WELL, THE MOST COMMON BOLT TO BREAK OFF OUT OF THE 12 MANIFOLD BOLTS IS THE ONE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE DRIVERS POSITION. UNFORTUNATELY, THAT IS THE HARDEST BOLT TO REMOVE BECAUSE OF IT'S LOCATION. MOST SHOPS I'VE BEEN TO SAY THAT THE TICKING SOUND THAT YOU HEAR ONCE THIS BOLT BREAKS OFF IS A LOOSE LIFTER. THAT IS INCORRECT! THE TICKING SOUND IS ACTUALLY AN EXHAUST LEAK STEMMING FROM, MOST LIKELY, THE BROKEN BOLT DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER.

NEAR THE ABS CONTROL UNIT IT LOOKED LIKE THE METAL LINE(S) HAD EXPLODED AND BRAKE FLUID WAS ALL OVER THE UNDERSIDE OF THE TRUCK AND DRIPPING DOWN THE FRAME RAIL. CHECKING THE VEHICLE, I FOUND ALL THE METAL BRAKE LINES, ESPECIALLY NEAR THE ABS UNIT, WERE BADLY RUSTED. TWO PROBLEMS: 1. THE FAILURE WAS CATASTROPHIC WITHOUT WARNING. WHILE THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER THE BRAKE LINE FAILURE, IT PROVIDED NO PRIOR INDICATION OF PROBLEMS. BRAKE FLUID WAS OK PRIOR TO THE LINE FAILURE (NO BRAKE SERVICE LIGHT) AND THE BRAKE FLUID LOSS WAS THE RESULT OF THE BRAKE LINE RUPTURE. THE BRAKE LINE, WEAKENED BY RUST, FAILED WITH THE INCREASED PRESSURE WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED. 2. THERE WAS NO RESIDUAL OR BACK-UP BRAKING AVAILABLE EVEN WITH FULLY DEPRESSED BRAKE PEDAL. I'VE READ GM'S STATEMENT THAT THE BRAKE SERVICE LIGHT WOULD PROVIDE ADVANCE WARNING AND THE BRAKING SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE BRAKING (WITH LONGER STOPPING DISTANCES) SHOULD THERE BE FAILURES IN THE SYSTEM. UNFORTUNATELY, IN CATASTROPHIC BRAKE LINE FAILURES THERE WERE NO WARNINGS; THE WARNING LIGHT WAS DELAYED AFTER THE FACT. FROM AN ENGINEER'S PERSPECTIVE, DID THE METALLURGICAL CONTENT OF THE BRAKE LINES CHANGE IN 1999 OR PERHAPS THAT WAS WHEN THE ABS HOUSING CHANGED TO ALUMINUM? THE GALVANIC NATURE OF THE STEEL BRAKE LINES CONNECTING TO ALUMINUM IN THE PRESENCE OF SALT WATER WILL CERTAINLY RESULT IN THE INCREASED CORROSION OF THE BRAKE LINES.

ABOUT 1 1/2 WEEKS AGO MY WIFE TYPED IN \"2000 SILVERADO BRAKE PROBLEMS\" ON THE COMPUTER AND WE WERE AMAZED TO PULL UP 59 PAGES OF COMPLAINTS FROM CONSUMERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS OF 1999 TO 2006 SILVERADO AND GMC SIERRA WHICH ARE BEING INVESTIGATED BY YOUR OFFICE ALREADY. THAT IS WHEN WE PUT 2 AND 2 TOGETHER WITH THE COMPLAINTS OF THE BRAKELINES RUPTURING UPON QUICK HEAVY BRAKING, AS WAS IN MANY COMPLAINTS ALSO, THAT MAY HAVE BEEN THE REASON THAT OUR SON HAD THE ACCIDENT WITH THIS TRUCK IN SEPT. OF 2010. HE WAS DRIVING IN VERY HEAVY TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATE IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE, CRAWLING ALONG, WHEN SOMEONE HAD PULLED IN FRONT OF HIM AND HE HAD TO SLAM ON HIS BRAKE - HIS BRAKES FAILED BECAUSE OF THE LINE BURSTING AND HE HIT AN EXPENSIVE TRAFFIC INFO SIGN AND DID $4000 DAMAGE TO OUR TRUCK. HE CHOSE TO GO FOR THE SIGN INSTEAD OF INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE AND PROBABLY KILLING SOMEONE. THEN WE CALLED OUR CHEVY.

