2000 GMC Sierra complaints

NHTSA #04V129000 GM RECALL #04007 MY VIN:[XXX] GM TELLS ME THAT MY TRUCK IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. GM'S RECALL NOTICE THAT I SEE ON MYGMLINK.COM AFTER ENTERING MY VIN STATES "ON SOME OF THESE VEHICLES, THE GALVANIZED STEEL TAILGATE CABLE THAT SUPPORTS THE TAILGATE IN THE FULL OPEN POSITION MAY CORRODE, WEAKEN, AND FRACTURE." I HAVE GALVANIZED STEEL CABLES WHICH ARE CORRODED AND WEAKENED. ONE FRACTURED ABOUT A YEAR AGO, THE OTHER IS CLOSE TO BREAKING. I CONTACTED GM ABOUT GETTING TEMPORARY REPLACEMENTS THAT THEY ALSO STATE IN THE RECALL. THIS IS WHEN THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. MY QUESTION IS, HOW COULD IT NOT BE PART OF THE RECALL? I HAVE A 2000 SIERRA AND MY CABLES ARE CORRODED, WEAKENED AND FRACTURED. I WOULD THINK ALL CABLES THAT WERE MANUFACTURED WITH GALVANIZED STEEL HAVE A PROBLEM WITH CORRODING BECAUSE OF MOISTURE. GM EVEN STATES IN THEIR RECALL QUESTION/ANSWER SECTION THAT "MOISTURE AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINANTS MAY ENTER BETWEEN THE METAL STRANDS OF THE CABLE AT EITHER END OF THE CABLE AND IN SOME CASES, THE BLACK PLASTIC SHEATHING MAY BECOME CRACKED OR TORN DURING NORMAL USAGE CREATING A PATH FOR MOISTURE ENTRY. MOISTURE MAY COLLECT AND CONCENTRATE NEAR THE CENTER OF THE CABLE DURING NORMAL USAGE OF THE TAILGATE, THE CABLE IS FLEXED AT THE MIDPOINT. REPEATED FLEXING, PLUS CORROSION CAUSED BY THE MOISTURE AND CONTAMINANTS, MAY WEAKEN THE METAL STRANDS, AND THEY CAN EVENTUALLY SEVER UNDER LOAD." THE FACT IS, THE CABLES ARE BREAKING DUE TO TH

JANUARY 27, 2005, MY TRUCK WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP D/T LOUD METAL GRINDING IN THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL(DRIVER'S SIDE). THE BRAKES AND ROTORS WERE REPLACED. THE SOUND CONTINUED AND WAS TAKEN BACK TO DEALERSHIP FEBRUARY 2, 2005 AND THE BEARING WAS "CLEANED OUT". MAY 7, 2005 WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL FELT LIKE I HIT SOMETHING. WHEN I GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE THERE WAS A BURNING SMELL. ROUNDING A CURVE AT 25 MPH THE HUB AND THEN THE AXEL BROKE. THE TRUCK WAS NOT DRIVABLE AND WAS TOWED BY AAA TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT WAS REPAIRED AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS D/T THE AFTER-MARKET WHEELS.

DT: CONTACT STATES THE CABLES OF THE TAILGATE BROKE TWICE. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS MODEL OF VEHICLE, BUT THIS SPECIFIC VEHICLE DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL CAMPAIGN. *AK

DT: ABS LIGHT IS COMING ON. TOOK VEHICLE TO THE MECHANIC WHO TOLD THE CONSUMER THERE WAS A RECALL, WHEN CONSUMER CALLED MANUFACTURER, THEY STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. *TT

ANTILOCK BRAKES ENGAGE AT IMPROPER TIMES AT LOW SPEEDS DURING BRAKING. EFFECT IS TO LIMIT BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS AT LOW SPEEDS. NEARLY HIT OTHER VEHICLES AND OBJECTS. FAILURE IS INTERMITTENT BUT INCREASING IN FREQUENCY. CONSIDERING DISABLING THE ANTILOCK SYSTEM.

I HAVE A 2000 GMC SIERRA EXTENDED CAB 4X4 Z71. I BELIEVE I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY ABS SENSOR AS HAS BEEN REPORTED BY OTHERS. I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT BUT I HAVE HAD MANY CLOSE CALLS. I PULLED THE FUSE FOR MY ABS AND NOW I DO NOT HAVE THE PROBLEM, BUT AM AFRAID MY BRAKES WILL LOCK UP IN FOUL WEATHER.

