The consumer stated that the mileage on the vehicle was under 14,000 miles. The brakes began making a scraping noise. The service dealer said the front brakes were heavily corroded, they were replaced. The radiator cap was leaking.

Since day one of getting the truck, I notice that the gas tank meter was broke. Brought it back in to them for meter plus the brake system. They fixed the meter problem but they said needed brake pads changed. So I went home changed the brake pad, rotor, drums. Went back in ever since then till now for coolant, knocking of engine, a/c, main engine seal gaskets, brackets, fuel system, motor mounts, belts, seals, nipples, studs, fan clutch, pulleys, plus brakes are still failing,(went on line found out brakes are recalled they failed to tell me that). As far as I can see the motor is bad. The truck has cost me money out of pocket, work time, as well as my own on a persistent basis. The truck is junk.

I bough 2001-GMC-truck-sonoma. As a left over. On January 11, 2002,is the date I received it ,that is when I bough it. On April 10, 2002 @\at 1160 miles,they replaced both of the front brake rotors. On August 14, 2003 at 7745 miles they replaced both of the rear brake rotors, and turned front rotors. Now as of jan212006,there is only 17,868 miles on the truck, it's always be garage keeped. And well cared for. It's still has the new small inside, now all 4 of the rotors and brakes haves to be replacd. I cannot under stand why its shouldbe up to me to replace with only then miles-per above.

When driving at any speed vehicle is pulling to the right intermittently. Right front brake pads excessively worn.

Brake pads and rotors failed.

Traveling 65mph on interstate pressed on brakes to slow down, brake pedal went to floor. Pulled to side of road & waited. Took vehicle to dealer. Mechanic said brakes & rotors were worn & needed to be replaced. Problem reappeared & a lot worse. Back to dealer & told pads needed replacing.

Brakes: when driving and applying the brakes the vehicle was very hard to stop. There was a leaky brake line, had disc pads on both sides replaced. Had to have steering box replaced at 9000 miles.

The pads are worn unevenly causing the caliper guide sleeves to bind. Nlm.

Front tires rub against the wheel well when turning into driveway or on very slight incline. In addition, front brake pads are prematurely wearing out.

My 1998 GMC Sonoma developed a braking problem - pulling hard right. The vehicle (under warranty - 15,000 miles) was taken to the dealership to correct the problem. The front rotors were turned, pads deglazed, wheel bearings repacked, rear drums turned and shoes adjusted to correct the problem. The cost to me was $217. I have never experienced brake problems at such low milage on any vehicle I have ever owned. I am convinced that a defect exists in the braking system that gm is attempting to blame on the consumer.
