The consumer experienced the same scenario again, but it involved a pedestrian who was crossing the street in the crosswalk. The consumer stated a technical service bulletin was issued by Chevrolet, but not a recall. The dealer informed the consumer the cost to install an auxiliary vacuum booster pump was $1200.