MY 2000 CHEVROLET SILVERADO STARTED EXPERIENCING ANTILOCK BRAKING PROBLEMS ON DECEMBER 2003. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT WHENEVER I BRAKED SLOWER THAN 10 MPH, THE BRAKES WON'T STOP THE TRUCK UNTIL AFTER IT SLOWED DOWN TO LESS THAN 3 MPH. THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD PULSATE STRONGLY. THEN AT THAT SPEED THE BRAKES WOULD GRAB VERY HARD. IT WAS REALLY ANNYOING AND DANGEROUS. FOR SOME TIME I NEARLY HIT SOME CARS AHEAD OF ME. ON FEBRUARY 2004 I HAD THE FRONT HUBS, ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS REPLACED AT A COST OF $746.60 INCLUDING LABOR AT AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP. THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED OVER A YEAR AGO. THE MILEAGE ON THE TRUCK WAS 85,000, BUT THE TRUCK WAS BARELY 3 YEARS OLD. FYI, GM MADE A PROFIT OF ABOUT $8,000 WHEN I BOUGHT THE TRUCK, ACCORDING TO INDUSTRY PUBLICATIONS. MULTIPLY THAT BY 1,200,000 AND YOU HAVE A FILTHY PROFITEERING COMPANY ON YOUR HANDS. I WANT MY MONEY REIMBURSED. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED SUCH A SAFETY PROBLEM IN MY LIFE BEFORE. FOR SETTLEMENT, I DON'T WANT A COUPON FOR BUYING ANOTHER GM TRUCK AT A DISCOUNT. I WANT TO BE REIMBURSED! PLEASE DO NOT SETTLE FOR LESS!

I OWN A 2000 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. I WENT TO GET MY FIRST INSPECTION STICKER BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURER\u0019S TWO-YEAR INSPECTION STICKER WAS OUT OF DATE. THE TRUCK FAILED INSPECTION BECAUSE THE REAR PARKING BRAKE SHOES WERE WORN AND THE PARKING BRAKE WOULD NOT WORK. I WAS PUZZLED HOW THIS COULD BE WHEN I HAVE NEVER USED MY PARKING BRAKE. I LIVE IN TEXAS AND HAVE NOT HAD A REASON TO USE IT. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE PARKING BRAKE SHOES WERE WORN BECAUSE THE CLIPS THAT HOLDS THEM IN PLACE HAD FAILED. HE ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS A TECHNICAL BULLETIN (REFERENCE NUMBER 02-05-26-002 & 02-05-26-001) ABOUT THIS PARKING BRAKE ISSUE AND ADVISED ME TO CALL CHEVROLET. I DID. I WORKED WITH GREG SYNDER AT CHEVROLET\u0019S CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND MY SERVICE REQUEST NUMBER WAS 1-126-315-169. I, FROM THE START, VIEWED THIS AS A MANUFACTURER\u0019S DEFECT. IN SHORT, CHEVROLET WOULD NOT FIX OR ASSIST IN THE COST OF THE REPAIRS BECAUSE THEY FELT THAT THIS WAS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. ALSO THEY NOTED THAT MY TRUCK WAS OUT OF THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY (3 YEARS/36000 MILES). I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH THE DECISION. FIRST, HOW CAN THIS BE NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR IF THE PARKING BRAKE HAS NEVER BEEN USED? ALSO, WHO REPLACES THEIR PARKING BRAKE SHOES ON A VEHICLE THAT IS 3 YEARS OLD AND THE PARKING BRAKE AGAIN HAS NEVER BEEN USED? EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN USED, THE PARKING BRAKE SHOULD BE ONE OF THE LAST ITEMS ON A VEHICLE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I AM REPLACING THE PARKING BRAKE SHOES BEFORE I REPLACE MY BRAKES WHICH I USE EVERYDAY. I FEEL THIS MATTER IS A SAFETY ISSUE BESIDES BEING A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. WHAT IF I HAD NEEDED TO USE MY PARKING BRAKE OR IT HAD FAILED WHEN ENGAGED? IT SHOULD BE LOOKED AT. CHEVROLET SHOULD HAVE NOTIFIED CUSTOMERS OF THE POTENTIAL PROBLEM.

