Brake Light On Problems of GMC Jimmy

There have been a number of recalls for the 2001 GMC Jimmy, mainly recall #01073a & b stating ext. Lighting brake switch/ no rear brake lights. I'm told that the service was apparently completed on my vehicle in 2002, but another recall came out in 2008 stating the same problem. Gm canada is refusing to do the necessary recall on my truck stating that it was previously completed and that my vehicle is over a decade old, so it's my problem. I won't be purchasing another GMC in the future due to this issue. My rear brake lights stop working and its the switch that needs replacing. Thanks for nothing gm! you just lost a long term customer over a recall part. Dec 2001 - recall #01v364000 may 2008 - recall #01v364 / 01073b.
