NHTSA Complaint #10465646 — 2002 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500

I WAS DRIVING DOWN LOCAL ROAD, WHEN THERE WAS A THREE CAR ACCIDENT WAY AHEAD. I SOWED RIGHT DOWN, MAY 25-30 MPH AS WE CAME UP ON IT, REALIZING AS I WENT TO SLOW DOWN MORE, MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR. I MADE IT HOME AND PARKED. MY BOYFRIEND LOOKED AT IT NEXT MORNING, I HAD NO BRAKE FLUID LEFT, ONE OF THE LINES WAS SO CORRODED THE FLUID LEAKED ALL OVER THE DRIVEWAY. I HAD RECENTLY HAD MY BRAKES DONE AND INSPECTION WITHIN THE PAST MONTH. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK BRAND NEW, AND HAVE HAD A LOT OF ISSUES WITH IT. INCLUDING ABS THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY RECALLED, AND NEVER WORKED AFTER IT WAS REPLACED, WHICH I DID COMPLAIN ABOUT, HE INTERIOR SET MATERIAL NEEDED REPLACING, THE TAIL GATE CABLES AND HINGES ARE BROKE, THE DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL ON THEM. A SENSOR WENT IN GAS TANK, THE DRIVERS SIDE MIRROR FELL OFF, THE WINDOW CABLE ON DRIVERS SIDE HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE, PASSENGER SIDE ONCE, THE LIST GOES ON AND ON. LIKE I SAID, I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT, TRADED IN OLDER CHEVY SILVERADO, PAID CASH WITH GM DISCOUNT. I LOVE MY TRUCK, BUT THINK IT HAS HAD WAY TOO MANY PROBLEMS. I HAVE DEFINITELY READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ON THE CORRODED GAS LINES AMONG OTHER ISSUES AND WOULD HOPE CHEVY WOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. *TR
