My 2017 Silverado is experiencing a very hard brake pedal at slow speeds. I took it into the dealership in October 2019 for the recall pertaining to this issue where they reprogram the braking unit. I had taken it in for that recall just as a preventative measure but now 4 months later I have a very hard brake pedal at slow speeds. I had not had a braking issue until now. When it acts up the pedal is so hard it makes it difficult to stop the truck. It seems to have a hard brake pedal when I'm going slow as in bumper to bumper traffic or parking the vehicle in a parking lot while applying the brakes off and on while doing so.

Had recall performed to address hard breaking at slow speeds. Now the truck is harder to stop at slow speeds and GM will not fix the problem. They know it's the vacuum pump and booster and expect me to pay for it.

This complaint deals with the brake recall coming from GM. I did take the truck to have the brake system reprogrammed. I had no issues until after the reprogramming of the system. While in parking lot going less than 5 mph. I pulled into a parking spot placed the truck into reverse to straighten out and during the process of pulling back into the parking space straight. When I went to depress the pedal it was very stiff, it actually seemed as if the brake pedal was pushing back at my foot and the truck did not stop when it was expected to. Luckily, there was no car in the space in front of me allowing for the truck to come to a stop with no accidents or incidents. This at occurred approximately 73,500 miles. I did notify the dealership about this and they are replacing the vacuum brake pump free of charge. However, if circumstances were different this issue may have resulted in an accident.

I picked my truck up from the local dealer after having recall N192268490 repaired. The hard pedal issue is now worse than before. The first time you push the brake pedal it feels ok but the second time it has little to no power assist and don't try for a third. By the third try the pedal is rock solid and you end up backing into your tractor under the shelter. So it's back to the dealer in the morning

Safety recall calibration to vapor brake system done. After recall completed brakes when pumped more than 1 time the brake pedal recedes to lowest level before stopping and other instances brake pedal only compresses down slightly with increased effort to stop. A load squeaking noise is associated with brake pedal going down far to floorboard. Before recalibration of vapor system per recall notice this was not as frequent a problem. Chevrolet dealership is not acknowledging or reproducing this absent problem. They refuse to assist further as per cevrolet customer support they will not repair unless they drive and find problem. They diagnosed it as no problem the vehicle is in motion coming to a hopeful stop when problem occurs

I was at a red light holding the brake pedal, suddenly it became really hard to press and the braking was limited. Tried pumping the brake pedal a few times but problem persisted. Light turned green finally and cautiously I gave it a little gas and stepped on brake pedal to see if I was going to have to resort to a plan B. seemed to work once I got moving but definitely not normal

When braking and vehicle is slowing to a stop engine speeds up just before stopping and vehicle surges forward necessitating increased pressure on brake pedal. Happens every time vehicle is coming to a stop. Extremely disconcerting proceeding down a steep hill.

Vehicle was in for a recall 1 week prior to recalibrate a possible error in the vacuum assist pump to brake system. This week, stopped at a stop sign on a highway, posted speed 45 and the brake disengaged and vehicle lurched forward. Called dealer, service tech says known issue, GM has issued an extended warranty to this model to repair/replace the part known to be faulty. Tech said GM should have mailed a letter saying that if, and only if the brakes failed or became hard to press, bring vehicle in. If there had been a pedestrian or vehicle close, I would have hit them. Bringing vehicle in after the fact would be too late. My vehicle qualified for the free repair so it is being repaired now.
