This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 1995 Chevrolet S10. While driving at approximately 15 to 20 mph, the contact depressed the brake pedal but to no avail. The brakes would not engage and the contact depressed the brake pedal several times before the vehicle came to a stop. The contact stated the failure would occur intermittently on several occasions. The vehicle had not yet been taken to the dealer to be diagnosed. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 170,000 and the current mileage was 190,000.
Brakes have failed twice, almost causing serious injury. Cannot find dealer to fix asap, plus had towed 3 times in regard to this problem. **** dimsii IVOQ entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis*****724072.
