE QUALITY OF THESE ROTORS & I REALLY DO WISH YOU WOULD INVESTIGATE FURTHER BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT/KILLED. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ANY/ALL HELP ON THIS MATTER.

I HAVE A 2000 CHEVY SILVERADO PICKUP WHICH I PURCHASED NEW AT 36,000 MILES I WAS FORCED TO REPLACE ALL FOUR ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS DUE TO EXCESSIVE RUSTING ON THE INSIDE SURFACES OF THE ROTORS ESPECIALLY THE REAR. LATELY I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE REAR BRAKES HANGING UP OR DRAGGING ON THE ROTORS SO I CHECKED THEM. I FOUND THE SAME PROBLEM ONLY WORSE. NOW BOTH DUST SHIELDS ON THE REAR ARE RUSTING AWAY,THE PASSENGER SIDE IS COMPLETELY GONE, AT 76,000 MILES. THIS CONDITION IS BOTH COSTLY AND DANGEROUS TO THE PUBLIC BECAUSE THE RUST BUILD UP IS SO BAD THAT THE BRAKE PAD WILL NOT MAKE THE REQUIRED CONTACT TO STOP THE VEHICLE. IT RIDES ON THE RUST NOT A CLEAN SMOOTH METAL SURFACE. I DRIVE THIS TRUCK DAILY SO YOU WOULD THINK THIS SHOULD NOT BE OCCURRING BUT IT IS. IF YOU WANT TO SEE MORE UNANSWERED COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM GO TO,HTTP://CONSUMERAFFAIRS.COM/AUTOMOTIVE/GM_SILVERADO_BRAKES.HTML. I USUALLY KEEP A VEHICLE ABOUT TEN YEARS ON AVERAGE AND HAVE NEVER DEALT WITH ANYTHING LIKE THIS. WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN AN INVESTIGATION OR RECALL ON THIS? GM ISN'T ADDRESSING THESE COMPLAINTS.

I WAS DRIVING ON A HEAVILY TRAVELED ROAD (IN TRAFFIC) , AS I APPROACHED A LINE OF TRAFFIC A STOPLIGHT WENT TO APPLY THE BRAKES AND NOTHING HAPPENED!! I THEN SHIFTED THE TRUCK INTO FIRST GEAR AND VEERED TOWARD THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. A GAS STATION WASN,T TOO FAR FROM THE INTERSECTION SO I DRIFTED INTO THERE. II LIFTED THE HOOD AND FOUND NO FLUID IN THE RESERVOIR, I THEN LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK AND DISCOVERED FLUID (BRAKE) ALL OVER THE LOT AND THE BACK DRIVER SIDE AXLE. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND HAD THE TRUCK TOWED. THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO SEE HIM AND HE SHOWED HOW BAD THE CORROSION WAS ON THE BRAKE LINES. EVERY BRAKE LINE ON THE TRUCK (FROM ABOUT SIX INCHES FROM THE MASTER CYLINDER) WAS ROTTED ALMOST COMPLETELY THROUGH!!! NEED LESS TO SAY, I HAVE TO REPLACE EVERY BRAKE LINE ON THE TRUCK, WHICH WILL BE A FORTUNE!!! DID I MENTION THE FUEL LINES? THEY TOO ARE ALSO ROTTED!! IT SEEMS THAT EVERYWHERE THAT THE STEEL LINES WERE USED, IT IS ROTTED I'LL PROBABLY HAVE TO REPLACE THE FUEL LINES ALSO IN THE NEAR FUTURE. GM SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR SELLING VEHICLES WITH THESE KIND OF PROBLEMS!!! *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 72268 miles.

