This vehicle was rebuilt and the dealer tells me it has a "warranty block" on the VIN. I understand why this is done but I am told that this also blocks any recall campaign work from being done under warranty. This vehicle has not had any campaign work done to it. Is it legal for GM to not pay for the repairs to the brake system and seat belt system on this truck?
