I found a safety recall of 1.4 million reports of brake failure,with kelsy-have parts ( kcb4 and ebc4 units).why if I had to spend over $ 1,100.00 to have my truck repaired was I not notified????? #2 my emergency flashers button is jammed and the dealer wants 485.00 to repair. I had the windshield wiper repaired. Why is my emergency equipment failing? And there is no recall notice!!!! #3 my emergency brake cable and handle-both broke. How much is a dealer going to rip me off to repair. …”
