| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Rear turn signal lights, brake lamps and head lamps experience permanent loss. sometimes when the vehicle becomes wet the cruise control stops functioning, the power door locks stop working, the power windows stop working, and the power rear view mirrors stop working. also there is periodic non-functioning of the remote key entry. as of 11/10/2006 the rear tail lights have been replaced twice and one head lamp at owners expense. currently a third brake light requires replacement. on nov. 10, 2006 i took the truck in for repair an mentioned the recall on this particular problem. the dealership said that gm has not issued a recall and that the owner would have to pay for the repairs. i am aware of the "nhtsa campaign number 06v-139" and gm's april 26, 2006 response to mr. daniel c. smith, associate administrator for enforcement, nhtsa. although the recall references only the brake lamps and possibility of cruise control failure, i believe the problem is further exasperated with the other afore mentioned electrical problems. consequences present themselves in the form of distractions to the driver when trying to drive and make adjustments to the following electrical componets when they fail to function: door mounted rear view mirrors, lowering of windows in order to pay for highway tolls, rear brake lights and turn signal lights fail, and reduced head lamp failures. *jb |
