general problems of the 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

I just had transmission work done on my truck when it burned the gears up. My brakes have always either went completely to the floor before they stopped or locked up. Right now its broke down due to too many problems for me to be able to fix but has only been not driveable since July 2017.

The contact owns a 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. While the vehicle was parked and the gear was in park, the vehicle independently began to roll. The contact applied the emergency brake and the vehicle stopped. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 166,000. The contact could not provide the VIN.

Extreme rust on under carrage of vehicle. Brake lines rusted out causing brake failure frame rusted out at rear leaf springs and frame rail cross members. Rear shock hangers rusted off vehicle. Frame rusted so bad that it prohibits toung of any type of trailer. Toyota had same problem and they had to do a recall so why has gm not had to do the same thing. It is a very large safety issue affecting many vehicles on the hwy today.
