2016 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Service Brakes Problems

I was pulling up behind a vehicle that was entering the highway when I noticed that the driver had to yield to oncoming traffic and did not continue driving. I applied my brakes, but the vehicle did not come to a complete stop, and as a result, I struck the vehicle in front of me. My safety was put at risk, as this could have resulted in a major accident. Additionally, my car insurance premiums increased because of this incident. I was never informed about the recall, nor did I receive any phone calls or mail notifications regarding it. I only became aware of the recall recently after seeing posts on social media, which prompted me to contact my dealership. Upon doing so, I was advised that my vehicle does in fact have an active recall. I don't have any warning lamps or anything advising me of this issue.

For the last month or so, occasionally when I am going anywhere around 30-60 and I press the brakes, the vehicle will lose power for a few seconds and Stabilitrak is activated. It has locked up the brakes twice in the last 2 weeks when I was parking and could have caused an accident and if it happens when I am driving, I worry that it will cause an accident. I did some research and saw that there is a recall on my year and model. The symptoms it describes are exactly what my truck is doing but when I put in my VIN, it does not show the recall on my truck.

There is a recall (N182202780) for certain models of gm apparently, but my truck does not fall under the recall though it is the same exact problem with the brake vacuum. When pumping my brake pedal, my brakes become almost non responsive, causing me to back into my secondary vehicle.

We had a auto shop do work and left are breaks lose And they do not tighten bolts both break calibers were lose and according to the lawyer we spoke with they do not have a business licenses Triad Transmission & Auto Repair 244 NC-22, Ramseur, NC 27316 Junior akins and John kearns

Vacuum pump intermittent failure. Not always but during periods of traffic the brakes get stiff and I have a service brake assist notification come on. Then it goes away and all braking is functional and fine

ABS system and trailer brakes lights on dashboard come on and until the truck is off and sits for awhile the abs will start working again. Have had several shops look at it and have heard several different things. Started with the cheaper side of things and still no luck for a solution.

The 2016 silverado LTZ 5.3L flex fuel lifters went out at 83k miles. I was left standed and had to be towed. I have researched that this is a known GM issue with the 5.3L motors, but I was told because I was outside the warranty that I had to pay the $8000 repair bill for a new motor. This is one a GM issue and a safety issue because I had sudden no power while I was driving and with no warning. The second issue is that the brakes have a serious shake and vibration that the dealership told be they were fine, but it is very hard to stop the vehicle with a tremendous about of force I had to place on the brake peddle. The life of this vehicle has had all services done at Jim Mckay Chevrolet in Fairfax VA. I could not afford the repair and unfortunately I had to trade in the truck and buy a new truck with large monthly payments.

While tapping brakes to park in tight spaces or inching up in a drive thru, the brake pedal shudders and gets stiff. It's extremely hard to stop the truck.

Vacuum pump defect

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving 45 MPH, the steering and brake systems warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where the warning lights were cleared; however, the failure recurred. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V761000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic, Service Brakes, Electronic Stability Control (ESC). The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 138,000.

Mileage: 138,000

it is available and the brakes and steering is very stiff my safety no brakes no it hasnt been serviced at a dealership no inspections by dealership they appeared all at once on 10/11/24 no warning lamps

I was driving my 2016 silverado high country 1500 with my travel trailer when the brakes stopped working making it extremely difficult to stop at a traffic light. Dashboard says service trailer brake system. I checked fuses and connections and turn truck on and off and issue is unresolved.

Abs stabalink light come on and off, shaking of wheel when applying brakes, changed rotors last year thought that was problem had a little brakes pedal shake.

Unknown. There is times when parking my truck. I press on the brake paddle and it sound and feels like my truck jerks at first before it brakes. This has been going on for almost the 8 years I’ve own the truck. Also I have only owned the truck for 8 years and my paint is already peeling off. It doesn’t have anything to do with the brakes. I just had my truck serviced the brakes and drums. It still does it.

I have found that when pressing my brake pedal, it gets very very hard and the truck doesn’t want to stop unless I’m practically standing on the brake pedal. My mechanic has been through the entire system and believes the issue stems from a faulty Vacuum pump. This is apparently a standing recall for my 2016 Silverado but when I supply my vin number it says that I have no unrepaired recalls. At no point has Chevrolet ever notified me that this recall needed to be completed. But my problem is exactly the same as the problems noted on the recall

When turning at low speeds the steering locks up, stabilitrack warning lights come on, entire dash and information center starts blinking then vehicle chutes down causing total loss of control.

Brake pedal hard to push down. Almost drove through shop door, going slow. Heavy equipment and cdl class A driver over 40 years. Fluid is full, brake pads and related items are correct. Shut engine off waited few minutes, seemed ok. It did it again immediately, hard two other drivers try with similar results. Odd noise coming from under hood when pedal is applied. No leaks observed or detected. Pedal is solid near top no fade at all.

The failing system is the hydraulic brake system. The brakes are failing in my vehicle causing it hard to stop, and having to press extremely hard on the brake for extended periods of time in order to properly stop. As I first push on the brakes I hear a squeak. Yes my vehicle is available for inspection any time. My safety as well as my four daughters safety has been at risk of a crash due to the hardness of trying to break or the vehicle not coming to a stop in time. Yes the problem has been confirmed by a local mechanic. There have no been any inspections in regards to manufacture, police officers, etc. My warning light and another light have previously came on and will later go off, it does not stay on continuously.

While driving my truck I was in line picking up my kids from school when pulling up close to the car infront of me my brakes got extremely hard and the truck kept slowly moving forward so I pressed harder to make sure I wouldn't accidentally hit the car. I just now saw a recall on the vacuum pump which in assuming is my issue with the harding of the brakes. I have not took it any where to be investigated yet

1. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Response: Slowing down to make a left turn, Steering locked up, Electrical devices flashing, Service Stabilitrak Indicator, Chimming, Engine shut off then turned back on 2. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Response: YES truck shut off when turning across traffic 3. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Response: Has the problem been reproduced -Yes Response: confirmed by a dealer or independent service center -No 4. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Response: No 5: Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Response: Yes, chimming, then Service Stabilitrak indicator, then steering wheel lock up, engine cut out

ok the problem is with the brakes, there were four incidents when the brake pedal gets hard and its hard to stop the truck. all four incidents happened backing into my driveway after stepping on the brake pedal 4 to 5 times it would hard. and it would be difficult to stop. The problem is with the brake booster vacuum pump. There was a recall for that exact problem on 2014-2018 silverados. I called the dealership, they told me my VIN # was not one of the listed ones for the recall. the vehicle is available for inspection if requested. the vehicle has not been inspected or confirmed by a dealer. there were no warnings lamps or messagesl. Im certain its the brake booster vacuun pump.

low RPM braking failure. Power assistance fails at low RPM (around 500 - 600) requiring me to apply full body weight to brake pedal to get vehicle to slow and stop. This is a well known and documented problem, but NHTSA won't extend a recall for this issue even when issuing recalls for same problem on other GM trucks, why?

Truck does not stop have to apply hard brakes and even then truck won’t come to a complete stop

The truck has had its major service to replace all fluids at 70,000 miles. One of the services was a notable vibration and shaking through the steering wheel and on the brakes. Higher the speed the more the vibration. When brakes are applied the vibration gets worse. The vehicles brakes and rotors were checked and good. The mechanic said that the brake pump was slightly loose and it was tightened. It did slightly ease the vibration, but less that a few days later it is back to the same vibrating. The brake power feels weak and when I need to brake I feel like the vehicle is not stopping. I have owner a 2014 Silverado before this and did not have this issue. I took it back to the dealer and they did an alignment which did not help.

My 2016 Chevy Silverado had intermittent hard braking. Especially at slower speeds the brake pedal would get very hard to press and needed a lot of effort to stop. I was especially concerned having newer drivers in my household that the truck was unsafe. I nearly hit others vehicles especially at stoplights and in parking lots. The vehicle was taken to the GM dealer who said it was under recall and completed the repairs. However even though the recall repairs were completed the vehicle still continued to have hard braking issues. It was not resolved until I had the brake vacuum booster pump replaced by a 3rd party as GM was unwilling to complete the repair under the recall

Backing up truck to put a boat in the water and no brakes had put push really hard to stop the truck from going in to the lake. When moving slowly there is hardly any brakes on the truck

Trailer brake system warning has been flashing non stop for 2 weeks. I do not use or tow anything with this vehicle. Usually it locks up the steering wheel while parking my truck and shuts down the engine. Yesterday I was going 55 on the highway and the warning came on and it shut down the truck tried to put the vehicle in park and rapidly applied the breaks then the truck electrical system came back too and the truck was rolling I pull off to the shoulder to shut the truck off and turn it back on. At the time I had both my sons in the vehicle 4 years old and 9 months. Again usually it always happens when parking my truck (under 5mph) it will lock the steering wheel and totally shut down the trucks engine. Huge safety concern.

Backing up slowly with/without a trailer and have to pump the brakes to stop or stand on the brakes or pumping the brakes and having to use the emergency brake to stop, rev up the engine, put in reverse and have to do the previous steps all over again. This only happens going slowly in reverse. I was told by a mechanic it could be the vacuum pump or TSB on the vacuum pump. No warning messages display. This is a safety risk to myself and others and could cause an accident.

Barking system. it seams like when I’m in the city the brakes will not engage properly, at some point I’ve had to use the emergency brake to stop. on the freeway the brakes work good but when running at low rpm it’s like the brakes go to the floor and the truck is still moving. I went to get my brakes inspected and brake pads are still good, brake fluid was good. They told me to bring it in when the brakes fail again so they could see what was happening. Transmission was replace at 65000 miles because of a faulty torque converter

No brakes at low speed. Problem persists after recall. Needs a vacuum pump. Known problem with Chevrolet and they won’t replace it.

I was in a drive thru food chain going forward slowly. The brakes seemed hard and I had to really push hard to get the vehicle to stop. I went to a private mechanic who I trust totally. I had the front rotors and all pads replaced due to normal wear. We went on a trip with no braking issues. After returning home and backing down the driveway the brakes seemed hard again and was not stopping the vehicle properly. There were no warning lights on. This only seems to occur at very low speeds and is an alarming when it happens. I have been told by a dealership that there are no recalls on this vehicle. However looking on line I have seen videos and articles about faulty vacuum pumps and braking modules that needed reprogramming that effect braking as I have described. I don't want to take this to a dealership until I know for sure if there is a recall or not. Thanks

AFTER DRIVING FOR 4 HOURS BRAKES WONT WORK PROPERLY, BRAKING POWER DECREASES AND IS REALLY HARD TO STOP.

Was driving got up to stop sign the belt made a squaling noise and the brake pedal was hard brakes failed and i couldnt stop

My 2016 Chevy Silverado is experiencing the same low speed braking problem that occurs mostly at low speeds like driving in parking lots or stop and go traffic as defined in 19V-645 and N192268490. Driving at these speeds and braking feels like the brakes are completely failing and require excessive force on the brake pedal to stop. What do I do?

I was door dashing then a service alert came on the dash… I had pulled over to check what it meant about the trailer brake system. I have never towed or have a trailer to tow around! So continued to drive then my truck cut off then cut on while I was trying to make a turn. Then I pulled over again and luckily a mechanic said it’s wiring that’s defected in my truck and I need to get fix! I don’t have no money to get this fix , is there a way I can get some assistance with this?

I had brakes fixed from recall But they were not properly fixed they gave out on me again barely going 5 miles an hour I hit the back of some one They still are not working properly.

ABS is activated at low speed. Hard pedal and stopping is almost impossible at speeds less than 5 MPH in forward or reverse drive.

