Total brake failure due to mechanical breakdown on my 2001 Cadillac dhs. The failure happened between the connection for the brake pedal and the brake actuator. Result: Zero braking. Please help me get this fixed. I have the bill for this repair. The failure was caused by an apparent failure of a "C" clip. I notified ntsb months ago and have yet to have a follow up, thank you for your kind attention to this matter.

While driving consumer puts foot on the brakes, and then puts foot back on the gas, and the vehicle dies. There is no indication that there any problems before hand. Then the service engine light comes on, and stays on for 2 or 3 days. The consumer has not taken the vehicle in to the dealership for service yet, waiting on GM to recommend.
