The brake lines and the entire frame is rusted out. There are big wholes in the frame. The garage wouldn't even put it on the lift, because it was so bad. Have replaced breaks and still the truck has break issues

Hit 3 deer in high speed collision. My air bags didn't function. Then research online showed I have tikata airbags. Then I noticed my brakes if wet or have ice on rotors, when braking, I get terrible squeaking noise and front end will shimmy or vibrate. Rear brakes too. And my power steering started making noise, like a rubbing sound a few months after I bought truck, though no fluid loss or stiffness in steering. I know these air bags are dangerous, metal parts have killed a few people. Why wasn't I notified by automaker about what airbags were installed in my truck!? I need fixed. I do a lot of mountain driving. I would like them to work properly. And these strange noises really bug me. I can't be breaking down deep into mountain roads when I work or travel. Much highway traveling too. The cruise control has never worked, since two weeks after buying truck. If coming up to hills when set, then as you drive up & down more hills, it will self excellerate! Not slow down on declines. Very scary a couple of times. Very dangerous! Engine would jump into passing gear. I have the 5 cylinder 3.5 motor. Automatic, sle extended cab 4x4. Should I go back to dealer to get fixed?

When baking up the ABS fault code came on was going 5 MPH or less. Turned the truck off and the code went away. It has done this a total of three times all while backing the truck up at a very low speed, other issues I am having the air conditioning will only work on high and sometimes the other speeds will work. The rear passenger window will not roll down. I am the original owner of this truck and have never received any recalls on any of these items and the braking system is a safety concern.

Can no longer roll down the drivers or passangers windows. No longer have any control of the power locks from either door control or remote. Blower for air only works on high setting 1 2 and 3 work intermittently. The brakes will start to sound like they are pulsating and then the ABS fault comes on the dash and the brake light lights up.

Brake light went out. Brake switch was serviced 2 years ago under a recall for the exact same problem. Gm will not replace the part unless I pay for a new one. How can a new part have the same exact problem as in the recall. The cruise control will not work.

Abs failure. 3 months after mfg warranty expired the ABS failure light came on. Abs system activates randomly even when not braking, buzzed, ABS and brake lights on, then ABS failure displayed. Stayed on until it randomly turned off by itself. Daily repeating of problem. Codes said ABS sensor failure. Had it replaced, no resolution. Problem kept happening. Had entire front hub assembly replaced with new ABS sensor installed at factory, still same problem. Had wiring checked, all ok. Persistent problem for years. Gave up on gm ever fixing it. Apparently on gm canyon/colorado forums this is a major persistent dangerous problem. Most users opt to disable the ABS system because gm cannot provide a solution. Sounds like another of gm's brilliant engineers design failures. Shocked no one has been killed yet. All these vehicles on the road with failing or disabled ABS systems and gm hasn't a clue.

Abs light comes on with no apparent reason, also traction fault also comes on from time to time affecting gas mileage. There is also a misfire problem.

The ABS fault light comes on and the ABS system starts trying to over work. This in my opinion is a safety hazard. I have had this looked at and have been told it's a known issue, however no recall. Second issue:HVAC system has a known issue where it keeps over heating and the HVAC harness has to be replaced, after being burned. This is also a safety issue. My vehicle is out of warranty now. Im sure you have other folks reporting these issues...just look at the forums on the internet...
