Consumer Description

HAND BRAKE FAILURE! HAND BRAKE WAS NOTICED TO NOT BE FUNCTIONING AT 30K WARRANTY SERVICE. SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPLACED BRAKE SHOES. BRAKE ONLY FUNCTIONED FOR 3 MONTHS AND BEGAN TO FAIL AGAIN. I THEN REPLACED THE BRAKE SHOES AGAIN MYSELF SO THAT I COULD PASS INSPECTION AND HAVE AGAIN BEEN WORN OUT IN JUST A FEW MONTHS. I WAS THEN MADE AWARE OF TSB #02-05-26-002 WHICH EVENTUALLY BECAME TSB# 02-05-002A. IT SEEMS THAT GM IS AWARE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THEIR RETAINER CLIP DESIGN AND HAVE DEVELOPED A REPLACEMENT, BUT I BELIEVE THAT THE COST SHOULD BE THEIRS AND NOT THE CONSUMERS. I HAVE PLACED NOTES IN FORUMS SO THAT OTHERS DO THE SAME. *JB
