Anyone been effected by GM truck recall!

Is it as bad as news report? Share your experience if recall did involve a vehicle you own. I think media loves a recall! Please share!

There is a very small number of Chevy and I believe GMC trucks that they are so worried about that the company is going out to your house and picking them up. The report I heard on the national news was that the trucks were all brand new and the number was very small.

Think I read that there were only 57 trucks involved. Don't recall what the issue is.

I seriously believe that GM is gun shy and recalling anything that may remotely resemble a hazard after the ignition switch debacle.

It's too bad that GM never admitted to the 1999-2006 Sierras/Silverados in which hundreds (if not more) brake lines rusted and blew out. According to GM, "it isn't a problem." Tell my wife that since, my brake lines blew out on two consecutive years of pulling the Monty and trying to stop with 22,000 pounds. Also, $2000 later with hand-formed stainless steel lines, GM decides to NOW make a Teflon-coated brake line kit. The regional representative won't even consider that the lines were defective.
