Sierra 1500 5.6L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 12,050 miles

After Front Rotors and Brake Pads were replaced on Monday, the Front Rotors were Overheating and smell like they are burning. I had no choice but to drive home to NJ from Maine but it was raining most of the way so it was keeping the Front Rotors & Brakes cool for the 400 Mile ride Home. I now have to make an appointment with the dealer to see what the issues are. I know the last time it was in the shop they took care of several recalls with the braking system so not sure if this has something to do with it.

I also had the Truck into the dealer 3 weeks ago because the for wheel drive light was on while not in 4 wheel drive. They replaced a Plastic Sensor control unit on the bottom of the truck and said it was not covered under warranty due to damage. Why would they put a plastic part on the bottom without any type of shielding to protect from rocks and debris. That repair was around $900.00 to repair.

Getting tired of this truck and thinking of getting it fixed then trading it in for another truck either Chevy or Dodge - not sure which one yet.
