As a result of NHTSA campaign id number: 05v379000 I took my 2001 silverado to a certified gm dealer for repair of defect only to find out that although my 3500 has the same exact problem as the 1500,2500 the 3500 is not included in the recall according to gm dealer, it soaked me for $282. 48. ,same damn problem my truck only has 22,000 miles.
