NHTSA complaint #11397352, filed 2021-02, 600 miles“On september 24, 2020, Chevrolet issued a recall for a possible contaminated brake booster module on numerous 2020 vehicles. This to me is a serious matter when it deals with the vehicles braking system. There have been customers online who have talked about this issue, with one customer stated that his brakes did fail and it was difficult for him to stop.