At low speeds, the brake pedal requires much more effort but doesn't engage as quickly as normal driving, so the car still rolls forward even though the brake pedal is fully depressed. This is problematic when parking or at stop signs or stop lights. Plus, it is very dangerous.

When backing out of a parking spot or driving slow breaks almost do not work Will barely stop the the vehicle

1. The brake vacuum failed. 2. Mine and other drivers safety was put at risk because the vehicle was unable to come to a complete stop even when brake pedal was fully engaged. 3. The problem has been since fixed by a mechanic, before we knew of a previous recall on this particular issue. 4. There were no warnings displayed.

Trailer break warning keeps going off. Service trailer break

On 09/22/2022, the power assist for the brakes suddenly and without warning failed during slow forward and reverse maneuvering in a parking lot, resulting in an increase in brake pedal pressure and travel to slow and stop the vehicle. Contact with a proximate vehicle was narrowly avoided. A service brakes message appeared in the central information panel between the tachometer and speedometer. Turning off the ignition and then turning the ignition switch back to start the vehicle extinguished the service brake message, and power assist for the brakes returned to nominal function. This occurrence is a safety of driving concern because of its sudden onset without warning and the need to immediately compensate with the application of significantly increased brake pedal pressure to slow and stop the vehicle. A corresponding increase in braking distance was not measured but was distinctly noticed.

At low speeds the brakes become hard and vehicle will not stop requiring increased stopping distance. It appears there is a recall for this, but my VIN does not seem to be included. Reference NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V645000.

While back 1,200 pound boat and trailer down a boat ramp, the brake pedal sank to the floor and the vehicle kept rolling. I had to pump it several times to stop it. This has happened every time I go to a boat ramp. Brakes seem to work great other than low speed backing up. I'm scared I might get pulled into the water if I ever tow whatbmy truck is rated for at 11,000 pounds. Please advise.

I had to replace the transmission and pay out of pocket because my transmission went out due to the recalls that was never sent to me and I was never notified until now.

Trailer braking system kept indicating that it needed service. While pulling an RV trailer the brakes would pulsate (especially going downhill). This resulted in several “uncomfortable” and dangerous braking situations. The module has been replaced, but the dealership kept the defective part so it is not available for inspection. The dealership saw the message being displayed and diagnosed the event prior to replacing the part. This component should have been covered under a national recall as it is a safety hazard!

Reoccurring trailer brake system alerts. Occurs when trailer is both hooked up and not hooked up.

Service trailer brake warning system activating intermittently without a trailer attached. Dashboard message center displays "service trailer brake system" alarm chime activation sounds. Repair facility diagnostics indicate the wiring harness between the BCM’s and brake system has a fault / defect issue. I was advised this is common issue with this vehicle and presents a severe safety concern with a braking system and require immediate repair for my safety. The repairs are not covered under a TSB or recall notice from Chevrolet.

Service trailer brake system and stalilitrak warning continually pops up due to faulty wiring

Trailer service brake/ starilitrak

I was trying to stop in reverse, no pedal on braking...put in drive it had pedal and a light came on in dash to " service brake assist"

The trailer brake system dings on the dash board constantly, causing the brakes to malfunction and studder which is causing an increased risk of for safety incidents to happen.

I have tooken my 2016 Silverado 5.3 that I bought brand new 4 times to get fixed for a brake recall, it is still not fixed even though in their records it’s fixed, I have had several near misses but I am always ready with the e brake. The brakes get super hard out of no where and I can’t brake at all. Recently I hit 2 vehicles because of this recall. I was backing out of my home and when I tried to brake I hit a car parked in the side of the road, if they would’ve been in the car I would’ve killed the owner of the vehicle for sure. I put it in drive to get out of her car and the brake didn’t work again and crashed into the vehicle in front of me again because of the brake recall. I was injured both time and I am paying for these peoples cars and other stuff. I have been talking to several lawyers just haven’t decided which one I am going to go with. I am scared for my life to drive that truck now and it is sacred to me and my family as my dad died from COVID and it was his truck

"Trailer Brake System" (TBS) warning indicator malfunction. Out of nowhere the TBS warning message and chime started malfunctioning. The malfunction is irregular and often so frequent the vehicle is un-drivable. The rapid warning display and chime is very distracting and presents a very significant distraction resulting in unsafe operation of the vehicle. I have multiple videos of the malfunction, ranging from and occasional chime to a constant chime. Unfortunately they are too large to upload.

Braking ability significantly decreases when in reverse and also sometimes when traveling at very low speeds like pulling into the driveway or into a parking spot. The brake will be fully applied, and vehicle will continue to move. This can cause a very dangerous collision and potentially cause death or serious injury to the vehicle passengers and/or passengers of vehicles encountered. The 'service brake assist' indicator will light up on the dash at times, other times there is no warning light when it happens. I bought this vehicle a little less than 30 days ago (on 12/20/2021) and have had this happen to me multiple times. I have not had it to the dealer yet, but have an appointment set to have it looked at. My father (a diesel mechanic) seems to think it is due to vacuum loss of the brakes. The vehicle can be available for inspection upon request.

At lower speeds the brake pedal become stiff making it extremely difficult to stop. Sometimes the antilock breaks will kick in to help, but sometimes that doesn't even stop the truck. On several occasions I have nearly hit other cars because the brakes fail to engage. On one occasion when parking in a multi story parking garage, the truck almost plowed through the side barrier because it wouldn't stop. The brakes also fail when going in reverse at low speeds. It appears that the brake assist vacuum pump is failing as has been reported by a number of other complaints. The brake pads and rotors are all in good shape and the truck has only 68,000 miles.

While driving slowly in parking lot, lost braking. I had minimal braking for the next 5 minutes. Message on dashboard said SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST. Which indicates a problem with the brake boost assist system. Further investigation indicates a re-programing of the braking software may be needed. i would like to see this issue of re-programing the braking software a re-call on my 2106 truck. Ref: NHTSA - 19V645 & 20V603

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at 5 MPH from a complete stop, the brake pedal was depressed but went all the way to the floorboard and hesitated to respond, causing a 3 feet delay in stopping distance. The brake assist warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure had been reoccurring while driving and whenever he would depress the brake pedal several times. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V645000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

Mileage: 130,000

Loss of brakes at low speeds, may require pumping of brakes. Had an update performed and thought bit was corrected. Have experienced it 4 or 5 times since. Vehicle continues to roll a few feet before stopping. Corrects itself after restart of vehicle.

I have a hard brake pedal at low or idle speeds. First noticed it while trying to park in a parking deck while on vacation. I almost ran into the wall. I looked online for the cause and noticed there is a recall for this issue for our year truck. I contacted the closest dealer but they informed me that my vin number did not pull up the recall. We have a "Texas" edition. I'm wondering if this edition has the same vacuum brake assist pump being recalled but has not been reported.

Hard brakes. If I press on the brake peddle 2-3 times while making a stop the peddle becomes stiff and difficult. ABS kicks in. Truck was taken into the servicing dealership under the recall but was told there was no problem. It has continued ever since. So is this still under the recall or am I on my own?

I have a 2016 chevy silveradi 1550 LT crew cab when you r driving and apply the brakes they get soft and it's hard to stop and gonna cause a accident the brakes go like into anti lock system and hard to come to a stop .already replaced brakes and rotors no help .and the transmission in the truck is slipping and had all service done now in garage cause the torque convertor is going machenic said cause of the cheap material gm is using this is a big health concern .and makes your rpm go up and get like the tranny is slipping no early sign just boom stuck along the highway .transmission only has 98000 on it .something needs to b done about this before alot of people get hurt

Brakes fail at low speed. I have seen numerous reports of this problem dating back to 2018 and nothing seems to be happening with a recall. This is a very danger problem that needs to be addressed immediately. GM service confirmed there is no recall on this common problem. Although there has been no accident, it has been close and pedestrians are at particular risk.

Intermittent reduction in braking power while performing parking maneuvers (parallel parking). Feels like loss of power brakes requiring very heavy force to stop vehicle - very unnerving. Vehicle was taken to dealership for inspection and dealer replaced brake pads and rotors on front & back. Dealer claims issue is unrelated to recall 19V645 & 20V603 but I suspect it is as symptoms are identical.

I am writing in concern to a brake pump malfunction and air bag sensor failure. The vehicle is available for inspection and has been inspected/confirmed by dealerships. The brake pump is bad and falls under the recall by GM but because it was over the mileage threshold, it didn’t qualify. The brakes don’t work well at all. The air bag sensor in the passenger seat went bad and now shut off all my airbags and GM won’t add my vehicle to the recalls they have already issued on other vehicles for the same issues. My safety is at risk with my lack of air bags for us. Others’ safety is risk due to the bad brake pump that I cannot guarantee will continue working, especially upon an immediate need to brake in any emergency situation. I have contact the manufacturer 2 separate times and they refuse to include my vehicle in their safety recalls. This is a serious matter. Someone could get hurt or worse. I had no warnings or indications that these were issues until they became one. I had to get quotes of $1200 to get these two issues resolved and don’t understand how this is a known problem but they refuse to help me in any way. I’m not asking for a replacement truck or engine. Just functioning safety features!!! The truck is only 5 years old.

1) Brake system, yes. 2) The vehicle did not stop when the brake pedal was depressed (known issue with GM). 3) Yes, GM provided an independent investigator and confirmed the brake system failure. 4) Yes. 5) No. On May 29, 2021, at approximately 9:35 AM, I was traveling Northbound on Interstate 5 and exiting the freeway on Highway 46. As I exited the freeway, there was slow moving traffic, I began to brake and experienced no braking at all and the ABS kicked in. At that time, I was traveling at approximately 10 miles an hour when the impact accorded with the vehicle in front of me.

Believe the vacuum pump is faulty. Hard braking g or no brakes when going slow or go in reverse.

I WAS PULLING A TRAILER AND WAS TRYING TO BACK IT UP TO PARK IT AND I LOST MY ABILITY TO BRAKE. IT WAS SCARY ASKS DANGEROUS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ALL THEY DID IS REPROGRAM IT AND NOT ADDRESS THE ACTUAL VACUUM PUMP THAT HAS THE SLUDGE BUILD UP ON THE SCREEN. NEEDLESS TO SAY, EVEN AFTER THE RECALL, I AM STILL EXPERIENCING BRAKE LOSS AT LOW SPEED. I'M HEY DISAPPOINTED IN GM. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY '15 AND '16 SILVERADO'S. I'M NOT SURE IF I'LL BUY ANOTHER GM VEHICLE AGAIN IF MY SAFETY IS COMPROMISED AND THEY WILL ONLY BANDAID THE PROBLEM

Mileage: 55

I HAD A RECALL ON 2 DIFFERENT TRUCKS (15 & 16 SILVERADO 1500) AND THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I SOLD THE 15 BUT CURRENTLY STILL HAVE THE 16. I HAVE REACHED OUT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S BEEN TOO LONG SINCE I HAD THE RECALL ADDRESSES (NOV 2020) SO I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE $180 DIAGNOSIS FEE. MY TRUCK IS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING IT WAS DOING BEFORE. EVEN AFTER THE DEALERSHIP "FIXED"THE PROBLEM, I COULD ALL NOTICE THE ISSUE. I LOVE GM BUT I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE EFFORTS THEY HAVE PUT FORWARD TO RESOLVE THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I'LL NOT SURE IF MY NEXT VEHICLE WILL BE A GM PRODUCT

TL*THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. THE CONTACT STATED WAS DRIVING 25 MPH WHEN THE BRAKE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE HAD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH BOTH FEET AS IT TRAVELLED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP AND DECELERATED IN SPEED WHICH CAUSED THE CONTACT TO REAR-END A VEHICLE, WHICH ALSO CAUSED THAT VEHICLE TO REAR-END A VEHICLE AS WELL. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED AND NO MEDICAL TREATMENT ACQUIRED. THERE WAS NO POLICE REPORT FILED. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ABS FAILED TO ENGAGE. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THEIR RESIDENCE. THE CONTACT INSURANCE COMPANY HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A TOW YARD, WHERE THEY INSPECTED THE VEHICLE DAMAGES AND DEEMED THE VEHICLE A TOTAL LOSS. THE LOCAL DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT HE BELIEVED THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V578000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) AND 16V069000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000. *DT

AT LOW SPEEDS MY BRAKES STOP WORKING. THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES VERY STIFF AND I HAVE TO USE BOTH FEET PUSHING DOWN AS HARD AS I CAN FOR THE VEHICLE TO STOP. ALSO,THE HEAD LIGHT SWITCH INSIDE THE VEHICLE DOES NOT WORK. WHEN I TURNED THE DIAL OFF OF THE AUTO LIGHTS I SAW SMOKE COMING OUT FROM BEHIND THE DIAL.

