Attempting to stop for a school bus, as I pressed on the brake pedal it went to the floor and the truck did not come to a complete stop. After pulling over, it was discovered that the brake line was leaking fluid on the ground. Upon further inspection, noticed the brake lines are corroded. Be it know that the frame and body parts on this truck are also rusted as to not pass state inspection. The truck is just over 10 years old and unsafe to drive due to multiple manufacture defects.

External left rear door handle pulled off when simply opening the door 11/15/2010. External left front door handle pulled off when simply opening the door 12/15/2012. Two door handles pop off on a new vehicle not a defect? same flimsy plastic fastener attachment broken in both cases. Google search indicates this is a common defect experienced by numerous owners that GMC and Chevrolet will not admit to. The GMC dealer even acknowledged it's a defect! repair cost - $300/handle!.

My 2001 GMC Sierra pu truck after the second year of ownership began to emit howling sounds from the upper right side of the cab's interior. Gradually the noise got worse. Today it is an almost constant howling sound as if wind is coming through the windshield. I will return it to the dealership next week for a recheck. It is my understanding that other, similar GMC and Chevrolet trucks are doing the same thing.
