• Parking brake failure investigation # EA04011

  In a letter dated april 20, 2005, gm notified nhtsa that it had decided that defects that relate to motor vehicle safety exist in certain model year (my) 1999-2002 c/k 1500 series (pbr parking brake system) and my 2001-2005 c/k 2500 and 3500 series (trw parking brake system) pickups with manual transmissions.According to gm, some of these vehicles may have conditions that cause the friction linings to wear to an extent where the parking brake can become ineffective in immobilizing a parked vehicle.Gms action covers an estimated total of 142,585 vehicles.Dealers will install a low-force spring clip retainer for vehicles equipped with the pbr parking brake system and install a redesigned parking brake cable assembly on vehicles equipped with the trw parking brake system. A total of 58 non-duplicative complaints were received by odi and gm concerning the approximately 59,000 my 1999-2002 c/k 1500 series pickup trucks with the pbr parking brake system.These included 22 alleged rollaway incidents, resulting in a rate of 38.5 rollaway incidents per 100,000 vehicles.Odi is aware of 24 complaints regarding the my 2001-2005 c/k 2500 and 3500 series manual transmission trucks recalled by gm, including 5 alleging rollaway incidents.Though the conditions described in gms letter are also present in the c/k trucks with automatic transmissions, the rollaway rate in those vehicles was similar to those observed in peer vehicles studied by odi in this investigation.This engineering analysis is closed.

Turned to look at car i though was going to pull out. Brakes did not stop the truck for the cars about 20 feet in front of me when i put them on it kept on going. This is the third time it happen. Was recalled on 12/29/05 for abs sensors. Cleaned/lubed. Took to dealer , they said there was nothing wrong with the brakes . This was the first time i took it to them before the recall . My brother in law had the problem with brakes in his 1999 chevy truck. *tr

Vehicle was recalled for anti-lock brake defect and repaired at local dealer on 1/19/06. Staring about 1/1/09 the same problem started happening again. Anti-lock would activate during normal stop on dry pavement. This happens on every stop and activates around 5 mph. I called the dealer and they advised me that they fixed it once and are not required to fix it again. I took it to an independent shop and they made the same repair that was made with the recall. *tr

1999 gmc 1500 p/u abs brakes engage at slow stops, causing longer stopping lengths. Abs front wheel sensors were replaced at delehanty pontiac- flushing, 80,000 miles on truck. Expensive repair $540.00. *ak i understand this abs problem has been an ongoing with gm vehicles since 1991. Requesting recall.

I called michael gmc, 3700 s carson, carson city nv to have a sticky accelerator pedal on my 1999 gmc sierra pu repaired. I stated i knew of a tsb issued for this defect. I was told there was no tsb. I checked via the internet and found tsb #00-06-04-007a had been issued in jun 00. I have found a gm dealer who will repair this for me. But i think that hohl should not have refused to correct this problem under the tsb. Do i have any recours to hohl for misleading me?*ak

We own three 1999 gmc 1500 c pickups. Each of these vehicles has experienced the failure of the under dash abs electronic modules when the vehicles reached approximately 85,000 miles or so. We contacted gmc to place a compliant. The repair charges for this problem have ranged from $800 to $1050 each. Gmc refuses to acknowledge the problem or to reimburse for any repair costs for their obvious defective parts. Failure of the abs module still allows for use of the brakes but failure of the abs system which could result in accidents. *jb
