problem #2

Sierra 1500

  • 88,000 miles
Truck drive train intermittently makes clunk noise when I first start off from a stop. When I stop at a red light it feels like someone just hit me from behind going from first into second gear. It started at about 88000 miles / 4 years ago and has been getting progressively worse. The problem seems to be electrical of sorts. When the truck starts acting up with this problem I usually pull off to the side of the road & turn off the ignition...wait 20-30 seconds & restart the ignition...98% of the time the problem goes away. This is a recurring problem & the dealerships give me nothing but the runaround. The truck serves me well with 238000 miles on her but I most defiantly would like to find the cure & fix this problem.

Fuel gauge acting very erratic and vehicle will not start have noticed online that many GMC Sierra owners of similar years have experienced same problems very expensive to repair.