Mileage: 117,000

A LOT OF FORCE NEEDED TO BREAK AT LOWER SPEED

Mileage: 70,000

WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS THE VEHICLE SOMETIMES CONTINUES TO ROLL EVEN THOUGH THE BRAKES ARE FULLY PUSHED. THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN INTERMITTENTLY AND IS NOTICEABLE WHEN PULLING INTO THE GARAGE. THE BRAKE PADS WERE RECENTLY EVALUATED DURING A ROUTINE SERVICE AT A GM DEALERSHIP.

Mileage: 83,000

INCREASED BRAKE PEDAL EFFORT CAUSED BY FAULTY BRAKE VACUUM PUMP. STIFF BRAKE PEDAL AT LOW SPEEDS AND INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE

Mileage: 41,500

LOSE OF BREAKING POWER AT LOW SPEED. I LOST ALL BREAKING POWER TRYING TO MANEUVER IN A PARKING GARAGE AND PARKING LOT. THERE ARE NO LIGHTS THAT COME ON DURING OR AFTER THIS. I HAVE HAD IT HAPPEN 3 TIMES ALMOST RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE AND OTHERS. THE BREAK PEDDLE STIFFENS AND PROVIDES ALMOST NO BREAKING.

Mileage: 65,000

AT SLOWER SPEED THE BRAKING SYSTEM SEEMS TO FAIL. THE BRAKE PEDAL NEEDS TO BE PRESSED HARD BUT SINKS AND THE CAR DOES NOT STOP. THIS IS ONLY HAPPENS AT SPEEDS LESS THAN 15 MILES PER HOUR. IT FEELS LIKE THE CARS DOES NOT STOP AND I HAVE TO PUT MUCH MORE PRESSURE THAN USUAL. I USUALLY PUT CAR IN PARK AND RESTART IT AND IT IS FINE UNTIL THE NEXT TIME. IT HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES IN LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. I DID TAKE INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG

Mileage: 6,700

VEHICLE BRAKES BECOME VERY HARD TO DEPRESS MAKING IT HARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE I FIND THIS HAPPENS MORE AT SLOWER SPEEDS AND IN REVERSE

Mileage: 43,000

THE BRAKE PEDAL ON MY TRUCK TURNS REAL HARD AND THE BRAKES DON'T SEAM TO ENGAGE AS USUAL THIS HAPPENS AT LOW SPEEDS OR IN A DOWNHILL. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE HIGHWAY ON I15 COMING TO NEVADA FROM CALIFORNIA ON A DOWNHILL WITH TRAFFIC PRESENT AND AT LOW SPEEDS. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED IN A DRIVE THRU AND A PARKING LOT TRUCK WAS IN MOTION AND AT LOW SPEEDS I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL TURNED HARD/STIFF AND MAKES A SCREECHING SOUND. THE TRUCK DOES COME TO A STOP BUT TRAVELS MORE THAN USUAL WHEN BRAKE PEDAL IS NORMAL.

Mileage: 180

PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT AT WORK AT LOW SPEED WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKE TO BACKUP I NOTICED THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY HARD. I PUT MY TRUCK IN REVERSE TO BACK INTO A PARKING SPOT, THE BRAKE WAS VERY HARD AND WOULDN'T STOP. WHEN HIT THE FENCE THE TRUCK FINALLY STOPPED. CALLED THE DEARLER WHERE I GOT THE TRUCK, THEY SAID THERE'S A RECALL AND THE BRAKE SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED BUT THAT WASN'T GOING TO FIX IT. 2019 I TOOK THE TRUCK IN @ 60,000 MILES, THEY DID A REPROGRAM AND SAID THEY COULDN'T DO ANY THING ELSE UNLESS THERE WAS ANOTHER BRAKE RECALL. THE BAD THING ABOUT THIS WHOLE BRAKE PROBLEM IS GM KNOWS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND WON'T FIX IT. GM HAS AND WILL FIX THE PROBLEM IF YOU PAY 12 TO 1,600 DOLLARS. SINCE THEY DID THE REPROGRAM I HAVE 80, 000 MILES ON THE TRUCK AND AT LOW SPEED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR IN PARKING LOTS THE BRAKE IS VERY HARD AND THE ABS SYSTEM WILL ACTIVATE. SAME PROBLEM DIFFERENT DAY. I NEED NEW BOMBERS NOW. I GUESS GM IS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET HURT.

WHILE DRIVING AT PARKING SPEED OR DRIVE THROUGH SPEED MY BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD AND I LOSE BRAKE. I'VE ALMOST WRECKED A FEW TIMES ALREADY BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE.

I GOT A RECALL DONE BUY A CHEVY DEALERSHIP IN STORM LAKE IOWA, SO THEY SAY THEY DID IT BUT AFTER A FEW MONTHS OF DRIVING I NOTICED THE MY TRUCK STARTED BREAKING DIFFERENT AT LOW SPEEDS JUST LIKE THE RECALL WAS FOR THE RECALL NUMBER IS N192268490. JUST DIDN'T KNOW IF THERE WAS SOMETHING I COULD DO SO I DON'T HAVE TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED WHEN IT'S NOT MY FAULT THE BREAKS WON'T WORK LIKE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TOO!

Mileage: 86,000

WHEN I APPLY MY BRAKES AT LOW SPEEDS OR HAVE TO APPLY A DECENT AMOUNT OF PRESSURE I HEAR A HIGH PITCHED NOISE AND MY BRAKES GET HARD AND I HAVE A HARD TIME STOPPING. I ALSO FEEL A CATCH AND RELEASE KIND OF JUMP IN THE PETAL WHEN THIS HAPPENS LIKE THE BRAKES CATCH THEN RELEASE.

WHEN I PUT MY VEHICLE IN REVERSE WHEN BACKING DOWN AN INCLINE MY BREAK PEDAL GETS HARD AND THE VEHICLE TAKES LONGER TO STOP AND THE STEEPER THE INCLINE THE HARDER IT IS TO STOP THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN I AM IN REVERSE ALSO THE BRAKE PEDDLE HAS SOME VIBRATION WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I READ YOUR ARTICLE ON GM VEHICLES HAVING THIS SIMILAR PROBLEM I RAN MY VIN NUMBER FOR A RECALL AND NOTHING CAME UP FOR MY VEHICLE. ALSO IF THIS IS A RECALL ISSUE I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM THE MANUFACTURE.

AFTER DRIVING THE TRUCK FOR ABOUT 20 MIN, THE TRUCK LOOSE A LITTLE BIT OF POWER THEN THE BREAKS BEGIN TO GET HARDER AND HARDER TILL THE FRONT BREAKS LOCK UP, AFTER THEY LOCK UP I HAVE TO PARK IT FOR ATLEAST 10 MIN THEN YOU FEEL THEM UNLOCK AND YOU CAN DRIVE AGAIN, SOMETIMES ONLY A COUPLE MORE MIN OR TILL THE NEXT DAY, HAD IT INTO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP WERE THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG EXCEPT SOME OLD STORED CODES, I SHOWED THEM THE CODE I KEPT GETTING AND THEY SAID THEY DIDNT SO MINE COULDNT BE RIGHT, BUT TO BRING IT BACK IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. TONIGHT I PULLED INTO WORK, I WORK MIDNIGHTS AND MY FRONT ROTORS WERE GLOWING LAVA RED. BREAKS LOCKED UP AFTER THE STABILATRAK SERVICE LIGHT COMES ON

I HAD JUST PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND POSITIONED THE TRUCK TO BACK IT IN INTO A PARKING SPACE, WHEN THE TRUCK WAS PUT INTO REVERSE MY BRAKES BECAME VERY HARD AND I HAD NO STOPPING POWER. I PUT THE TRUCK IN DRIVE AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED, I THEN TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AFTER PUTTING IT IN PARK. WAITED A FEW MOMENTS APPLIED PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES AND STARTED IT. WHEN THE ENGINE TURNED OVER THE BRAKES SOFTENED WITH A VIBRATION, AND I ACCELERATED FORWARD TO TAKE IT AROUND THE PARKING LOT AND THE BRAKES SEEMED TO BE WORKING AGAIN. I ALSO GOT A SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST NOTICE ON MY DASH WHEN I STARTED THE TRUCK THIS MORNING. UPON INVESTIGATING, SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE? I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN MY TRUCK NOW AND I DO NOT EVEN WANT TO DRIVE MY CHILDREN AROUND.

RPM INCREASES BETWEEN 4 AND 5.5K BUT UNABLE TO ACCELERATION AFTER DESCENSION FROM HILL WHILE DRIVING ON I-17. IT APPEARS MY TRANSMISSION/GEARS SLIP FOLLOWING HILL DESCENTS. ON 6 OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING TO AND FROM MOAB, UTAH ON AUG 9-10, THE ENGINE REVS UP TO 4.5 - 5.5K AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL/DECLINE. I COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE GEAR OR PICK UP SPEED UPON ACCELERATION. BRAKING DID NOT STOP THE REVS. I JUST KEPT MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR UNTIL THE GEAR EVENTUALLY KICKED IN. OTHERWISE THE TRUCK RIDE AND DRIVE IS AMAZING AND NO OTHER PROBLEM EXCEPT GETTING ANNOYING GEAR CLUNKS NOW AND THEN, EVERY SINCE I PURCHASED IT. BACK IN 2017 MIDWAY CHEVY SAID THAT IS NOT A PROBLEM. WELL, I DROVE MY TRUCK FOR THE FIRST TIME YESTERDAY SINCE THE INCIDENT. THE PROBLEM REOCCURRED WHILE DESCENDING A VERY SMALL HILL IN ANTHEM. THIS TIME SPAN WAS MUCH SHORTER. I WANT TO MENTION THAT I HAVE DRIVEN MY TRUCK UP I-17 FROM ANTHEM, AZ TO FLAGSTAFF AND BEYOND AT LEAST 20 TIMES IN THE LAST 4 YEARS AND NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS. I DO NOT HAVE A FLOOR MAT OR ANYTHING ON THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR OF THE TRUCK. THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF TRANS FLUID LEAKING (ON GARAGE FLOOR ETC.), NO WAY TO CHECK MY TRANS FLUID LEVEL. NO MESSAGES SHOWED UP IN THE DIC (DRIVER INFO CTR), OR ON THE DASHBOARD INSTRUMENT CLUSTER (MESSAGE CENTER) (I.E.: TRANSMISSION, SPEED, SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST, ETC.), NO DIAGNOSTIC WARNING AND THE AUGUST MONTHLY DIAGNOSTIC REPORT DID NOT REFLECT ANY PROBLEMS. I DON'T THINK ANY FEATURES WERE ACCIDENTALLY TURNED ON WHILE DRIVING (I.E.: TOW/HAUL, HDC, GRADE BRAKING ETC.) . THE PROBLEM CONTINUED AFTER TURNING TRUCK OFF AND RESTARTING, WHICH SHOULD DISENGAGE MOST FEATURES. I AM A 70 YEAR OLD WOMAN AND HAVEN;T DRIVEN THE TRUCK HARD OR NEVER HAULED ANYTHING. I AM 2K MILES OUT OF WARRANTY. WILL NEVER PAY 53K FOR A VEHICLE WITH SUCH A LOUSY DRIVE-TRAIN WARRANTY.

