1 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2019

My brakes keep going "hard" and not functioning properly. About a year ago I had my master cylander, brake booster, microswitch in the brake vacuum line, maf sensor and air intake hose replaced because the mechanic said those were the issues, I went 2 weeks without my vehicle, including breaking down for multiple days out of state. Now here I am with the same issues. Before I had them replaced I was told that the microswitch in the brake system was already recalled and replaced. But since then it has failed again. I was told by chevy that they only do the recall once, but if they are replacing it with a faulty part shouldn't that be recalled again? I have two toddlers in my vehicle regularly and losing the power brakes could end very bad. The power brakes fail almost every day, usually the first time I hit the brakes after starting to vehicle. Witch make me think that its going to completely fail again soon.

2 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2019

Let me list all that is wrong with my car: stabillitrack traction control purge valve tire sensor transmission lights flicker when I come to a stop and use my turn signal intake manifold brake booster car stalls and sometimes doesn't even want to start. All of these things are part of the recall for my 2012 chevy Cruze but for some reason it says my VIN # isn't part of the recall. How is that??.

3 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 10/14/2015

2012 Chevrolet Cruze recalled for brake failure at low speed. It was allegedly repaired at bacharodt Chevrolet, pompano beach, FL. Subsequently, the brakes again failed and a crash resulted against a wall at low speed in my apartment parking lot. After complaint to gm was sent to auto nation Chevrolet, delray beach FL and they determined that the recalled replacement sensor for the brakes was not put on correctly by bachrodt, and that they failed again and that caused the crash, no injuries. Gm picked up cost of repair in full including body damage.
