I was driving down the highway last Friday. I went to slow down to get into another lane and My Tahoe started saying “break failure” and I had no breaks to stop my Tahoe. I pressed the break as far down as I could and had no way to stop. I took my foot off the gas and I drove 10 mph to the dealership 1 mile from my location and coasted to a stop. The dealership called today and said they were needing to replace the entire break module and system. I am so scared to drive my car now. I had my children in the car and I thought we were literally going to wreck.

Unknown but there was many lights on at the time of brake failure. I was driving home from Florida to NJ with my four young children in the vehicle on a 65mph highway when all these lights came on, the brakes completely stopped working and it told me it was reducing speed to 62mph for safety because the brakes were failed. It also stated service svc. By the grace of god I was able to off-road it a bit to get it to slow down to a stop. The second time it happened was in my driveway parked. Inbetween the two incidents I brought my vehicle for regular service and asked them to look at the brakes again for me as this is a major safety concern as well as my transmission slipping and they complete refused and only changed my oil.

On one morning w/20 something temperature, Tahoe started and immediately shut down. When restarted, multiple malfunction lights were lit: engine, ABS/brake, steering column, traction control, etc. Reached Onstar for advice to see if Tahoe was drive-able, but only got confirmation of system malfunctions and offered roadside assistance but declined since at home and would call back if needed. About an hour later and several restarts, all malfunction lights finally cleared except engine light, which stayed on for another day or so. Tahoe drove okay during engine light on.

Brakes system failure message on highway and couldn’t use brakes without standing on them. Once came to a stop in breakdown lane tow driver took us to closest Chevrolet dealer where we were told our vehicle was unsafe to drive and was basically a toboggan. If we weren’t in slow moving traffic we would’ve been in a serious accident. Dealer confirmed by running computer on car that the brake system motor stopped working and lost communication with power steering, transmission, central gateway, brake system control, and engine control. Waiting to see if this is a software issue or if brake motor needs to be replaced. Either way feels very unsafe to drive.
