Description of the problem | I own a 2015 silverado high country with 73k miles. Over the past month or so - when backing into a parking garage spot at work, i have lost most of the braking power. The brakes felt really hard and felt like it was all the way to the floor. I was able to stop the truck by pressing the brake pedal hard real hard several times in order to stop safely with out running into the retaining wall. This issue has happened several times when pulling into my driveway or a parking spot at a grocery store. I almost bumped a car in front of me in a parking lot spot and decided to start parking out further to keep from hitting any other vehicles. At my most recent oil change, i received a report that my brakes were all "good" based on the service tech's inspection. This is a really dangerous situation that needs to have a recall placed to gm to get this issue fixed on all affected trucks. |
