1999 GMC Suburban

I'VE HAD THIS VEHICLE IN FOR BRAKE REPAIRS AT LEAST 6 TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT IT. IT NOW HAS 26,500 MILES. THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED 4 TIMES, MASTER CYLINDER REPLACED, PROPORTIONING VALVE REPLACED, AND RIGHT SIDE CALIPER REPLACED. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE FOLLOWING REPLACED: MOTOR PULLEY, A/C COMPRESSOR, TIE ROD, IDLER ARM, PITMAN ARM, COIL IN STEERING COLUMN, MAIN BELT, FRONT DIFFERENTIAL GASKET. EVERY TIME I TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALER, IT SEEMS THAT I AM A PEST........I WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER GMC PRODUCT, AND I AM SEEKING LEGAL ADVICE FOR A POSSIBLE MANUFACTURER BUYBACK. *AIK

WHILE TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH IN TRAFFIC POWER ASSISTED STEERING PUMP FAILED, FORCING THE CONSUMER TO PULL OFF TO SIDE OF ROAD. CONSUMER STATED THAT BRAKING SYSTEM ALSO RAN THROUGH THIS STEERING PUMP, AND SHOULD BE UNDER SEPARATE SYSTEMS. DEALERSHIP HAS EXAMINED VEHICLE, AND WAS REPAIRING THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/ATTACHMENTS.*AK