I WAS BACKING IN TO A LAKE TO PULL MY BOAT OUT AND ALMOST WENT RIGHT IN THE LAKE. EMERGENCY BRAKE SAVED ME. THIS IS THE MOST DANGEROUS SITUATION I HAVE EVER BEEN IN IN MY 56 YEARS OF LIVING. I AM FILING A LAW SUIT.

IN A PARKING GARAGE AND TRYING TO MANEUVER INTO A PARKING STALL. THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY HARD. THE ABS LIGHT FLASHED MOMENTARILY AND WENT OUT. THERE WERE NO POWER BRAKES AND VERY LITTLE EFFECT TO STANDING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. PUT VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTARTED IT. CONTINUED TO HAVE NO OR LIMITED BRAKES. WENT ON TO ANOTHER PARKING STALL WHERE NO ONE ELSE AROUND. CREPT INTO SPOT. WHEN ARRIVED BACK FROM TRIP, BRAKES WERE FINE. CALLED LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED VACUUM PUMP FREE OF CHARGE. HAS ONLY HAPPENED 2 TIMES SINCE THEM. ALL IN PARKING LOTS AT VERY LOW SPEEDS.

WHEN SWITCH FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE AND MOVE FORWARD THAN STEP ON BREAKS IT'S GETS HARDER AND DON'T STOP THE VEHICLE. ALSO IT'S HAPPEN TO ME ON THE FREEWAY WHEN I WAS SLOWING DOWN IN TRAFFIC AND IT'S COME TO STOP AND SLOWLY MOVING THE VEHICLE MY BRAKES WAS TOO HARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE , I ALMOST GOING TO HIT THE OTHER VEHICLE.

Mileage: 36,050

I DROVE ALMOST 5 HRS AWAY TO TAKE MY FAMILY ON A VACATION AND WHEN I PULLED INTO THE HOTEL I ALMOST COULDNT STOP AND NOTICED MY PARKING ASSIST SERVICE WAS ON ON THE DASH. I TRIED BACKING UP AND I ALMOST COULD NOT STOP FROM BACKING INTO ANOTHER CAR. AND IT KEEPS DOING IT EVERY NOW AND AGAIN. THE BRAKES ARE HARD TO PUSH AND IT FEELS LIKE ARE PALPATATING AND ALSO FEEL LIKE SOMETHING IS UNDER MY BRAKE BC IT BARELY PUSHES IN.

TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR THE RECALL ON BRAKES. DEALER PERFORMED THE RECALL SERVICE. BRAKES STILL EXHIBIT PROBLEMS. BRAKES BECOME MUSHY AT LOW SPEED AFTER APPLYING BRAKES GENTLY, THEN MOVING FORWARD SLIGHTLY AT LOW SPEED BRAKES SEEM TO COLLAPSE AND EXHIBIT A LOW GRUMBLING NOISE. PADS AND ROTORS ARE GOOD, SO NOT THE ISSUE. IT LEAVES ME WONDERING IF RECALL WAS DONE OR DONE CORRECTLY. *TR

USUALLY AFTER MORE THAN ONE STOP WHEN MOVING LESS THAN 5 MPH WITH FOOT OF THE GAS (LIKE WHEN PARKING) BREAK PEDAL REQUIRES EXTREME PRESSURE TO STOP VEHICLE.THIS AFTER BRAKE SOFTWARE WAS RE-PROGRAMMED DURING A RECALL. WHEN BACKING A 6000 LB TRAILER (WITHOUT ELECTRIC BRAKES TRAILER HAS HYDRAULIC SURGE BRAKES) DOWN A HILL IT BECOMES DANGEROUS! TO BACK A TRAILER DOWN A HILL YOU MUST PUT THE TRUCK IN NEUTRAL, USE YOUR RIGHT FOOT TO KEEP THE ENGINE RPM UP AND BRAKE WITH YOUR RIGHT FOOT. THIS ALLOWS THE VACUUM PUMP TO SUPPLY ENOUGH VACUUM FOR THE POWER BRAKES TO WORK COMBINE THIS WITH WATCHING AND GUIDING THE TRAILER AND IT CAUSES EXTREME WORRY. IF YOU DON;T KEEP THE ENGINE RPM UP TO PRODUCE VACUUM YOU CANNOT SAFELY THE TRAILER, IT WILL TRAVEL MUCH FURTHER BEFORE STOPPING AND REQUIRE A MASSIVE EFFORT ON THE PEDAL TO STOP THE TRUCK AND TRAILER. THIS HAPPENED EVERY TIME I LAUNCH MY BOAT IN 2019. TRUCK NOW HAS ABOUT 51000 MILES ON IT. OTHER THAN THE BRAKES IT HAS BEEN PROBLEM FREE. *TR

Mileage: 51,000

WHEN STOPPING VEHICLE THE BREAK PEDAL HAS BEEN VIBRATING AND GOING TO THE FLOOR FOR A FEW DAYS. THIS USUALLY RESOLVES AFTER A FEW MINUTES. HOWEVER TODAY THE BREAK PEDAL VIBRATED AND WENT TO THE FLOOR AND HAS NOT COME BACK UP. THIS IS NOT ALLOWING THE TRUCK TO STOP IN REVERSE OR FORWARD MOTION. WHEN PUT IN REVERSE AND THEN PRESSURE APPLIED TO BREAK THE PEDAL APPEARS TO STAY ON THE FLOOR OF TRUCK. WHEN PLACED IN DRIVE THE PEDAL WILL HAVE SOME PRESSURE BEHIND IT BUT THEN WILL ABRUPTLY GO TO FLOOR AND NOT ALLOW TRUCK TO STOP. THIS OCCURRED BEFORE THE LAST BREAK RECALL ON THIS TRUCK. RECALL WAS COMPLETED AND THEN A FEW MONTHS LATER THE SAME ISSUE HAS OCCURRED. THERE IS ADEQUATE BREAK FLUID IN RESERVOIR AND DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE LEAKING. BREAK PADS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION. THIS SEEMS TO BE EITHER AN INTERNAL COMPUTER ISSUE OR AND ISSUE WITH THE BREAK PEDAL ITSELF. THIS HAPPENED WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT AT A SLOW RATE OF SPEED.

Mileage: 58,634

BRAKE PEDAL TURNED ROCK SOLID. VERY DIFFICULT TO BRAKE. THIS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE I WAS DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY. ALMOST CRASHED INTO ANOTHER CAR APPROACHING THE STOP LIGHT. GM NEEDS TO RECALL THE VACUUM PUMP ASAP. IT'S DANGEROUS!

MY 2016 SILVERADO WAS ALREADY RECALLED FOR THE BRAKES, I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WEBER CHEVROLET, AND THEY SAID THEY FIXED THE RECALL. THIS WAS SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. YESTERDAY I STARTED UP MY TRUCK AND A BRAKE SERVICE MESSAGE APPEARED, WHEN I PUT THE TRUCK INTO DRIVE AND WENT DOWN THE STREET THE BRAKES WERE MUSH, THEY WERE ALMOST UNRESPONSIVE AT THE LOW SPEED I WAS GOING. I HAD TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL TO ALMOST THE FLOOR AT THE STOP AND HEARD A LOUD GROWLING SOUND FROM EITHER UNDERTAKE HOOD OR THE WHEELS. SO WHAT EVER THEY WORK DID FOR THE RECALL NOTICE DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN YOUR RECALLS FOR THIS 2016 TRUCK.

IT HAPPENS IN REVERSE MOVING SLOW AND ITS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN I'M BACKING BOAT IN BOAT RAMP AND THE BRAKES FAIL TO A POINT THAT I HAVE TO STAND ON THE PETAL AND ENGAGE PARKING BRAKE SO I DON'T LOSE MY TRUCK AND TRAILER INTO THE WATER. I HAPPENED ONCE ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO BUT DIDN'T DO IT AGAIN TIL A MARCH 1 AND HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES SINCE. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION.

SO I CALLED MY DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT FROM AND THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON MINE BUT TO BRING IT IN ANYWAY.

I OWEN CHEVY 1500 2016. I RECEIVED RECALL ON THE TRUCK WHEN SAW IT I WAS SURPRISED DO TOO I GOT TO TWO CAR ACCIDENT BEFORE I RECEIVE THE RECALL. AFTER CONTACTING GM MOTOR THEY SAID THE IS THE SOFTWARE NEED UPDATE HOWEVER IT DIDN'T END THERE STILL HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES AND GM DENIED ANY INVOLVEMENT OF THE TWO ACCIDENT.

2 BRAKE SPECIFIC PROBLEMS. 1.) BACKING OUT MY DRIVEWAY (SLOPED DOWNHILL)AT LOW SPEED, I HEAR THE THE VEHICLES ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ENGAGE. CAUSING SLOW STOPPING DISTANCE. IT DOES NOT TRIGGER ANY WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH. 2.) WHILE BACKING UP INTO A PARKING SPACE, VEHICLES BRAKE PEDAL BECAME ROCK HARD AND HAD TO USE GREAT PRESSURE WITH BOTH FEET TO STOP VEHICLE. I PUT IT IN DRIVE JUST TO SEE ANY DIFFERENCE- SAME ROCK HARD PEDAL. PARKED, SHUT VEHICLE OFF, AND WENT INTO RESTAURANT. AFTER AN HOUR INSIDE, RETURNED TO VEHICLE TO GO HOME. BRAKE PEDAL WAS BACK TO NORMAL.

Mileage: 77,300

I EXPERIENCED A HARD BRAKE PEDAL AT LOW SPEED WITH MINIMAL STOPPING PRIOR TO THE VEHICLE BEING RECALLED FOR THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP ISSUE THAT WAS TO REPROGRAM THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE. THE RECALL HAS BEEN PERFORMED IN EARLY DECEMBER 2019 AND SINCE THE RECALL I'VE EXPERIENCED THE HARD BRAKE PEDAL WITH INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE SEVERAL TIMES AT LOW SPEED AND IN ONE PARTICULAR INSTANCE A TRAILER WAS IN TOW AS I WAS MANEUVERING INTO A PARKING SPOT. THE RECALL IN MY OPINION WAS NOT THE ACTUAL SOLUTION TO A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS ISSUE.

THIS FOR 2016 CHEVROLET SIVERADO LTZ D/C 5.3L 4X4 T/A1500 MODEL CK15543 PURCHASE DATE: 05/26/16 AS OF THE LAST PAST YEAR I'VE EXPERIENCE STEERING CONTROL FAILURE, STABILITY CONTROL FAILURE AND BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE. THE TRUCK CAN NOT BE DRIVEN SAFELY. VISIT DEALER ABOUT 10 TIMES AND THEY DON'T HAVE A CLUE OF HOW TO FIX THIS SAFETY PROBLEMS. THIS VEHICLE IS LISTED UNDER RECALL BY GM AND DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX.

