| I was driving home from work and attempted to stop at a stop light when my brake pedal suddenly went all the way to the floor and my truck was majorly unresponsive to stopping. it took at least double the normal amount of time to stop and i almost hit the car in front of me. thankfully, i was traveling at a low speed and had plenty of time to stop or else there would have been a very bad accident. the culprit of this incident was corroded brake lines on my gmc sierra, one of which ruptured suddenly during this incident. *tr | |||

| We have symptoms of the gmc truck recall inl 05v379000 . we have safety concerns because our truck fails to stop properly and we concerned this will ultimately cause an accident. we took our vehicle in for diagnostics at brookfield pontiac-gmc truck dealer. diagnostics has determined that we indeed have the failures defined in recall 05v379000 . we are informed wisconsin has been left out of this recall. our neighboring states such as illinois and michigan however are included. we feel gmc has left our safety at chance and feel this is a legitimate complaint that gmc needs to include any consumer that has this saftey issue defined in 05v379000 . we are filing this complaint as a record for when, and if this safety issue, causes an accident and bodily harm or worse. as we can testify wisconsin residents are seeing this safety issue defined in the recall 05v379000 and our safety should be addressed by the gmc corporation as it has been by other states surrounding us. *nm | |||

| This is an ongoing problem with the vehicle the throttle sticks in the idle position when the gas pedal is released. it takes a very firm push to release the throttle and when it does release the vehicle lurches forward. complaints to the dealer result in a recommendation to have the fuel system flushed on an ongoing basis. some relief is achieved by cleaning the throttle body area around the butterfly plate. this has to be done almost monthly. the dealer also states that he does not know of a factory fixes to this problem.*ak | |||