FURTHERMORE, THE REPLACEMENTS AR ONLY WARRANTIED FOR 1 YEAR OR 12,000 MILES. HOW CONVENIENT HUH? THIS ISSUE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM AND NEEDS TOTAL RECALL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

THE BRAKES FAILED WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED HOME. UPON VISUAL INSPECTION, I FOUND THAT THE REAR STEEL BRAKE LINE HAD RUPTURED, DUE TO CORROSION (RUST). APPARENTLY, THESE ARE NOT STAINLESS STEEL LINES. THIS LINE IS LOCATED ALONG THE LEFT FRAME RAIL. ABOUT 2 INCHES BEFORE IT CONNECTS TO THE RUBBER BRAKE HOSE, A LARGE SECTION OF IT WAS RUSTED. A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH REVEALS THAT MANY SILVERADO OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME BAD EXPERIENCE. IF MY OTHER 3 VEHICLES HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, I WOULD THEN AGREE THAT IT WAS MOST LIKELY DUE TO ROAD SALT. HOWEVER, THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED THAT HAS HAD THIS HAPPEN TO IT. *TR.Mileage was 99500 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2GCEK19V1Y1.

ON DECEMBER 12, 2009, MY 2000 CHEVY SILVERADO WAS INVOLVED IN A TWO VEHICLE COLLISION AS A RESULT OF MY ABS SENSORS ACTIVATING AT LOW SPEEDS. I WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE WHICH IN NORMAL HARD BRAKING WOULD HAVE STOPPED WITH OUT PROBLEM. THERE WAS DAMAGE TO MY FRONT BUMPER AS WELL AS THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. APPARENTLY RECALL SERVICE WORK WAS PERFORMED ON NOVEMBER 11, 2005 TO FIX THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM THAT PLAQUES NEARLY 1.3 MILLION GM TRUCKS FROM 1999 TO 2002. THE ABS SENSORS BECOME CORRODED AND ACTIVATE AT LOW SPEEDS, GREATLY INCREASING THE STOPPING DISTANCE OF A LOW SPEED BREAKING SITUATION. THE RECALL MAY HAVE REPLACED THE SENSORS BUT IT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM AS I AM NOW A VICTIM OF THE SAME FAILING SENSORS NEARLY 4 YEARS LATER. I HAD NO WARNINGS THAT THE SENSORS WAS NOT OPERATING CORRECTLY AND UNTIL THE CRASH OCCURRED AND I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM, I HAD NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF THE CORROSION PROBLEMS WITH THE ABS SENSORS AND THE RECALL GM ISSUED AS A RESULT. I FEEL THAT THE ORIGINAL RECALL DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND GM SHOULD BE TELLING CONSUMERS ABOUT THIS ONGOING PROBLEM. *TR.Vehicle was involved in a crash. Mileage was 75000 miles.

WAS GOING TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED BECAUSE ITS TOO DANGEROUS TO KEEP DRIVING IT, NOW GOING TO SIT ON THE TRUCK TO AWAIT OUTCOME OF NHTSA INVESTIGATION. *TR.Mileage was 145000 miles.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 Safety Review #10326150

