I PURCHASED A CHEVROLET 1500 EXPRESS CARGO VAN IN 1999. SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VAN I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH REAR AXLE AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ABS WITH MY BRAKES SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VAN. THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED MY VAN FROM WOULDN'T FIX THE WARRANTY WORK LEAVING MY VAN DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. IN MY RESARCH I AM FINDING THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM AS I AM WITH THEIR AXLE AND THEIR BRAKES. I HAVE ALSO LEARNED THAT THE REASON THE AXLE IS HAVING PROBLEMS IS DUE TO GENERAL MOTORS ARE PUTTING LIGHT DUTY AXLES ON HEAVY DUTY VANS. I FEEL THERE IS A NEED FOR AN INVESTIGATION FOR THIS PROBLEM. WILL YOU HELP?. *AK