2000 GMC SIERRA EXPERIENCED BRAKE FAILURE. *MR THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AS THE CONSUMER ENTERED A PARKING SPACE. THE CONSUMER FIRMLY HELD HIS FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND TAPPED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF HIM. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPLACED THE PADS AND ROTORS. THE BRAKE WERE INTERMITTENT. RUST WERE REMOVED FROM THE SENSORS. THE LEFT FRONT SENSOR DROPPED OUT AND WAS REPLACED. *SC

DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000, GMC, SIERRA. WHILE BEGINNING TO TAKE OFF THE ACCELERATOR STUCK. IF DRIVER PRESSES HARD THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IT WOULD RELEASE. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE 2000. HE FILED A COMPLAINT ONCE BEFORE, BUT AFTER FILLING THE COMPLAINT, THE PROBLEM QUIT OCCURRING . HOWEVER, CURRENTLY IT RECURRED. THIS HAPPENED IN THE SUMMER MONTHS WHEN HE BEGAN TO TAKE OFF. HE TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, AND THEY TEMPORARILY FIXED IT. VEHICLE WOULD BE OKAY FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, AND THEN THE PROBLEM RECURRED. TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FIVE TIMES.*AK *SB

DT: THE BRAKE LIGHT AND ANTI- LOCK BRAKE LIGHT ON THE DASH COMES ON AND THE BRAKES ARE SPONGY. THE CONSUMER HAS NOT EXPERIENCED BRAKE FAILURE YET. THE CONSUMER HAS TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO DEALER AND THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT BEEN NOTIFIED.

I HAVE A 2000 GMC SERRIA TRUCK. I HAVE ALSO INCOUNTER THE ABS FAULT WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THE WORST PART IS WHEN PARKING IN A PARKING LOT WITH CARS IN FRONT OF YOU. THE TRUCK HAS MARKED DECREASE IN STOPPING. I HAVE ALSO INCOUNTERED WHERE THE PEDAL GETS ROCK HARD.I DON'T GET A LIGHT ON THE DASH OR SHOW CODES. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT COULD COST OVER $500.00 TO REPAIR. I DO NOT HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY RIGHT KNOW. I HAVE BEEN ONLY DRIVING MY 3.5 MILES TO WORK AND BACK. WE USE MY WIFES CAR TO GO ANY WHERE ELSE.

I HAD THE DEALER DO A SCHEDULE TIRE ROTATION, AND ON THEY WAY HOME I REACHED THE SPEED OF 40 MPH THE TRUCK STARTED TO SHAKE LIKE I WAS GOING OVER SPEED BUMPERS. THIS STOPPED BUT THE FRONT END STILL BOUNCES WHEN EVER YOU GO OVER A SERIES OF SMALL BUMPS THE WHOLE FRONT JUST SHAKES YOU HAVE TO USE TWO HANDS TO KEEP THE VEHICLE IN CONTROL, DON'T USE THE BRAKE THE PEDAL GOES SOFT UNTIL YOU ARE OUT THE ROUGH ROAD. I HAVE HAD THE TIRES REPLACED AND BUT NEW RIMS ON THE VEHICLE. THE BOUNCE IS STILL NOTICEABLE AT SPEEDS OVER 40, THE ROAD DOES NOT CHANGE THE EFFECT. THE CROWNING OF THE ROAD IS NOT THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER SAYS THE FRONT IS TIGHT AND CAN NOT DUPLICATE MY PROBLEM SO THEY CAN NOT FIX IT. THE SERVICE MANGER SAYS I'VE LOWERED MY FRONT END THIS GMC SIERRA IS TOTALLY OEM EXC FOR TIRE, AND AFTERMARKET DRESS.I HAD THE TRUCK ALIGNED AND THE THRUST ANGLE WAS OFF SO MY SON-INLAW AND I DID A THRUST ALIGNMENT FIRST AND THE FRONT END ALIGNMENT. ALSO ONE OF THE UPPER CONTROL ARM BOLTS WAS SLIGHTLY LOOSE, YOU COULD SEE THE BROWN RUSTY POWDER AROUND THE BUSHING SO THIS WAS LOOSE FOR SOME TIME. I AM A DIESEL MECHANIC SO I KNOW THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG LOOSE, OR WORN OUT THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, THINGS DO WEAR OUT AND I DO NOT MIND PAYING FOR THINGS TO BE DONE CORRECTLY

REDUCED BRAKING WHEN GOING SLOW OVER BUMPY ROADS OR RAIL ROAD TRACKS.WHEN BRAKING IN THESE CONDITIONS THE ABS WILL PULSE FOR NO REASON AND REDUCE BRAKING.

