My vehicle has a thump while applying and releasing the brake pedal and the manufacturer has tried to repair the drive line/ shaft several times. Now the manufacturer is saying that there is no repair parts for the problem that I'm experiencing.

Multiple reports to the dealership of a continuous vibration and noise in the front end accompanied by uneven tire wear. Tires were rotated reducing but not eliminating the noise. Three to four hundred dollars was requested from me by the dealership to remove and disassemble front differential for further investigation. This request was denied by me because the vehicle was still under warranty. Within 1100 miles and two weeks of last inspection by dealership, front drivers side wheel bearing catastrophically failed. During this event the vehicle became nearly uncontrollable and dove into the oncoming lane, steering was violently reactive and the vehicle ended up traveling off the road into the ditch in the of the direction of travel. The brake rotor and caliper had become red hot setting fire to the drive axel boot and grass beneath the vehicle. The fire was able to be quickly extinguished. Death and/or injury were only avoided due to the lack of traffic in the oncoming lane and no obstructions in the area of the ditch within which the vehicle traveled. Results of bearing failure include destroyed brake rotor, caliper and pads. The front drive axel was purged of grease through extreme heating and axel boot was also destroyed. Although repairs have been completed by the dealership I have incurred a 300 dollar towing bill which the dealership, general motors, and the warranty company gmpp are refusing to cover. The dealership is claiming that there is no diagnostic method of inspection to predict eminent wheel bearing failure. The manufacturer is refusing to acknowledge the multiple reports of the issue and supports it's dealerships practices. The warranty company is only accepting liability of 50 dollars for towing which I have had to pay 300 dollars for.

Truck drive train intermittently makes clunk noise when I first start off from a stop. When I stop at a red light it feels like someone just hit me from behind going from first into second gear. It started at about 88000 miles / 4 years ago and has been getting progressively worse. The problem seems to be electrical of sorts. When the truck starts acting up with this problem I usually pull off to the side of the road & turn off the ignition. . . Wait 20-30 seconds & restart the ignition. . . 98% of the time the problem goes away. This is a recurring problem & the dealerships give me nothing but the runaround. The truck serves me well with 238000 miles on her but I most defiantly would like to find the cure & fix this problem.

2003 GMC sierra truck, steering, has a clunking noise started about 5,000 miles, told by mechanic to take to a dealer, was not the first time he had heard of this problem and was not something he wanted to undertake due to liability, another problem with to much play or (slap) in the drive shaft, took it to dealer they replaced drive shaft, did not solve problem , so apparently they did not know how to solve problem and basically were grabbing at straws, I still have problem, front running lights keep burning out (electrical problem).
