Brakes fail completely when wet. Dealer cannot fix problem, claiming nothing can be found wrong.

Brakes fail to engage properly when wet (from rain or car wash). Same problem as NHTSA campaignim01i014000. Not a recall but looking at the complaints for Lumina and monte carlo I think it should be. Feel free to drive mine and see what you think.