I OWN A 2000 GMC SIERRA TRUCK THAT HAS BECOME HAZARDOUS TO DRIVE DUE TO REPEATED ANTILOCK BRAKE PROBLEMS. AT SLOW SPEEDS THE ANTILOCKS WILL ENGAGE AND REMAINED ENGAGED, PREVENTING THE TRUCK FROM COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE MATTER HAS BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE OVER THE LAST YEAR. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I'VE COME EXTREMELY CLOSE TO SUSTAINING SUBSTANTIVE VEHICLE AND PROPERTY DAMAGE. AS SUCH, THE TRUCK IS VIRTUALLY UNDRIVEABLE FOR SAFETY REASONS.

AFTER DRIVING THROUGH 12 INCES OF SNOW FOR APROX. 100 FEET, A THUMPING NOISE STARTED IN THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL AREA. TWO MECHANICS CHECKED IT AND SAID IT WAS NOTHING. AFTER 2 MONTHS THE FRONT DRIVE SHAFT FAILED, WAS REPLACED AND THE SOUND STOPPED. SHORTLY AFTER WE STARTED HAVING TROUBLE STOPPING AT SLOW SPEEDS, THE ABS WOULD KICK THE PEDAL UP, AND THE STOPPING DISTANCE AT 10 MPH BECAME 50 -100 FT. WHEEL SENSOR BEARING WAS REPLACED AT A COST OF OVER $800. THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR WINDOW LEAKS AIR, THE DOOR WEATHERSTRIPING ON BOTH SIDES FALL OFF ON A REGULAR BASIS.THE GAS GUAGE SOMETIMES READS EMPTY WHEN THE TANK IS JUST FILLED, AND SOMETIMES BOUNCES FROM PLACE TO PLACE. THE DRIVERS SIDE PWR WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED AND PULLED THE GLASS OUT OF THE TRACK. PWR MIRROR SWITCH FAILED CANNOT ADJUST MIRRORS EXCEPT TO THE LEFT AND UP. DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS BLOW BULBS CONSTANTLY. TIRES HAVE STRANGE WEAR, ONE LUG HIGH, ONE LUG LOW, ALL FOUR TIRES, PROPERLY INFLATED.BACK DOOR DOESN'T LATCH IN COLD WEATHER, DRIVERS DOOR LATCH FROZE OPEN THIS WINTER. WASHER FLUID SWITCH ONLY WORKS WHEN PUSHED "BEYOND NORMAL" POSITION. REAR VENTS IN CONSOLE WON'T CLOSE. AND THE WHOLE TRUCK VIBRATES VIOLENTLY AT SPEEDS ABOVE 55 MPH HARD TO HOLD ON, HAVE TO SLOW DOWN AND PULL TOWARD SIDE OF ROAD TO AVOID ACCIDENT. HAPPENS MANY TIMES PER DAY.

DT: AT LOW SPEEDS THE ABS WOULD ACTIVATE AND THEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP, AGAIN THIS WAS AT VERY LOW SPEEDS LIKE PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT OR GAS STATION. NO ACCIDENTS OR STRANGE SOUNDS. TOOK TO DEALER, AND REPLACED FRONT HUBS WHICH COSTED $936.67. NO OTHER PROBLEMS OCCURRED SINCE THAT REPAIR. *AK

ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ACTIVATE AT LOW SPEEDS

ANTI-LOCK BRAKES KICKING IN AT LOW SPEEDS (UNDER 10 MPH) WHEN COMING TO A STOP CAUSING UNEXPECTED ELONGATED STOPPING DISTANCES. HAD TO PULL FUSE TO DISABLE THE ABS MODULE IN ORDER TO BRAKE NORMALLY (BUT W/O ABS). PER GMC DIAGNOSTIC, SPEED SENSORS NOT PUTTING OUT CORRECT READING AT LOW SPEEDS. GMC DEALER REPLACED BOTH FRONT AND BEARING & HUB ASSEMBLIES. TRUCK OUT OF WARRANTY BUT DEALER PICKED UP HALF THE COST, AND I PAID $352.17. FILED COMPLAINT WITH GM - PROBLEM FILE # 1-236485201.