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 car safety problem was reported on Feb 16, 2010.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . AT A CHEVY DEALER FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND CHECK. WAS TOLD TRUCK WAS READY. IN ROUTE, THEY CALLED AND TOLD ME THERE WAS A LEAK IN BRAKE LINE AND THAT BRAKE LINES WERE RUSTED AND BRITTLE. I WAS TRAVELING AND HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO REPAIR BRAKE LINES. THEY REPLACED BRAKE LINES AND CONNECTORS FROM THE ABS UNIT BACK TO REAR WHEELS @ INCREDIBLE COST. WHEN I GOT HOME, I WENT TO TRUSTED DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE REST OF THE BRAKE LINES WERE ALSO RUSTED AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THEM TOO IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THE BRAKE LINE PUNCTURE HAPPENED WHEN IT WAS AT THE DEALER. THERE WAS NO LEAK BEFORE IT WENT IN FOR SERVICE. THEY REFUSED TO TELL ME HOW THE LEAK OCCURRED EXCEPT TO SAY THAT THE LINES WERE RUSTY. I JUST READ IN PAPER ABOUT A NHTSA INVESTIGATION INTO BRAKE FAILURE ON OLDER MODEL CHEVY TRUCKS. I LIVE IN NEW YORK. THE TRUCK IS WELL TAKEN CARE OF, REGULARLY SERVICED, AND HAD JUST ABOVE 80,00 MILES. THE DEALER TOLD ME I WAS LUCKY THE BRAKE LINES DID NOT RUPTURE WHEN I WAS DRIVING. THEY TOLD ME THE BRAKE LINE RUPTURE WAS BECAUSE OF CORROSION, AND THE DEALER BACK HOME TOLD ME THAT ALL THE OTHER BRAKE LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF CORROSION. I'VE ALREADY BEEN TAKEN TO THE CLEANERS. TO REPLACE ALL THE BRAKE LINES WILL PUT MY EXPENDITURES FAR OVER WHAT THE TRUCK IS WORTH. TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY, MY REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAD TO BE REPLACED ON MY TRIP. I WAS GIVEN NO REASON FOR WHY IT WENT (ANOTHER $2600). THE LAST THING THAT HAPPENED WAS A RUST-RELATED LEAK-OUT OF THE POWER STEERING FLUID. NEVER ANOTHER CHEVY. HORRIBLE TRUCK, HORRIBLE COMPANY. INCIDENTALLY, LONG-BED CHEVY TRUCKS APPARENTLY ALWAYS HAVE VIBRATION THAT THEY NEVER FIX, EVEN IF COMPLAINED ABOUT, APPARENTLY BECAUSE THEY CAN'T. AN OVERALL DEFECTIVE TRUCK, PERHAPS MORE APPROPRIATELY A DEFECTIVE MANUFACTURER. BELIEVE ME, IT DOES NO GOOD TO TRY TO WORK WITH THE COMPANY TO DEAL WITH ANY KIND OF PROBLEM, INCLUDING WARRANTY PROBLEMS. THEY WERE ALWAYS SO UNRESPONSIVE, YOU JUST GIVE UP. *TR.Mileage was 81151 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GCEK19T1YE. Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2000 problem was reported in NEDROW, NY.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 car safety problem was reported on June 24, 2011.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . I OWN A 2000 CHEVY 1500 TRUCK. ON JUNE 24, 2011, I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY, ON MY WAY TO WORK AND THE PEDDLE FOR THE BREAKS WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. NO BRAKES. LUCKILY I AM A POLICE OFFICER AND WAS TRAINED ON WHAT TO DO IN THIS SITUATION AND I FOUND IT PRIOR TO NEEDING THEM FOR AN ABRUPT STOP. UPON CLOSER INSPECTION, I FOUND THE BRAKE LINE TO THE REAR AXEL HAD RUSTED THROUGH UNDER THE CAB. I REMOVED THE BED OF THE TRUCK AND REPLACED THE LINE. I THEN EXAMINED THE OTHER BRAKE LINES AND FOUND ALL THE BRAKE LINES TO BE COMPLETELY RUSTED. THIS RUSTING IS PREMATURE FOR A 2000 YEAR VEHICLE. MY 2001 VOLKSWAGEN¿S BRAKE LINES STILL LOOK LIKE NEW AND IT HAS FIFTY THOUSAND MORE MILES. THIS PREMATURE RUSTING IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM. IF I NEEDED THE BRAKES FOR AN EMERGENCY STOP, OR DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO IN THE EVENT OF NO BRAKES, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUS PERSONAL OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. GM KNOWS THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE COMPONENTS ON THE TRUCKS THEY MADE. THEY JUST HAVE NOT HAD ANYONE MAKE THEM DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. YES I HAVE THE OLD LINES. *TT.Mileage was 114000 miles.

