Filed Sep 5, 2000FL

I HAD NO BRAKES AND HAD A CHOICE TO REAR END A SMALL PICKUP OR GO OFF THE ROAD, I DID THE LATER. THE BRAKES ALSO FAILED ON FEB 25, 1998 FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT. THEN AGAIN ON OCT 20, 1998, THERE WAS DAMAGE TO THE TRUCK AND A TRAILER, THE DAMAGE HAS NOT BEEN FIXED NOR WAS IT TURNED IN TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY FOR REPAIR. WE HAVE TRIED REPEATEDLY TO HAVE GM DEALERS TO LOOK AT THE BRAKES BUT TO NO AVAIL. THEY SAY THERE ISN'T A RECALL ON THE VEHILCE, I WOULD LIKE TO SELL IT BUT I DON'T WANT SOMEONE GETTING KILLED.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
