There was a recall on the brake pressure when vehicle was moving slow. i had the recall corrected/completed; however, it still has the problem. so their solution isn't fixing the problem. when you are driving at a slower speed and apply the brakes it feels like the go out and the vehicle doesn't stop. you have to press brakes really hard.
Brake assist is on and hard to stop my truck

There has been loss of power braking at low speeds. the brake pedal has a vibrating feel as it is pressed. the pedal will go down all the way to the floor with very little braking power. i took my truck in for the recall work for the same issue which had no effect. i had a prior problem with a fuel injector going out with less than 50,000 miles on the truck. this caused loss of power in situations where power is needed such as merging on to a freeway. this is a very dangerous situation where someone could be killed. chevrolet says the fuel injector is not part on the engine even through the maniford had to be removed to replace it. the part was not replace under under warranty. this part should not be failing under any circumstance.
Truck has issues stopping at slow speeds. extreme pedal pressure is required to stop the vehicle. when towing, and attempting to back up a trailer, the pressure required on the pedal makes maneuvering extremely difficult to control and unsafe. brakes are a vital piece of equipment, and are needed to safely operate a vehicle in today's driving environments. i had this looked at by a dealer's service department. they informed me of a recall and said they "adjusted the sensor", but that has not corrected the issue.

Poor braking performance at low speed. vehicle continues to travel a short distance after brakes are fully depressed. caused minor collision when backing out of a parking space. brakes have been inspected by dealership on multiple occasions and been deemed to be operating properly. symptoms are most noticeable when applying brakes repeatedly; e.g. stop and go traffic or making a multiple point turn.
Unexpected and intermittent loss of power brakes. evident at slow speed (when backing). first application is normal, second brake application is power assist is reduced by half, third brake application has no power brake assist. safety hazard when backing as unexpected loss of assist can damage equipment and cause injury.
We were driving in sevierville, tn in very busy tourist traffic going about 25 mph with 2 babies in the back and pulling a trailer with a polaris ranger. when i went to hit the brakes, there was no movement of the brake pedal. i couldn't press it in unless i used 2 feet and applied hard pressure. once the brakes were pushed all the way in, it used enough brake to come to a stop. the mechanic said we need a new vacuum pump and brake pads. this could have been much worse if we would have made it to the interstate.
Braking is very difficult when at low speeds to stop, it is nearly impossible. i have had many very close accidents where i have almost hit other vehicles due to not being able to stop properly. it is my understanding that this issue is due to the brake vacuum assist pump. this needs a recall!
At low speeds of 15mph or less, when brakes are applied, the vehicles brake assist stops working and the electric to the car flashes off. if speeds are low enough and you apply brakes while turning right at a light or stop sign, the vehicle will shutoff and steering wheel locks. this is a huge safety issue and poor design.
2015 chevrolet silverado. consumer writes in regards to brake failure safety recall. *ld the consumer stated the vehicle was in a minor fender bender due to the brakes failing. the consumer also owns another vehicle with the same failure. *js

