2000 GMC SONOMA Recalls (4)

Campaign:
99V220000 on 08/16/1999
Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic:antilock
Manufactured:
02/28/1999 - 07/30/1999
Affected:
3,947
Defect:
Vehicle description: s -trucks equipped with 2 wheel drive. these vehicles may have had the right-hand antilock brake system (abs) module feed pipe and/or brake crossover pipe tube nuts tightened without seating the pipe-flared-ends enough to withstand normal assembly and vehicle inputs without partially unseating. this does not comply with requirements of fmvss no. 105, "hydraulic service brake normal, emergency, and park braking performance."
Consequence:
If this occurred, the seating seal could be broken during vehicle assembly, or from early road inputs or brake fluid cycling, and a leak could occur increasing the brake stopping distance.
Correction:
Dealers will inspect the brake pipe union for signs of brake fluid, and if necessary, install a new brake pipe union.
Notes:
Owner notification began august 20, 1999.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.also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).

Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic:antilock
Manufactured:
07/31/1999 - 08/30/1999
Affected:

Defect:
Vehicle description: light duty pickup trucks equipped with 4-wheel disc brakes. some of these vehicles have an antilock brake system (abs) motor containing an out-of-specification spring clip. this clip could allow the motor bearing to become misaligned. if misalignment occurs, eventually the abs would be non-functional.
Consequence:
The base brakes would remain fully functional, but the dynamic rear proportioning (drp) system, which optimizes front to rear brake balance, would become inoperative.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the brake pressure module valve assembly.
Notes:
