John3low - sounds like you and I have the exact same vehicle. I am/have experienced everything you describe also. My truck is a 2003 - bought brand new - and since I've been the only owner I can guarentee it has only been treated with care. Sure, it's 9 years old, but I only have 57,000 miles on it. I would get carpal tunnel syndrom if I was to try to type everything that has gone wrong with it in this reply. Actually just put WELL over $1,000 into it last month on what some others in this string described. My transmission cooler and lines had to be replaced because they were rusted completely out; while replacing them, the mechaning noticed that my brake lines were ready to fall off and had to replace 30 FEET of brake lines; and the power steering lines and cooler rusted complety off the vehicle and needed replaced. This is just the most recent in a LOOOOONG string of trips to the mechanic. I'm about to get my own personal parking spot at the mechanics garage.

#10 of 12 random electrical outages by smedsleas

We have a 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic Crew Cab, bought it new in 2006. Our problems started with the loss of electronics when the lights for the heat controls went out on one side. We lost the chimes for the seat belt on the front seat. This was followed by speakers going out passenger side first then back speakers. Finally the radio started coming on muted or regular and then lose volume or sound muted (it does it randomly). Our A/c started next and we would move or replace the relay and the pump would then come on (no problem with fan). Last night the driver's side controls for the locks and windows stopped working and the chimes for key in the ignition are not working. This was random. Jiggling the fuses in the dash returned two out of three times. The lights in the controls were out when the controls were not working. I know this is not a 2500 but the problems sound similar. Any suggestions as to what to start. Thank you

Hello smedsleas,
 
If you're looking to do some DIY work on this, we hope you get some great feedback! Unfortunately, my access to technical information in limited; however, if you decided you wanted to get this checked out at a dealership and wanted for us to work with you through that process, please email us at socialmediagm.com with more information (including your name and contact information, a summary of the situation, the last 8 of your VIN and mileage, and the name of your dealership).
