2005 GMC Sierra 2500HD review from North America
"This truck was made to pull"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My power steering gear box went bad at 16000 miles.
General comments?
This is a very powerful truck.
Unfortunately all of that power requires a lot of gas.
There is a recall on the power steering box.
If you have one, get it fixed before it breaks.
A broke gear could lead to disaster on the road.
The GMC dealership was very helpful and replaced the tailgate latch when I took it in for the gear box leak.
There is also a recall on the tailgate latch.
