After a very long time, i was able to safely maneuver to a safe stop.…

I am writing regarding the very poor brake life and performance failure on my 2002 chevrolet pickup, 1500 series purchased new from a local dealer. At 19,500 miles the brakes were diagnosed (on 1-15-09) by the dealer as needing complete overhaul, a cost of $571.00. The problem was noticeable at 12,000 miles by excessive pedal travel, the same with the emergency brake. No action was taken or notice of brake wear…

My four year old son climbed in the back seat and hit his knee on the metal track. It cut his knee. This has happened several times. I have even cut my hand on these tracks when i am cleaning out the truck. I have a 2002 ford…

My 2002 chevy silverado has a no start problem. The truck has always started on first use but after it has been driven and shut off, many times it does not restart. It has happened in all types of weather and and even if only runs for a short period. There is no rhyme or reason to it. Sometimes it starts and sometimes it doesn't. After the truck sits for about 2 hours, it usually starts again. I have taken it into…
