I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED MY CRUISE CONTROL WOULDN'T COME ON. I FIGURED IT WAS A FUSE AND WOULD GET TO IT AFTER WORK. WHEN I PULLED INTO WORK A COWORKER WHO WAS BEHIND ME TOLD ME I HAD NO BRAKE LIGHTS. CHECKED ALL FUSES, ALL WERE FINE. TOOK THE TRUCK TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE BRAKE SWITCH AND/OR WIRES HAD BURNT UP AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I PAID OVER $500 FOR THE REPAIR. LATER FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS INCIDENT, BUT IT DID NOT COVER MY VIN. I CALLED GM AND COMPLAINED AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS A "SPECIAL COVERAGE" SO THEY REIMBURSED ME A PORTION OF MY REPAIR COSTS. FAST FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 10, 2014 AND I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. NO CRUISE BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY NO BRAKE LIGHTS. I CALLED GM TO COMPLAIN AGAIN AND WAS AGAIN TOLD MY VIN DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL (RECALL NO. 09049). WAS ALSO TOLD THE SPECIAL COVERAGE EXPIRED 4 MONTHS AGO. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND TRIED TO USE THE CRUISE CONTROL AND IT DIDN'T WORK. MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ALSO NOT WORKING. I DIDN'T KNOW MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING UNTIL I HAD TO SLOW DOWN FOR A CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND A CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME. IT WASN'T UNTIL I GOT OFF THE EXPRESSWAY AND A MAN TOLD ME MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING. I CHECKED THE FUSES AND THEY ARE ALL IN WORKING ORDER. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THE TOLD ME THAT MY 2007 CHEVY COLORADO WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS SORT OF PROBLEM. HE SAID MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT ONE OF THOSE RECALLED. *TR

I AM THE OWNER OF THE CHEVY COLORADO ( 10237336 ) A CORRECTION NEEDS TO BE MADE ON THE REPORT YOU HAVE LISTED.

ALSO, THE ABS FAILED AT 20 K MILES, THE FAN CLUTCH BURNT UP, THE A/C QUIT, ALL THE WIRING WAS BURNED, THE LIST GOES ON. I STILL HAVE 100 MILES LEFT ON MY WARRANTY.... ANY SUGGESTIONS ? *TR
