I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE 10 MONTHS AGO AND HAVE TO REPLACE THE HEADLIGHTS 9 SEPERATE TIMES NOT INCLUDING THE BRAKE LIGHTS 5 TIMES. AFTER THE 3RD TIME THE MAN AT THE AUTO PARTS STORE STATED THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH GMC> THE LIGHTS GET TOO HOT AND BURN UP THE BULB AND THE CONNECTORS. I HAVE HAD 2 BUY NOW 4 RABBITS CONNECTORS AND THEY MAKE THE BULB LAST A LITTLE LONGER BUT THE EXSPENSE IS SAD. IF THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND IT IS POSTED ALL OVER THE INTERENT FROM CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME ISSUES WHY HAS NOT RECALL BEEM PLACED FOR THESE LIGHTS. IF IT IS HEATING HOT ENOUGH TO MELT A CONNECTOR THAT IS A FIRE HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. NOW MY SPEEDOMETER STOPED WORKING AND TO MY SURPRISE I WASS ADVISED THIS ALSO A COMMON GMC PROBLEM WITH THE CLUSTER REPAIR BEING REQUIRED TO FIX IT.

ENGINE STALLS WHEN YOU SLOW DOWN AND THE AIR CONDITIONER OR WIDOW DEFOGGER IS ON . I HAVE ALSO HAD POWER SURGING. I HAD TO REPLACE THE MAP SENSOR TWICE AND THE BRACKET AND IT IS STILL SHOWING BAD. I ALSO REPLACE THE CAM SHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND THE THERMOSTAT. ALSO THE WIPER ON THE REAR WILL NOT SPRAY ANY WATER OR WASHER. *TR
