The parking brake on my 2000 GMC sierra will not hold. I have adjusted both the park brake shoes and cable, but it will still not hold the truck. This is the same issue that led to a recall on GMC and Chevrolet pick-ups with manual transmissions, but the trucks equipped with automatic transmissions were not included. However, the park brake must be in working order to pass the nc safety inspection.
Brake failure due to brake fluid leaking from rusted out brake lines.
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.
