Consumer Description

2001 CHEVROLET SILVERADO PICKUP EMERGENCY BRAKE FAILURE. RECALL DOESN'T INCLUDE TRUCKS WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS, BUT THEY HAVE THE SAME BRAKE SYSTEMS. MY EMERGENCY BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING ALTHOUGH I HAVE ONLY USED THEM A COUPLE OF TIMES IN FOUR YEARS. ALSO, AFTER QUESTIONING OTHER PEOPLE WITH SAME TRUCKS THEY FIND OUT THAT THEIR BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING EITHER.*AK
