Consumer Description

ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WITH MY 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500 I EXPERIENCED POWER STEERING AND BRAKE LOSS AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE AND BEGINNING TO DRIVE.. STEERING WAS VERY HARD AND I HAD TO "STAND" ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT ALL BEGAN TO WORK AGAIN BUT I WAS WITHOUT POWER STEERING AND BRAKES FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. I TOOK IT TO MY DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE BRAKE UNIT AND REPLACED A HOSE ON THE POWER STEERING PUMP. PARTS ARE PROBABLY NOT AVAILABLE AS I LEFT THEM AT THE DEALER. NOW I AM GETTING A SLIGHT SURGE WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED AND THIS IS ONE OF THE EVENTS THAT HAPPENED BEFORE THE FAILURE CAUSING ME TO FEAR THAT FAILURE MIGHT HAPPEN AGAIN. *TR
