Service Brakes, Hydraulic / Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Certain pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles may experience unwanted antilock brake system (ABS) activation. This condition is more likely to occur in environmentally corrosive areas. This recall will be launched in the "salt belt" states of connecticut, delaware, illinois, indiana, iowa, maryland, massachusetts, maine, michigan, minnesota, missouri, new hampshire, new jersey, new york, ohio, pennsylvania, rhode island, vermont, west virginia, wisconsin and the district of columbia only.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
This can cause increased stopping distances during low-speed brake applications, which could result in a crash.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers are to remove the wheel speed sensor and thoroughly clean the wheel speed sensor mounting surface on the bearing, apply rust inhibitor to the cleaned surface, grease the mounting surface, reinstall the wheel speed sensor, and check the peak-to-peak output voltage to ensure the wheel speed signal is within specifications. The recall began september 22, 2005. Owners may contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438 or GMC at 1-866-996-9463.
Report filed by GENERAL MOTORS CORP.. Manufacturer campaign number 05068. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: .
05V155000Received . 316,508 units.
Fuel System, Gasoline / Delivery / Fuel Pump
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Certain trucks and sport utility vehicles were built with fuel module reservoir assemblies that contain fuel pump wires connectors may overheat under certain operating conditions.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
If the ignition circuit wire is exposed, the fuel pump fuse will blow, disabling the fuel pump and causing an engine stall or no-start condition. If sufficient heat is conducted to the pass-through connector, a hole in the connector may result, which may cause a 'service engine soon' light to be illuminated during the emission system diagnostic routine. Fuel vapor and in some cases liquid fuel may leak out of the fuel tank through the hole in the connector body. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Also if the ignition circuit or ground wire is exposed and shorts to the fuel level sender card wires, inaccurate fuel level readings may result.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will remove the fuel tank, and remove the module reservoir assemblies from the tank, and install a new service kit free of charge. An interim letter to owners was mailed on may 25, 2005. The owners were re-notified on october 19, 2005, since parts are now availabe. Owners may contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438 and GMC at 1-866-996-9463.
Report filed by GENERAL MOTORS CORP.. Manufacturer campaign number 05027. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: .
05V005000Received . 98,221 units.
Power Train / Driveline / Driveshaft
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Some pickup trucks, vans, and sport utility vehicles equipped with a hydraulic pump driveshaft that can fracture, resulting in immediate loss of hydraulic power steering assist. On certain vehicles equipped with hydro-boost power brakes, the same condition can result in loss of power assist for braking after the reserve pressure is depleted.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
An inoperative pump can cause increased steering effort, and in hydro-boost equipped vehicles also increased braking effort, but does not completely eliminate the ability to steer or slow the vehicle.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will replace the hydraulic pump. The campaign began on february 14, 2005. Owners may contact chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438 or GMC at 1-866-996-9463.
Report filed by GENERAL MOTORS CORP.. Manufacturer campaign number 05001. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: .
02V178000Received . 525,254 units.
Air Bags / Frontal / Sensor/Control Module-Inactive
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
On certain pickup and utility trucks, some of these vehicles have an air bag sensing diagnostic module (sdm) which contains an anomaly that could result in the driver and passenger's air bag failing to deploy during certain frontal crashes.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
In a vehicle crash, front seat occupants may receive more severe injuries.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will recalibrate the sdm on the affected vehicles. Owner notification began august 28, 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC at 1-800-462-8782.

00V345000Received . 1,383,922 units.
Service Brakes, Hydraulic / Foundation Components / Hoses, Lines/Piping, and Fittings
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Vehicle description: light duty pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles. Some of these vehicles have a clearance condition between the front right-hand brake pipe and the body cross sill that could decrease to the point of allowing contact during the life of the vehicle. If contact occurs and the brake pipe becomes damaged, in half of the brake system there can be a loss of brake fluid and pressure. The brake warning lamp will be activated when the brake fluid level reaches the indicator limit.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
During braking, the pedal will be lower than normal and stopping distances will be longer. If this occurs when stopping distance is limited, a crash could occur.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will inspect the front right-hand brake pipe for wear. If there are signs of wear, this section of the brake pipe will be replaced with a new designed brake pipe section. If there are not signs of wear on the brake pipe, the dealer will install a spacer clip to ensure sufficient clearance between the brake pipe and the body cross sill.

00V343000Received . 35,659 units.
Structure / Body
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Vehicle description: light duty pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles. Some of these vehicles have loose or missing rear wheelhouse plugs. Under certain vehicle operating conditions, exhaust gases can flow forward and accumulate in the rear wheelhouse.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
These gases could flow into the passenger compartment if the plug is missing or loose and could cause possible illness, unconsciousness, or death.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will inspect the vehicle for loose or missing wheelhouse plugs and install new plugs if necessary.
