Consumer Description

FOR THE SECOND YEAR IN A ROW MY 2000 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN HAS FAILED THE TEXAS SAFETY INSPECTION BECAUSE THE PARKING BRAKE FAILED. A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP REPAIRED IT LAST YEAR AND IT FAILED AGAIN. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE BRAKE HAS TO BE USED REGULARLY TO KEEP IT WORKING AND WAS CHARGED FOR THE REPAIR. THERE ARE NO INSTRUCTIONS IN THE MANUAL STATING THIS.
