2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Service Brakes Problems

I have not had any incidents thank goodness. But I did take it to the shop and they told me as the vacuum pump. It wouldn’t stop my vehicle and I was always nervous about hitting someone or causing an accident. Before then, I had change the breaking pad, taking it to the shop to check on their transmission and none of that was the problem. Please make a recall on this. People could cause or be involving in an accident. It mostly happened when I’m driving in slow between 2-5 miles per hour. It always scare me when backing out of my driveway because the brakes wouldn’t work. I do not have any pictures. I would rather take this to get fixed before causing an accident.

Driving in Tucumcari New Mexico coming up on a green light that turned from green to yellow to red. I pressed the brake pedal instead of the brakes doing their job in slowing down to come to a stop. The pedal pushed against my pressure a did not allow me to stop or slow down in anyway. Upon this brake failure it made me run the red light an t bone another car in the intersection. This brake failure has cost me my only transportation to work, which is in Reno, Nevada. Now GM has never reached out to speak with me about getting the issue resolved before this accident. Dealership never reached out to me or informed me of any recalls prior to the accident or when I made the purchase in 2024. No warning lights no indicators or on my dash to inform of any problems

When at red lights, or in traffic, when you release the brake pedal to inch farther, and re-apply the brakes they go straight to the floor and you have to basically stand up on the brake pedal to finally stop. The truck slides and makes noises as it comes to stop. I was told these trucks in 2014 have a bad issue with the vacuum pump for the brakes.

Recall 19V-645 / N192268490 was performed on my 2014 Chevy Silverado, prior to me purchasing the vehicle a month ago. A computer adjustment was completed in 2019. The vehicle has brake problems, ie: vehicle will ease forward with brakes applied or while stopped. Upon re-applying brakes I have a HARD brake pedal. Dealer stated that recall was completed and I will have to pay to get vehicle fixed. The problem I am experiencing with this vehicle is the same problem that was addressed in the original recall. Computer adjustment did not fix the problem and a new vacuum pump should be installed on the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a local GM dealer on 15 September 2025. . If problem is not addressed properly, the vehicle brakes would/could cause an accident, at low speeds or move forward while vehicle is stopped. With vehicle in reverse, braking is harder than in forward causing potential accident.

Brake pedal gets hard and brakes become inoperative

Service Trailer Brake message constantly displays on the dash. But I don't haul trailers.

When going at low speeds like through a parking lot when I apply my brakes they get rock hard and do not want to stop. I can get it stopped but just barely. When going at normal driving speed 30mph plus they are fine and stop fine. I almost pulled into a car in a parking lot because I almost couldn't stop due to my brakes failing. This happens every time I go at low speeds 25mph and less

The brake vacuum pump on the 2014-2018 chevy silverado has intermittent failures causing reduced brakes, which is a major safety issue. Gm has this listed under a "special coverage warrenty" instead of a recall and wont fix this because the warrenty ended 6/24 or 150k miles(mine onpy has 125k). Luckily I didn't have any traffic infront of me and the street light had just turned red and the cross traffic hadn't started to move yet. When I contacted gm about this I talked to 3 different representatives 2 were the initial points of contact, the first stated I would be reimbursed due to this being a safety issue, the second said the first was talking about a "general warrenty"...? The third was a supposed " supervisor who was obviously reading from a script and chose his words very carefully when telling me that because the speciap coverage warrenty was up GM wasn't going to do anything about this which is a leagal way of saying their are ok with this known issue on their trucks out in the world. Probably because it'll be cheaper to have their lawyers fight a lawsuit than to pay for the parts and labor to have this known safety issue fixed.

The brakes feel squishy and it is difficult to stop at low speeds. Yes it is available for inspection upon request. Safety being put at risk by not being able to stop in time possibly causing crash. The truck was taken to a mechanic who found a code stating low vacuum pressure on brake booster but they could not find a leak anywhere and cleared the code. It is unknown if the component has been inspected by the manufacturer. Yes there has been a warning light before. It is unknown when exactly this problem started.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at 55 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed down to the floorboard, but the vehicle failed to stop immediately. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road. The vehicle slowed down and came to a stop with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The failure occurred on 4 separate occasions. The vehicle was towed to the dealer; however, no cause for the failure was found. The vehicle was not repaired; however, the contact replaced the brake pads. The contact stated that on another occasion, while driving 55 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power, the steering wheel locked, and lost functionality. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact restarted the vehicle and the vehicle returned to normal functionality. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, no cause for the failure was found. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that on another occasion while driving 55 MPH, the A/C stopped functioning as intended. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and was diagnosed with a coolant leak. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 59,000.

Mileage: 59,000

Service brake assist activated. Vacuum pump failure, there is no vacuum going to the brake booster from the vacuum pump mounted on the front of the engine block driven by belt pulley.Has code co299-00 brake booster large vacuum leak detected. Pump is not creating vacuum no vacuum going to booster for power brakes.This is a recall.

I was merging on to the expressway and my truck kept going to the left into traffic towards a concrete median. I turned my wheel to the right to try to avoid it and started to spin out and went back to the right side of the expressway which was four lanes wide and slammed into the guardrail. After the wreck I noticed my ABS light was on I’m not sure if it came on as I was merging onto the expressway.

ON MARCH 15, 2024 My 2014 Chevrolet silverado LT pickup while I was driving the steering suddenly got hard to steer then the engine shut off , I had very little brakes and steering, then it wouldnt start back after I got stopped. thank goodness I didnt hit anyone, after a few minutes it started and I carefully drove home, it was fine until may 09, 2024 I was going to a DR appointment and when I turned in the drive the steering got really hard and the engine almost died and when I turned it off it wouldnt start back all power was dead after I tried it several times it finally started but the stereo and dash lights were not working correct,I contacted GM and they told me that my truck had been recalled for this problem and they reset the computer module but thats all they were going to do. this didnt fix it and I want them to fix my truck because this is a very serious problem and could cause me to wreak and possibly kill someone or myself. please help me with this matter to get GM to fix it.

Purchased the vehicle yesterday, I had it inspected and the service tech informed me the brake booster was not performing correctly. He said instead of going down as a brake the brake is snapped back to where it is not stopping and it can go completely out to where it will not stop. He informed me of a recall on the brake booster. The local GM Dealer checked for the recall and stated the recall had been fulfilled by the previous owner. There's still a problem with the brake booster.

Was driving through the cities, when all of a sudden the brakes in my vehicle were suddenly not working. Being in heavy traffic doing 40mph, I veered off to the side of the road avoiding an accident. I exited the vehicle and inspected underneath for any broken/leaky brake lines. I then checked to see that I still had brake fluid. Everything seemed to be fine. There was no warning or indication with sound that the brakes were out or going bad. After entering the vehicle again the "service brakes" warning popped up on the dash. I called and had the vehicle taken to a shop. The auto shop stated that the vacuum pump was not working and also recommended to replace the brake booster pipe with the pressure switch.

Trailer Brake driver display notification and alert tone frequently activated with no apparent cause with or without a trailer connected. Alert is so repetitive it becomes an audible and visual distraction to the driver. Manufacturer design restricted code readers at Auto Zone or O’Reilly’s from identifying this problem and force owners to take vehicles to GM shops to identify the cause. The alerts and cause should be repaired under recall at no expense to the owner. I also have video to support.

My brakes do not compress all the way at low RPMs and prevent me from being able to stop. Consistent with other vehicles we called for the same issue on the same year but for some reason my VIN doesn't come up in the recall

I was driving with my kids in the truck because i just did school pick up i was aproaching a four way interection when i tried to stop and my break pedal was super stiff and found myself panicked i couldnt stop it almost caused an accident with a tractor trailer truck. I went up and over the curb into vacant parking lot in order to stop.

Brakes won’t work at low speeds, says online it was a recall at one point just don’t know if my VIN got missed

Seat belt anchor broke replaced under warranty but replaced with same defective parts and broke again. Dealer refused to repair without payment of $160.00. Fan belt for air pump brakes you have no brakes to stop truck. A/C condenser defective from factory leaks at seams burns out compressor. GM refuses to recall and dealer charges $1800.00 to repair. I've repaired all these problems on my own except for seat belt anchor

The frame is completely rusted out. Parts are falling off of it, it rusted under the factory wax rust preventive coating. the abs system will brake the truck on its own without any warning lights.

