Consumer Description

ON FRIDAY, 5 FEBRUARY 2010, I DROVE MY 1993 CHEVROLET CORVETTE AND THE BRAKES SEEMED TO BE FUNCTIONING NORMALLY. ON SATURDAY, 6 FEBRUARY 2010, I DROVE THE SAME CAR AGAIN, AND IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THAT ITS BRAKES HAD LOST THEIR POWER BOOST-IN EFFECT, THEY WERE MANUAL BRAKES, MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP QUICKLY. UPON INSPECTION, I OBSERVED THAT AN APPROXIMATELY 2" LONG CRACK HAD DEVELOPED IN THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER CASING (WHICH IS PLASTIC). THIS IS NOT REPAIRABLE, AND A REPLACEMENT PART IS ABOUT $250. LABOR TO INSTALL A REPLACEMENT IS ABOUT $200. I HAVE NOT BOUGHT A REPLACEMENT OR HAD ANY WORK DONE, BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD IT RIGHT NOW. *TW
