| Was driving my 2000 1500 and had brake failure. upon inspection not only did i find extensive rust on lines but my rear shackles are rotting through and some places on the frame. started to think there no way this should not be happening to this truck. only 140000 miles this has got to be a case of poor quality. not only is this a safety issue and should be checked on but it is an expensive fix. i did slide off the road but i came to a safe stop in a field luckily my e-brake worked and noody else was around. could you please investigate this and take care of it. chevrolet should stand by their product but they don't care about us, they just want their money. also there is a lot of rust on body of truck, like actual holes in bedside and passenger side rocker panel is bad. thank you for your time and consideration ,sincerely chevy truck owner:( | |||

| I had brake line failure,due to rusted lines, had to replace all lines!! almost caused an accident. had rocker panels, and cab corners rust through, had to replace rear bumper, because of extreme rust through, have had to have frame repair, because of extreme rust. the rust is not slowing, and the truck will eventually have to be taken off the road, because it will be un- road worthy.why will gm not address this widespread issue? | |||

| On a snowy day going back home for lunch, i tried to stop at a 4 way stop but it took a little bit longer than i expected. first i thought it was because of the abs engagement and road condition. but i felt something unusual, so i pressed the brake pedal after leaving the 4way stop around 30mph. then the pedal started loosing back pressure and it went down to the floor before it stopped. i could come back home with lower gear down shifting and parking brake. when i checked the bottom of the vehicle, i found fluid leakage around the brake line on the floor. | |||
