Consumer Description
I am writing in concern to a brake pump malfunction and air bag sensor failure. The vehicle is available for inspection and has been inspected/confirmed by dealerships. The brake pump is bad and falls under the recall by GM but because it was over the mileage threshold, it didn’t qualify. The brakes don’t work well at all. The air bag sensor in the passenger seat went bad and now shut off all my airbags and GM won’t add my vehicle to the recalls they have already issued on other vehicles for the same issues. My safety is at risk with my lack of air bags for us. Others’ safety is risk due to the bad brake pump that I cannot guarantee will continue working, especially upon an immediate need to brake in any emergency situation. I have contact the manufacturer 2 separate times and they refuse to include my vehicle in their safety recalls. This is a serious matter. Someone could get hurt or worse. I had no warnings or indications that these were issues until they became one. I had to get quotes of $1200 to get these two issues resolved and don’t understand how this is a known problem but they refuse to help me in any way. I’m not asking for a replacement truck or engine. Just functioning safety features!!! The truck is only 5 years old.
