Complaint Summary

SERVICE BRAKES

Owner Narrative

FIRST OFF WOULD BE MY DASHBOARD AIR BAG, THE DASHBOARD PLASTIC IS CRACKING WITH THE CONCERN ON FLYING DEBRIS I BROUGHT MY GMC 1500 INTO MY LOCAL SERVICE/SALES CENTER AND HE TOLD ME WITH OUT A RECALL THERE IS NOTHING HE COULD DO FOR ME. SECOND I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH WHAT SEEMS TO EITHER THE POWER TRAIN OR BRAKES FROM DAY ONE I PURCHASED MY TRUCK. WHAT IT DOES IS WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, RELEASE THE BRAKE, AND THEN APPLY THE ACCELERATOR I GET A BIG CUR PLUNK SOUND AND FEELING OF THE TRUCK JERK. THIS IS COMING FOR THE REAR END OF MY TRUCK I WOULD ASSUME THE REAR AXIAL. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS UP TO MY LOCAL SERVICE/SALES CENTER , MULTIPLE TIMES. HE HAS NOT STOPPED THE PROBLEM AND TELLS ME THERE IS NOT MUCH MORE HE CAN DO WITHOUT THE MANUFACTURER POSTING A BULLETIN OUT.
