“Per my mechanic, there was a problem and supposedly a recall regarding the emergency brake cable cutting the wiring harness for the rear ABS brake system.. I never received anything on this, and I was wondering if I submit the bill to someone at Chevrolet, if I can get reimbursed.”

NHTSA complaint #741369, filed 2001-02

“I'm sorry that I can't be more descriptive about this, but I am a woman what do you expect? Anyways, I have had my front brake pads replaced about 3 times now! I just had all new brakes and the rotors turned 4 months ago and the dealership said on my last brake inspection, 12/4 /00, that I only have 40% left on the front and 70% on the back! How can this be? I could understand this if I had a gizillion miles on my car and I ran the hell out of it but 35,000 miles and 3 brake jobs?! What's wrong with this picture? …”

NHTSA complaint #737536, filed 2000-12

“Brakes failed 3 times without warning. The first time mechanic replaced master cylinder that he says was leaking. The next day brakes failed again & computer box next to master cylinder was replaced. Brakes worked for one month & without warning, went down to floor again. Computer has to be replaced again & we are in fear of driving it since there is no warning when brakes fail.”

NHTSA complaint #717662, filed 2000-01

“Consumer was driving approx 35-40 MPH, went to hit brakes & received no response, no brakes action, no warning light, put brakes to floor, no response. In order to slow down and avoid an accident, had to pull emergency brake which caused the vehicle to do a 180 degree spin, the vehicle has no prior brake problem history. Weather was sunny/dry.”

NHTSA complaint #816446, filed 1997-09

“Consumer is complaiing of four sets of brake pads had to be replaced within 58000 miles of wear,even though dealer replaced & repaired them without cost to the consumer because warranty still being ineffect. But this condition still needs to be investigated because it is not a normal condition. Dealer notified.”