I have been receiving a service warning for the "Trailer Brake System" for years and found a video online telling me to report it due to this being a GM issue.

Driving down the road lost power assisted power steering causing the the steering wheel to just turn and wheels stayed straight

I started up and was backing out of my driveway. When I tried to slow the brakes felt weird shuddered a lot and then I had difficulty stopping. Service brake assist popped up on my screen. I slowly pulled into the driveway and when I tried to stop the truck shuddered and had a hard time stopping.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at slow speeds and making a left turn, the steering wheel and brakes became inoperable. The vehicle lost motive power and stalled. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer and the contact was provided the diagnostic test cost, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V414000 (Steering). The manufacturer was contacted but no additional assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000.

Mileage: 110,000

About 2 years after purchased (~2016), I was driving slowly in a parking lot and turned into a parking space. The brake pedal became very hard to press and the truck would not stop. I had to push extremely hard to get it to stop. I backed up and experienced the same problem. I put it in park, then the problem went away. There were no warning lights or indicators of a problem. I got a notice for a recall and took it into the dealer for repair in 2019. From 2019 through 2022, I have had 4 to 5 more incidents of the same problem. It seems to repeat when I slow down to a slow crawl with a trailer for added weight. I push the brakes while crawling and then the brake pedal gets hard to push and I loose brakes. Extremely dangerous, especially with added weight on a slight decline. I have found multiple instances with other customers reporting the same problem. Currently in contact with Chevy to resolve. I have reported the problem twice to the dealer and once to the "Customer Satisfaction" hotline. Chevy has confirmed that a recall was performed on the vehicle in 2019, but they cannot provide any information that the recall work fixed the problem or if they even tested that the fix was performed properly. Furthermore, they only report a "reprogramming" was done. No other work reported by Chevy, though, there are comments from other customers that a vacuum pump recall exists. They have yet to resolve the problem.

BRAKING SYSTEM!!! YES AVALIABLE FOR INSPECTION ANYTIME. WHEN TRAVELING NO MATTER THE SPEED WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES NO MATTER THE SITUATION THE BRAKES DONT WORK THE PEDAL FEELS REAL HARD TO PUSH FOR A MAN OF MY STATURE 6'1" 265 PDS. 1ST TIME WAS GETTING HOME AND THE PEDAL GOES HARD AND BRAKES DONT WORK.

Brake pedal gets hard under low speeds. Causes a stopping hazzard in parking lots and drive thrust. This year and model has been recalled for this, but my vin is not coming up as a recall. I worry when I back my boat in the water that my truck wont stop.

The warning "Service the Trailer Brake System" continues to randomly alarm. This was "fixed" multiple times. The fix takes about 5 minutes under the dash and then work for a few months to a year before it alarms again. It was "fixed" once during the warranty but it continues to be a problem. This is similar to the reoccurring problems that were recalled on the 2022 Chevrolet Silverados.

When backing truck up & pressing brake, it feels "spongy" or like the brake is not working right and sometimes vehicle doesn't stop. I had mechanic inspect brakes & they reported no visible issues. They recommended for me to check for a recall relating to this issue.

I had 2 recalls done, one for power steering & one for brakes. My truck was not experiencing ANY problems before I had this recall done. The day I had it done I lost power steering while trying to park at Home Depot immediately after leaving dealership, almost causing me to hit the vehicle I was trying to park next to. Thinking it was a fluke, i drove it home afterwards & when I got on the highway to go home, I experienced a very loud metal on metal sound that only went away after applying the brakes. I don’t drive much since I work from home, however every time I drive it for 10 min or so, the sound came back followed by increased braking pressure to stop, also almost causing multiple accident and any time I was driving slow & trying to make tight maneuvers or turning my wheel too park or go through roundabouts I would lose power steering. I took it back to the dealership & was told the serpentine belt was not installed properly & they replaced the vacuum pump for the brakes. Told that the steering & brakes were fixed and after starting I wasn’t taking it back until it’s verified fixed by test driving for more than just a few minutes & parked multiple times, I was told it was ok. I went straight home & while on the highway, the sound reappeared & didn’t go away & pulling into my driveway, the steering failed again. I left multiple messages that weren’t returned & while recently on the hwy, I was hearing the sound & had play in the wheel, I slammed on the brakes after a semi almost hit me & my truck shook like it was falling apart & I called 800# scared to drive & I had difficulty steering & breaking & with no way to get home I had to drive it & took it to the dealership again & now they’re telling me I have to pay for diagnostics & I refuse to pay Chevy a dime since my truck was fine until Chevy’s incompetent mechanic made my truck unsafe to drive. They deleted my dash cam videos also. I have numerous videos showing everything.

Steering assist warning light comes on and vehicle shut down losing ability to steer or brake , vehicle wouldn’t start,tried to start the next day and vehicle started.Before warning light all lights flickered when applying brakes and other warning lights lit up!

Using a signal for lane changes causes cruise control to disengage, suspension messages and air bag failure messages as well as tire failure icon would all come on and when leaving the exit ramp and decelerating the engine would die and system would lock up without ability to steer. So dangerous. Then next trip all is good but the engine failing while driving has happened a half dozen times. The last incident was another engine failure during an exit from the interstate in November.

Breaks stop working at slow speed. Vacuum pump fails

For several years now, I have been receiving the notification SERVICE: Trailer Brake. I typically try to dismiss it, but on occasion, it will continue to pop up over and over and over and over again. I have driven this vehicle since it's original purchase and have never even used the trailer brake. (Even though it's been titled twice - I purchased it from the company I work for.) Thankfully it has not caused any accidents. Just an annoyance. But I have been reading online that some owners have been unable to operate their vehicles due to this issue. This is not a daily driver vehicle but today was the most recent episode with the warning. I drove maybe a couple of miles total and it chimed and notified me approximately 20 times in this short distance. I looked on youtube and there are countless owners that have this same problem. It is definitely a distraction to the driver and could potentially cause a very serious accident.

I purchased this vehicle used in July of 2020. Ever since then, I have experienced random issues with a Service-Trailer Brake System warning coming on. It will keep coming and the chime is extremely distracting and cannot be silenced for any significant period of time. After reviewing on the internet, I am also very concernd about pulling a load with a braking system. I may go for hundreds of miles with no warning, then the warning will start coming in repeatedly. I have not at this time attempted any repairs.

HeadLights and park lights keep blow the bulbs both sides An the brake pedal gets hard as a rock and started pushing back up to me Just does it at low speeds and backing up At low speed

I almost got in a wreck this morning. I turned down a street lost power, brakes and steering all at once. this has been happening ever since I bought this truck. Thank God the vehicle behind me was traveling at a safe distance. The system says I have no recalls but I continue to read issues involving total loss of power on 2014 Chevy Silverado‘s? What’s it gonna take for Chevy to own this mistake?

Brake pedal went hard almost got into accident in traffic. Took truck to my mechanic vacuum pump was bad. Had to replace pump 350 dollar job.

The trailer brake warning has began to beep almost nonstop at times whether trailering or not. Even sitting in the driveway.

While approaching stoplight stepped on brakes and had zero braking power. Coasted to service company they confirmed no braking power. They determined vacuum was bad and replaced

low speed brake failure and brakes became hard to press.

The 2014 and up Chevrolet Silverado 1500 models are notorious for electrical issues and bugs, some may have been recalled but other were not included in that recall while still having the same issues, these vehicles have major electrical system issues, from bad battery cables, down to every Control Module associated with the truck, over time salt, sand, mud, moisture disrupts certain key areas of the electrical wiring harness underneath the vehicle, General Motors knows about this but fails to recall these vehicles, it creates a very serious matter when you have no traction control, or any ABS function, along with loss of power steering assist. These control systems can be life and death when they are not working!. GM needs to address these issues and recall ALL 2014+ Silverado’s and alike for these electrical issues relating to “loss of communication with the ECM, BCM, TCM, EBCM, TCCM, PSCM, etc. these are costly break downs and these modules are very expensive to just throw in and hope it fixes the issue, most dealers don’t want to trace wiring issues and will just tell the customer cannot replicate which leaves us vulnerable. Some customers state their vehicles will randomly shut off while driving, others report their truck going into “Limp home mode”. Nobody can seem to centralize a specific area where the problems are occurring but believe it has something to do with the material and the way the harness was made.

