“Since you just issued the recall on GM pickup trucks, I would like to let you know I have the same problem with my Gmc Savana 15-seater 2001 van. I bought the vehicle new in 2001. It now has around 56,000 miles on it. Problem: sometimes the brake light stays on, in which case the cruise control doesn't work. Sometimes the front passenger electric window doesn't work during these times. I learned about the recall from msnbc, reading the news online. Since you didn't have internet on your referral source choices, I said newspaper as being the closest thing.”
