MY RV LOST BRAKES AND POWER STEERING BECAUSE OF A BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILURE. I TOOK IT TO THE RV IN FOR REPAIR AND I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO REPLACEMENT PART. THEY TOLD ME, THE ONLY WAY THEY COULD GET TO THE BRAKES AND POWER STEERING, WAS TO BY-PASS THE BRAKE ACTUATOR. ONCE THEY DID THAT, THE PARK FEATURE NO LONGER WORKED. I BELIEVE THIS MAY BE A SAFETY PROBLEM AND CHEVROLET CORPORATION SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR CORRECTING IT. ...UPDATED 10/22/14 *BF

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.

Most recent recall on file: Aug 20, 1993. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