The trailer Brake system is malfunctioning.

When I’m driving at slow speeds, the brakes feel real squishy and hard to stop.

While driving down the road a service alert comes up on the dash advising "Service Trailer Brake system". This alert is extremely distracting and will not go away while hitting the "dismiss" button. To my knowledge the trailer brake system on this vehicle has never been used. GM shoukd take full responsibility of this problem and issue a recall. Failure to do so could result in future vehicle accidents from people being distracted from this obnoxious alarm from a faulty part. I would supply a picture or video of the alarm but using my camera while driving would only add to the already present danders associated with this issue. Thanks for your time.

Brake vacuum pump is failing creating an unsafe condition while braking when the vehicle is in a low RPM range. I had a close call while backing down a sloping driveway at my home in which it was almost impossible to stop the vehicle. The pedal provided a lot of resistance but the vehicles braking power was greatly reduced. Ultimately I had to use all my strength on the pedal for the vehicle to stop. After continual issues, I am in the process of getting the vehicle repaired. Thank goodness this didn’t occur while backing a boat into the water. I have not been able to use a boat for fear of ending up in the lake.

Brakes seem to sputter/skip when applying when traveling above 40 mph. I had an inspection done with Brake Masters. They inspected brake pads, rotors and performed a road test. They stated Brakes pads and rotors were still good about another year left. They did say brakes sputtered at about 40 mph and over. They thought it could be issue with brake vacuum system Thanks

the brakes have a hard pedal with no brakes at low speed . In reverse have to apply lots of pressure to brake pedal, and this does not always work. I read there is a recall. I want to get repaired before an accident occurs. This is on going, not just the date below.

I believe my 2014 silverado has a recall for the vacuum brake pump. I just purchased the truck a month ago And I noticed when I take off in drive or reverse and hit the brake pedal it doesn’t want to move and becomes stiff. It has almost caused me to have 2 accidents now. After doing research and looking things up I have come to know there as a recall on these trucks for the vacuum brake pump and I don’t think this truck has ever been fixed for it. I would like to get this fixed before it causes an accident.

When stopping at slow speeds in stop and go traffic my abs would kick on and the power breaks would not work and I would need to press the break pedal very hard to stop. Only seems to happen in stop and go traffic at slow speeds but it's super scarey.

Truck has rough breaking at low speeds. It’s due to the break pump recall on this make, year and model. The break pump also makes a clicking sound when engine is running. Common in these trucks.

My vehicle lost the ability to apply brakes or slow down, the vehicle had a rock hard peddle at low speed. There was no illuminated light on the dashboard no warning! I barely avoided a collision and scraped my truck driving off the road to try and stop it. The issue is worst at lower RPM!

Multiple GM vehicles have an error with the traction control system that they cannot diagnose and continuously dismiss to cover their mistakes. Many makes and models report warnings to Service Stabilitrak and Service Breaks along with numerous other warnings. After the warning, drivers are experiencing power failure, locking steering wheels, wrecks, exponential costs for investigations, and temporary fixes. GM will not release any information on investigations into this matter. GM Technicians can not adequately diagnose the issue and will say there is a grounding problem, Traction Control module needs to be reset, replace the battery, and many other bogus repairs to temporarily fix the problem. How many people will have to experience these mechanical errors that can cause serious wrecks or fatalities before NHTSA or GM will investigate? All GM owners should be absolutely disappointed and disgusted with the response from the safety measures put in place to "protect us."

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while entering the vehicle, he noticed that the passenger’s side window failed to work as designed. Additionally, there was water leaking into the vehicle whenever it rained. The contact also stated that the brakes would not engage when the brake pedal was depressed. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed with the window’s wiring harness needing to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact was relating the failure to an unknown recall. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 67,331.

Message on dash to roll up drivers side window. Truck restarted! Truck only has 60100 miles. What is going on with this truck? I could have injured myself or someone else? Thank you in advance for allowing me to voice what happened today 6/28/21

Brake padel still rock hard at low speeds even after the so called fix for this issue that GM did for the previous recall

At low speed the power brakes no longer work. The brake pedal has to be pushed to the floor in order to stop. The pedal does not return to its original position and remains soft/spongy and pushed in. Almost caused an accident when this was first discovered.

My 2014 chevy silverado when backing down boat ramp break pedal will go all the way to the floor. I almost lost my whole truck an boat. This just started . I have little over 33 thousand miles on truck.

MY VEHICLE VIN DOES NOT SEEM LISTED FOR RECALL GM NO. N192268490 OR WAS SERVICED. YET, I CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE INTERMITTENT LOSS OF BRAKING POWER, ESPECIALLY AT SLOW SPEEDS SUCH AS AFTER SHIFTING FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE FOR PARKING, OR BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE. MUCH MORE PRESSURE IS REQUIRED TO STOP AS IF LOSS OF POWER RESULTING IN MANUAL-ONLY BRAKING. THIS SEEMS TO GO AWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED. PRIOR TO RECALL, THE ISSUE PREVIOUSLY RESULTED IN $3000 DAMAGE TO ANOTHER FAMILY VEHICLE PARKED ON OUR PRIVATE PROPERTY.

Mileage: 68,000

WHILE DRIVING, THE "SERVICE TRAILER BRAKES SYSTEM" KEPT COMING ON. THERE WAS A VISUAL AND AUDIO WARNING CHIME THAT WOULD NOT STOP. INSTEAD OF A SINGLE NOTIFICATION TO THE DRIVER, THE INTERMITTENT CONNECTION WOULD RESULT IN THE ERROR MESSAGE CONTINUOUSLY RE-APPEARING AND CHIMING. THIS WAS EXTREMELY DISTRACTING AND COULD INCREASE RISK OF CRASH. I REMOVED THE BRAKE GAIN CONTROLLER FROM THE DASH AND FOUND CORROSION ON AN ELECTRICAL CONTACT STRIP. AFTER CLEANING IT WITH ELECTRONICS CLEANER, THE ERROR MESSAGE WENT AWAY.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE STIBILI-TRAC WARNING LIGHT FLASHED WHILE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL BEFORE THE STEERING WHEEL SUDDENLY BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN IN EITHER DIRECTION. WHILE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC, SEVERAL DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHTS WERE DISPLAYED WHILE THE DOORS ERRONEOUSLY UNLOCKED. THE DRIVER ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. AFTER STOPPING THE VEHICLE AND SWITCHING TO THE PARK POSITION, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUTOFF AND COULD NOT BE RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALER ATLANTIC CADILLAC LOCATED AT 1350 SUNRISE HWY, BAYSHORE, NY 11706, HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE OR DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES.

WHILE DRIVING HOME, A STABILITRAK WARNING APPEARED ON THE DASH AND MY AC/RADIO BEGAN TO STOP BUT RAMPED BACK UP AFTER THE DISMISSAL. ONCE I GOT TO MY STREET, I MADE A LEFT AND THE TRUCK COMPLETED TURNED OFF. MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, THE WHEEL LOCKED UP, AND THERE WAS NO POWER TO THE VEHICLE. AFTER ABOUT 3 MINUTES, THE VEHICLE LIGHTS TURNED ON AND I WAS ABLE TO GET TO MY DRIVEWAY. I CANNOT IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF I WAS ON THE FREEWAY. THERE'S MANY OTHER PEOPLE ON THE WEB THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH THIS TRUCK.

