2006 ISUZU I-350 TRUCK THIS IS TO FILE A COMPLAINT REGARDING OUR 2006 ISUZU I-350 TRUCK PURCHASED IN 2006 AND RELATES TO A RECALL OF THE BRAKE SWITCH (GM RECALL NO. 06030, NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NO. 06V139000). FOLLOWING ARE THE CHRONOLOGICAL FACTS REGARDING MY COMPLAINT: AUGUST 26, 2006 - PURCHASED NEW TRUCK FROM BIG RED SPORTS/IMPORTS IN NORMAN, OKLAHOMA. JANUARY 2, 2007 - REPLACEMENT OF BRAKE SWITCH TO COMPLETE RECALL. PART NUMBER 8-25796-381-0 WAS USED IN REPLACEMENT. NO CHARGE DUE TO RECALL. OCTOBER 12, 2009 - REPLACEMENT AGAIN OF BRAKE SWITCH TO REPAIR INOPERABLE CRUISE CONTROL AND NO BRAKE LIGHTS. AGAIN, PART NUMBER 8-25796-381-0 WAS USED TO REPAIR THE DEFECTIVE PART INSTALLED ON JANUARY 2, 2007. CHARGE OF $121.27 PAID SINCE 'RECALL' HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN WORKED. THE EXACT SAME PART NUMBER (8-25796-381-0) WAS USED FOR BOTH REPAIRS. THEREFORE, IT WOULD APPEAR THIS PART IS DEFECTIVE AND PERHAPS SHOULD BE RECALLED, OR THERE IS ANOTHER PROBLEM NOT YET IDENTIFIED THAT IS CAUSING THIS BRAKE SWITCH TO FAIL. THE SAFETY CONCERN I HAVE IS THAT MY SON USES THIS VEHICLE WHILE AWAY AT COLLEGE AND DROVE FOR SEVERAL WEEKS WITHOUT REALIZING HE DID NOT HAVE BRAKE LIGHTS. THIS SAFETY HAZARD COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A REAR-END COLLISION. *TR
