2011 4.6 EPB failure

[Txgenesis55]

Official word is a short in the parking brake module. Out of warranty obviously. Dealer quote is $4400. Part has not failed from overuse, I live in Dallas(flat as can be). Unfortunately part is out of stock and no time estimate for part delivery. HMA consumer affairs dept is offering $1000 as a goodwill gesture. Not enough imo. Cannot obtain the part at NAPA, Pep Boys, Oreilly or Car Part dot com.

Any input is appreciated on how to resolve. Considering all options including getting rid of the car as it cannot pass a Texas safety inspection with a caution light illuminated on the instrument cluster.

You can get the module itself on line (brand new) for about $1300. Used should be less then $400, but I don't see any. You may be able to find one at a local junkyard.
It may also be possible to find a rebuilder to repair your existing module.
