   I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT MR 1995 DODGE RAM SPORT PICKUP, THAT I HAVE HAD AN ACCIDENT WITH. I WASN'T AWARE OF ANY RECALLS REGARDING THE REDUCED POWER BRAKE ASSIST, AND I AM TRYING TO GET MY VEHICLE'S COMPANY TO PAY FOR THE DAMAGE TO MY PICKUP. THERE WAS NO BODILY INJURY, HOWEVER, I FEEL LIKE IF MY BRAKES WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE FOR ME, THIS ACCIDENT WOUL NEVER HAVE HAPPENED. I AM NOW LOOKING AT MY BEAUTIFUL TRUCK, JUST WAITING TO BE FIXED, ( I GOT A LIST OF PARTS AAND PRICES FOR THE PARTS FROM MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER IN IMLAY CITY, MICHIGAN, AND THER TOTAL IS $ 3900.00. NOW I CAN'T AFFORD THIS, I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS, BECAUSE IF MY BRAKES WOULD HAVE WORKED FOR ME AS THEY ALWAYS HAVE IN THE PAST, THIS ACCIDENT WOULD NEVER OCCURED. PLEASE REPOND TO E-MAIL: LOGGY70@HOTMAIL.COM, ATTN: KIMBERLY LIEBISCH, P.O. BOX 52, CAPAC, MI. 48014.