FRONT BRAKE LINE RUSTED THRU. TRUCK HAD TO TOWED TO REPAIR SHOP. 8 FEET OF BRAKE LINE WAS REPAIRED. WHILE THE MECHANIC WAS UNDER THE TRUCK HE SAID THIS WAS ONLY THE START, ALL THE BRAKE LINES HAVE VERY HEAVY RUST. UPON INSPECTION BY ME, I SAW EXACTLY WHAT THE MECHANIC WAS STATING. I WAS DOING A SIMPLE U TURN ON MY STREET WHEN THE BRAKES LET OUT. THERE WAS NO BRAKING AT ALL, THE PEDAL WAS TO THE FLOOR. IT WAS VERY LUCKY I WAS DOING LESS THAN 5 MPH. THE REPAIR AT THE SHOP COST ME $980.00. FOUR CALIPERS HAD TO BE REPLACED DUE TO HEAVY RUSTING. THIS TRUCK IS A MAINTAINED VEHICLE. YES I DO LIVE IN LONG ISLAND N.Y. WHERE THERE IS SNOW REMOVAL BUT I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS TYPE OF RUST ON ANY OF MY VEHICLES. I KEEP MANY OF MY VEHICLES FOR 15 YEARS DO TO THE LOW MILEAGE I PUT ON A VEHICLE. I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS MUCH RUST ON THEIR BRAKE LINES NOR HAVE I EVER HAD A BRAKE RUST THRU. IN ADDITION I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT IF THE FRONT BRAKES WERE LOST YOU WOULD HAVE THE REAR BRAKES WORKING TO STOP THE VEHICLE. NOT SO ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE HAS LOTS OF RUST ON ALL ITS BRAKE LINES. DRIVE SAFETY IS AN ISSUE THAT CERTAINLY SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. THE TRUCK IS UNSAFE AND A CORRECTION RECALL SHOULD BE INSTITUTED.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 car safety problem was reported on Nov 09, 2011.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with SUSPENSION . I'VE HAD TO REPLACE ALL MY BRAKE COMPONENTS SUCH AS, ROTORS, CALIPERS, BRAKE LINES, BACKING PLATES, ALSO THE REAR LEAF SPRING SHACKLES HAD TO BE REPLACED AND WELDED IN ALL DUE TO METAL CORROSION OR RUST. NOW MY LATEST PROBLEM IS THE REAR SHOCK MOUNTS HAVE BROKEN DUE TO RUST SO NOW MY SHOCKS ARE JUST DANGLING AROUND NOT DOING ANYTHING TO PREVENT ME FROM GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. BUT IT DOESN'T STOP THERE, THE REAR CROSSMEMBER THAT GOES FROM ONE END OF THE FRAME TO THE OTHER IS ALSO ROTTED THROUGH SO NOW I CAN'T EVEN REPAIR THE SHOCK MOUNTS BECAUSE THEY MOUNT TO THIS CROSSMEMBER WHICH IS NOW A PIECE OF ROTTED METAL! I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW FAST THIS TRUCK HAS ROTTED THROUGH, I HAVE A 1984 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX AND I HAVE NEVER HAD TO CHANGE OR REPLACE ANY OF THESE PARTS BECAUSE OF RUST. I HAVE READ THAT GM HAD USED CHEAPER METAL FROM CHINA ON THEIR MODEL TRUCKS FROM 1999-2004 AND DIDN'T STOP USING THEM UNTIL ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS STARTED TO SURFACE. WHY DOESN'T GM TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE USE OF SHODDY MATERIALS AND COMPENSATE ALL THE HARD WORKING PEOPLE WHO HAVE PURCHASED THEIR TRUCKS FOR THESE YEARS!!!!!! *TR.Mileage was 94642 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GCEK14V4YE. Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2000 problem was reported in NORTH ANDOVER, MA. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

THE BRAKE LINE RUNNING FROM ABS UNIT TO REAR OF TRUCK RUPTURED IN A PARKING LOT IN JULY OF 2010. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER, IN DECEMBER OF 2010, BOTH BRAKE LINES RUNNING FROM MASTER CYLINDER TO ABS UNIT RUPTURED WHEN BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. I NOTICED THE FRONT BRAKE LINES GOING FROM ABS UNIT TO EACH FRONT CALIPER WERE CORRODED IN EARLY MARCH 2012 AND REPLACED BEFORE THEY COULD RUPTURE. IT'S A GOOD THING I REPLACED THEM BECAUSE BARELY MOVING THE LINES RESULTED IN RUPTURES IN BOTH LINES BEFORE THEY COULD BE UNTHREADED TO BE REPLACED. THANKFULLY NONE OF THE RUPTURES RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR.Mileage was 184000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2GCEK19T7Y1.

