After steering inkage and electrical problem originally I asked to cancel and have my vehicle returned and was refused. This is the third incident which could have been fatal. This thing is dangerous. The side was damaged when I purchased the vehicle, but they said it happened on the lot. Today the brakes overheated including the wheels and tires. These people knew I was leaving for mexico when I bought the vehicle. When the tie rod end let go had I left for mexicvo I probably would not be alive. I told gmc and they ignored the problem. The dealer replaced the tie rod end and apparently performed no inspections. I asked the dealer to cancel the contract and give me back my vehicle. He told me that was not possible. I am in mexico for the winter.. The dealer attempted to repair the lights three times and could not find the problem. I had to keep replacing fuses and when I got to mexico an auto electric shop found the problem. I have reason to believe this milage was turned back on the vehicle. This was supposedly a new 2000 vehicle when I made the purchase. The last two incidents my wife was with me and could also have been killed. The dealer refused to give me the paperwork on the first two incidents. I do have the receipts for the mexico repairs and the disc brakes which were replaced