WHILE BACKING THE CAMPER INTO A CAMP SITE WITH A SLIGHT UPGRADE, WHEN I MOVING FORWARD TO STRAIGHTEN THE TRUCK, THE BRAK PEDAL BECAME HARD TO PUSH DOWN. EACH TIME I PRESSED THE BRAKES, IT BECAME HARDER TO PRESS, AND I FELT A PULSING SENSATION PUSHING BACK UP ON THE PEDAL. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES, IT BECAME IMPOSSIBLE TO PUSH DOWN ON THE PEDAL. I WAS MOVING UNDER 1 MPH AT THE TIME WITH NOTHING IN MY WAY. AFTER BACKING UP AGAIN, I TRIED IT AGAIN WITH THE SAME RESULTS. THIS TRUCK WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER PREVIOUSLY FOR THE RECALL LISTED FOR BRAKING BOOSTER THAT REQUIRED RECALIBRATING THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE. I BELIEVE THE SERVICE EITHER DIDN'T WORK, OR IT CREATED A NEW PROBLEM. THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR, WARM, AND EVERYTHING WAS DRY. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY OTHER BRAKING PROBLEMS.

WHILE DRIVING IN REVERSE AND IN DRIVE AT LOW SPEEDS, BRAKES FAILED TO ENGAGE PROPERLY. AT FIRST I WAS TRYING TO STOP WHILE IN REVERSE TO GO FORWARD. I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE EXTREMELY HARD TO VEHICLE TO COME TO A STOP. WHEN I WENT FORWARD, I EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING. BRAKES DID NOT ENGAGE PROPERLY AND WERE EXTREMELY HARD TO PRESS DOWN TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP. I STOPPED DRIVING AT THAT POINT BECAUSE I WAS IN A TIGHT PARKING LOT AND DIDNT FEEL I COULD SLOW QUICK ENOUGH TO NOT RUN INTO OTHER VEHICLES.

THERE IS AN UNINTENDED BRAKING DURING DRIVE STARTED TO HAPPENED. USUALLY HAPPENS IN AUTO AND 4WD MODE. THE TRUCK WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF FREEWAY OF AROUND 70 TO 80 MILES PER HOUR AND SUDDENLY BRAKES JAMMED BY ITSELF. THIS HAPPENED MORE THAN 5 TIMES. CHECKED THE VIN FIRST TIME THROUGH NHTSA WEBSITE FOR VIN RECALL AND SHOWS 2 RECALLS. FIRST ONE FOR EBCM REPROGRAMMING AND SECOND ONE FOR EQUIPMENT VACUUM PUMP REPLACEMENT. BRING IT TO CHEVORLET OF FOLSOM, CA AND THEY DID REPROGRAMMING WITHOUT THE PART REPLACEMENT AND TOLD THAT TRUCK IS RUNNING FINE. BUT THE ISSUE STILL PERSISTS. NOW BRING IT TO THEM AND THEY SAID WE DONT DEAL WITH SALVAGE TITLES. AND JUST FOR MY SAKE CHECKED AGAIN FOR RECALL ON NHTSA WEBSITE AND IT SHOWS NONE OR MIGHT BE THEY REPORTED IT FIXED. BUT THE ISSUE IS STILL THERE.

IT STARTED WITH THE TRUCK LOSING POWER WHEN MAKING SLOW SPEED TURNS INTO DRIVEWAY/PARKING SPOT WHICH INCLUDES LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHICH HAS CAUSED ME TO ALMOST CRASH SEVERAL TIMES. THE POWER USED TO COME BACK UP BUT NOW IT IS RESULTING IN THE TRUCK JUST TURNING ITSELF OFF MID TURN AND NOT JUST ON SLOW TURNS. IT HAPPENED WHEN I WAS MAKING A TURN ONTO A STREET AND I WAS FORCED TO MUSCLE THE TRUCK OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD- NO POWER AT ALL SO NO POWER STEERING-GOING ABOUT 10-15 MPH. WHEN DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON IF YOU USE THE TURN SIGNAL IT KICKS OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL. THE AC WILL JUST STOP AND THE TRUCK WILL JUST SHUT OFF. THE WHOLE TIME ALL/ANY OF THIS IS HAPPENING MY DASH IS TELLING ME STABILITY CONTROL IS OFF, STEERING ASSIST OF OFF DRIVE WITH CARE....IF THE DASH HAS ANY POWER THAT IS. THE TRAILER BRAKE SYSTEM FLASHES LIKE I AM USING THE BRAKES WHEN I AM SITTING IN THE TRUCK DOOR OPEN, KEY OUT. I HAVE UNPLUGGED THAT THINKING IT WAS THE PROBLEM BUT IT DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING. AT TIMES IT IS COMPLETELY RANDOM THAT ALL POWER ALMOST BOTTOMS OUT AND COMES BACK MOMENTS LATER. THERE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING WRONG AND AS SEE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THESE SAME ISSUES...SHOULD INVESTIGATE AND OFFER RECALL AND GET THESE TRUCKS FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE DOES CRASH. MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 53,300 MILES ON IT AND IT HAS A NEW BATTERY AND WE HAVE CHECKED THE ALTERNATOR. THE DATE BELOW WOULD BE WHEN I ALMOST CRASHED TURNING THE CORNER AND TRUCK DIED.

I PULLED INTO A DRIVE THRU TRAVELING STRAIGHT AHEAD. WHEN I TRIED TO BRAKE I HEARD AN ODD CLICKING NOISE AND HAD A VERY HARD BRAKE PEDAL. THE NOISE I FOUND OUT LATER WAS THE ABS SYSTEM DOING IT'S JOB BECAUSE OF MY HARD BRAKING. I DID GET THE VEHICLE STOPPED BEFORE HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE HARD BRAKE CONTINUED AS I MOVED THROUGH THE DRIVE THRU LINE. ONCE I PULLED OUT ON TO THE ROAD THE AND TRIED THE BRAKES AGAIN THEY APPEARED TO WORK PROPERLY. I PULLED INTO AN OPEN LOT AND TRIED THE BRAKES MULTIPLE TIMES AT LOW SPEED AND THE HARD BRAKE CONDITION CONTINUED. MY VEHICLE JUST TURNED OVER 70,000 MILES AND HAD THE RECALL N192268490 TO RECALIBRATE THE BRAKE CONTROL MODULE FOR HARD BRAKING ON 3/4/2020. IT'S APPARENT THAT THE FIX GM IS DOING FOR THE HARD BRAKE PEDAL AND STOPPING IS NOT RESOLVING THE ISSUE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND IF I HAD BEEN CARRYING ANY WEIGHT OR A TRAILER WITH MY TRUCK I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP. I AM GOING TO BE REPLACING THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP WHICH I BELIEVE WILL FIX THE ISSUE. *TR

MY VEHICLE WAS SERVICED ON APRIL 14, 2020 FOR AN OIL CHANGE, TIRE ROTATION, ETC. AND THE WORK WAS ALSO PERFORMED FOR RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V645000. I HAD NO ISSUES WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM PRIOR TO THIS DATE - NO INCREASED PRESSURE, NO WARNING LIGHTS, NOTHING. AFTER THIS DATE I NOTICED MY BRAKES SKIPPING WHILE IN REVERSE ON AN INCLINE. I LIVE AT THE TOP OF A HILL AND MY DRIVEWAY IS ALSO A HILL, SO I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT. HOWEVER, I WAS REVERSING OUT OF A SLIGHTLY INCLINED PARKING SPOT AT A LOCAL RESTAURANT AND PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOORBOARD AND THE TRUCK WAS STILL NOT STOPPING. I MANAGED TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND GET THE CAR INTO DRIVE TO AVOID HITTING A CAR BEHIND ME IN THE PARKING LOT. LATER THAT SAME DAY I WHEN REVERSING OUT OF ANOTHER SLIGHTLY INCLINED PARKING SPOT HAD TO FULLY USE MY EMERGENCY BRAKE TO BRAKE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I COULD NOT PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL AT ALL DUE TO SO MUCH PRESSURE. I TOOK MY TRUCK IMMEDIATELY TO THE LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT GET TO IT THAT DAY, BUT THAT I COULD DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND BRING IT BACK FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. I REFUSED TO DRIVE MY TRUCK OFF THEIR LOT AND AM APPALLED THAT IT WOULD EVEN BE SUGGESTED AFTER HEARING THAT THE BRAKES MAY OR MAY NOT WORK. I CALLED THE NEXT DAY AT LUNCH TIME AFTER I HAD NOT HEARD ANYTHING AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A SHORT IN THE BRAKE PUMP AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED, BUT THE PART IS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER. I WAS AGAIN TOLD I COULD COME GET MY TRUCK AND DRIVE IT UNTIL THE PART CAME IN (BECAUSE I TOLD THEM I WASN'T PAYING FOR THEIR LOANER CAR I'M CURRENTLY DRIVING THAT THEY WILL TRY TO CHARGE ME FOR). I TOLD THE MAN IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HE'S CRAZY IF HE THINKS I'M GOING TO COME GET A TRUCK WHERE THE BRAKES MAY NOT WORK. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD CAUSE VEHICLE DAMAGE IF NOT ADDRESSED. *TR