APPLIED THE BRAKES AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND THE PEDAL HIT THE FLOOR. ON INSPECTION I COULD SEE FLUID LEAKING FROM THE BRAKE LINE. TOOK IT TO THE CHEVY DEALER WHO TELLS ME ALL OF THE BRAKE LINES NEED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO RUST, AS WELL AS THE ABS AND CALIPER. I HAD THE ABS SENSORS REPLACED 2-3 YEARS AGO DUE TO RUST, AT A SERVICE CENTER NOT AT THE DEALER, AND NOW THE REPLACEMENT ONES ARE BAD. SO I'M THINKING GM IS USING SUBSTANDARD PARTS AND REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE EVEN MORE SUBSTANDARD. THE ABS SENSORS WERE ALREADY UNDER RECALL, I HAVING NOT UNDERSTOOD HOW RECALLS WORKED TOOK THE TRUCK IN FOR THE REPAIRS AFTER RECEIVING NOTICE OF A RECALL, BEFORE EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS. SO WHEN I DID HAVE PROBLEMS THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE ALREADY EXHAUSTED; I INQUIRED WHAT THE DEALER DID WHEN I TOOK IT TO THEM FOR RECALL; THE DEALER TOLD ME THE CLEANED THE ABS SENSORS TO SATISFY THE RECALL ORDER. SO 2-3 YEARS AGO I HAD THEM REPLACED WHEN THEY DID RUST AND FAIL, NOW THEY ARE ACTING UP AGAIN AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. SO NOW THEY WANT $3,200 TO REPLACE BRAKE LINES, CALIPER AND ABS. *KB.Mileage was 70000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GCEK14T9YE.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 car safety problem was reported on Nov 13, 2010.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . THE BRAKE LINES ON MY TRUCK RUSTED OUT, CAUSING A LOSS OF VEHICLE BRAKING POWER. OF ALL THE VEHICLES THAT I'VE OWNED OVER THE YEARS, I HAVE NEVER HAD A BRAKE LINE RUST OUT! ON 11/13/2010, THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT LINE RUSTED THROUGH WHEN MY CHILDREN AND I WERE IN THE TRUCK. IN A RESTAURANT PARKING LOT, I NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT LOW, BUT THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO STILL HAVE BRAKING POWER. I DROVE ABOUT 3/4 OF A MILE TO A GAS STATION AND HAD ALMOST NO BRAKING POWER WHEN I GOT THERE. I LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK AND BRAKE FLUID WAS SPRAYING OUT! MY TRUCK WAS TOWED HOME AND THE NEXT DAY I SPLICED IN A REPLACEMENT BRAKE LINE, BUT NOTICED THAT THEY ALL SEEMED TO BE VERY RUSTY. IN AUGUST OF 2012 ANOTHER BRAKE LINE RUSTED THROUGH, THIS TIME WHILE THE TRUCK WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY. I HAD STARTED THE TRUCK TO LEAVE, AND PUSHED ON THE BRAKE TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I EXITED THE VEHICLE AND SAW BRAKE FLUID SPRAYING UNDERNEATH THE TRUCK. AT THIS POINT, I DECIDED TO REPLACE ALL OF THE FAULTY FACTORY BRAKE LINES WITH AFTER-MARKET STAINLESS STEEL BRAKE LINES. I'M STILL IN THE PROCESS OF DOING THIS JOB, AS IT IS VERY MAINTENANCE INTENSIVE JOB, AND I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF TIME TO WORK ON THE VEHICLE, BUT LUCKILY I HAVE OTHER VEHICLES TO DRIVE. I DO NOT THINK THAT THE BRAKE LINES SHOULD HAVE FAILED SO QUICKLY, CONSIDERING I'VE NEVER EXPERIENCED A BRAKE LINE FAILURE ON ANY OTHER VEHICLE. IT APPEARS THAT CHEVROLET SELECTED AN IMPROPER TYPE OF STEEL TO USE FOR THE BRAKE LINES. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 110218 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GCEK19T5YE. Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2000 problem was reported in BARTO, PA. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 car safety problem was reported on June 14, 2013.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . I HAD THE OIL CHANGED ON MY 2000 CHEVY SILVERADO 1500 2 WHEEL-DRIVE PICK-UP TRUCK BY A LOCAL SHOP AND WHEN I STARTED THE TRUCK AFTER THE OIL CHANGE AND PUT THE TRUCK INTO DRIVE IN THE SHOP PARKING LOT, I NOTICED THAT I HAD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN TO THE FLOOR. PRIOR TO THIS, I NEVER HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. THE BRAKES PREVIOUSLY WERE STRONG AND REQUIRED A SLIGHT PUSH. I DROVE A SHORT DISTANCE AND FOUND THAT STOPPING REQUIRED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO BE PRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND IMMEDIATELY RETURNED TO THE SAME SHOP AND ASKED THE SHOP TO TAKE A LOOK. THE SHOP FOUND THAT ONE OF THE BRAKE LINES WAS LEAKING FLUID (UNDER DRIVER SIDE) AND EXPLAINED THAT ALL OF THE BRAKE LINES LOOKED RUSTED. THIS TRUCK PRIMARILY WAS USED BY A HIGHWAY DEPT OUTSIDE OF BUFFALO, NY (ROAD SALT/RUST BELT GEOGRAPHIC AREA) - THE EXPOSURE TO AMOUNTS OF ROAD SALT/ICE-MELTING CHEMICALS MAY HAVE BEEN A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 Safety Review #10533744

