I HAVE JUST BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT. WHEN DRIVING IT SOMETIMES FEELS LIKE THE TRUCK IS FISHTAILING, GOING DOWN A STRAIGHT ROAD. THE ENGINE MAKES A GARGLING NOISE WHILE DRIVING AND IT GETS EVEN LOUDER WHEN YOU TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THE WIPERS WORK WHEN AND HOW THEY WANT TO WORK; IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT SPEED YOU PUT THEM ON. I HAVE NOT BEEN HAPPY WITH THIS VEHICLE AT ALL, I LOOKED INFORMATION UP ON THIS VEHICLE BEFORE PURCHASING AND IT IS NOT LIKE THE INFORMATION STATED. *TR

BRAKE FAILURE AT SLOW SPEEDS. MY FOOT WOULD BE ON THE BRAKE COMING TO A STOP AND THEN THE ABS SYSTEM WOULD ACTIVATE CAUSING THE CAR TO MOVE FORWARD REQUIRING MORE PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP. RECALL 05V37900 IS AN ACCURATE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM. *JB

DT: THE CONSUMER STATES THAT HER WINDSHIELD WIPERS WENT OUT ABOUT 1 TO 2 YEARS AGO. WHEN SHE CALLED GMC, THEY HAD TOLD HER THE RECALL WAS NOT FOR 2000 MODEL VEHICLES. SHE WAS TOLD HOW TO FIX THE VEHICLE, WHICH WAS DONE. ON SATURDAY, THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT ON THE VEHICLE. GENERAL MOTORS WAS CALLED AND THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY INFORMATION, BUT THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP WAS CONTACTED. THE MANAGER AT THAT DEALERSHIP TOLD THE CONSUMER A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN. THE SHAFT THAT POWERS THE PUMP SHEERED OFF, BECAUSE IT IS TAPERED. THE CONSUMER'S HUSBAND FOUND THE PROBLEM AND HE FIXED IT. *JB
