I have had two problems with this truck - one the driver door locks clicker stopped working and I had to have the chevy dealer replace the automatic door locking part - now the brakes are a problem - I have 17,000 miles on this truck and the front rotors had groves in them and had to be turned - the pads have been replaced with heavy duty pads - my regular tire and brake shop in town said they would never have put the heavy duty pads on this truck. Four days after the first fix it started squeaking and I had to take it bake to the dealer and he said they had to keep it and check the brakes were getting hot, they got me a rental car for four days while they took the brakes apart and put them back together and said they must have put them together the first time wrong!.