THE FIRST TIME AT 29,987 MILES, THE PARKING BRAKE DID NOT WORK. IT REQUIRED \"ADJUSTMENT\" AND I WAS CHARGED $112.50. I WAS SURPRISED THE PARKING BRAKE REQUIRED ADJUSTMENT SINCE IT IS NOT USED TO STOP THE VEHICLE, BUT RATHER USED TO KEEP IN PLACE WHEN PARKED AND IT WAS RARELY USED SINCE WE LIVE ON FLAT TERRAIN. I WAS FURTHER SURPRISED TO SEE THAT THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BUT I LET THIS GO SINCE I WAS TOLD IT WAS A WEARABLE PART. I DID NOT SEE THE ACTUAL PARKING BRAKE PADS BUT WAS CONCERNED THAT I WAS NOT ABLE TO ADJUST THEM AND HEY REQUIRED ADJUSTMENT AFTER SUCH SHORT OF MILEAGE. AGAIN AT 66,023 MILES, THE PARKING BRAKE CEASED WORKING FOR THE SECOND TIME. THIS IS JUST 36,036 MILES AFTER THEY WERE ADJUSTED. AFTER LOOKING AT THE ORIGINAL PARKING BRAKE PADS, THE FRONT TOP OF THE PAD WAS WORN ALMOST COMPLETELY AWAY WHILE THE BACK PAD WAS WORN VERY LITTLE. THIS COST ME AN ADDITIONAL $228.84 TO HAVE THE PADS REPLACED AS THEY COULD NO LONGER BE ADJUSTED. I DID NOTICE THE NEW PADS WERE OF A DIFFERENT DESIGN WITH A LARGER CLIP THAT HOLDS THEM IN PLACE, APPLYING MORE PRESSURE OVER A LARGER AREA. ACCORDING TO THE TECHNICIAN, THIS NEW BRACKET HELPS HOLD THE PAD IN PLACE SO THAT WEAR, WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, DOES NOT OCCUR. THIS WOULD SUGGEST THE ORIGINAL PAD AND RETAINING CLASP WAS POORLY DESIGNED CAUSING ABNORMAL WEAR ON THE PARKING BRAKES. EVERY CHANCE I GET, I SPEAK WITH PEOPLE THAT ARE DRIVING 2000 SERIES TRUCKS AND ALMOST ALL THAT I HAVE SPOKEN WITH, THEIR PARKING BRAKES ARE NON-FUNCTIONAL.

(NOT AN INTUITIVE CORRECTION.) 3. TURN THE HEADLIGHT MANUAL SWITCH TO ON.

I ASKED HOW AN ENGINE KNOCK CAN BE NORMAL TO A BRAND NEW ENGINE AND WAS TOLD THAT THE NOISE WAS CALLED \"PISTON SLAP\" WHICH GENERAL MOTORS IS AWARE OF THIS \"DEFECT\" AND WAS WORKING ON A FIX. I THEN EXPLAINED TO THE SERVICE WRITER, SINCE I'VE WORKED AS A MECHANIC, THAT I'VE NEVER HEARD A NEW OR REBUILT ENGINE KNOCK UNLESS THERE WAS A MISTAKE MADE OR A FAULTY PART INSTALLED. I'VE HEARD HIGH MILEAGE ENGINES WITH A KNOCK PROBLEM, AND I'VE HEARD HIGH MILEAGE ENGINES WITH \"PISTON SLAP\". AFTER RESEARCH I FOUND OUT GM WAS GOING TO REPLACE THE FAULTY PISTONS WITH GM'S NEW DESIGN PISTONS AND THAT WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE \"PISTION SLAP\" ISSUE. AFTER TALKING WITH ANOTHER DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS ISSUE, I WAS TOLD THAT GM HAS REPLACED A FEW ENGINES WITH THE NEW DESIGNED PISTIONS WHICH NOW STILL HAVE THE \"PISTON SLAP\".

THE KNOCK NOISE IS MOST OFTEN NOTICED DURING START-UP AND TYPICALLY DISAPPEARS WITHIN THE FIRST 5-30 SECONDS (MAY LAST LONGER IN EXTREME COLD TEMPERATURES) SINCE WE LIVE IN ALASKA THIS IS VERY TRUE. THE NOISE IS USUALLY MORE NOTICEABLE ON THE INTIAL START-UP WHEN THE TEMPTURE IS BELOW 50 DEGREES AND MAY BE MORE PRONOUNCED ON THE FIRST START FOLLOWING A LONG TRIP. THE NOISE \"MAY\" BE CAUSED BY AN INTERACTION BETWEEN CARBON THAT HAS FORMED ON THE PISTON, THE PISTON MOTION AND THE CYLINDER WALL. AT THIS TIME, ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR THIS CONDITION BY REPLACING THE ENGINE ASSEMBLY OR PISTONS IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
