Brake Fluid Level Sensor/Switch: All Technical Service Bulletins
Recall 01V220000: Low Fluid Warning Light Defect
Vehicle Description: Certain pickup trucks equipped with 6.6L diesel engines fail to comply with requirements of FMVSS No. 105, "Hydraulic and
Electric Brake Systems." These vehicles have a brake system warning light in the instrument cluster that may not illuminate when the brake fluid is low.
In addition, when the brake fluid is low, the vehicle may not meet the partial system requirements of FMVSS No. 105. These conditions could result in
reduced braking capability, which could lead to a crash.
Dealers will change the location of a wire connection in the underhood bussed electrical center. Owner notification began July 9, 2001. Owners who take
their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact
Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC at 1-800-462-8782. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at
1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