My truck is showing signs of the defective vacuum pump. problem was sparatic and noticed it shortly after purchasing the truck with 95,000 miles on it. now at 105,000 miles it started happening more frequently so i researched it. randomly at slow speeds like pulling into a parking spot or my driveway or easing up at a stop light in traffic the brakes lose all power assist. it feels like the abs is kicking in and the truck just keeps rolling. it takes about all the force you can give to get the truck to stop. will be bringing the truck into chevy this weekend. was hoping for a recall before i had to dish out the money since it does seem to be an extremely unsafe premature brake system failure with no warning until the truck does not stop.
Brakes seem nonexistent at low speeds. hard brake pedal and does not feel like its going to stop
Brake pedal become extremely hard to press when vehicle speed is under 10mph
Loss of brake. dealership says faulty vacuum advance told that i missed the special warranty period. brake petal is like stepping in rock and truck won't atop. twice almost hit a car or a wall
The brakes loses pressure at low speeds. the pedal feels soft. there is no boost to the brake pedal. this makes breaking very difficult. there are no warning indicator lights on dash to notify of probem
I was entering a structure parking at low speed when i needed to stop to give the right of way for cross traffic , at this time i proceeded to put my foot on the brake and the brake would not allow me to stop. (the brake pedal became stiff and it would not allow me to press it down). luckily i did not strike the vehicle crossing and at this point i was using my emergency brake. i further realized my truck was no longer stopping on demand, but more of rolling to a stop. i contacted a local dealer and they said they couldn't help me because they were busy which i think is unaccepatable i would have to wait over a week to take my truck in for this service. brake failure should be a priority for any automotive dealer.my truck has about 33500 miles and i have maintained and serviced it properly.
Unexpected total loss of braking while baking up, then hard brake pedal with no travel going forward. i was at a complete stop put vehicle in reverse to back trailer in and all of a sudden brake was completely hard with not pedal travel extremely hard pressing on brake cause extremely marginal stopping power vehicle slowed slightly.
Brakes go out numerous times and it is hard to stop even when the brake pedal is pushed all the way down on the floor. this occurs on the roadways and parking lots in heavy traffic/ congested areas.
While backing my truck up at slow speeds if i press the brake pedal 3 or more times my brake pedal gets hard and vehicle will not stop with no warning lights my truck almost went into lake
While braking at low speeds the vehicle loses power assist to the braking system making it hard to stop. most times i have been in a parking lot parking, however i was in baltimore city traffic last week and the problem happened. kinda scary. any help would be greatly appreciated.
At time when driving slowly the brakes feel hard which makes it hard to stop
Brakes become difficult to operate and/or inoperable on 2015 chevy silverado 1500. typically occurs at low speeds when parking. this has happened numerous times over the years. this has caused me to back into a parked vehicle and has caused many near disasters when positioning the camper. i have just received a notice from gm that they have acknowledged the problem, but are not taking full responsibility. they are offering to make some repairs under a "special coverage program," which excludes my vehicle due to mileage. this should be a full and complete recall for all vehicles effected.
When driving at low speeds it hard to stop, the brake get hard and the vehicle is harder to stop.
When braking frequently in a parking lot or at low speeds the stopping power gets worse and almost will not stop the vehicle. i have 86,760 miles on my truck currently but this has done it since 20,000 miles and since then off and on.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. after accelerating from a stop and attempting to brake, the vehicle failed to stop. the contact almost crashed into the rear of a police cruiser. the vehicle was taken to chris myers gmv dodge (27163 us-98, daphne, al 36526, (251) 621-8885) where it was diagnosed that new brakes were needed. the vehicle was not yet repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 32,382.
When traveling in low speeds, usually in reverse, i have to increase my break pedal effort and press really hard to stop the truck. this does not happen every time i drive it but it does happen often.
Increased brake pedal effort, hard brake pedal, and/or potentially increased stopping distance due to low mechanical vacuum pump output. condition is more prevalent at low speed when softly applying the brake. decrease vacuum/power brake assist over time, failure to follow recommended oil change intervals could contribute to conditions. driver's information center (dic) "service brake assist" alert will activate 2-5 minutes after dropping in vacuum level, and diagnostic trouble code (dtc) will also be set. hydraulic brake system remains functional but may require additional pedal force.
My vacuum pump on my 2015 high country silverado is going bad, is what the chevy dealer diagnosed after i explained how when i reverse specially it feels like my brakes are failing and then the peddle gets super hard. they said its not normal but how do you feel safe in my chevrolet truck if my brakes can suddenly go out?
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. while driving down a hill, the brakes failed and the vehicle slid before finally coming to a stop. the dealer was not contacted. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and no assistance was provided. the failure mileage was 72,425.
Brake assist vacuum pump fails. special bulletin issues with warranty extension. what gm is failing to tell people, braking does not simply become difficult at low speeds, brakes fail at normal speeds. vehicle in motion at highway speeds, eventually able to get it stopped after extreme extension of normal braking distance. after suggested warranty repair i continue to experience intermittent issues.
Have been parking or backing out of parking spaces and brake hardens and locks while vehicle is moving. has also happened while stuck in slow traffic. this has happened multiple times on different days.
I have been complaining of a braking issue since i purchased my truck in 2015 and have had them inspected at several chevy dealerships, stonebriar chevrolet n frisco, huffines chevrolet in lewisville. we have moved and i took into today and now that the truck is out of warranty i'm being told i have a faulty vacuum pump that could cause my brakes to fail. the dealer, peters chevrolet in longview, also states unforuntely he cannot see my service records to confirm the previous brake checks which is ridiculous. this is a known issue and gm is taking no accountability in this and demanding a change of $600 to replace. please help.
Loss of power braking while traveling slowing and using the brakes
Brake failure , while pulling into or out of a parking spot , brakes lose pressure and become very stiff and stop working. the pedal becomes quite hard and will not work causing vehicle to continue moving forward or reverse. especially at slow speeds, i have barely missed impacting the cars across the parking lot.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. while driving approximately 30 mph and approaching a red light, the brake pedal was depressed, but felt very hard. the contact had to pump the brake pedal several times to stop the vehicle. the contact stated that the brake failure occurred for the past two months on a daily basis. the contact also stated that the headlight assemblies were fractured and caused the headlights to be very dim. the contact drove the vehicle to jud kuhn chevrolet (3740 hwy 9 e, little river, sc 29566) and they offered to repair the headlight assemblies; however, the contact would have to pay half of the repair cost. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 65,216.
Vacum pump for brakes went out. when backing up or pulling forward at slow speeds the brake pedel stiffins up and doesnt stop the vehicle.
When backing down a steep incline, there is a complete loss of power brakes. i can barely stop the vehicle when backing down my driveway. this will be a safety issue when i back a boat into water. the dealer advised replacing the vacuum pump and hose with new design.
Brakes stop working at low speeds or when reversing. feel like they get completely stiff at low speeds, and dont work again until i increase the amps. i have read that it is an issue with the vacuum pump. getting looked at today. truck has 77k miles on it.
I was driving to the store with my family everything fills fine when i get to the parking lot i try to stop and my truck just keep going i have to use the parking brake to stop the truck i drive around to make sure that happens because is a new truck it thas it again so now my truck is parked on my house because is not safe to drive
While driving in stop and go traffic the vacuum power assist for the brakes failed multiple times making it much more difficult to brake and stop the vehicle before colliding with the car in front of me. this happened while driving on city streets. a vehicle warning message appeared in the drivers information display stating service brake system. the message went away after sustained continuous driving without braking when the vacuum system was able to recover.
