The problem
This is not a safety recall in accordance with the safety act. However, it is deemed a safety improvement campaign by the agency. Vehicle description: 1992-1994 chevrolet and gmc suburbans equipped with vacuum power-brake assist and ebc4 anti-lock brake (abs) modules. These vehicles exhibit poor brake system performance.
The risk
THIS COULD BE ATTRIBUTED TO BRAKE PEDAL FEEL.
The fix
Dealers will install a new brake pedal pad. In addition, dealers will inspect the brake-booster output rod and replace it if necessary.

Gm has decided to conduct a service campaign to advise owners to have the brake pedal pad replaced on their vehicles. Owners can contact chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 or gmc at 1-800-462-8782, concerning this program.
