Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 1997 chevy suburban with a 7.4 engine. for the most part its been a good vehicle, but the brakes are another story. the suburban has been through 2 sets of front brakes, and none in the rear. being concerned, the 3rd mechanic to really spend time figuring out the problem, found out the brake pressure modulator valve has malfunctioned. $800 for replacement. doing a little research, gm had recalled this part on several of there 2000 suv models. contacted the gm customer service line, and they told me that it is an "old vehicle" and gm will not do anything about it. so i guess gm's safety systems are only good for 10 years. this will be my last gm vehicle i will ever own. *jb
