We were in a storage facility parking our camper when I got out of my GMC truck. . . I left it running in park because it was so hot outside. . . While I directed my brother to put the camper in place with his vehicle. This took approx. 20-30 minutes when all of a sudden my truck is going in reverse all on its own running into some boats that were stored there. Wth!! my truck got rear end damage,bumper damage,light broken and my topper was messed up as well. . . . Along with the boat trailers that it hit! was there any recall with this problem? I bought this truck about 2 years ago with only 29,000 miles on it and it still only has 38,000.

Tl- the contact owns a 2006 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact indicated that there was a intermittent leak in the vehicle that was getting progressively worse. The contact stated that the brake lines intermittently were rusted to the point of corrosion and may potentially fracture due to various holes in the brake lines. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who replaced the brake lines. The contact also heard a loud boom in which the contact had to put the gear in second to park the vehicle and then the vehicle was taken to an independent repair shop who replaced the transmission. The vehicle was repaired and the approximate failure mileage was 90,000. Dyd.

I own a 2006 GMC sierra. I purchased this vehicle from a relative (70 year old woman) and it has 22,000 miles on it. I have just had a mechanical issue begin. When slowing the vehicle to approximately 5 mph, the vehicle abs activates and the truck thrusts forward. I was advised by a mechanic that this is a failure of both front wheel hub assemblies. Because this vehicle has so few miles on it I began looking on line for recall information. I am shock how many people have also experienced problems around 20,000 miles, some resulting in crashes. I also learned that the company that manufactures the hub assemblies has issued a recall for the parts unless it was installed by the factory (gm). This isn't right and someone will get injured badly. Gm should recall the vehicle.
