Rear brake line corroded thru and failed causing low speed accident. No injuries thank god. But it was a bad experience not being able to stop a 5000lb truck at any speed, I will attest to that!

I have a 1994 chevy 1500 truck that I have found to have the same problems as are involved in a chevy recall but my truck is not included. It has exactly the same problems as the ones involved in your recall. How ever I am required to pay for this fix. I do not believe you vehicles have been looked at closely enough for all with this problem to have been included. Our wiper circuit board is not working just as all the ones that are covered. We are very dissatisfied with service at chevrolet.
