Twice now while lightly applying brakes to come to a stop at an intersection the antilock brake system engaged. Since it was unexpected I almost didn't come to a stop in time before rolling into the intersection into traffic. The ABS warning indicator was illuminated intermittently before this with recorded DTC C0268 (Pump motor circuit shorted). Also the transfer case input shaft seal failed which caused transmission fluid to leak into the transfer case, completely filling it. That caused the transfer case vacuum switch to fail and transmission fluid was sucked into the vacuum lines and eat through them causing a vacuum leak. Because of the vacuum leak, whenever I would accelerate to highway speeds and the engine would use what vacuum it could, the 4WD actuator would lose its vacuum then regain it when the RPM's dropped and try to lock the front axle while at highway speeds which would cause the truck to jerk and the gears to grind. And lastly the Airbag warning indicator is always illuminated for reasons I do not know.

AS A LAID OFF AUTOMOTIVE SUPPLIER, I HAVE A KEEN INTEREST IN WHERE MY AUTOMOBILES ARE MADE. A YEAR AGO, I PURCHASED A NEW CHEVROLET S-10. NOWHERE ON THE PAPER WORK DID I SEE NAFTA INFORMATION, COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INFORMATION, OR PERCENTAGE OF FOREIGN CONTENT LISTED, AS REQUIRED BY LAW. IN REVIEWING YOUR LAWS ON CAFE (RECENT INFORMATION IN THE NEWS AND POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS), I NOTICED THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INFORMATION, AND THE FACT THAT THEY ARE STILL CURRENT. AALA, I ASSUME, STILL APPLIES. MY TRUCK DID NOT HAVE THAT INFORMATION LISTED. AS A LAID OF AUTOMOTIVE SUPPLIER, WHO COLLECTED THIS INFORMATION, I KNOW FOR A FACT, THAT WITH ALL OF THE AUTOMOTIVE COST CUTTING, THE AMOUNT OF US CONTENT IS NO LONGER HIGH. AT THE AUTO SHOW IN JANUARY, I NOTICED ALL MANUFACTURES (FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC) EXCEPT GM HAD THIS INFORMATION PROMENANTLY POSTED ON THEIR STICKER. PLEASE PROVIDE INFORMATION ON LAW CHANGES (AND WHY IF CHANGED) OR GM'S LISTING OF CONTENT AND HOW THEY ARE GOING TO COMPLY. *AK
CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 208, "OCCUPANT CRASH PROTECTION."
