Get in the truck when its cold starts on first try. You drive the truck when it gets hot and stop to purchase something then you get back into the truck put the key in the ignition try to start. It will not start just cranks. I have to let the truck sit for about 10 to 15 minutes then it may start. This problem has cost me (2) new fuel pumps at the GM dealers stranded me in the parking lots in the desert towing etc. After researching they say it is a pass lock problem something about security/ theft. I'm the original owner truck was always hard to start more than3to 4 cranks. Why hasn't this been on a recall for GM?

My truck shut off while driving on the freeway at freeway speeds. I was able to turn the truck back on and headed to a repair shop where I was notified it was the ignition switch which needed to be replaced. There was no warning prior to the incident (no issues with starting or shutting off while in motion).

I have been having trouble with the brakes on my pickup truck causing my truck to want to go into a spin when I try to stop. The truck pulls to either the left or right when slowing to a stop. I brought it to the dealer to have the problem checked out and they told me the brakes just needed cleaning. The problem continued after the cleaning and recently I noticed the ABS system kicking in also. I heard about a recall involving 1999 vintage GM pickup trucks having a problem with the ABS brakes so I inquired with GM about the recall. I was told that there were no recalls on my vehicle; a 1999 Chevy Silverado 3500. I also read a couple of news articles that said GM wasn't finding enough evidence here in the us to justify a recall on these vehicles. I haven't had an accident caused by this yet and I hope that I don't but winter is coming and the likelihood will increase due to the driving conditions.
