Brake line recall

Sounds like central NY.....

 

does anyone know if they have come up with a good solution?

 

Whether it’s good is yet to be determined. My truck had the new lines installed Saturday.

 

My will get installed on 8/2/25

 

Is there anyone that’s had both recalls done? (Brake lines and sensor) or just brake line I guess. Trying to see if it’s a couple hour/same day job, or if I need to drop the truck off and get a ride.

 

I had both plus my 10k mile service. Took 5 hours total.

 

I've not yet interacted with the service department for the dealership I bought my truck from, but I've definitely done something like that before. I've brought a vehicle in to have some work done, was told the parts weren't in and would take a while because of a shortage or something, and asked if I could take the vehicle (since the issue didn't make it undriveable or unsafe) and if they could call me when the parts came in. I always added that I wouldn't expect them to necessarily do the repair right away; after all, there were other people probably without their cars for longer. I would work with them to determine a time I could get them the vehicle again and they could put it in their queue as normal. I never had an advisor balk at that. Done it a couple times at a couple different places.

Helps to treat the folks at the dealership like the busy people with competing priorities that they are rather than peons who are commanded to fix my car right this second because I say so and because the universe revolves around my divine countenance. It might come from the fact that I worked as a repair technician (not cars, but it worked the same way) for almost a decade.

I mean, maybe I've just gotten lucky and have only run across reasonable people. Both Hanlon's and Occam's Razors seem to indicate to me that you more often get things when what you ask for is reasonable and you ask nicely. YMMV, I guess.

 

Yes…about 2 hours total.

 

Just got the rear brake recall done. The distance between the wheel and brake line went from approximately 1/2" to 1 1/2". Time will tell how well the change will hold up.

 

Mine goes to dealer Aug 6th for Brake Line Recall and dealer installing a Redarc Brake Controller
