Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A 2000 SUBURBAN IN FEBRUARY 2004 NAD THE PARKING BRAKE WAS NOT WORKING THEN. I HAVE ADJUSTED THE CABLE TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT POSSIBLE AND STILL NO HELP. FROM THE RESEARCH I HAVE DOWN THIS APPEARS TO BE A TREMENDOUSLY COMMON PROBLEM, WITH NO FIX FROM GM OTHER TO REPAIR THE PARKING BRAKE AT THE OWNERS EXPENSE EVERY 5K TO 20K MILES. *NM
