Consumer Description

I WAS TRAVELING CLOSE TO MY HOME AND WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN ON A COUNTRY ROAD. I WENT TO APPLY MY BRAKES WITH NO RESULT. THE PEDDLE WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I SHIFTED THE VEHICLE INTO LOW GEAR AND FINALLY MADE IT HOME. I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TRANSPORTED TO A SHOP FOR REPAIRS. THE COST TO FIX THE BRAKES LINES, MASTER CYLINDER - $1000. NOT HAPPY WITH GMC AND WILL PROBABLY NEVER BUY ANOTHER AMERICAN MADE VEHICLE. I ALSO HAVE A CHEVY TAHOE AND I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THAT VEHICLE AS WELL. *TR