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 car safety problem was reported on Aug 04, 2013.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . BRAKE FAILURE ON INTERSTATE 65 SB WHEN ATTEMPTING A PANIC STOP. A SEMI-TRUCK TRAILER BLEW A TIRE WHICH SENT SHRAPNEL/DEBRIS FLYING IN THE AIR. TRAFFIC IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE TRUCK AND DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME PANICKED AND "SLAMMED" ON THEIR BRAKES TO AVOID THE FLYING OBJECTS. IN TURN, I HAD TO FULLY APPLY MY BRAKES TO THE POINT OF ABS INTERVENTION. THERE WAS ONE TO THREE CYCLES OF THE ABS BEFORE I LOST ALL BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE. AT THIS POINT I HAD TO SWERVE ONTO THE SHOULDER TO AVOID REAR ENDING THE CAR IMMEDIATELY IN FRONT OF ME. SUBSEQUENT INSPECTION OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM SHOWS THAT ONE OF THE THREE METAL BRAKE LINES RUNNING ALONG THE DRIVERS SIDE FRAME RAIL, UNDER THE CAB RUPTURED (HENCE LOSS OF PEDAL PRESSURE). THIS FAILURE OCCURRED WHERE THE BRAKE LINES TRANSITION FROM ABOVE THE FRAME RAIL TO ALONG SIDE THE FRAME RAIL. ALL THREE BRAKE LINES IN THIS AREA ARE CORRODED BUT IT IS DIFFICULT TO VISUALLY TELL THE SEVERITY OF THE CORROSION DUE TO A SPIRAL SHIELDING THAT IS WRAPPED AROUND THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF BRAKE LINE. THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS INJURED AS A RESULT OF THIS FAILURE; HOWEVER HAD THE CIRCUMSTANCES BEEN SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT, THIS FAILURE COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A VERY BAD ACCIDENT. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 114012 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GCEC14T7YE. Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2000 problem was reported in SEYMOUR, IN. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

EACH OF THE 3 BRAKES LINES UNDER THE MASTER CYLINDER HAS FAILED ON SEPARATE OCCASIONS, FORTUNATELY ALL NOTICED WHEN BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT. ON ALL 3 OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A NEAR TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE. ALL THE LINE HAD RUSTED THROUGH AND REQUIRED REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 car safety problem was reported on Mar 30, 2013.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . AFTER DRIVING FOR AROUND 30 MILES I WAS PULLING UP TO THE GARAGE AT HOME SLOWING DOWN WHEN THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ENGAGED AT ABOUT 3 MILES PER HOUR. IN A PANIC, THE TRUCK KEPT MOVING WITHOUT STOPPING FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 TO 4 FEET, THEN I PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK AND IT STOPPED. WITHOUT DOING THAT I WOULD HAVE HIT MY GARAGE DOOR, MISSING THE DOOR BY INCHES. THIS ISSUE IS STILL ONGOING AS OF 8/18/13. IN ORDER TO STOP, THE BRAKES HAVE TO BE PUMPED AT ALL TIMES WHEN TRYING TO STOP. THE ANTI-LOCK BAKE SYSTEM ACTIVATES AT 3 TO 4 MILES PER HOUR ALL THE TIME IF NOT PUMPED. I AM A MECHANIC AND STARTED SEARCHING THE INTERNET TO SEE WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM. UPON MY FINDING THERE ARE MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE AS MINE. I HAVE NOT ADDRESSED THE ISSUE BECAUSE THE TRUCK ISN'T USED MUCH, ALTHOUGH IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESS VERY SOON. I FEEL THAT THIS ISSUE SHOULD NOT BE AT MY EXPENSE WHEN THIS ISSUE IS MORE WIDE SPREAD THEN JUST MY TRUCK. SOME HAVE SAID THAT A EARLIER MODEL OF SUV HAD A RECALL WHEN THE ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM WOULD ACTIVATE AT 3 TO 10 MILES PER HOUR AND WAS A DESIGN FLAW. ON A LARGER NOTE, THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON EITHER. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 60000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2GCEK19T2Y1.

