Complaints on fileComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

2004 GMC 2500HD HAD VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE IN 2009. GARAGE STATED THAT ALL BREAK LINES WERE EITHER RUSTED THROUGH OR WOULD SHORTLY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I DID NOT BELIEVE A VEHICLE WITH UNDER 25K MILES COULD HAVE SUCH AN ISSUE SO THE GARAGE PROVIDED PHOTOS TO SHOW THE EXTENT OF THE RUST AND THE LEAKING LINES. I HAVE SINCE SEEN THAT THE NTSB IS INVESTIGATING GMC TRUCKS UP TO 2003 BUT IT IS CLEAR THAT THE PROBLEM IS ALSO PRESENT ON 2004 MODELS. REPAIRS WERE ~$2900. *TR
