Brakes are hard to push and stutter at low speeds. I need to push hard on pedal to initiate the brake system.

I purchased a certified pre-owned 2017 Chevy Silverado on February 1st of this year, and over the last 4 months have put only 5,000 miles on it. On June 20th, on my way back from a 10-hour trip, where I was towing a trailer with a car on it, my trailer brakes suddenly stopped functioning (about 4 hours from home). Not only did the trailer brakes stop functioning, but a warning message popped up on the dashboard "service trailer brake system". But this warning message didn't pop up just one time, it kept coming again and again and again and again and again, relentlessly chiming and distracting me from driving, it covered my speedometer readout, it prevented me from receiving or making voice commands, prevented me from hearing phone calls, and prevented me from listening to music. The service warning chime also prevented the turn signal chime from functioning. So for a full 4 hours, I was constantly reminded with a service trailer brake system chime, was unable to hear my turn signal chime, was unable to listen to music or make a phone call, and was unable to see the digital readout of my speed. The vehicle had been rendered completely undrivable, and I absolutely will not hesitate to say that the vehicle was not safe to drive in that condition. Especially if you consider that I was towing 5,000 lbs with no working trailer brakes. GM's defective wire harness endangered my life. Consumer stated wire harness has not been replaced and manufacture refused to honor CPO warranty.

Brakes are delayed and have a slipping feeling at times. Lights flash and wheel locks up, unknown problem, when vehicle is shut down and restarted problem resolves. Vehicle will not start due to electrical problem. researched and found safety recalls precisely for the problems I am having on other models, my truck needs to be included in those recalls.

...Decreased service brake: intermittent vehicle vibration throughout vehicle and decreased brake performance with brake pedal application. Vehicle has approximately 21,400 miles, purchased new, operates in the rochester ny rust belt area. Inquired at dealer of problem, was informed GM does not cover brake "maintenance" items. Upon inspection, considerable deterioration, due to rust, was noted on said vehicles 4 brake rotors along with loss of inner brake pad surface area of rotors. Upon completion of 4 wheel brake pad, rotor and hardware replacement, at the cost to myself, to date, brake performance is back to "as new" with no noticeable vibration at this time....vjd....(pics available, upon request, of rotors)

On 10/26/2019, the 2017 Chevrolet Silverado was being driven in heavy traffic on the 134/210 Freeway area of Glendale, California. The truck was going 10 mph, and when the driver went to stop, the brake petal pressed to the floor, resulting in a rear end collision with the car in front of it. The driver of the first car appeared uninjured, but filed a claim later that he had ongoing lower back issues. The brake light only went on after the incident. The truck was driven to a local Chevrolet dealer and the brakes were serviced a few days later. The vacuum pump was the reason why the truck did not stop. It is notated on paperwork and confirmed when speaking to the Service Manager on Friday, November 1st at 4:30 pm. The service manager also reported there was now a recall to fix the problem, so it would be fixed and a new vacuum pump would be put in (Vacuum Pump Replacement Special Coverage N182198000). A claim was filed with GMC to pay for the damage and take over the insurance claim made by the owner of the truck, as well as the car in front of it. GMC came out to the Chevrolet dealer during that time, and GMC reported to the owner that they would not help with fixing the vehicle or the insurance claims. The owner requested the final report three times and there was no response. The truck had been reported to multiple service providers that there were issues with the stopping of the brakes in 2019. It was requested by the owner that the brakes were inspected so that they could be replaced if needed. There was also an incident in July 2019 where front and rear brakes were interchanged on the paperwork and the owner of the truck was told that it was just a paperwork mix up because they "fixed the brakes that were bad."

Brakes give out at slow speeds such as parking Lots are traffic. The truck started giving me problems one day in a parking lot the breaks went straight to the floor and the truck shook and it was weird and the truck barley stopped and I put it in park. I started to drive again and at fast speeds the brakes seemed fine.. but then it-??s happened multiple times for me now in traffic and in parking lots and it-??s not safe at all I-??ve bought new rotors all new brakes pads and even changed the brake booster and main cylinder all through Midas and it still has done it to me again.