REPLACED FRONT BRAKE ROTORS AND PADS. WHEN I TRIED TO GET BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE, THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR, AND BRAKE FLUID WAS LEAKING FROM THE LEFT REAR WHEEL. I BRAKE LINE WAS BADLY CORRODED AND BROKE THROUGH. I HAD ZERO BRAKING ABILITY AND HAD TO BACK THE TRUCK OUT OF THE GARAGE USING ONLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE OF BROKEN BRAKE LINES DUE TO BAD CORROSION ON THIS VEHICLE. THE FIRST INCIDENT ALSO RESULTED IN A BROKEN, BADLY CORRODED BRAKE LINE BREAKING AND LEAKING FLUID, AND RESULTED IN ZERO BRAKING ABILITY. I HAD TO HAVE THE TRUCK TOWED FOR REPAIR THAT TIME. NOT SURE HOW IM GOING TO GET IT FIXED THIS TIME. ALL REMAINING BRAKE LINES ARE ALSO BADLY RUSTED AND ARE SURE TO BRAKE SHORTLY IF NOT REPLACED. THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE TRUCK IS ALSO SEVERELY RUSTED TO A POINT THAT APPEARS THAT THE TRUCK IS 100+ YEARS OLD. THE FRAME IS NEARLY TO THE POINT OF BEING RUSTED THROUGH. THESE ARE SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS CONDITIONS WITH THESE TRUCKS THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY CHEVROLET. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS NEGLIGENCE BY USING INFERIOR MATERIAL FOR BRAKE LINES AND FRAME STEEL. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 100000 miles.

CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000 car safety problem was reported on Sept 13, 2013.CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 2000, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . DRIVING HOME FROM A MORNING OF SHOPPING, I WENT TO STOP TO MAKE A TURN INTO WALGREEN'S PARKING LOT WHEN I NOTICED THE TRUCK WAS DIFFICULT TO STOP.. I PROCEEDED TO MAKE A PURCHASE AT WALGREEN'S, BUT WHEN I WAS FINISHED I DECIDED TO LOOK UNDER THE HOOD. I COULD SMELL AN ODOR THAT SMELLED LIKE BRAKE FLUID, BUT WASN'T SURE BECAUSE THE CONTAINER WAS STILL AT AN ACCEPTABLE LEVEL. I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE THE TRUCK HOME, APPROXIMATELY A HALF A MILE, AND NOTICED THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN TO THE FLOOR. UPON ARRIVING AT HOME, I CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD AGAIN, AND NOTICED BRAKE FLUID ON THE EXHAUST PIPE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. I COULD SEE A BREAK IN THE BRAKE LINE ABOVE THE EXHAUST PIPE AND NOTICED VAPORS COMING OFF THE PIPE. THE TRUCK HAS ONLY 60,000 MILES ON, SO I WAS VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIALS USED FOR INSURING PEOPLE'S LIVES WITH THESE INFERIOR LINES. THE TRUCK WAS TOWED TO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP, AND WAS TOLD THE COST COULD BE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF 1800 DOLLARS. IS THIS WHERE OUR QUALITY MANUFACTURING HAS TAKEN US?
