Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I bought my 1999 checy silverado new. the brakes were never as good as the vehicle i had traded in or in fact drove at work for my employer. i took my vehicle back to the dealer, mckee auto several times. the service advisors would not log my complaint or attempt to repair the vehicle. i have run several stoplights because of the lousy brakes, luckily there haven't been any accidents. last october the rear brakes went out on this vehicle. i replaced the rear pads and rotors while the front brakes look the same as new. this leads me to believe maybe they aren't hardly being used. i thought there was supposed to have been a recall for early models of this vehicle, but was never notified. *nm
