Received a recall notice about brakes, stating as the vacuum level drops, the brake assist decreases, increasing braking effort, dealers will reprogram the electronic brake control module, free of charge. i have done this and the problem still exists, especially when driving at slower speeds...i believe replacing the vacuum pump would cure the problem and believe this should be a recall to replace such. not to just reprogram the computer. i have had numerous close calls and feel this is a very big safety issue and a major concern. thanks for your time!
During a turn to a side street the vehicle shut off. all steering and brakes were inoperable. there was an engine malfunction light and a message about there being 2 identical keys for the truck then anti theft flashed. while stopped in the intersection blocking traffic, a message directed to roll down the drivers window then back up. when that was done, electrical came back on and steering was restored. the vehicle was started and is now unsafe for use. the control for being on or off is unreliable and therefore unsafe to use as a transport. 42000 miles on the 2014 high country silverado. no steering. no brakes...that makes it unsafe. would you put your family in this vehicle and ask them to drive safely? how do you justify giving total control to volatile software? how about at 75 mph and it fails? just know it can happen would have ensured i considered another purchase. i believe that information alone will justify someone else's marketing data.
During a panic stop at slow to mid speed someone pulled out in front of me and i hit the brakes only to have a hard pedal and not stopping quick enough. felt like a brake booster issue. the hard pedal and increased stopping distance is a definite safety issue and i will be heading to the dealer asap. i am out of normal warranty and only have powertrain warranty left. shouldn't matter due to safety relation of problem. ## vin passed ## , ##
Brake failure. while backing down my driveway at a speed of only 10-15 mph the vehicles brake pedal became rock hard and would not depress, i am a 220 lb. man who is what i feel in good shape and had to use both feet on the brake pedal and all my strength just to attempt to slow it down. i was unable to fully be able to stop the vehicle when i impacted the corner of my garage which resulted in minor bumper damage , however no one was hurt thank god. the odd thing is once i stopped and put the vehicle in park the brake pedal seemed to build pressure again and was fine? after a little investigation with the vehicle i can recreate the issue if i pump the brakes 4 to 5 times in quick succesion which results again in a rock hard pedal and loss of braking. once i rev the engine in neutral i restore pressure back to the brake pedal and have no issues. i am almost positive this is a brake vacuum issue and will be taking to a mechanic asap to look into it.
I took my truck in for service my brake pedal was getting hard to press even at a low speed. i took in my vehicle and it ended up being the brake vacuum pump that was causing the problem.