THERE IS A RECALL FOR MY VEHICLES BRAKES, I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THIS SERVICED AS MY BRAKES COMPLETELY WENT OUT ON ME WHILE DRIVING MY CHILDREN THIS MORNING, I SPENT HOURS ON THE PHONE TRYING TO GET DE LUZ TO UNDERSTAND THAT I CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE MY VEHICLE ON THE ROAD AS MY BRAKES DO NOT WORK CORRECTLY.. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY ONLY HELP I COULD GET WAS IF I DROVE MY TRUCK 80 MILES TO THE NEAREST DEALER WHERE I WOULD PROBABLY END UP STRANDED AS THEY ALSO WOULD NOT COVER ANY RENTAL VEHICLE. NOT TO MENTION, AFTER CALLING THIS AUTHORIZED DEALER DIRECTLY, THEY HAD INFORMED ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SCHEDULE MY SERVICE FOR AT LEAST 3-4 WEEKS FROM NOW. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I HAVE A VALID AND VERIFIED RECALL FOR A SAFETY HAZARD AND MY ONLY OPTION IS TO "DRIVE IT AND TRY NOT TO CRASH (WITH MY CHILDREN- AND THEN FIGURE OUT MY OWN RIDE 80 MILES BACK TO MY HOME AND THEN BE CAR-LESS FOR WHO KNOWS HOW LONG??)

APPROACHING INTERSECTION STOP LIGHT, TRIED TO APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR NO BRAKES AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. WAS FORCED TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP BUT STILL HAD COLLISION WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. AFTER THE DEALERSHIP REVIEWED THE BRAKES IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE RIGHT FRONT BRAKE CALIPER MOUNTING BOLT WAS MISSING WHICH ALLOWED THE CALIPER TO ROTATE OFF OF THE ROTOR AND CLEAR THE PISTON FROM THE ROTOR SURFACE AND THEN THE PISTON WAS FORCED OUT OF THE CYLINDER AND LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID RESULTED.

WELL THE OTHER DAY WHILE DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT AT VERY LOW SPEEDS, MY BRAKE PEDAL STARTED VIBRATING AND GOT REALLY HARD, I WAS BARELY ABLE TO PRESS THE BRAKE. I SCARY SITUATION THAT I KNOW IS HAPPENING TO A LOT MORE PEOPLE WHO OWN GM TRUCKS. I HOPE YOU GUYS MAKE GM DO A SECOND RECALL FOR 2014-18 GM TRUCKS, TO REPLACE THE BRAKE BOOSTER PUMPS.

LOST VACUUM ON BRAKES AT LOW SPEED OR STOPPED. WAS INFORMED BY CHEVEROLET DEALERSHIP THAT THE PART I NEED IS ON BACKORDER AND COULD NOT BE FIXED AT THIS TIME. WAS ALSO TOLD THAT GM DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS PROBLEM TO CAUSE THE TRUCK TO BE UNSAFE EVEN THOUGH I DO NOT FEEL SAFE. THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THIS PART BECAUSE THEY WERE HAVING SO MANY ISSUES WITH IT. IN MY OPINION IT SHOULD BE A RECALL AND THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH THE PART NEEDED TO KEEP MY TRUCK SAFE TO DRIVE. THE DEALERSHIP MADE ME SIGN SOMETHING TO BE ABLE TO LEAVE WITH MY TRUCK. THANKS YOU FOR CONSIDERING THIS ISSUE.

TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR THE BRAKE ISSUE RECALL BECAUSE I WAS EXPERIENCING LOSS OF BRAKES AT LOW SPEEDS. I WOULD PRIMARILY SEE THIS WHEN STUCK IN SLOW MOVING TRAFFIC OR BACKING MY TRUCK UP TO THE TRAILER.....ETC. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE RECALL WHICH THEY SUPPOSEDLY PERFORMED AND FIXED. WELL 2 MONTHS LATER I AM STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. I WAS PULLING INTO THE GARAGE THE OTHER DAY AND IT WOULDN'T STOP WHICH CAUSED ME TO HIT MY DIRT BIKES SITTING IN FRONT OF ME. ANOTHER TIME I WAS PULLING UP TO A STOP LIGHT AND CAME TO COMPLETE STOP THEN I LET OFF THE BRAKES AND THEN PRESSED THEM AGAIN AND WHEN I DID THIS I HAD TO MASH IT ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR AND IT SOUNDED LIKE THE ABS WERE LOCKING UP OR MAKING A NOISE. I CAME SO CLOSE TO HITTING A PEDESTRIAN IN THE CROSS WALK. SO IN ALL SINCE THE "FIX" 2 MONTHS AGO I HAVE HAD THEM FAIL AND HIT SOMETHING IN MY GARAGE, AND 2 VERY CLOSE CALLS OF ALMOST HITTING ANOTHER CAR OR PERSON. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SINCE ABOUT 15K MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND CURRENTLY I HAVE 55K ON IT. THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN VERY RANDOMLY AS IN I COULD DO THE SAME THING AGAIN (PULL INTO GARAGE) AND IT WORKS FINE ONE TIME THEN THE NEXT NOT WORK AT ALL.

ON 09/27/19 WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE HOME FROM DINNER WITH MY CHILDREN MY BRAKES WENT OUT COMPLETELY CLOSE TO A MILE FROM OUR HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHILE THIS HAPPENED AND WE WERE ON A HIGHWAY. SIGNIFICANT FORCE HAD TO BE EXERTED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO FORCE THE TRUCK TO SLOWLY COME TO A STOP. HAD WE BEEN IN HEAVIER TRAFFIC THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THIS BRAKE VACUUM PUMP FAILURE WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN A CRASH INVOLVING OTHER VEHICLES. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP, RICHARD KAY SUPERSTORE IN ANDERSON SC, THEY STATED THEIR WAS A RECALL FOR A RE-CALIBRATION OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM THAT IF LEFT UNCHECKED COULD CAUSE A FAILURE OF THE VACUUM PUMP. AT THE TIME THE VEHICLE WAS THREE YEARS OLD AND THE RECALL WAS ISSUED 25 DAYS PRIOR TO MY INCIDENT. THE TOTAL COST TO REPAIR THE VACUUM PUMP WAS $705.96. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT CHEVROLET HAS NOT RECALLED THE VACUUM PUMP ASSEMBLY. IT IS CLEAR TO ME THAT THE CALIBRATION FAILURE IS CAUSING THESE PUMPS TO WEAR OUT TOO QUICKLY... OR THE PUMP THEMSELVES MAY ACTUALLY BE FAULTY AS WELL. REGARDLESS, THE CALIBRATION SHOULD BE REQUIRED AS WELL AS A REPLACEMENT OF THE VACUUM PUMP AT NO CHARGE TO THE CONSUMER. THIS WILL PREVENT INJURY AND POTENTIALLY THE LOSS OF LIFE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING REVERSED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE BRAKES BECAME INOPERABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT EXTRA EFFORT WAS NEEDED TO SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V578000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 81,000.

BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES VERY HARD TO PUSH AT LOW SPEED, ALMOST UNABLE TO STOP THE TRUCK MOST TIMES. HAPPENS ON A DAILY BASIS

Mileage: 88,000

BRAKES BECOME VERY DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS AFTER 2-3 DEPRESSIONS OF THE PEDAL. HAPPENS MOSTLY IN PARKING LOTS AND STOP/GO TRAFFIC. DRIVER MUST APPLY GREAT PRESSURE TO SLOW/STOP VEHICLE.

Mileage: 50,000

DRIVING AROUND PARKING LOTS OR STUCK IN TRAFFIC GOING SLOW AND HAVING TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL FREQUENTLY THE PEDAL WILL GO VERY HARD AND TAKES BOTH FEET TO PRESS DOWN ON IT AND BASICALLY HAVE NO BRAKES. I HAVE I TO PULL OVER OR STOP AND SHUT THE TRUCK OFF AND SIT FOR A MIN THEN RESTART AND I GET MY BRAKES BACK. I THINK IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE VACUUM ASSIST PUMP NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. I HAVE NOT TAKEN IN TO THE SHOP YET CAUSE I'M OUT OF THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY

Mileage: 48,900

REOCCURRING BRAKING PROBLEMS AT LOW SPEEDS WHENEVER PRESSURE IS APPLIED TO THE BRAKE IN QUICK SUCCESSION (IE BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC) THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES HARDER/STIFFER TO PRESS AND APPLIES LITTLE TO NO BRAKE WITHOUT EXCESSIVE FORCE. I HAVE ONLY NOTICED THIS BRAKING PROBLEM AT LOW SPEEDS BECAUSE OF THE CONDITIONS THAT CAUSE THE PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS DRIVING STRAIGHT AS WELL AS TURNING. THE VEHICLE ALSO MAKE A SOUND AS IF THE ABS SYSTEM IS ACTIVATING AND THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELS AS THOUGH THE ABS SYSTEM IS ACTIVATING. NO LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASHBOARD DURING THE BRAKING. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS ABOUT 50K MILES. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO BOUGHT FROM A CERTIFIED CHEVROLET DEALER

Mileage: 50,000

I WAS DRIVEING THE VEHICAL PULLING A BOAT ON A TRAILER COMING UP TO A STOP SIGN, I THEN WENT TO PRESS THE BRAKE AND THE PEDAL WAS HARD AND THE TRUCK WOULDNT STOP. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO PRESS THE BRAKE AND IF MY WIFE HAD BEEN DRIVING IM NOT SURE SHE WOULD HAVE HAD THE STREGTH TO PRESS THE BRAKE AND STOP THE TRUCK. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE. TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE VACUMM PUMP HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACE ALONG WITH THE VACUMM HOSES AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THE DEALER WANTED 1400.00 TO REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS ON A TWO YEAR OLD TRUCK. I REPLACED ALL THE COMPONENTS WITH FACTORY PARTS.

Mileage: 52,000

BRAKES BARELY WORK AT LOW SPEED AND REQUIRE A LOT OF PRESSURE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP. NEARLY BACKED MY TRUCK INTO A LAKE WHILE BACKING DOWN A BOAT LAUNCH. VERY DANGEROUS!

WHEN APPLIED BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO PUSH DOWN AND BRAKES DID NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET AT TIME OF INCIDENT. TOOK TO CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A BAD BRAKE BOOSTER AND THAT THEY HAVE HAD A LOT OF TROUBLE WITH THEM.

Mileage: 55,000

ON THE DATE CITED, I WAS BACKING UP A TRAILER DOWN A HILL SLOWLY. HAD RELEASED THE BRAKES THEN REAPPLIED AND SUDDENLY THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STIFF AND IT WAS VERY HARD TO STOP. MANUALLY APPLIED FULL STRENGTH TRAILER BRAKES AND THE TRAILER HELPED STOP THE TRUCK. 3 DAYS LATER (5/30/19) I EXPERIENCED A SIMILAR INCIDENT. I WAS PARKED, PUT THE TRUCK IN DRIVE ACCIDENTALLY AND TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE. WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE AGAIN QUICKLY TO SWITCH TO REVERSE, THE PEDAL WAS EXTREMELY STIFF. NEARLY HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. PUT INTO REVERSE AND NO ISSUE. AT NO POINT WAS A "SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST" MESSAGE DISPLAYED AS NOTED IN A 'SPECIAL WARRANTY' LETTER RECEIVED FROM GM IN THE MAIL BETWEEN THE INCIDENTS. NO OTHER ERROR CODES OR MESSAGES WERE DISPLAYED. 2 YEARS AGO AFTER HAVING TOWED A TRAILER, THE MESSAGE "SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST" WAS DISPLAYED ON THE SCREEN ONCE, THE LOCAL SERVICE DEALER PULLED CODES AND DID NOT PERFORM ANY REPAIR.

