| Description of the problem | There is a recall #04004. "brake hydro-boost relief valve" but my vin# is not on the list. Over 64,000 vehicles were affected and there is a "#1" on the mounting surface. All of the units detected a machining error in the relief bore cavity for modules produced from a machine identified as "fadal #1" this can and has caused my 2004 chevrolet tahoe to have no power assist with my steering and no power brakes. I have found myself holding two feet on the brake pedal at a red light. And can not operate in small spaces such as parking garages and certain parking stalls. I wanted to know if there is something more that i can do in regards to this particular recall and find out if there is some mistake as far as my vin# not being recognized but yet experiencing the same problems. My vehicle has become inoperable for that it is unsafe to drive with the no power assist and could cause a major accident... I want to see about receiving some aid in all this. This has been a issue since august of 2019. It has caused me to lose work for a lack of transportation. My credit has fallen behind because of not being able to make it to work and spending my savings on trying to guess at what is wrong with it. For it is my only vehicle. Now that the covid-19 is here is a double whamy! In dire straits - cali lovin my 4x4 - [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
