| Just wondering what happened to the gmc brake litigation settlement? my car is in need of another set of brakes, they even say that my emergency brakes need replacing and i've never used them since the last time they got replaced. plus my brakes are squeeking again, just wondering if anything was happening about this, besides i had to send them my repair papers, and never heard anything from them, seems like the company would say something about it good or bad.so the people are not worrying about their cars brakes.thank you jygates@froggernet.com. *ak | |||
