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

Pedal went to floor and would not stop when parking and also in bumper to bumper traffic

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.

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.

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.

A lot of force needed to break at lower speed

- Yulee, FL, USA

Increased brake pedal effort caused by faulty brake vacuum pump. Stiff brake pedal at low speeds and increased stopping distance

- Nevada, IA, USA

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.

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

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

- Greensburg, PA, USA

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.

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!

Brakes start failing ( brake pedal hard) when parking after driving

- Cape Coral, FL, USA

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

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.
