Spare tire fell off from the cable, unknown, I also had a 2001 GMC yukon and the same thing happened, this is unsafe as it could become detached while moving and needs to be recalled.
The contact owns a 2002 GMC Sierra 1500. While driving 30 mph, the front of the vehicle shook and wobbled so violently that it left the contact disoriented. The contact had no control over the vehicle and had to pull over for a while. When the contact retuned to the road, the vehicle continued to shake. The failure occurred between the speeds of 30-45 mph. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who installed new bearings, which made the failure worse. The vehicle was taken to two other mechanics, but each repair failed. The manufacturer and dealer were not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 177,000.
2002 GMC sierra, concerning abs. At low speeds ( less than 5mph) brakes release, will not hold. . Recall in 2005, was fine ,lasted 2 years, then same thing, virtually no braking at low speeds, dealer said it could be $400 or $500 to fix, I don't think so. I asked him to pull the fuse, refused, found location of fuse and yanked it and the trucks brakes work fine. This is a dangerous situation and should be fixed permanently by GMC.
