Consumer Description

I OWN A 2002 CHEVROLET AVALANCHE, THAT DID NOT PASS INSPECTION DUE TO THE PARKING BRAKE NO HOLDING. THIS OCCURRED WITH OUT WARNING SINCE MY LAST INSPECTION. I VISTED THE DEALER AND THEY ASKED FOR MILEAGE AND STATED IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THERE IS NO WARRNING SYSTEM FOR THIS PROBLEM. AND THAT THIS IS A DESIGN FLOW FOUND ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS WILL COST ME CLOSE TO $800 FOR BRAKE SHOES DRUM / ROTOR ASSEMBLY AND BRAKE PADS I BELIEVE THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED . *AK