Mileage: 22,000

APRIL 2019 LETTER FROM GM SAYING MY BRAKES COULD POSSIBLY LOOSE THEIR VACUUM ASSIST. THEY DO NOT WANT TO FIX THE PROBLEM UNLESS I HAVE PROBLEMS AND EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 6 YEARS AND 72,000. WHAT A COP OUT, WHAT IF MY BRAKES DO NOT WORK PROPERLY IN A TIGHT STOPPING SITUATION? I HAVE ATTACHED A COPY OF THE LETTER, PLEASE DO NOT LET GM PLAY WITH OUR SAFETY ON A $52,000 VEHICLE OR ANY VEHICLE.

2016 SILVERADO CREW CAB, 3RD ONE I HAVE PURCHASED FROM THIS DEALERSHIP. IN DECEMBER OF 2018 , WITH 57094 MILES ON IT, THE TRUCK HAD A POWER BRAKE FAILURE WHILE BEING PARKED. TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE LOCAL DEALER WHO SAID IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. PASSED ON HAVING THE WORKED DONE THERE AND BROUGHT IT TO MY LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP. THE BILL CAME TO $384.33, WHICH I PAID WITH A CREDIT CARD. ON MAY 7TH, 2019, I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM GM THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP ON THE 2016 SILVERADO. THE LETTER INSTRUCTED THOSE WHO HAD A REPAIR MADE ALREADY TO SUBMIT THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IN ORDER TO RECEIVE PARTIAL/TOTAL REIMBURSEMENT: -NAME AND ADDRESS OF THE PERSON WHO PAID FOR THE REPAIR. -THE VIN NUMBER OF THE VEHICLE THAT WAS REPAIRED. -DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM, THE REPAIR PERFORMED AND WHO PERFORMED THE REPAIR. -THE TOTAL COST OF THE REPAIR EXPENSE THAT IS BEING REQUESTED. -PROOF OF PAYMENT FOR THE REPAIR IN QUESTION AND DATE OF PAYMENT. I WAS ABLE TO GATHER ALL THIS INFORMATION AND PRESENT IT TO THE DEALER FROM WHOM I HAD PURCHASE THE TRUCK. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE SIGNED CREDIT CARD RECEIPT THAT WAS ATTACHED TO THE BILL WAS NOT SUFFICIENT AS PROOF OF PAYMENT (WORKS WHEN I GO TO A RESTAURANT). THE DEALER STATED THAT GM REQUIRES A COPY OF MY CREDIT CARD BILL FOR THAT TIME PERIOD. THIS MEANS THEY WOULD ALSO HAVE MY CREDIT CARD NUMBER, A LIST OF EVERY PURCHASE I MADE IN THAT TIME PERIOD. WHAT PAYMENTS I HAD MADE AND ANY OUTSTANDING DEBT. I DECLINED TO GIVE THE DEALER THIS INFORMATION. CALLED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WORKED UP TO THE SUPERVISOR LEVEL AND GOT THE SAME RESPONSE. THE WANTED MY CREDIT CARD STATEMENT. I TOLD THE SUPERVISOR THAT I THOUGHT THE REQUEST WAS VERY INTRUSIVE AND AGAIN, DECLINED TO PROVIDE IT.

Mileage: 13,000

DURING PARKING OR IN TRAFFIC, THE BRAKES ON THIS VEHICLE HAVE A TENDENCY TO BECOME VERY STIFF AND NOISY REQUIRING INCREASED PRESSURE TO APPLY THE BRAKES. THE PROBLEM HAS CAUSED SEVERAL NEAR-MISS ACCIDENTS AND HAS BECOME MORE FREQUENT BETWEEN OCCURRENCES. THE PROBLEM WAS REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP IN NOVEMBER OF 2018, BUT BECAUSE MY APPOINTMENT WAS LATER IN THE DAY, THEY ASKED IF I COULD RETURN ANOTHER DAY TO HAVE THE PROBLEM DIAGNOSED. I HAD IT DIAGNOSED FINALLY ON MAY 4, 2019 WHICH THEY DID NOT ELUDE TO THIS BEING A FREQUENTLY REPORTED ISSUE, NOR THAT THE ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE THE PREVIOUS YEAR. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THE REPAIR WOULD COST OVER $700 WHICH I COULD NOT AFFORD AT THE TIME. BUT THEN 4 DAYS LATER I RECEIVE A LETTER (ATTACHED) IN THE MAIL, DATED APRIL 2019, THAT SAYS THAT THE BRAKE ISSUE WAS IDENTIFIED, BUT I WOULD ONLY QUALIFY FOR THE EXTENDED COVERAGE IF THE PROBLEM WAS REPORTED WITHIN 6 YEARS OF THE PURCHASE DATE OR 72,000 MILES, WHICHEVER WAS FIRST. AT THE TIME THE ISSUE WAS DIAGNOSED, THE MILAGE ON THE VEHICLE WAS 73,265, CONVENIENTLY JUST OUTSIDE THE RANGE OF THE MILAGE IDENTIFIED IN THE LETTER. IF GM WAS FAMILIAR WITH THIS ISSUE IN 2018, WHY SEND THIS LETTER OUT IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING MY DIAGNOSIS, WHERE I WAS ALLOWED ZERO OPPORTUNITIES TO HAVE THE PROBLEM REPAIRED? WERE ALL THE OTHER VEHICLE OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM GIVEN THE SAME MILAGE AND YEAR RESTRICTIONS AS ME? ALSO, HOW IS IT THAT A BRAKING PROBLEM WHICH HAS BEEN KNOW TO CAUSE ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES ALLOWED TO PERSIST UP UNTIL THERE IS A SEVERE PROBLEM, POTENTIALLY RESULTING IN A FATALITY BEFORE A RECALL IS JUSTIFIED? THERE ARE MORAL CONCERNS WITH THIS ON ADDITION TO THE GENERAL SAFETY CONCERNS.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD, BUT FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE ADEQUATELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SUMMIT CHEVROLET BUICK GMC (LOCATED AT 318 GRANT AVE, AUBURN, NY 13021, (315) 258-2000) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO RETRIEVE A FAULT CODE OR DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT EMPHASIZED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT EXTREMELY SLOW SPEEDS.

WHEN I PUT THE TRUCK IN DRIVE TO MOVE FORWARD THE TRUCK WOULD NOT STOP. I PRESSED VERY HARD ON THE BRAKES TO GET IT TO STOP. I THEN PLACE THE TRUCK IN PARK AND TRIED AGAIN TO MOVE BACKWARDS. THE BRAKES WOULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. I HAD TO PRESS AS HARD AS I COULD TO GET IT TO STOP. ALMOST HIT A BUILDING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 2 OTHER OCCASIONS IN A PARKING LOT AND PULLING OUT ONTO A MAIN ROAD FROM A DRIVEWAY. WHEN I TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART THEN THE BRAKES WILL ENGAGE AND WORK PROPERLY. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM.

Mileage: 43,000

WHEN TRAVELING AT LOW SPEEDS (ESTIMATE <10MPH, USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN PARKING), WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES STIFF, DOES NOT DEPRESS AS USUAL, DO NOT APPLY FORCE PROPERLY, AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUES MOVING.

ON MY 2016 SILVERADO 1500 WHEN I AM AT SLOW SPEEDS AND PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL IT DOES NOT STOP THE TRUCK. THE PEDAL BECOMES EXTREMELY STIFF AND THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE TRUCK IS THE EMERGENCY BRAKE OR USING BOTH FEET PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH ALL MY FORCE. I HAVE FOUND BY MY DEALER THAT IT IS A FAULTY VACUUM PUMP ALSO NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

POWER BRAKING FAILURE. BRAKE BOOSTER/VACUUM PUMP HAS FAILURE WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS (BACKING/PULLING INTO PARKING SPOTS, DRIVING IN STOP & GO TRAFFIC, ETC.). THE BRAKE PEDAL STIFFENS UP, AND AN IMMENSE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE IS NEEDED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RECREATE THIS ISSUE MANY TIMES IN THE PAST COUPLE DAYS, AS HAS THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP THAT I PURCHASED IT FROM. THIS IS SIMILAR TO WHEN A VEHICLE LOSES ALL ELECTRICAL POWER AND THE ABS IS NO LONGER ACTIVE. WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED (VERY HEAVILY), AND THE THE PEDAL STIFFENS UP, THE TRUCK STILL PROCEEDS TO MOVE FORWARD OR BACKWARDS ANOTHER FOOT OR SO PRIOR TO FULLY STOPPING. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE, AS I COMMONLY DRIVE IN STOP/GO TRAFFIC TO AND FROM WORK, AS WELL AS PARK IN A PARKING DECK BACKING UP TO EITHER OTHER VEHICLES, OR A CONCRETE WALL.

I HAD JUST GOTTEN HOME AFTER VISITING MY PARENTS WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY 100 MILES (1 HOUR AND 45 MINUTES) AWAY FROM MY HOUSE AND I HAD NO ISSUES ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY BRAKES. THE DRIVE WAS MOSTLY ALL HIGHWAY WITH AN AVERAGE SPEED LIMIT OF 65 AND 75 MPH. I WENT TO PARK MY TRUCK AT MY HOUSE IN WHICH I BACK INTO MY PARKING SPOT AT HOME. WHEN I WENT TO STOP, MY TRUCK'S BRAKES WORKED PROPERLY BUT WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE TO BACK INTO THE SPOT, THAT IS WHEN I WENT TO GO BREAK, THE BRAKES NEEDED MORE FORCE APPLIED TO THE PEDAL IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I THEN PUT MY TRUCK INTO DRIVE TO SEE IF THE PROBLEM WAS ONLY WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN REVERSE OR ALL THE TIME. I DROVE IT A FEW FEET FORWARDS AND BACK A FEW TIMES AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. GENERAL MOTORS HAS ISSUED A DOCUMENT (PIT5361D) REGARDING THIS ISSUE BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. A NEW VACUUM PUMP WAS INSTALLED BY THE DEALER WHICH RESOLVED THE ISSUE BUT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

Mileage: 47,000

ON TWO OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK PROPERLY CAUSING THE STOPPING DISTANCE TO DRAMATICALLY INCREASE. AS A RESULT I NARROWLY MISSED STRIKING OTHER VEHICLES ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE AVERAGE DRIVING SPEED WAS UNDER APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH. IN ORDER FOR THE BRAKES TO STOP THE VEHICLE THE BRAKE PEDAL NEEDS TO BE DEPRESSED WITH MAXIMUM PRESSURE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. A NOISE CAN ALSO BE HEARD WHICH I BELIEVED IS THE ABS. BRAKE FLUID LEVEL IS NOT LOW AND NO OBVIOUS BREAK LINE LEAKS WERE DETECTED. BRAKES APPAEAR TO FUNCTION PROPERLY AT NORMAL HIGHWAY AND DRIVING SPEEDS.

Mileage: 33,000

DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT SLOW SPEEDS WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO STOP, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO MOVE. BRAKE PEDAL BECAME HARD TO DEPRESS AND WITH MORE PRESSURE THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SLOW. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE BAKING UP OUT OF A PARKING STALL, THE BRAKE BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS, WITH THE VEHICLE STOPPING AFTER PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH FORCE.

Mileage: 74,000

BACKING INTO A PARKING SPOT TODAY AT LOW SPEED (LESS THAN 5 MPH) THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME STIFF AS A BOARD AND WOULD NOT BUDGE WHEN PRESSED AND THE TRUCK WOULD NOT STOP. MY TRUCK ROLLED BACK INTO A CLUSTER OF BUSHES AND FINALLY STOPPED. THIS IS A WIDESPREAD AND DANGEROUS ISSUE. A RECALL NEEDS TO TAKE PLACE ASAP! ALL OF MY INTERNET RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A FAULTY VACCUUM THAT CONTROLS THE BREAKS THAT FAILS AT LOW SPEEDS. THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS AND VERY CLOSE CALLS. GM NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS.

