THERE WAS A MANUFACTURER'S RECALL IN AUGUST 20, 1999 FOR 2000 CHEVY BLAZERS: THE BRAKE PIPE UNION FITTINGS THAT FEED THE VARIOUS BRAKE SYSTEM COMPONENTS MAY LEAK AND CAUSE A LOSS OF BRAKING FUNCTION AND NEED AN ADDITIONAL STOPPING TIME. DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE BRAKE PIPE UNION FOR SIGNS OF LEAKING BRAKE FLUID AND REPLACE THE UNION IF NECESSARY. OUR VEHICLE IS A 1999 BLAZER THAT APPEARS TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT CHEVROLET CLAIMS THERE WASN'T A RECALL ISSUED FOR OUR VEHICLE. WE THINK IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. OUR VEHICLE DOESN'T STOP WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED, BUT NEEDS A LONGER STOPPING TIME AND DISTANCE. IT IS AN UNSAFE CONDITION. ORIGINAL RECALL FROM THE NHTSA MANUFACTURER'
