Sierra 3500 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 40,000 miles
GMC 2001 Sierra C3 parking brake no longer functions as it should. This is a severe safety issue as the pedal goes to the floor and there is no way to adjust it (from what I can tell). A previous campaign 05V161000 alluded to this issue but only for manual transmission trucks. This is not logical as the mechanism is the same.