When reversing slowly the brake pedal becomes had to push to stop usually after pushing it more than one time.

- Pleasant Garden, NC, USA

It is very hard to stop the truck at low speeds (1-5mph). The brake pedal is very hard to push and does not stop the vehicle without considerable pressure being applied. It has happened twice within the past week while attempting to park. Thankfully, we were in a parking lot, but it could cause a significant issue while approaching a stoplight or other traffic situation. After reading, it appears that GM has known about the issue for some time, but I don't see a recall associated with the vehicle. I have owned it since new.

Poor braking at low speed. I have electronic brake control module codes.

- Elkhorn, WI, USA

While parking, at low speeds, my brake pedal turned stiff and I had to use both feet to push it. This only happens while I'm at a low speed and can be made to happen every time. This has been happening off and on for a good while. I took the truck to my local dealer for a recall, which I don't personally think they did. I thought the recall was to fix this low speed issue that is known on this particular model of the 2017 Silverado's. it's a safety issue in my opinion because this happens at any situation of low speeds. I tow a boat and it does it while I'm backing my boat into the water. Am I not supposed to use my boat because of this issue" is it my fault that GM decided to use subpar parts to save money" this issue needs to be a safety recall and paid for by the manufacturer. They are recommending you change about 5 different parts in order to correct this issue. Ridiculous.

When driving low speeds stabilitrac appears on screen and truck wants to turn off, display screen and gauges flicker.

I was driving in traffic going 5mph or less. Brakes kept slipping and had to push down on the brakes to make my truck stop almost causing me to hit the vehicle in front of me multiple times. Brake assist kept popping up on the dash. Problem only occurs at low speeds.

- Berwick, LA, USA

While in the drive through, my brakes faded and my truck would barley stop. The pedal felt different. I almost rear ended the car in front of me. My service "brake assist" warning came on. From what I read, it appears to very similar to what other trucks my year are experiencing but mine wasn't covered by any recalls??

At slow speeds, typically in parking lots or restaurant drive thru traveling at less than 5 mph the breaking system fails and I have no brakes. This has offered 3 times. My truck has 38000 miles.

- Lake Havasu City, AZ, USA

While going through a drive through restaurant, after I ordered my food and let my foot off my brake to advance forward and stop at the window to pay about 20-30 feet ahead, I could not brake in time to stop at the window. My brake pedal was very hard to push and even though I was pushing very hard it barely stopped, even though I was going less than one mph. This was very scary as none of my warning lights were noting errors and it happened out of the blue. I only live two miles away so I drove home very slow and I didn't notice the same issue on the drive home. However, when I pulled my truck into the garage, it started to happen again and I could hear the breaks doing something weird. I'm taking it to the shop today to get fixed tomorrow when the shop opens. I did receive two warning messages via text when I got home. Diagnostic alert: Service the stabilitrak stability control system in your 2017 Silverado within 7 days. Txt stop to cancel. Diagnostic alert: Service the antilock braking system in your 2017 Silverado within 7 days. Txt stop to cancel. My main concern is the articles I read about this issue make it sound like warning lights go off to let you know something is wrong and the articles say it's ok to drive because the safety features disengage, however, my features did not disengage without warning and I'm glad a car or person was not in front of me at the time it happened or I would have hit them. This is very concerning and needs addressed before someone dies.

When pressing the brakes at low speeds such as in a drive thru or parking lot, there is a pressure loss in the brakes. This requires significantly increased braking pressure to stop. Failures are associated with a ticking sound coming from the engine compartment or vibration in the pedals.

- Dallas, TX, USA

Pressing the brakes at low speeds (drive thru, parking spaces) seems to cause a pressure loss in the brakes. This causes increased braking pressure to stop. You can hear a tick coming from what I assume is the ABS controller. This happens in forwards and reverse.
