2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500

JAN 2011 DURING A REAL BAD WINTER WE LOST THE FRONT BRAKES WHILE DRIVING, MULTIPLE BRAKE LINES WERE REPLACED AT A COST OF $600+, APRIL 2012 WHILE DRIVING AGAIN 25MPH THE REAR BRAKE LINES BURST!! JUST HAD TO PAY FOR MORE BRAKE LINES AT A COST OF $485. THE TRUCK NOW HAS 117,000 MILES AND THIS IS NOT THE FIRST ISSUE WE HAVE HAD, THE ODOMETER NO LONGER WORKS AND HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THE BLOWER FOR HEAT AND A/C. *TR

UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS THE HVAC SYSTEM SWITCHES FROM COOLING FINE TO FULL HEAT MODE. THE HVAC COMPRESSOR IS STILL RUNNING, HOWEVER SOME TYPE OF DAMPER SERVO MALFUNCTIONS TO LET IN HOT AIR (POSS FROM THE HEATER CORE AREA) OPENS FULL AND REPLACES THE COLD AIR WITH EXTREMELY HOT AIR. IT HAPPENS ABOUT EVERY 7-10 MILES ON A BAD DAY AND ONCE A DAY ON A GOOD DAY. THE ONLY REMEDY I HAVE FOUND FOR IT IS TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK, TURN OFF THE IGNITION, OPEN THE DOOR TO KILL THE INTERIOR POWER, CLOSE THE DOOR, RESTART THE VEHICLE. THIS SOME HOW RESETS THE DAMPER SERVO TO ITS PROPER OPERATING RANGE. *TR

WIPERS WILL NOT TURN OFF. HAVE TO PULL FUSE TO GET WIPERS TO TURN OFF. I CANNOT RE-INSTALL THE FUSE UNLESS I STOP AND GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE TO DO THIS. IF I DO NOT PULL THE FUSE, THE WIPERS WILL EVENTUALLY START TO DAMAGE THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE READ MULTIPLE INCIDENTS OF THIS ONLINE, WITH NO DEFINITE FIX. TRUCK HAS 68,000 MILES ON IT. *TR
