1999 Gmc Sierra 1500 Sle Extended Cab Pickup 3-door 5.3l on 2040-cars
Ottsville, Pennsylvania, United States
For sale is this clean 1999 GMC Sierra pickup truck. It was purchased in 2007 with 125,000 miles and has had its oil changed every ~3,000 miles. Since 2008, this truck has had piston slap on cold start-ups. This noise goes away after initial warm-up - see video - and otherwise runs/shifts/sounds good. Within the last 25,000 miles, the spark plugs/wires, fuel pump, heater core, disk brake rotors, brake pads, parking brake shoes and backing plates, rear (chrome) bumper, air conditioning compressor, and belts have ALL been replaced - spark plug wires and backing plates with OEM parts. The tires were replaced roughly 12,000 miles ago (in 2011). All brake lines, including one rear hose, were replaced two months ago.
[From above] - This vehicle was in a front-end collision during 2011 which deployed the air bags - no longer installed in the steering wheel or dash. The front bumper, grill, hood, right front fender, and side mirrors were replaced. The right front fog light is missing its lens. The side mirrors do NOT adjust electrically. The frame/front end were checked by an experienced frame shop and interpreted as square/tight/aligned. A large scrape still exists on the right rear quarter panel (from a street sign). The tow/haul mode does NOT work - wire visible through rubber boot is broken (again). The gas gauge has a delayed response to fuel added to the tank; it does, eventually, after several miles/start-ups, read correctly. There is rust showing on both rear fender wells and in the bed - where at least two visible, dime-size holes exist. The seat on the driver's side does NOT recline - handle is missing. There are minor scratches in the paint - SEE PICTURES. A new PA inspection/emissions (through 1/15) will be performed this Tuesday - 11/26 - ensuring that it will be ready for you. Although not to be addressed in the state inspection, the mechanic who replaced the brake lines (a couple months ago) commented that the fuel line should be replaced; it shows signs of corrosion. See the PICTURE of the original window sticker for complete details about the features/options on this truck - including (comfortable) hi-back bucket seats, an off-road chassis equipment package, and a heavy duty trailering package. I must say that over the last 6 years/50,000 miles, this has been a valuable/reliable truck for me. I simply do not have the need for it any longer and am looking for a vehicle with much greater than this truck's ~15 mpg fuel economy.

GM recalling 521,817 cars in two campaigns
Tue, May 12 2015General Motors is issuing two, separate recalls covering a total of 521,817 vehicles worldwide. The larger campaign covers 468,887 units of the 2011-2012 Chevrolet Malibu. Specifically, 437,045 of these are in the US, and the rest are outside the country. In these sedans, a steel cable that connects the seat belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate. GM knows of 36 claims about the problem but only one minor injury. According to The Detroit News, this happened when a taxi driver hit his head. To fix things, dealers will replace the "outboard lap mounting bracket," which will move the tensioner rearward. They'll also inspect and if necessary replace the steel cable and lap pretensioner. In the second campaign, 52,930 examples the 2015 Chevy Colorado and 2015 GMC Canyon have seat frame attachment hooks that were installed incorrectly during assembly. GM hasn't received any reports of crashes, injuries, or fatalities about this problem. Dealers will inspect the affected trucks and repair as necessary. GM spokesperson Alan Adler told Autoblog that he didn't yet have a specific date when affected owners would receive official mailings about either of these recalls. GM Statement General Motors is recalling 48,309 2015 model year Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon midsize pickup trucks in the U.S. because certain seat frame attachment hooks were not properly attached to the vehicle body during assembly. Dealers will inspect the potentially affected seats for proper installation and repair if necessary. GM knows of no crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 52,930 including 4,620 vehicles sold in Canada. General Motors is recalling 437,045, 2011-2012 model year Chevrolet Malibus in the U.S. because the flexible steel cable that connects the safety belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate over time as a result of occupant movement in the seat. Dealers will replace the outboard lap mounting bracket to relocate the tensioner slightly rearward. Dealers will inspect the cable and, if necessary, replace the lap pretensioner. GM knows of 36 claims, no crashes or fatalities and one minor injury reportedly related to the condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 468,887 including Canada, Mexico and exports.
Chevy Colorado configurator goes live as GM touts fuel efficiency
Wed, 03 Sep 2014While the news of today is destined to be dominated by a certain plucky Japanese roadster, props to Chevrolet and GMC for announcing its own significant bit of news about their newest pickup twins, the midsize Colorado and Canyon. The two GM-owned brands announced that the twins' 3.6-liter V6 will return up to 26 miles per gallon on the freeway.
To get such efficiency from the 305-horsepower mill, you'll need to live without four-wheel drive and be okay with a max city fuel economy of 18 mpg. The combined rating for the 2WD model sits at 21 mpg. Adding four-wheel drive drops the city and combined ratings by one mpg, while the highway rating dips from 26 to 24 mpg.
As for the twins' eagerly anticipated 2.8-liter diesel engine, it's destined for model year 2016, meaning we've got a ways to go before its efficiency and output are certified.
Chauffeur attacks motorist in road rage incident
Thu, Apr 7 2016A California man was the victim of an intense and violent road rage attack on the 405 freeway on Tuesday, but when the police were called they told the driver to shake it off. Shahnam Asbaghi told KTLA that the altercation began when a GMC Yukon private car began tailgating him. "This limousine Yukon driver was just tailgating me the whole time since when I got onto the 405 North," Asbaghi told reporters. "It was so bad I actually got scared and nervous so I exited early." When Asbaghi exited the freeway, the Yukon followed and rear ended him at the bottom of the ramp. "He just rammed me with his car at probably 25, 30 miles per hour," said Asbaghi. "When he hit me he got out of his car, came around to the driver's side and punched my window four or five times. Then he ran back to his car, got in his car, and drove away." Startled, Asbaghi followed his assailant in an attempt to get the Yukon's license plate number. After a quick chase, the Yukon stopped near Sepulveda Boulevard and Sherman Way where the driver got out of the truck, retrieved a long, unidentified item from the rear cargo area, and attacked Asbaghi's car again. Video shot by Asbaghi shows the chauffeur striking the driver's side window with the object, tossing it back in the Yukon, then leaving the scene. Asbaghi called 911, but the police weren't impressed. "Because my head wasn't smashed, because the window wasn't smashed, no harm no foul is what they told me," Asbaghi told KTLA. The cops did make the drivers exchange information, but no arrests were made. The Los Angeles Police Department is now looking into the incident to make sure they handled the situation correctly. The day after the attack, L.A. Private Car announced via Twitter that they fired the angry Chauffeur after reviewing the footage.
