: the contact stated the ABS engages at low speeds of 20 mph and below. As a result, the stopping distance was increased. There is a NHTSA recall, # 05V379000, regarding the ABS. The vehicle has the same problems as indicated in the recall; however it is not included in the recall because of the VIN. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection. The dealer cleaned the wheel speed sensor, replaced the pads and rotors. However, those replacements did not correct the problem. Additionally, a knocking noise was heard in the engine. The dealer inspected the engine although, no repairs were made. The passenger sie window was inoperative. Updated 03/28/06.

I had a problem with my left side drivers door window. I lowered it at a mcdonald's drive thru window, and it made a grinding sound and would not hardly roll up. I took my hand and helped it up into place. I paid for the repair at a local repair shop out of my own pocket. The cable on the window regulator was bad. I had to get a new one from C&O motors ( Chevrolet dealer) and cross lanes tire and auto repair shop made the repairs for me.

Many of the problems took several times in the shop to fix. The castrophic failures in the engine & transmission have never been fixed. The truck has lunging, dead spots & surges & the transmission clunks (shifts hard, jerky) the auto may or may not accelerate on demand & will later accelerate when you need to apply the brakes.