I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO A CERTIFIED GM SERVICE SHOP AND AFTER INSPECTION THEY INSTRUCTED ME THAT I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE BRAKE SYSTEM VACUUM PUMP, THE BRAKE BOOSTER, BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER AND THE TUBING CONNECTING THE ITEMS. RESULTING IN A $1170.00 REPAIR AND THE SERVICE REP ALSO STATED THAT THIS WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE ISSUE BUT CAUTIONED THE OIL AND FILTER CHANGES NEEDS TO BE MAINTAINED ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURERS STANDARDS. I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE ABOUT FIFTEEN DAYS AS OF THIS WRITING I DID BY IT FROM A DEALER WHOM SAID HE WAS UNAWARE OF THIS ISSUE. WHY IS THE NHTSA OR WHOM EVER CONTINUING TO LET THE DEALERS SELL THESES VEHICLES WITH A KNOWN SAFETY PROBLEM WITHOUT ADDRESSING THE PROPER REPAIRS STATED IN THE TSB PIT5361B THAT GM HAS SENT OUT TO THERE SERVICE CENTERS. SERIOUS ACCIDENTS COULD AND SHOULD BE PREVENTED WITH THIS ISSUE.

Mileage: 54,000

BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES HARD TO PRESS AT TIMES. PEDAL MUST BE PRESSED HARD TO THE FLOOR IN ORDER TO STOP. OCCURRED 02/14/19, ON A FEW OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT.

I HAVE PREVIOUSLY TAKEN MY TRUCK TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY SAW NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. I AM HOPING THEY WILL NOW THAT THE WARNING CAME ON. I HAVE COME VERY CLOSE TO HITTING OTHER CARS BECAUSE OF THIS AND HOPE IT CAN BE FIXED. THIS HAPPENED EVERY TIME AS I WAS PARKING MY TRUCK AT VERY SLOW SPEEDS (THANKFULLY).

Mileage: 48,000

AT LOW SPEEDS THE BTAKING SYSTEM IS EXTREMELY HARD TO ENGAGE AND CREATES A NEED FOR AN UMEXPECTED LONGER STOP DISTANCE/TIME. THIS IS AN EXTREME HAZARD AND CAN EASILY CAUSE AN IN INCIDENT AND POSSIBLE INJIURY/FATALITY. IT GIVES A 'BRAKE ASSIST ERROR'WHEN THIS OCCURS.

EXAMPLE IN TRAFFIC OR REVERSING OUT THE DRIVEWAY.THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN AT 20 MPH OR LESS. I DID HAVE AN ISSUE THE OTHER DAY WHEN I HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES, PRESSING THE BRAKE ALL THE WAY WHICH HARD TO DO AND MADE ALL KINDS OF NOISES. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE 2017.

THE BRAKES BECAME REALLY HARD TO PRESS AND I ALMOST CRASHED INTO MY GARAGE. THIS SEEMS TO ONLY HAPPEN AT SLOW SPEEDS BUT IS GETTING WORSE. THE "SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST" LIGHT CAME ON. IT IS BELIEVED TO BE A FAILURE IN THE VACUUM PUMP.

Mileage: 52,000

WHILE DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS SUCH AS PARKING OR BACKING UP, I FREQUENTLY EXPERIENCE A VERY FIRM OR HARD BRAKE PEDAL. THIS RESULTS IN VERY LITTLE BRAKING ABILITY. THE PROBLEM IS BEGINNING TO BECOME NOTICEABLE WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THE PROBLEM MAY BE GETTING WORSE. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO A MAINTENANCE SHOP WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS NEEDING A VACUUM PUMP FOR THE BRAKE SYSTEM. THE PARTS NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR ARE ON BACKORDER AND IT IS NOT KNOWN HOW LONG THIS MAY TAKE. DUE TO THE PROBLEM BECOMING MORE FREQUENT I AM CURRENTLY NOT DRIVING MY VEHICLE UNTIL REPAIRS CAN BE MADE.

WHEN DRIVING 2016 SILVERADO 1500, I PUT ON BRAKE AND LOST POWER TO STEERING. DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL. OTHER TIME WHEN TOUCHING THE BRAKE, LIGHTS GOT BRIGHTER ON TOUCH PAD FOR RADIO AND FOR OVER 200 MILES WHILE SOMEONE WAS IN PASSENGER SEAT, IT SAID PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS OFF. WHILE TURNING AND APPLYING BRAKE, LOOSE ALL STEERING. IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING. NOT SITTING STILL. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, 8 2AS TURNING IN THE DRIVEWAY AND LOST ALL POWER AND HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES 2 TIMES TO AVOID GOING INTO THE DITCH

Mileage: 35,000

WHILE IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, THE VEHICLE'S BRAKES WILL NOT ENGAGE WHEN THEY NEED TO IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO STOP CORRECTLY. THIS HAPPENS MOST TIMES WHEN VEHICLE HAS JUST LET OFF THE BRAKE TO THEN ONCE AGAIN BRAKE QUICKLY, AND THE DRIVER WILL NEED TO PUSH THE BRAKE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR IN ORDER TO ENGAGE PROPER BRAKING. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, BUT WHEN IT DOES, IT IS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, OR WHILE THE DRIVER IS IN A DRIVE THRU, FOR EXAMPLE AT THE BANK. THE TYPE OF ROAD CONDITIONS HAVE NO AFFECT TO THIS, IT HAS HAPPENED ON SUNNY DAYS WHERE THE PAVEMENT IS DRY AND RAINY DAYS. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN THE VEHICLE IS COMING TO A STOP WHILE IN A DOWN HILL POSITION WITH ON COMING TRAFFIC.

LEAVING A CHIEFS GAME IN KANSAS CITY I WAS WAITING IN TRAFFIC. WE SLOWLY MOVED FORWARD AND MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND WOULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE I RAN INTO THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME . THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO HIS BUMPER BUT I GOT A DENT THE SIZE OF A BASEBALL. LATER ON THE WAY HOME I RELISED THAT IT WAS STILL DOING IN AT LOW RPMS SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AMD THEY SAID MY VACUME PUMP WAS GOING OUT!! AT 45000 MILES???? THE MECHANIC SAID IT WAS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM.

RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2016 CHEVY SILVERADO IN MAY 2018, AND HAD 17,000 MILES ON IT, IN JULY 2018 NOTICED THE BRAKES WERE HARD TO MASH AND PULSATING WHILE DRIVING; IT'S NOT DOING IT ALL THE TIME, OFF AND ON. NEED TO KNOW IF THIS A RECALL ISSUE AND WHAT TO DO?

Mileage: 19,000

THE BRAKES BUILD UP PRESSURE WHEN PUSHED MULTIPLE TIMES CAUSING THE BRAKES TO NOT ENGAGE AND PROPERLY STOP THE VEHICLE. THEY GET SO TIGHT YOU HAVE TO PUT ALL WEIGHT AND FORCE POSSIBLE IN THEM TO STOP. I'VE CALLED MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS AND EVEN CALLED GM DIRECTLY AND AFTER INVESTIGATION THEY SAY THEY COULD NOT SIMULATE THE ISSUE AND ITS NOT A KNOWN ISSUE. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS REPORTS ON THIS AND IT WAS VERY EASY TO FIND AS A KNOWN ISSUE AMONGST GM OWNERS.

BRAKE PEDAL GETS EXTREMELY HARD AND FEELS LIKE MAYBE ABS TRIES TO ACTIVATE AT TIMES. USUALLY AFTER PUSHING BRAKE PEDAL A COUPLE TIMES IN TRAFFIC OR PARKING LOTS. I'VE ALMOST DRIVEN INTO OTHER VEHICLES AND A BUILDING WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT NOW SEVERAL TIMES. TODAY WHILE COASTING DOWNHILL TOWARD A STOP LIGHT I ALMOST COULDN'T STOP AT THE LIGHT! THE TRUCK, A 2016 SILVERADO ONLY HAS 57K MILES ON IT. HOPEFULLY THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY WILL COVER WHATEVER IS GOING ON. I'M CALLING THE DEALERSHIP FIRST THING IN THE MORNING

VEHICLE LOSES MOST TO ALL OF THE PRESSURE IN THE BRAKE PEDAL AT SLOWER SPEEDS OR IF COASTING (FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR) FOR SHORT PERIODS. BRAKING BECOMES EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND STOPPING DISTANCE DRASTICALLY INCREASES. SERVICE BRAKES MESSAGE COMES ON WHILE IN TRAFFIC AS WELL, BUT ONLY AS A SERVICE NOTICE, NOT A WARNING. THIS AS BEEN ON GOING SINCE JANUARY 2017, BUT HAS GOTTEN DRAMATICALLY WORSE OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING THROUGH CITY'S IN TRAFFIC AND PARKING LOTS AT SLOW SPEED. NO ACCIDENT TO REPORT, BUT TOO MANY NEAR MISSES TO COUNT. YESTERDAY WAS THE LATEST EVENT. ON THE INTERSTATE, IN TRAFFIC TRAVELING 0-15 MPH, IT TOOK A SOLID 5 FEET OR MORE TO STOP THE VEHICLE FROM 10 MPH TO ZERO WHILE PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH BOTH FEET. I WAS NOT TOWING ANYTHING AND THE VEHICLE WAS ONLY LOADED WITH 5 PASSENGERS AND A SMALL AMOUNT OF LUGGAGE. ROADS WERE DRY AND THE TEMPERATURE WAS ROUGHLY 60 DEGREES F. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU NEED MORE INFORMATION OR OTHER EVENTS.

THE BRAKE GETS HARD WHEN YOU PUSH IT DOWN, AND IT WONT STOP. WE WERE AT A POND LOOKING AT THE WILDLIFE JUST BARELY MOVING WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO STOP FOR A MOMENT, HOWEVER THE TRUCK WOULD NOT STOP. THE BRAKE FELT LIKE IT WAS ALL THE WAY DOWN AND WAS VERY HARD BUT YET, THE TRUCK KEPT ROLLING. I WAS IN A VERY BUSY CITY AND WAS SCARED THAT IT MIGHT NOT STOP IN TRAFFIC. I TRIED PUMPING THE BRAKES AND THAT MADE IT WORSE. I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID AND IT WAS WELL WITHIN THE NORMAL LEVEL. THE TRUCK SEEMED TO DO OK ON THE HIGHWAY AS WE WERE COMING HOME, AS LONG AS YOU DIDNT PUSH IT DOWN TWICE...IE, YOU HAD TO PUSH ONCE AND HOLD IT CAUSE IT WOULD GET HARD IF YOU LIFTED YOUR FOOT AND BRAKED SGAIN. THE PROBLEM WAS MOSTLY IN TOWN WHERE THERE WERE NUMEROUS TIMES YOU HAVE TO STOP FOR TRAFFIC, RED LIGHTS, TURNING, ETC... THE VEHICLE JUST WOULDN'T STOP. I HAD SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS BEFORE I COULD GET IT HOME. THE CHEVROLET DEALER SAID IT WAS THE BRAKE VACUUM BOOSTER? (MIGHT NOT HAVE SAID THAT AS HE DID) AND IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BEFORE I GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. THIS SEEMS LIKE FAULTY MANUFACTURING OR JUST A BAD PRODUCT THAT GM SHOULD HAVE RECALLED SO CONSUMERS COULD GET IT FIXED BEFORE ANY ACCIDENTS OCCURRED. I'M THANKFUL WE WEREN'T INJURED OR ANYONE ELSE, BUT THIS MAY NOT BE THE CASE FOR SOMEONE ELSE. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY BY GM AND THEY NEED TO MAKE IT RIGHT. I WILL BE GOING TO THE DEALER TO GET MY VEHICLE REPAIRED, BUT IT'S UNFAIR THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT GM SHOULD HAVE MADE RIGHT ALREADY.