FOR THE 3RD TIME IS LESS THAN 3 WEEKS, I'VE HAD POWER BRAKING COMPLETELY FAIL AT LOW SPEEDS WHICH HAS NEARLY LED TO RUNNING INTO AN OBJECT DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF MY VEHICLE (USUALLY ANOTHER PARKED VEHICLE, MY HOME, OR SOMETHING ELSE NEARBY WHEN PARKING). I JUST NOTICED ON SEVERAL FORUMS THAT THE SAME PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED, AND NOW I'M HEADING TO THE DEALERSHIP TO PAY BETWEEN $600-1200 FOR REPAIRS ON MY 2014 VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 42K MILES.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2014 SILVERADO 1500 TRUCK AT SLOW SPEEDS (UNDER 20 MPH), IN THREE DIFFERENT PARKING LOTS WITH PEDESTRIANS PRESENT, THE BRAKES DID NOT RESPOND TO ANY LEVEL OF FOOT PRESSURE. THESE FAILURES HAPPENED OVER A 30-MINUTE SPAN. THE TRUCK KEPT MOVING FORWARD EVEN THOUGH I WAS PULLING ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO HELP WITH DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH AS MUCH FORCE AS I COULD. I HAD TO PUT THE TRANSMISSION INTO NEUTRAL TO HELP STOP THE VEHICLE. UPON REVIEWING INTERNET BLOGS OF THIS ISSUE I FOUND OTHERS HERE ON NHTSA WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND ALSO FOUND GM/CHEVY HAD TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS PUBLISHED FOR THIS ISSUE: PIT5361D & PIT5362B. WHAT FAILED WAS THE POWER BRAKE VACUUM PUMP/BOOSTER WHICH PROVIDES THE VACUUM FOR THE BRAKES TO FUNCTION. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO MY CHEVY DEALER FOR REPAIR. THIS BRAKE VACUUM PUMP/BOOSTER REPAIR COST ME $1,100.00 AS THEY SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY NOR WAS A RECALL AT THIS POINT. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT WITH SO MANY OTHERS AFFECTED, MYSELF INCLUDED, WITH THIS MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT IT IS NOT YET A FULL RECALL ITEM. FACT IS, YOU CANNOT DRIVE A VEHICLE WITHOUT WORKING BRAKES, PERIOD. IT IS NOT A SITUATION SUCH AS BRAKE PADS BEING WORN (THEY ARE NOT), IT IS THE CORE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE POWER BRAKE SYSTEM THAT FAILED AND SHOULD BE UNDER A MAJOR RECALL. HERE ARE THE PARTS THAT WERE REPAIRED/REPLACED: BRAKE VACUUM PUMP, VACUUM PUMP BELT, A/C BELT, AND PIPE FROM PUMP TO THE BOOSTER. PLEASE ESCALATE THIS COMPLAINT AS THIS PART FAILURE IN CHEVY TRUCKS, AS WELL AS GM AND CADILLAC AS SEEN FROM OTHER'S POSTS, IS A LIFE AND DEATH ISSUE WHEN OPERATING A VEHICLE WITH BRAKE SYSTEMS FAILURE SUCH AS THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE.

MY TRUCK HAS HAD 3 INSTANCES OF THE BRAKES NOT WORKING CORRECTLY IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS. EACH TIME MY BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO PRESS DOWN AND MY TRUCK DID NOT STOP IN THE MANNER IT SHOULD HAVE. EACH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IT WAS AFTER STOPPING AND PUTTING THE TRUCK INTO REVERSE TO PARK IT. THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME HARD AND WOULDN'T GO DOWN THE WAY IT SHOULD. AFTER EACH INCIDENT AND PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE THE SAME HARD PEDAL PREVENTED THE BRAKES FROM WORKING CORRECTLY GOING FORWARD. AFTER STOPPING, TURNING OFF THE ENGINE AND RE STARTING THE VEHICLE THE BRAKES WORKED FINE. I FOUND A BULLETIN ONLINE THAT GENERAL MOTORS PUT OUT WHERE A MECHANIC INSPECTION SHOULD BE PERFORMED TO CHECK IF ANY OIL WAS IN THE BRAKE VACUUM LINE LEADING INTO THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER WITH THE OIL STEMMING FROM THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP. UPON INSPECTION THERE WAS NO OIL FOUND AND MY MECHANIC PERFORMED AN OVERNIGHT PRESSURE TEST ON THE VACUUM PUMP ITSELF AND THE FOLLOWING DAY FOUND THERE WAS NO VACUUM LEAK DETECTED. THIS TEST WAS PERFORMED ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO AFTER MY SECOND INCIDENT. MY 3RD INCIDENT HAPPENED THIS PAST FRIDAY 12/21/2018. MY TRUCK DID NOT STOP THE WAY IT SHOULD HAVE BACKING INTO A PARKING SPOT AND I WOUND UP HAVING MY TRUCK DRIVE INTO A CHAIN LINK FENCE AS MY BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN GOT REALLY HARD AND MY BRAKES FAILED. I AM VERY CONCERNED NOW THAT THERE IS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW THAT DEVELOPED FROM A CASE OF POOR QUALITY MATERIALS USED IN THE MAKING OF THE PARTS OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM. MY TRUCK IS RARELY USED IN A ROUGH OR CARELESS MANNER, RARELY PERFORMS TOWING AND HAS 88,000 MILES ON IT. A RECALL IS WAY OVERDUE REGARDING THE BRAKING SITUATION.

Mileage: 88,500

AT LOW SPEEDS WHILE BRAKING AFTER 2-4 PUMPS THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES HARD AND I NEED TO USE EXTRA FORCE TO APPLY BRAKES. HAS HAPPENED WHILE BOARDING A FERRY DUE TO PRESSING THE BRAKE CONTINUOUSLY TO AVOID GOING TO FAST WHILE PARKING ON BOARD,AND DURING STOP AND GO TRAFFIC IF THE GAS PEDAL WASN'T USED TO RESET VACUUM PRESSURE.

WHEN 'FEATHERING' MY BRAKES WHENEVER I'M IN A SMALL AREA (PARKING LOT, FITTING INTO A SPACE, MY BRAKES GRIND WHILE PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THE TRUCK CONTINUES TO ROLL ANOTHER FOOT OR SO WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN AT A STOP SIGN/RED LIGHT IF I DISENGAGE THE BRAKE TO MOVE FORWARD A BIT AND THEN TRY TO STOP. THIS HAPPENS WITH THE TRUCK IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. IT'S HAPPENED IN BOTH PARKING LOTS, MY DRIVEWAY, AND OFF RAMPS FROM A HIGHWAY.

I WAS DRIVING SOUTH ON THE 101, IN CALABASAS CA. AS I TRIED TO BRAKE THE PEDAL GOT VERY HARD. EVERY TIME I BRAKED IT WAS TAKING LONGER TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I'M TRAVELING TO MEXICO WITH MY FAMILY. I WILL TAKE MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER IN SIMI VALLEY, CA. I CONSIDER THAT THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION OF ALL THE OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT MAKES IT EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR ALL OCCUPANTS AND OTHER DRIVERS WHO ARE NEXT TO THEM. I HOPE YOU TAKE IN CONSIDERATION MY CONCERN.

THIS IS NOT THE ABS KICKING IN. I WAS A SERVICE MANAGER FOR FORD FOR YEARS AND IT FEELS LIKE WHEN A BRAKE BOOSTER GOES BAD. VEHICLE WAS DROPPED OFF AT FX CAPRARA CHEVROLET IN PULASKI NY THIS MORNING FOR DIAGNOSIS AS THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE LIKE THIS. VEHICLE WAS ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT TWICE.

