ABS does not work, light is on the dash. Airbag lights are on the dash and not sure if they are working, tailgate does not latch closed. Key does not always want to turn and we need to move it back and forth before it will start the vehicle.

2007 Chevy Silverado brake lines rusted out. Luckily I wasn't driving. Noticed while car was parked. Oil all over the ground. Chevy charged me 480 for new brake lines. Ridiculous. I have had cars 20 years old and lines never rusted. Dealer admitted they aren't stainless steel from factory. People can die from this if they are driving, lines leak, they have no brakes.

ABS sensor reads incorrectly and triggers the ABS system to kick in every time the brakes are used, causing the brake pedal to rumble and giving the sensation of brake failure when the pedal goes soft under your foot. This is worse when turning left. Extra distance is required for braking at all times. ABS warning light comes on at random times for no apparent reason.

My 2007 Silverado has the same brake problem that was a recall on older model Silverado's. the NHTSA campaign number for the previous recall was 05V379000. It appears the Canadian transportation board ordered a recall for the 2007 models but the NHTSA has not. Is this something being looked into?