THIS IS RIDICULOUS, I'M IN THE MILITARY I HAVE A NEWBORN CHILD I DO NOT NEED TO BE HURT AT HOME WHILE DRIVING AROUND. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL TO GE THIS FIXED.

WHEN I WAS PARKING MY TRUCK THE BRAKE WAS HARD TO PUSH. PULLING FORWARD HITTING THE BRAKE TOOK ALLOT OF EFFORT. BACKING INTO TO PARKING SPOT AND HITTING BRAKE TOOK ALLOT OF EFFORT.

FROM THE DAY OF PURCHASE THE BRAKES NEVER SEEMED TO BE ADEQUATE. YOU WOULD HAVE TO PUSH HARDER ON THE BRAKES THAN NORMAL TO MAKE THE TRUCK STOP. DURING ROUTINE SERVICE THE DEALERSHIP REPORTED THE BRAKES, DRIVERS SIDE REAR WERE ALMOST METAL TO METAL AND THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WAS SLIGHTLY BETTER. THE FRONT BRAKES WERE 2/3 WORN AND ALL OF THE PADS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THIS TRUCK IS LEASED AND HAS ONLY 32000 MILES ON IT THEREFORE SHOULDN'T NEED TO BE REPLACING BRAKES AT SUCH A LOW MILEAGE. PER THE DEALERSHIP IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS AS BRAKES FALL UNDER THE NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR OF A VEHICLE. AGAIN, WE FEEL THAT WITH ONLY 32000 MILES BRAKES SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BE REPLACED AND SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF GM TO RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS THE 4TH NEW GM TRUCK THAT I'VE OWNED OR LEASED AND HAVE NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES BEFORE WITH BRAKES.

MY BRAKES DO NOT PROPERLY FUNCTION IN WET WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE BRAKE PETAL BECOMES EXTREMELY STIFF, AS IF THERE IS AIR IN THE BRAKE LINES. THIS ALSO RESULTS IN A SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF STOPPING POWER. WHILE JAMMING THE BRAKE PEDAL AS HARD AS I CAN, THE PADS NEVER MAKE SIGNIFICANT CONTACT WITH THE ROTOR. I HAVE ALREADY DAMAGED MY BUMPER BECAUSE OF THIS. I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARK DURING HEAVY RAINS. WHILE PRESSING MY BREAK PETAL, I NOTICED THE IMMEDIATE LOSS OF STOPPING POWER. I COULD NOT STOP IN TIME, COLLIDING WITH THE PARKING BARRIER POLE. THE LOSS OF STOPPING POWER HAPPENS ROUTINELY DURING RAIN.

ON THREE OCCASIONS MY 2016 CHEVY SILVERADO LTZ Z71 BRAKES FAILED TO WORK. THE FIRST TIME I ROLLED HALF WAY INTO A INTERSECTION BEFORE I CAME TO A STOP. THE SECOND TIME WAS AT AN SINGNAL CONTROLLED INTERSECTION. AFTER BOTH OF THESE INCIDENTS THE BRAKES STARTED WORKING PERFECT AND I WAS NOT SURE IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM OR NOT. THE OTHER DAY THIS HAPPENED AGSIN BUT THIS TIME I WAS IN A PARKING LOT. I WAS ABLE TO TEST THE BRAKES AND AS I WENT BACK AND FORTH I HAD TROUBLE COMING TO A STOP AS I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AS HARD AS I COULD. I BROUGHT THE TRUCK TO CHEVY SERVICE AND WAS TOLD THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT WAS FAILING. THEY STATED I WAS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY AND I'M RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST. I DON'T FEEL LIKE I SHOULD I DO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A PART THAT THEY SAID IS NOT SUPPOSED TO FAIL. THIS IS ALSO CONCERNING IF THERE ARE OTHER CHEVY TRUCK OUT ON THE ROAD THAT RANDOMLY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO STOP.

THE FIRST SET OF BRAKE PADS WERE GM REPLACEMENT, THEY DID NOT STOP THE TRUCK AS WELL AS THE ORIGINAL. SO I REPLACED THE PADS WITH RAYBESTOS BRAKE PADS, STILL NOT SATISFIED WITH THE STOPPING DISTANCE. AGAIN I WENT WITH NAPA CERAMIC PADS THEY CAUSED THE BREAKS TO SQUEAL WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. NOW MY MECHANIC HAS REPLACED THEM WITH O RELLY NAME PADS AND THE STOPPING DISTANCE IS STILL INCREASING. THE OTHER PROBLEM WAS AROUND 58,000 MILES MY TRUCK BEGAN SHIFTING HARD AND JERKING. WHEN I TOOK IT TO DEACON JONES CHEVROLET IN SMITHFIELD NC, THEY REPLACED THE TORQUE CONVERTER AT NO CHARGE. NOW AT 63,000 MILES ITS DOING THE SAME THING. GM STATES EVEN IF THEY REPLACED THE PART THE WARRANTY ONLY COVERS TO 60,000. MILES. WHEN ASKED ABOUT THE PART WARRANTY SAME RESPONSE 60,000 MILES. CHECKING WITH SEVERAL MECHANICS IN THE AREA AND ON LINE BOTH INCIDENCES SEEMS TO BE A REOCCURRING PROBLEM FOR PEOPLE WHO OWN TRUCKS OF THIS PERIOD. PLEASE CHECK INTO THIS.

THE BRAKES BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO PRESS WHILE TRYING TO STOP FROM A SLOW SPEED. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE EITHER IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC OR GOING THROUGH A DRIVE THROUGH.

DEC 1ST 2018, I'M IN A PARKING LOT PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE HEAD FIRST, WHEN I NEEDED TO STRAIGHTEN MY TRUCK OUT, I PUT IT IN REVERSE TO PULLOUT AND STRAIGHTEN IT OUT, WHEN I HIT MY BRAKE PEDAL SUDDENLY THE PEDAL HAS A LOT OF PRESSURE AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO COME TO A STOP. THEN PULL FORWARD AGAIN TO PARK AND YET THE PEDAL BECOMES ROCK HARD MAKING EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TO STOP THE TRUCK MOVING FORWARD, A COUPLE FEET. THEN FINALLY STOPPING BEFORE HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I NOW CALL THE DEALERSHIP TO TAKE IT IN AND SEE WHAT'S GOING ON BECAUSE NOW THIS PUTS MYSELF, MY FAMILY, AND EVERYONE AROUND ME IN DANGER IF I'M NOT ABLE TO STOP MY TRUCK.

I BELIEVE CHEVROLET 1500 SERIES TRUCKS ARE NOT MANUFACTURED WITH BRAKES THAT STOP THE VEHICLE SOON ENOUGH. I HAVE A PROBLEM WHEN I HAVE DRIVEN MY TRUCK FOR A WHILE, LONG ENOUGH THAT THE BRAKE SYSTEM GETS PRETTY WARM, OR DOWN HILLS,,( NOT STEEP HILLS). THE BRAKES DO NOT NOT BRAKE VERY WELL, ALONG WITH MAKING A GRINDING - RUMBLING NOISE FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. IT ALSO FEELS LIKE LIKE THE BRAKES ARE METAL ON METAL. I HAVE ASKED THE DEALERSHIP TO CHECK INTO IT, AND THE SAY, NOTHING WRONG, BRAKES HAVE LOTS OF BRAKE PAD LEFT. WHEN I ASK THEM IF THEY HAVE HEARD OF ANY ISSUES REGARDING BRAKE FADE, AND NOISE, THEY SAY NO. LAST YEAR GM CAME UP WITH A FRONT BRAKE UPGRADE KIT IN THEIR PARTS DEPARTMENT, WHICH IS A 6 PISTON CALLIPER AND UPGRADED PADS FOR THE TRUCK, BUT IT COSTS $4000. ON THE 2019, THEY HAVE ADDED THIS UPGRADE KIT AS AN OPTION WHEN YOU BUILD AND PRICE A NEW TRUCK. THAT TELLS ME THAT THAT THEY KNOW THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THEIR TRUCKS, BUT THEY WON'T ADMIT IT.

A VEHICLE SHOP IN SAN ANTONIO WAS ABLE TO CONSISTENTLY REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IT WAS A BAD VACUUM-PUMP-ASSIST. IT COST ME $455.00, IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE, THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT OIL FROM THE ENGINE COULD HAVE DAMAGED THE VACUUM BOOSTER AND/OR THE MASTER CYLINDER.

ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS, MY BRAKES FAILED ME CAUSING ME TO ALMOST CRASH. THE FIRST TIME, I WAS STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN FROM GOING LESS THAN 5MPH (I WAS INCHING UP AFTER ABOUT 10 CARS WERE IN FRONT OF ME). I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE THE WHOLE TIME AND NEVER ACCELERATES AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE TRUCK WOULDN'T STOP. I WAS ON ABOUT A VERY SLIGHT DOWNHILL (MAYBE 1 DEGREE). IT FELT LIKE THE BRAKES BECAME SLIPPERY AND JUST SOUNDED AWFUL. I CAME WITHIN A FEW INCHES OF THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND ALMOST REAR ENDED THEM. THE NEXT OCCASION, I WAS GOING DOWNHILL AND TO THE LEFT AND HAS TO STOP. THE TRUCK DID THE SAME THING WHERE THE POWER BRAKES SEEMED TO FAIL OR THE BRAKES JUST DIDN'T WANT TO WORK. THIS TIME I WAS GOING ABOUT 35MPH AND HAD TO SWERVE INTO THE WRONG LANE TO AVOID CRASHING. THANKFULLY NOBODY WAS COMING OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE HAD TO REAR END THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS PROBABLY 5 OR 6 CAR LENGTHS BEHIND HIM WHEN WE BOTH HIT THE BRAKES AT THE SAME TIME. THE 3RD TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS THIS MORNING IN THE SAME SPOT AS THE SECOND INCIDENT. THIS TIME, I WAS TESTING THE BRAKES. I'M VERY SCARED THAT SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THIS AND WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS FIXED ASAP. I BOUGHT THIS GM CERTIFIED VEHICLE ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO AND SHOULD BE IN GOOD MECHANICAL CONDITION. THESE 3 INCIDENTS HAPPENED IN A 10-14 DAY SPAN AND 2 TIMES IN THE PAST 3 DAYS.

I WENT DIRECTLY TO A NEARBY MECHANIC TO SEE WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY TRUCK. THEY TOLD ME THE VACUUM PUMP IS FAULTY AND THAT GM HAS A BULLETIN ABOUT THIS ISSUE.

MY TRUCK CAME WITH AN OPTIONAL $770.00 TRAILERING PACKAGE INCLUDING AUTO LOCKING 3.42 RATIO REAR END, 5.3 LITRE V-8. THE SALES PITCH IS I CAN NOW TOW 9800 POUNDS. THEY DON'T TELL YOU THAT THERE ARE NO TRAILER BRAKES! SO HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO STOP WHEN I'M TOWING 9800 LBS? I CONTACTED GM AND THEY GAVE ME A CLAIM # 8-2253662923 AND TOLD ME THAT I WOULD HEAR FROM THEM WITHIN 48 HOURS, 4 DAYS LATER I CALLED AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THAT A SUPERVISOR NEEDED TO TALK TO ME, SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE WOULD CONTACT THE DEALER ND SOMEONE WILL GET BACK TO ME, THAT WAS 2 WEEKS AGO. I THINK THAT THIS IS AN EXTREMELY UNSAFE CONDITION, THIS WILL KILL PEOPLE! ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
