| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: First of all, i didn't know what to put in the "# of failures" field since the problem occurs many times each day and we just bought the vehicle less than a month ago, so obviously it's going to occur thousands of times unless fixed. we bought our 1999 chevy tahoe the end of august this year from a private seller. when we picked the vehicle up, we were coming to a stop at a stop sign on a city street and felt the anti lock breaks kick in. this has occurred since the day we got the vehicle and continues to occur each time we drive it. i looked up recalls on our vehicle and saw that one had just been issued for unwanted anti lock break system activation, which is exactly what is happening to us. i looked into the recall further only to find that 14 "rust belt" states are including in the recall and we- here in minnesota where our cars rust from all the salt we use to help with all the snow we get every year- are not considered to be a "rust belt" state. i called gm/chevrolet to discuss the fact that we are experiencing the same thing that the recall was issued for and that we are not included, they said their is nothing they can do about it since we are not one of the 14 states. so now, i am filing a complaint with you hoping to get somewhere. i think they should be including a lot more states then the 14 they chose now. *nm |
