Reported on Apr 26, 2008
| THE GM P30 AUTOMATIC PARKING BRAKE ON MY 1994 RV FAILED WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD CAUSING ME TO A FULL STOP IN THE TRAVEL LANE. THE RV WOULD NOT MOVE. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IN THE DRIVE SHAFT JUST WENT ON AND WILL NOT SHUT OFF. I HAVE READ THIS IS NOT UNCOMMON TO THIS TYPE OF UNIT. MY RV HAS LESS THAT 40,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT. GM DID A RECALL ON ONLY ONE COMPANY'S UNITS BUT LEFT THE REST OF US OUT IN THE COLD WITH AN LARGELY UN REPAIRABLE SITUATION. *TR | |