AFTER DRIVING EXTENSIVELY THROUGH SEVERAL TOWNS, CITIES AND ON HIGHWAYS, THE BRAKES WENT OUT AS WE TURNED INTO OUR DRIVEWAY. HAROLD CHEVROLET (DEALER AND SERVICE) REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER, BRAKE BOOSTER, VACUUM PUMP AND HOSE BECAUSE THE VACUUM PUMP LEAKED INTERNALLY INTO BRAKE BOOSTER. ($1638.86) THIS IS VERY CONCERNING BECAUSE ACCORDING TO THE NEWSPAPER, YOU ARE AWARE BUT HAVE FAILED TO WARN OWNERS. INJURY AND LOSS OF LIFE IS A REAL POSSIBILITY. I USE THIS TRUCK TO BACK MY BOAT INTO THE LAKE SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK. IF THE BRAKES HAD FAILED, I DO NOT THINK I COULD HAVE SURVIVED WITH MY AGE (73) AND DISABILITY (NEUROPATHY OF FEET AND LEGS.)THIS REALLY STRESSES ME.

Mileage: 28,358

UNDER LOW SPEEDS THE VEHICLE BRAKE PEDAL GETS VERY HARD AND THE VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE EXPECTED OR TYPICAL STOPPING POWER. THE PROBLEM IS EXACERBATED WHEN TOWING AND ON HILLS. A SERVICE BULLETIN HAS BEEN POSTED BY GM (PIT5361B) DETAILING THE PROBLEM IS CAUSED BY POOR VACUUM SUPPLIED TO THE BRAKE BOOSTER AT LOW ENGINE SPEEDS. FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM ON AN INCLINE WHILE TOWING A BOAT, THE TRUCK COULD NOT STOP THE SETUP WITHIN A FEW FEET EVEN AT WELL LESS THAN 5 MPH. CONTINUES WHEN BACKING DOWN THE BOAT RAMP AND EVEN STOPPING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC.

APPLYING THE BRAKES REQUIRES EXCESSIVE FORCE TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A STOP. CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED A DAMAGED/FAULTY VACUUM PUMP AS THE CAUSE OF THE ISSUE. THIS NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH ANOTHER DRIVER WHEN ATTEMPTING TO STOP ON A CITY STREET IN WILLIAMSBURG, VA AT A RED LIGHT.

ALMOST INSTANTLY I WAS CUTOFF AT THE SLOWER SPEED AND NEEDED TO APPLY MY BRAKES AGAIN, THIS TIME THE PEDAL WAS FIRM AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT REACT. I AVOIDED THE COLLISION BY SWERVING INTO THE NEXT LANE. THE PEDAL HAD NO AFFECT ON STOPPING THE VEHICLE IN THIS SITUATION.

Mileage: 137,000

AT 61K MILES, WHEN BACKING UP SLOWLY, GENERALLY INTO A PARKING SPACE, THE BRAKES FREEZE. ONLY AFTER PUMPING THEM OR PUTTING THE TRUCK IN PARK, DO THE BRAKES COMPRESS AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEASE 4 TIMES IN THE PASSED 2 WEEKS.

Mileage: 61,500

BRAKES ARE FAILING AT LOW SPEEDS. FROM OTHER REPORTS IT SEEMS TO BE THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP. WHILE DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, I NEARLY REAR ENDED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD NOT MOVE NO MATTER HOW HARD I PRESSED. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND ONLY THE CURB ACROSS THE STREET STOPPED THE VEHICLE.

Mileage: 74,000

THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING SLOWLY IN TRAFFIC RAMAPO VALLEY ROAD (AKA RT 202) IN OAKLAND NJ WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES. THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD NOT MOVE AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP, I TRIED TWICE BEFORE STEPPING ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. AT THE SAME TIME I STEPPED ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME CAUSING NO DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE BUT MY VEHICLE HAS A DENT IN THE FRONT BUMPER FROM THE TOW HITCH ON THE CAR I HIT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES REPORTED AT THE SCENE. THE POLICE OFFICER ARRIVED AND MOVED MY TRUCK CONFIRMING THERE WAS A BRAKE FAILURE. THE POLICE OFFICER MOVED MY TRUCK TO A DRIVEWAY ACROSS THE ROAD AND A MESSAGE REGARDING A BRAKE ASSIST FAILURE DISPLAYED ON THE DASH. NO INDICATION WAS DISPLAYED AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT. THE POLICE OFFICER DECLARED THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND HAD IT TOWED AND IMPOUNDED. AFTER GETTING A VEHICLE RELEASE MY TRUCK WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP IN LITTLE FALLS NJ WHERE THE SERVICE SUPERVISOR CONFIRMED THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP FAILED. I WAS CONTACTED BY GM AND GAVE THEM INFORMATION REGARDING THE ACCIDENT. THE SERVICE SUPERVISOR INFORMED ME GM INVESTIGATORS WERE GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP TO INSPECT THE FAILURE. I FOUND A GM SERVICE BULLETIN DATED JUNE 2016, BULLETIN NUMBER PIT5361B DESCRIBING THIS FAILURE. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO GET GM TO PAY FOR THE DAMAGES SINCE THE TRUCK IS LESS THAN 5 YEAR OLD AND HAS LESS THAN 100000 MILE ON IT, IT HAS ABOUT 45000 MILES ON IT. THIS PART IS NOT A PART THAT IS EXPECTED TO WEAR OF INSPECTED DURING NORMAL MAINTENANCE.

THANKFULLY A COLLISION DID NOT OCCUR AND THERE WAS NO HARM TO ANYONE.

BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES AFTER A SERIES OF BRAKE APPLICATIONS AT LOW SPEED. BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES VERY FIRM AND PULSATES, STOPPING BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT. PEDAL FEEL RETURNS TO NORMAL AFTER DRIVING A SHORT DISTANCE BUT THE ISSUE RETURNS AFTER A SERIES OF BRAKE PEDAL APPLICATIONS IN A SHORT TIME SPAN. FIRST NOTICED IN A PARKING LOT AS PULLING INTO A SPACE, BUT PROBLEM REPEATED ON CITY STREETS AS PULLING UP TO STOP LIGHTS OR IN CITY STOP AND GO TRAFFIC.

ANY TIME, WHILE I AM DRIVING, THE BRAKES TURN ROCK HARD WHEN TRYING TO BRAKE. WHEN IT FIRST STARTED A LITTLE OVER A WEEK AGO, THE BRAKES WOULD ONLY TURN HARD WHEN I WAS GOING 20MPH OR SLOWER. NOW IT'S EVERYTIME I TRY TO BRAKE WHILE DRIVING. EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE IT WILL HAPPEN WHEN I AM STATIONARY. WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED A LITTLE OVER A WEEK AGO I ALMOST HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WHILE I WAS COMING TO A STOP LIGHT. IT TOOK EVERYTHING I HAD IN ME TO STOP MY VEHICLE DUE TO THE BRAKES. MY HUSBAND, WHO IS A MECHANIC, LOOKED AT MY BRAKE PADS AND THEY ARE FINE. I KEEP HAVING THE SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST BADGE POP UP ON MY DASH WHEN I HAVE TROUBLE BRAKING. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS TO FIX THE VACUUM PUMP, BRAKE BOOSTER, OR WHATEVER MAYBE CAUSING THE ISSUE. THIS HAPPENS NOW EVERYTIME I'M DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, COUNTRY ROAD, MY DRIVEWAY, OR TURNING. I HAVE COMPLETELY STOPPED DRIVING MY TRUCK UNTIL THE ISSUE IS FIXED, DUE TO IT BEING A SAFETY HAZARD FOR MY FAMILY AND OTHERS. I HAVE HORSES SO I USE MY TRUCK ON A DAILY OCCURRENCE TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR NEEDS. THE PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND A RECALL NEEDS TO HAPPEN.

