| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: From november, 2004 until fixed in march, 2005 had repetitive episodes where anti-lock brakes came on at low speeds of around 7-8 mph. this led to several very near accidents on the military base i work, parking lots and on the city roads. luckily no one was ultimately injured before the problem was figured out to be the anti-lock brake system sensors. they were fixed by dealer at price of $598.40. a recall was released on this problem in canada and in the us (gm recall 05068) in december, 2005. this vehicle was purchased from o'connor chevrolet in rochester, ny in november, 2003. a claim was filed with chevrolet (file #1-409354542) and was denied because the vehicle was not purchased by me in canada and i didn't live in canada. this vehicle was purchased from a chevrolet dealer in new york state with a now known defect that nearly caused several accidents to me and my family and now chevrolet will not pay for the repair stating it is not covered by the us recall. if it is the same defect in all the vehicles and the truck was purchased from a chevy dealer it should be honored. chevy nearly killed me and my kids several time by their negligence in manufacturing and should pay for the repair needed to fix their faulty product. *jb |
