1 Carrier/rack problem of the 1997 GMC Sonoma

Failure Date: 03/15/2003

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.

2 Carrier/rack problem of the 1998 GMC Sonoma

Failure Date: 11/20/2000

The system that holds the spare tire broke at the spring bolt/cable connection. Many cars and trucks had to swerve to avaoid the tire once it came out from under the truck! GMC says they won't fix it, they don't have enough history with the pick up. I bought it used from a friend . That tire came out at 25 mph!!! it was a real scary situation!.
