4 Automatic Transmission problem of the 2001 GMC Sierra 2500

Failure Date: 08/25/2010

I have owned my 2001 GMC Sierra 2500hd truck since it was new. The vehicle currently has approximately 92000 miles on it. With the brake line problem I recently had I figured I should report the other issues that I don?t think I should be having with a vehicle that is less than 10 years old. The oil cooler lines and the transmission cooler lines have all rusted through and have had to be replaced. Along with the lines, the connectors for the lines have all had to be replaced due to catastrophic failure (they rusted so bad that were falling apart). If the vehicle was 20 years old I might expect this problem, but not on one less than 10 years old and the mileage that it has.