LOSS OF BRAKING AT LOW SPEED. THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES VERY HARD AND VEHICLE WILL NOT STOP DUE TO FAULTY VACUUM PUMP. IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE TRUCKS AND GM HAS EVEN REPLACED THE ORIGINAL PART NUMBER WITH A NEW UPDATED UNIT BUT HAS NOT RECALLED THE OLD FAULTY ONES. IF THIS WASN'T A FAULTY PART THEN WHY REPLACE IT WITH AN "UPDATED" ONE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I FEEL GM NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE IS BADLY INJURED OR KILLED.

AT LOW SPEEDS SUCH AS IN PARKING LOTS, ESPECIALLY AFTER REVERSING OR TURNING THE VEHICLE WILL OCCASIONALLY EXPERIENCE THE FOLLOWING ISSUE: DISPLAY WILL SAY THAT STABILITRACK IS ON, ADVISE THAT POWER STEERING IS REDUCED. THE AIR CONDITIONING, RADIO AND OTHER ELECTRIC SYSTEMS WILL THEN SHUT OFF. POWER STEERING IS CUT OFF ALONG WITH BRAKE PRESSURE. ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS THE ENGINE HAS ALSO SHUT OFF REQUIRING THE VEHICLE TO BE PUT INTO PARK OR NEUTRAL TO RESTART THE ENGINE.

I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TRUCK TO THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALER FOR INSPECTION AND REPAIR (NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY OF COURSE) COST OF $1400. GM IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER SHOWED ME A "BULLETIN" THEY RECEIVED TELLING THEM PROBABLE CAUSES AND PART NUMBERS. I CALLED GM. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE JUST WEREN'T ENOUGH REPORTED PROBLEMS TO ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL YET. IF YOU GOOGLE THE BRAKE PROBLEM THERE ARE NUMEROUS ACCOUNTS OF OWNERS EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM. SOME WITH NARROWLY MISSED ACCIDENTS. I HAD NO TYPE OF WARNING THAT THERE MIGHT A PROBLEM. GM SAID "SORRY, CAN'T DO ANYTHING FOR YOU. KEEP YOUR RECEIPTS IN CASE A SAFETY RECALL COMES DOWN." I TOLD GM I HOPE IT DOESN'T TAKE A NUMBER OF TRAGIC ACCIDENTS TO ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. OH, AND THE $1400 REPAIR BILL GETS ME THE SAME CRAPPY PARTS THAT FAILED!

THIS BRAKE ISSUE IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. WITH MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY GM HASN'T MADE THIS A RECALL YET. ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION MY BRAKES HAVE STIFFENED UP AND STOPPED WORKING. ONE TIME WAS AT A STOP SIGN AND I HAD TO DRIVE IN THE DITCH TO AVOID HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. ANOTHER TIME WAS IN REVERSE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT AND I NEARLY HIT A PARKED TRUCK.

WHILE AT A CHEVY DEALER TO HAVE A RECALL (17276 LOSS OF POWER STEERING) DONE ON MY TRUCK I ASKED THEM TO CHECK ON A GRINDING/WHINING NOISE FROM THE AREA OF THE BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP ON THE ENGINE. THEY SAID IN FACT IT WAS THE BRAKE VACUUM BOOSTER PUMP, THAT IT SHOULD BE FIXED OR I COULD EXPERIENCE A SUDDEN LOSS OF BRAKING POWER. THEY FURTHER EXPLAINED IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BUT THAT EXPIRED A YEAR AGO AND WOULD NOW COST ME SOME $440. AM WONDERING IF OTHER FOLKS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS. I'VE READ OF IT HAPPENING TO OTHERS ON CERTAIN INTERNET BLOG SITES. TO MY WAY OF THINKING THE BRAKES (AND I SUPPOSE LOSS OF ABS/TRACTION CONTROL) ARE AT LEAST AS IMPORTANT AS THE STEERING THAT WAS ENOUGH OF A PROBLEM TO ISSUE A RECALL. BTW THE TRUCK HAD 27,971 MILES ON IT WHEN THE PROBLEM STARTED, HARDLY 'WARN OUT'.

I'VE NOTICED MULTIPLE TIMES WHEN BACKING UP AT SLOW SPEEDS SUCH AS BACKING INTO A PARKING SPACE THAT THE BRAKES ARE VERY WEAK. I'VE HAD TO APPLY VERY HARD PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDDLE TO STOP AND VERY NEARLY HIT A LIGHT POLE ONCE. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN IN HUMID OR RAINY WEATHER.

MY BRAKE ASSIST LIGHT KEPT COMING ON, AND WHEN I WOULD BE GOING AT A LOW SPEED AND APPLYING THE BRAKE, THE BRAKE PEDDLE WOULD GET VERY HARD AND STIFF. I WOULD HAVE TO APPLY ALL POSSIBLE WEIGHT I CAN IN ORDER TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP. I WAS INFORMED TODAY THAT A VACUUM PUMP IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE, AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THIS IS BECOMING A COMMON PROBLEM THAT THEY ARE SEEING. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, AS I COULD HAVE EASILY HIT SOMEBODY, OR BEEN UNABLE TO STOP WHEN BACKING INTO MY GARAGE. IF IT HAD BEEN MY WIFE DRIVING, I DON'T KNOW IF SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET IT STOPPED WITH HOW HARD I WAS HAVING TO PRESS THE BRAKES REPEATEDLY.

FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN COMING TO A STOP LIGHT OR TRYING TO PARK IN A PARKING LOT. VERY UNSAFE. I BACKED INTO A CONCRETE WALL, LUCKILY DID NOT DAMAGE MY TRUCK. AFTER RESEARCH, MANY PEOPLE HAVE STATED IT IS A DEFECTIVE VACUUM PUMP. POOR PERFORMANCE BY GM, NOT TO MENTION THE LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE OR BACKING OF THE BAD PARTS THEY ARE PUTTING IN VEHICLES. BRAKES NOT WORKING IN A VEHICLE DUE TO A FAULTY PART IS UNSAFE.

I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE TRUCK BY PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL HARD. I IMMEDIATELY DROVE BACKWARDS AND IT DID THE SAME THING. I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE THE ISSUE WENT AWAY, MIND YOU DURING ALL OF THIS THE ABS LIGHT NEVER CAME ON EITHER. SEARCHING ONLINE I FOUND A BULLETIN IN SOME RARE SITUATIONS, A CUSTOMER MAY COMMENT ON A HARD BRAKE PEDAL OR THAT INCREASED EFFORT IS NEEDED TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL. WHILE PERFORMING NORMAL DIAGNOSTICS, FLUID MAY BE FOUND IN THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND/OR THE BOOSTER VACUUM LINE. IF ENGINE OIL IS FOUND, IT IS IMPORTANT THE FOLLOWING PARTS ARE REPLACED. IF NOT, THE CONDITION WILL RETURN. 1. VACUUM PUMP 2. VACUUM LINE BETWEEN THE BOOSTER AND THE PUMP 3. BRAKE BOOSTER 4. MASTER CYLINDER AFTER FINDING THIS AND READING ALL THE ACCOUNTS I FEEL LIKE GM NEEDS TO MAKE THIS A SPECIAL COVERAGE. THIS IS 100% SAFETY CONCERN

WHEN PUMPING THE BREAK GOING IN REVERSE OR FORWARD SLOW I LOSE ALL BRAKING POWER AND PEDAL DOES NOT PUSH DOWN AT ALL.

I WAS PULLING INTO WORK AND BRAKE PEDDLE GOT STIFF THEN NO BRAKES I WAS BAKING INTO PARKING SPOT AND CONCRETE WALL STOPPED THE TRUCK I TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID VACUUM PUMP AND BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED A SERVICE BULLETIN WAS OUT FOR IT BUT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND IT WOULD COST $1000 DOLLARS TO FIX IT 68,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK THIS HAPPENS AT 15 MPH IF SOMEONE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN FRONT OF ME IT COULD HAVE KILLED THEM

WHEN IN REVERSE AND APPLYING THE BRAKE, BRAKE PEDAL IS SO HARD TO PUSH AND WILL NOT STOP VEHICLE. ONLY HAPPENS IN REVERSE. DOESN'T MATTER IF ON INCLINE OR ON FLAT. BRAKE PEDAL CANNOT BE PUSHED AND VEHICLE STILL MOVING IN REVERSE POSITION.

