Consumer Description

AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT THE VEHICLE HAS A HARD PEDAL AND WOULD NOT STOP. IT APPEARED TO BE FROM THE BOOSTER NOT HOLDING THE VACUUM. THERE WAS A BULITEN #09-05-22-001A THAT ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE BUT IT REQUIRES AN ADDITIONAL VACUUM PUMP TO BE ADDED TO THE VEHICLE THAT WAS NOT IN THE ORIGINAL DESIGN. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY GM AND NOT THE CUSTOMER SINCE IT REQUIRES A NEW ADDITIONAL PART TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT DUE TO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE VEHICLE.
