| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I received from the chevrolet motor division a letter stating that they had received reports of crashes that may be related to the maintenance of the auto-apply parking brake. the auto-park brake has a tendency to apply itself as the vehicle is crusing down the highway. this has occured on my motor home and also on two other rv owner's of chevrolet chassis that i have spoken with. i am sure there are other owners who had similar problems with this auto- parking brake. this is a very dangerous situation that needs to be corrected by the manufacturer. they should offer a recall on this problem as soon as possible before someone is seriously injured or killed in an accident. |