BRAKE FAILURE

2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS FOR ANTI-LOCK BRAKE FAILURE ON GMC 2000 SIERRA 1500 FOR CORROSION, 7/1/2004 AND 10/6/04. REPLACED HUBS. VIN 2GTEK19T8Y127

ANTI-LOCK BRAKES CHATTER AND FAIL TO STOP ON MY 2000 GMC SIERRA PICKUP TRUCK AT ANYTHING UNDER 10MPH.THIS STARTED LAST OCTOBER. THE DEALERSHIP QUOTED $480 TO CORRECT. SAVED A BUNCH OF MONEY BY UNPLUGGING THE FUSE FOR THE ABS SYTEM. STOPS FINE NOW. I ALMOST HIT THE BACK OF MY GARAGE WALL AND STOPPED CARS IN FRONT.

ANTILOCK BRAKE PROBLEMS ON MY 2000 GMC SIERRA PICKUP. HARD TO STOP VEHICLE AT AT LOW SPEEDS [UNDER TEN MILES PER HOUR.]

ANTI-LOCK BRAKES BEGAN ACTIVATING OVER THE SLIGHTEST BUMPS IN THE ROAD. ONE DAY PULLING INTO PARKING SPACE, ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ACTIVATED AND TRUCK WOULD NOT STOP AND HIT THE GAURDRAIL.

BRAKES FAIL BELOW 5-8 MPH.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM MALFUNCTION

ANTILOCK BRAKES ENGAGE AT LOW SPEED, LIKE WHEN COMING UP TO A STOP SIGN, OR WHEN PULLING UP TO A DRIVE THRU WINDOW.

FAILURE OF THE ABS SYSTEM ON MY 2000 GMC SIERRA PICKUP. ABS WOULD ACCTIVATE AT SLOW SPEEDS AND WOULD MAKE STOPPING TRUCK VERY HARD.HAD TO DE ACTIVATE ABS SYSTEM SO TRUCH WAS USEABLE.DEALER STATED THAT PROBLEM WAS DUE TO REGION OF COUNTRY THAT THE TRUCK WAS USED IN AND WAS NOT THEIR PROBLEM!

VEHICLE: 2000 GMC SIERRA, EXT. CAB, 4WD, LESS THAN 19000 MILES. VEHICLE EXIBITED INTERMITTANT LOW-SPEED ANTILOCK BRAKE ACTIVATION. ALTHOUGH THERE WERE MANY "CLOSE CALLS" ESPECIALLY WHEN THE ANTILOCK MOTOR WOULD ACTIVATE UPON INITIAL BRAKE APPLICATION (VERY LOW PRESSURE IN HYDRAULIC LINES), NO DAMAGE WAS CAUSED TO THE VEHICLE OR OTHER PROPERTY. A POTENTIAL DANGEROUS SITUATION EXISTS WITH THESE HEAVY VEHICLES. LOW OUTPUT FROM RIGHT FRONT ABS SENSOR WAS DIAGNOSED. I REPLACED ENTIRE HUB AND SENSOR ASSEMBLY. THE SYMPTOM IS NOW GONE. THE OLD PART IS STILL IN MY POSESSION FOR INSPECTION.

THERE WOULD BE EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE WHEN STOPPING AT ANY SPEED. DEALERSHIP INFORMED/REPAIRED THE RUSTED REAR BRAKE PADS/DISC. *AK THE REAR ROTORS WERE HEAVILY CORRODED WITH PIECES BREAKING OFF WHICH REDUCED THE BRAKING SURFACE TO LESS THAN 50 %. *JB *NM

INCORRECT FUEL GAUGE READINGS WHEN AT A FULL TANK. *AK

ABS MALFUNCTIONING ABS WOULD KICK ON DUE TO A BAD VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR CAUSING A LENGTHING OF STOPPING DISTANCE WHICH COULD LEAD TO ACCIDENTS. *AK AS A TEMPORAY FIX I PULLED THE FUSE FOR THE ABS CONTROLLER TO ELIMINATE THE LEGHTENED STOPPING PROBLEM

