Consumer Description

CHEVROLET P-30 MOTOR HOME - FAILURE OF AUTOMATIC PARKING BRAKE. LOSS OF SYSTEM PRESSURE CAUSED SUDDEN LOCK UP OF REAR WHEELS. SINCE ORIGINAL FAILURE OF PRESSURE MAINTENANCE SWITCH (LEAK) I CARRY A SPARE WITH ME AT ALL TIMES. SWITCH HAS FAILED THREE TIMES. THE ACTUATION SWITCH LOCATED NEAR THE BASE OF THE STEERING COLUMN FAILED ONCE AND ALSO CAUSED DRIVE LINE LOCKUP (THIS OCCURRED ON AN INTERNATIONAL BRIDGE BETWEEN CANADA AND THE US CAUSING ME TO BLOCK TRAFFIC FOR CONSIDERABLE TIME). FORTUNATELY, NONE OF THE FAILURES OCCURRED UNDER CONDITIONS WHERE THE SUDDEN STOP RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. *LA
