Consumer Description

BRAKE, FUEL, TRANSMISSION COOLER, AND POWER STEERING COOLER LINES BECAME VERY RUSTY AND EVENTUALLY LEAKED. MOST LINES HAVE BEEN REPLACED AT THIS POINT, AND A FEW STILL NEED TO BE. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK USED IN SEPTEMBER 2005 WITH 72,010 MILES ON IT AND PROBLEM HAD ALREADY STARTED. FUEL LEVEL SENSOR HAS FAILED TWICE, AND REQUIRES REPLACEMENT AGAIN. POWER WINDOW MOTORS ON BOTH SIDES HAVE EACH FAILED TWICE. TRUCK NOW HAS OVER 150,000 MILES, AND I'M ONLY REPORTING BECAUSE MANY OF THESE SAME TROUBLES APPEAR TO BE COMMON ON LATER MODEL CHEVY/GMC TRUCKS. *TR