Mileage: 61,124

AT LOW SPEEDS IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS EXTREMELY HARD WITH MAYBE A 1/4" OF TRAVEL. THE TRUCK BARELY STOPPED HAD TO USE THE E-BRAKE TO ASSIST THE VEHICAL TO STOP. MADE IT OVER TO THE SHOULDER OF THE FREEWAY. TURNED THE VEHICAL OFF. GOT OUT CHECKED THE BRAKES VISUALLY. EVERYTHING SEEMED OK. I STARTED THE VEHICAL UP AND WITH CAUTION TRIED MOVING THE VEHICAL AND EVERY THING WAS BACK TO NORMAL. THREE WEEKS LATER IT DID THE SAME THING PARKING ALONG THE CURB IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE.

MY BRAKE PEDAL JUST GOT HARD. IT TOOK WAS ALL I COULD DO TO STOP MY TRUCK,THANK GOODNESS I WAS IN A 35 MPH ZONE AND NOT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I WAS ON VAC AND WENT TO LOCAL DEALER TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED. MY BRAKE VACUUM PUMP FAILED & IT COST ME $504.00 TO REPAIR

Mileage: 38,919

WHEN APPLYING BRAKE WITH MOTOR AT IDLE OR CLOSE TO IT. THE BRAKE PEDAL WILL GET HARD. I CHECKED VACUUM FROM THE SEPARATE VACUUM PUMP AND ONLY HAD 9 IN HG. IT WILL BUILD AND STORE SOME VACUUM BUT WILL ALSO FADE AS IT IDLES. I REPLACED THE PUMP AND I NOW HAVE 26 IN HG AND WHEN PARKING OR DOING SHORT MANEUVERS ALL IS GOOD. I HAVE REPLACED THE PUMP AT A PRICE OF $135 AND DID THE WORK MYSELF.

Mileage: 72,000

I ATTEMPTED TO STOP THE VEHICLE AT A LOW SPEED AND WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ROCK HARD. THE TRUCK DID NOT WANT TO STOP AND TOOK A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF FORCE ON THE PEDAL TO GET THE TRUCK TO STOP.

Mileage: 77,277

MANY TIMES THE BRAKE PEDAL IS HARD WHEN DEPRESSED AND STOPPING IS VERY SLOW. MOST TIMES IT HAS HAPPENED AT LOW SPEED WHEN APPROACHING STOP LIGHTS OR PARKING. ONE TIME WAS AT OVER 65MPH. HAVE BEEN TO 2 DEALERS AND NEITHER CAN GET THE ISSUE TO REPEAT OR GET A CODE TO DIAGNOSE. PROBLEM HAPPENED FIRST AT 40K MILES AND CONTINUES NOW AT 60K MILES.

DRIVING 70 MILES AN HOUR ON THE TOLL ROAD IN A BOOSTER PUMP WENT OUT AND NO BREAKS HAD TO STOP MANUALLY FORTUNATELY THERE WERE NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME I REPLACING THE BOOSTER PUMP THE DEALER WILL NOT RESPOND THERE ADVICE WAS FOR ME TO BUY AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. 40,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK I BOUGHT IT IN 2015 DECEMBER A DEMO AT 5000 MILES ON IT AND IT NOW HAS 40,000 MILES .THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM MY USES THE TRUCK TO COMMUTE TOO WORK DAILY HAD SHE BEEN DRIVING SHE WOULD HAVE WRECKED THE TRUCK

Mileage: 40,000

PER ATTACHED WORK ORDERS, MY BRAKES WERE GOING TO THE FLOOR IN REVERSE ONLY. THEY REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER AND SAID ALL FIXED. SEVERAL WEEKS LATER HAPPENED AGAIN SO NOW REPLACED VACUUM & BOOSTER PUMP. THAT WAS 2 WEEKS AGO. STILL WORKING AND FILED COMPLAINT WITH GM BUT THEY SAID NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THESE HAVE NO MOVING OR MECHANICAL PARTS AND SHOULD PROBABLY NEVER WEAR OUT. PRIOR TO ALL THIS I WAS GETTING A REPORT TO SERVICE ELECTRONIC TRAILER BRAKES BUT HAD NOT HOOKED UP A TRAILER? WHEN FIRST POINTED THIS OUT THEY SAID COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. SECOND TIME THEY REPLACED ELECTRONIC SWITCH AS "BAD". PERSONALLY I FEEL IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ALL THE PARTS REPLACED AND FEEL STRONGLY THAT THIS IS ELECTRONIC AND RELATED TO THE ABS BRAKING SYSTEM ELECTRONICS OR MOTHER BOARD. VEHICLE WAS IN REVERSE MOVING SLOWLY. DAMAGED REAR BUMPER LAST FAIL DUE TO UNABLE TO STOP VEHICLE. IF SOMEONE WAS BEHIND ME DIRECTING ME THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THEY COULD HAVE BEEN CRUSHED OR INJURED SERIOUSLY. I FEEL THIS IS A RECALL WAITING TO HAPPEN.

NO POWER BRAKES. AT LOW SPEEDS VACUUM PUMP DOES NOT PROVIDE ENOUGH VACUUM FOR BRAKES TO WORK. VERY HARD BRAKE PEDAL FEELS LIKE YOU HAVE NO BRAKES. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN PIT5361B WHEN I SPOKE TO CHEVROLET CUSTOMER SERVICE THEY TOLD ME MY TRUCK WASN'T COVERED UNDER THIS BUT IT CLEARLY IS. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND MIGHT CAUSE MANY ACCIDENTS OR DEATHS

MY TRUCK HAS 43K MILES ON IT. DRIVING IT THE OTHER DAY ON A CITY STREET, I HEARD A SQUEALING SOUND, AND THEN THE BRAKES FAILED. I HAD TO PUSH DOWN REALLY HARD TO AVOID REAR ENDING A CAR IN FRONT OF ME ON MY WAY HOME. WHEN I GOT HOME I COULD SEE THAT THE BELT POWERING THE VACUUM ASSIST PUMP FOR THE BRAKES HAD SNAPPED. SO I WENT TO AUTOZONE AND PURCHASED ANOTHER ONE. PUT IT ONE AND STARTED THE TRUCK. THE SQUEALING WAS QUITE LOUD BECAUSE THE BELT WAS TURNING, BUT NOT THE VACUUM PUMP. SO I REMOVED THE PUMP AND DISCOVERED LARGE AMOUNTS OF METAL SHARDS IN THE OIL, WHICH NOW MEANS I CAN'T DRIVE THE TRUCK WITHOUT RISKING TAKING OUT MY ENGINE. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING ON A 3 YEAR OLD VEHICLE.

I OWN A 2014 CHEVY Z71 THAT HAD A SHERROD LIFT PACKAGE INSTALLED AT THERE FACTORY AND I HAVE BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALER FOR EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR AND THE SECOND TIME IT WAS IN THE DEALER DISCOVERED THAT ALL 4 BRAKE LINES WERE ABOUT TO BURST DUE TO EXCESSIVE WEAR AND INCORRECT INSTALLATION OF THE LIFT. MY CONCERN IS THERE ARE ALOT OF THESE TRUCKS ON THE MARKET AND HAD I DROVE IT ANOTHER WEEK IT WOULD HAVE BEEN FATAL FOR ME OR SOMEONE I HIT DUE TO BRAKE FAILURE. I FEEL THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO ADDRESSED DUE TO THE SEVERITY OF THE ISSUE. THE DEALER DEADLINED MY VEHICLE DUE TO A MAJOR SAFETY FACTOR AND CONTACTED SHERROD. AS OF YET I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM SHERROD ABOUT THE REPAIR. ITS THE THOUSANDS OF OTHER DRIVERS OF THESE VEHICLES I AM CONCERNED ABOUT. IF THE ONE I OWNED WAS DONE INCORRECTLY BUT TO SPECS ACCORDING TO SHERROD THAN IN 7000 MILES IF MINE WERE WITHIN DAYS OF BURSTING THAN SO ARE THERES. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE LINES IF SOMEONE NEEDS THEM. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE OR LIVES WILL AND ARE AT STEAK. *TR
