In 2011 my abs/brake light starting coming on took to dealership was told how much it would cost to repair. In searching online how to fix, I see a recall was given to salt belt states in 2005. I own truck since 2002. Told by GMC today the recall although it states salt belt states recall only affected certain VIN #'s is this correct? first owner lived in salt belt state and truck manufactured in salt belt. I see there are additional GMC products with same problem. Why don't they repair?.
