Have owned '90gmc c1500 p/u & '99 gmc c1500 suburban in past 12 years; both vehicles have had same problems w/ front brake pull/wear; suspension; brake pipes; engine/trans. Hesitation, hang....; corroded + battery cables, batteries; leaking HVAC ducts; and on & on. How in the world does 12+/- years of documented brake problems across vehicle lines/models not warrant a massive recall and/or compensation to owners for obviously faulty engineering, materials, etc.....????!!!! I suppose the ford/firestone problems took precedence? Can you say "class action"??

Gmc can not solve the problem. Vehicle has been returned 14 times under warranty and service bulletins can not fix the problem. Vehicle pulls violently to the left. At high sppeds( 62-68 MPH) the vehicle has a tendency to jump to the left over the center line into on-coming traffic.

I have tried to resolve this with san bernadino gmc and inland valley gmc. No satisfaction yet. Brakes go out on an average of 5000-6000 miles. Now, gmc will not warranty them any longer because of my problems. Steering wheel noise has got better but not fixed yet. Had this since I have had the vehicle. Vibrating in rear end, occures after warm. Continouse problem.
