2005 Gmc Canyon Complaints

I TOOK MY TRUCK TO A LOCAL SHOP TO HAVE THE FUEL SYSTEM LOOKED AT AFTER I STARTED SMELLING FUEL. THE SERVICE MANAGER CALLS ME THAT EVENING AND REQUEST I LOOK AT THE TRUCK WHILE IT IS ON THE LIFT SO I CAN SEE THE FRAME FOR MYSELF AS THE FUEL SYSTEM WOULD BE THE LEAST OF MY CONCERNS ONCE I SAW THE FRAME. THE REAR OF THE FRAME FROM THE REAR SPRING HANGER BACK IS ROTTED AWAY ON A 12-YEAR-OLD TRUCK THAT HAS NO BODY RUST AND SOME RUST ON THE OTHER PARTS OF THE FRAME AS TO BE EXPECTED FOR THE AGE. I HAVE ATTACHED PICTURES OF THE SPRING HANGER DETACHED FROM THE FRAME DUE TO THE LACK OF STRUCTURAL SUPPORT AND PICTURES OF THE BAD FRAME SECTION AND THE REST OF THE FRAME ALONG WITH A PICTURE OF THE TRUCK. I HAVE OWNED THE TRUCK SINCE IT WAS NEW AND TAKEN CARE OF IT AND AM TROUBLED THAT A STRUCTURAL ITEM SUCH AS A FRAME ONLY IN ONE SECTION, THE SAME SECTION, ON BOTH SIDES IS IN SUCH BAD SHAPE THAT THE MECHANIC RECOMMENDED THAT I REPLACE THE FRAME. I KNOW I LIVE IN AN AREA THAT RECEIVES SNOW AND THE...

2005 CREW CAB GMC CANYON Z85 SLE - LOCALIZED FRAME DETERIORATION DUE TO EXCESSIVE RUST COMPLETELY THROUGH THE BOX FRAME. NO OTHER AREAS ON FRAME DISPLAY MORE THAN SURFACE RUST. PRESENT FROM DRIVERS SIDE REAR DOOR TO ABOVE THE FRAME ELEVATION CHANGE, INCLUDING THE MOUNTING BRACKET FOR THE REAR LEAF SPRING. HOLES AND SEAMS COMPLETELY OPEN IN AFFECTED AREAS. STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY COMPROMISED AT JOINT OF CAB TO THE BED OF TRUCK. VEHICLE IS STILL FUNCTIONAL BUT DAMAGE TO THIS AREA DOES NOT ALLOW FOR TRUCK TO BE USED AS INTENDED. ANY SIGNIFICANT WEIGHT IN BED MAY CAUSE FRAME TO COLLAPSE. NOT RELATED TO ANY SPECIFIC INCIDENT. NO FAILURE TO OPERATE AT THIS TIME.

MY TRUCK IS EXHIBITING AN ISSUE IN WHICH THE GM PASSLOCK SYSTEM DISABLES THE FUEL AND ENGINE BECAUSE OF SOME MALFUNCTION. THIS SYSTEM IS INTENDED TO DISABLE THE FUEL SYSTEM ON A VEHICLE IF IT DETECTS THAT THE IGNITION HAS BEEN TAMPERED WITH OR IN IMPROPER KEY HAS BEEN USED TO TRY AND START THE VEHICLE. MY ISSUE IS THAT INTERMITTENTLY WHEN I TRY TO START MY TRUCK WITH THE FACTORY KEY, THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM ENGAGES AND DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO START MY TRUCK. I HAVE TO WAIT 10 MINUTES IN ORDER FOR THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM LIGHT TO TURN OFF ON THE DASHBOARD. SOMETIMES MY TRUCK WILL START AFTER THIS 10 MINUTE LOCKOUT PERIOD. IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE WHERE MY TRUCK WILL FAIL TO START AFTER THE FIRST LOCKOUT PERIOD AND I HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER 10 MINUTES. ONCE THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM ALLOWS ME TO START THE ENGINE, MY TRUCK RUNS FINE WITH NO ISSUES. IN MY OPINION, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. IN ANY EMERGENCY SITUATION, I WOULD HOPE TO DEPEND ON MY TRUCK STARTING. THIS MALFUNCTIONING PASSLOCK SYSTEM...

HIT 3 DEER IN HIGH SPEED COLLISION. MY AIR BAGS DIDN'T FUNCTION. THEN RESEARCH ONLINE SHOWED I HAVE TIKATA AIRBAGS. THEN I NOTICED MY BRAKES IF WET OR HAVE ICE ON ROTORS, WHEN BRAKING, I GET TERRIBLE SQUEAKING NOISE AND FRONT END WILL SHIMMY OR VIBRATE. REAR BRAKES TOO. AND MY POWER STEERING STARTED MAKING NOISE, LIKE A RUBBING SOUND A FEW MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT TRUCK, THOUGH NO FLUID LOSS OR STIFFNESS IN STEERING. I KNOW THESE AIR BAGS ARE DANGEROUS, METAL PARTS HAVE KILLED A FEW PEOPLE. WHY WASN'T I NOTIFIED BY AUTOMAKER ABOUT WHAT AIRBAGS WERE INSTALLED IN MY TRUCK!? I NEED FIXED. I DO A LOT OF MOUNTAIN DRIVING. I WOULD LIKE THEM TO WORK PROPERLY. AND THESE STRANGE NOISES REALLY BUG ME. I CAN'T BE BREAKING DOWN DEEP INTO MOUNTAIN ROADS WHEN I WORK OR TRAVEL. MUCH HIGHWAY TRAVELING TOO. THE CRUISE CONTROL HAS NEVER WORKED, SINCE TWO WEEKS AFTER BUYING TRUCK. IF COMING UP TO HILLS WHEN SET, THEN AS YOU DRIVE UP & DOWN MORE HILLS, IT WILL SELF EXCELLERATE! NOT SLOW DOWN ON DECL...
