Got my registration form to update my tags and I saw the comments at the bottom say this vehicle has a recall.. so I decided to call the dealer to set up a appointment to get it fixed when I called the dealer, they said that they didnât have the part so they will contact me as soon as possible so I waited almost a week no response at all so I decided to call them back to find out what was going on with the update. they claim that the part is not available anymore because it is a older vehicle so they need to talk to his manager or someone higher at the dealers to find out how they can do this to get my recall fixed so they told me they will call me again as soon as possible Other week pass

I WAS TRAVELING DOWN A STEEP HILL ON DRY PAVEMENT AND MY VEHICLE WAS PICKING UP SPEED SO I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR. I STARTED FRANTICALLY PUMPING THE BRAKES AS I NOTICED THE CROSSING GUARD GOING DOWN ON THE TRAIN TRACKS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL AND STILL NO BRAKES AT ALL...AFTER REALIZING I WAS COMPLETELY WITHOUT ANY BRAKE PEDAL I IMMEDIATELY DOWNSHIFTED TO 1ST GEAR WHICH SLOWED THE VEHICLE DOWN AND I REMEMBERED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND I THEN JAMMED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR WHICH STOPPED ME 20 FT FROM HITTING THE SIDE OF A CARGO TRAIN...AS A GUY WHO REPAIRS MECHANICAL SYSTEMS FOR A LIVING I WAS TOTALLY FLOORED THAT THE BRAKE SYSTEM COULD F
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500 HD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT BOTH THE GEAR SELECTOR AND ODOMETER INDICATORS WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHO WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE TECHNICIAN ADVISED THE CONTACT TO ADJUST THE BRIGHTNESS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL TO PREVENT THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND PROVIDED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,400.
BRAKES FAILED TO RESPOND AND ALMOST WENT OVER A RESTRAINING WALL TWO TIMES. ON OTHER OCCASIONS WHEN BRAKING, THE BRAKES WOULD RELEASE AND I WOULD HAVE TO SLOWLY REAPPLY BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN OR PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THIS COULD BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IF I WAS TOWING MY HORSE TRAILER. HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANY RECALLS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. *TR