2000 GMC SIERRA HAS PROBLEMS WITH BRAKE ROTORS, ENGINE FAILING TO RESTART, AND THE PASSENGER CAB WAS NOT LEVEL.*MR SHIMS WERE INSTALLED TO MAKE THE CAB LEVEL. THE REAR ROTORS WERE CRYSTALLIZED AND FLAKING OFF WHICH CAUSED PULSATION WHILE BRAKING. THE ABS SENSOR FAILED WHICH RESULTED IN INTERMITTENT BRAKE LOSS. THE GAS PEDAL BECAME STUCK AT TIMES. *NM

THE BRAKE HUBS WERE COMING APART AND RUSTING. BIG CHUNKS OF RUST WAS FALLING OUT OF THE HUB. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 31,000 MILES. PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS. BRAKE ROTOR SURFACES FOUND TO BE DELAMINATED AND RUSTY. VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. *TT

FOG LIGHT LENSES ARE FALLING OUT DUE TO IMPROPER INSTALLATION. *AK *BF *NM

VEHICLE HAD BRAKE ANTILOCK PROBLEMS WHEN FIRST PURCHASED. LOUD SOUND WHEN ATTEMPTING TO STOP AND PEDAL BECOMES STIFF RESULTING IN SLOW/NO STOPPING. DEALER REPLACED WHEEL SENSOR. WITHIN A FEW MONTHS THE PROBLEM IS HAPPENING AGAIN. SAME NOISE SAME RESULTS. DEALER STATES SENSOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS WOULD SEEM TO BE SOMETHING THAT WOULD LAST MUCH LONGER THAN A FEW MONTHS (LESS THAN A YEAR!) IT HAS THE STRONG POTENTIAL TO CAUSE SERIOUS HARM/ACCIDENTS AS THIS HAPPENS WITH NO WARNING.*AK

PROBLEMS WITH POWER STEERING PUMP ON GMC TRUCK.***NO ANSWER REQUIRED***. *MR THE CONSUMER STATED HIS POWER STEERING SHAFT BROKE. *JB

THE FRONT AND REAR ROTORS RUSTED PREMATURELY. THE DEALERSHIP REPAIRED THE ROTORS THREE TIMES, BUT THE CONSUMER IS STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. PLEASE PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION. *JB ALL THESE REPLACEMENT ROTORS HAD VERY LOW MILEAGE ON THEM AND WOULD NOT PASS PENNSYLVANIA STATE INSPECTIONS. THEY WERE A.C. DELCO GM REPLACEMENT ROTORS. CONSUMER FEEL THAT GM ROTORS ARE POOR QUALITY AND UNSAFE. *BF *NM

DRIVER AIRBAG DID NOT WORK IN A COLLISION, DRIVER INJURED, TRUCK TOTALLED. SOME TRUCKS WITH THIS MAKE YEAR AND MODEL DID HAVE A RECALL ON THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE AND DID NOT RECIEVE A RECALL NOTICE. *AK

TOOK THE TRUCK INTO A LOCAL GOODYEAR STORE TO HAVE A WHINING NOISE DIAGNOSED. THE TECHNICIAN COULD NOT HEAR THE NOISE AND TURNED THE WHEEL IN ONE DIRECTION. WHEN HE TRIED TO TURN IT BACK, IT WOULD NOT TURN. HE PROCEEDED TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING PUMP AND ADVISED US THAT THE SHAFT ON THE POWER STEERING PUMP HAD JUST SNAPPED OR BROKEN. THE POWER STEERING PUMP WAS REPLACED, AND WE RETAINED THE OLD POWER STEERING PUMP. I HAD HEARD ABOUT A RECALL FOR A SIMILAR ISSUE AND CALLED A GM DEALERSHIP TO INQUIRE INTO THE RECALL. I WAS ADVISED THAT GM HAD ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL OF OUR TRUCK FOR THE EXACT PROBLEM WE HAD EXPERIENCED, BUT THAT OUR PARTICULAR TRUCK (WHEN IT WAS LOOKED UP BY VIN NUMBER) WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE ADDITIONAL TRUCKS.*AK

THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD INTERMITTENTLY FLUCTUATE WHILE DRIVING, THIS CAUSES A PROBLEM FOR CONSUMER NOT KNOWING THE PROPER AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK. CONSUMER IS AFRAID OF RUNNING OUT OF FUEL WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED.*AK UPDATED 06/16/06. *JB
