(Besides their cars that are actually cool. j)(); )
GM to Recall About 400,000 Pickup Trucks
DETROIT - General Motors Corp. is recalling about 400,000 pickup trucks due to defective brake lights.
The affected vehicles are the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon from the 2004-2006 model years and the 2006 Isuzu i-280 and i-350.
GM said some vehicles may permanently lose brake-lamp function or have brake lamps that are always on. On vehicles with cruise control, that function also becomes inoperative.
GM spokesman Alan Adler said the company was not aware of any crashes resulting from the problem.
Dealers will replace the brake lamp switch assembly in the affected vehicles at no charge.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration contacted GM to inquire about the issue after receiving three complaints, and the company issued the recall in response, Adler said.
GM notified NHTSA of the recall in a letter dated Friday.

lol this just reminded me of something. monday night at work some asshole comes charging into the service aisle bitching that his car was towed, hes like this is rediculous, its a 2001 and its been in the shop a couple times a yr. for three years I'm giving up on this car, time for a honda.
The service writer just goes sir, there is a reason we dont have many cars in our shop, and the honda shop has cars lined up waiting to get in. But how much would you want for your car :h
