What owners wrote

While driving at high speed 60MPH the engine check light comes on. Then the vehicle loses power steering and brakes completely. This is the fourth time it happened. *slc

September 1996

Egr valve continually fails (opens) , the engine looses vacume and brakes fail to function. Since 1999 the egr has been replaced seven (7) times and is currently in a failure mode. In spite of the fact that there have been service bullitens issued with regard to this problem GMC has refused to address the problem. To date over two thousand dollars has been spent replacing egr valves. When driving I am in constant fear of the egr valve failing and coversly, the brakes failing.
