I 'am having trouble with my brake pedal getting hard when I come to a stop or when parking, at a stop sign, anytime I 'am at a stand still the pedal will get hard on me. This is a safety hazzard to me because if your not paying attention you could hit the car in front of you or behind you. This happens all the time !!!

The truck shakes at speeds of from 35 mph, then it stops and when driving on the highway at speeds between 60 and 70 on the thruway it shakes again. The vibration is transferred through the gas pedel and into the seats and console. Also when brakeing it shakes. Its been in for service several times for this since I bought it. Also the voltage meter drops and I lose dash board lights.this happens while the vehicle was in motion on both city and highway driving. I'm tired of loseing valuable days off to drive up to denooyer Chevy in albany to have them look at this again. The truck travels straight and true but shakes at those speeds, sometime it makes a drowning sound as it happens.its in the front end part of the suspension I believe. The tires were all high speed balanced and air is perfect in all 4 tires. Has anyone experienced this?

While driving into town from a weekend trip, when trying to stop for a red light from the highway, the brake pedal immediately became stiff and wouldn't slow the vehicle. It required both feet pressing down hard on the pedal in order to stop the vehicle in time. After turning off the truck and restarting it, the brake pedal released its pressure and I was able to drive normally. However, when coming to a stop to back into my garage, the brake pedal again, was under pressure, and would not stop my vehicle unless excessive force was applied. I was able to stop the vehicle, just feet from the wall in the alley. I believe this is a major safety concern. Luckily, I didn't have any issues while going 75 mph on the highway, or I probably wouldn't be able to write this. I was able to get the vehicle towed to my local Chevrolet dealership and was told they the vacuum pump was the cause of this issue. After having to shell out more than $700 on a part for a truck that's a 2015 with 63,000 miles with no other issues, is ridiculous. This is a major safety concern while operating the vehicle, and it should be covered by Chevrolet. This isn't a part that should fail on the vehicle.

At low speeds and or starting from a stop and reapplying the brakes the brake pedal gets extremely hard and will not hold the vehicle from rolling forward. You must press the brake pedal as hard as you can with both feet to try to keep the vehicle stopped. I have to put the vehicle in neutral at each stop. Each occurrence has happened on a city street.

My brakes failed to work when I was pulling into my parking lot. It seems to happen intermittently and only at low speeds. The brakes worked again later in the day. I took the vehicle in to the dealership I purchased it from (river view Chevrolet in mckeesport pa) and they said they did extensive test but could not recreate the issue and could not find a problem that would caused the brakes to not work.

Takata recall.. while driving my truck, 2015 Silverado with only 38K miles.. a (warning light ) displays (service trailer brake system) it continues to chime & display on the dash non stop even if I have a trailer hooked up to the truck or not & it does not matter what speed I'm driving. This is a safety issue due to when I am towing my trailer as soon as it displays the service trailer break system light, I lose the ability to use my electric trailer breaks until the display shuts off.. it would be appreciated if this issue can be checked in to.. I did see they had a recall & the same issues for the 2014 models but not the 2015

The vehicle was driven to moran Chevrolet (located at 4511 24th ave, fort gratiot twp, mi 48059, (812) 202-4062) where it was diagnosed that the vacuum pump, brake booster, brake lines, and brake master cylinder needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 63,324.

Brake pedal gets hard at slow speeds making stopping very diffulcult especially when backing my boat into the lake. I seriously thought truck and boat were about to go into the lake.

- Fond Du Lac, WI, USA

Very stiff brake pedal while trying to park at slow speeds. Could not press the pedal hard enough to stop the vehicle while I was backing into my parking spot. This is very dangerous as there are pedestrians and other vehicles in the parking lot. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle. It also happened when I backed into my parking space when I returned home.

Brakes went out while driving on freeway and I had to push the brake pedal down as hard as I could to get truck to slow down while I moved over to the shoulder. It turns out the vacuum pump on my braking system went out.

My complaint or safety notice is that on August 12 2018 the brake pedal on my 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 began compressing a short distance and then became extremely hard, the vehicle is by all physical means nearly impossible to stop even at a very slow speed. I had my truck towed to my dealer believing it was not safe to drive, and was advised that the "brake system vacuum pump and booster had failed due to internal contamination. There is no warning in the vehicle sensing system to advise the operator to have the brakes serviced for this issue. Chevrolet issued a technical service bulletin (tsb #pit5361A & #pit5361B) in 2016. Obviously they are aware of the problem. Mine brakes failed after just pulling in my driveway from a 600 mile trip. Had this happened at highway speed, I would have likely been injured or killed, as would any vehicle occupants in a car I could have potentially hit. I have researched the problem online, and there are an endless amount of complaints posted for this exact problem. Unfortunately there has been no recall that I can find. It will cost me $1626 for the repair, I assume the replacement parts are the same type that failed. Undoubtedly someone is going to be seriously injured or killed, there are individuals and families driving around as I write this complaint that are unaware their brakes might fail the next moment they need them. Ask yourself if this has already caused serious injury or death, but the failure perhaps could not be pinpointed due to the damage of the crash, remember there is no sensor or warning for this issue being logged into the cars computer system. Odds are this has already caused harm. I'm asking that a recall be implemented and a safety warning be immediately released for vehicles that have this design flaw in the braking system. Your immediate intervention could save a life.

Brake system fails at low idle speed. When truck is put in gear the brake pedal becomes stiff and vehicle cannot stop. Brake pedal also does this in stop and go traffic. Chevrolet says this is not a safety issue. How is this not a safety issue" the problem is a mechanical pump called a power brake booster pump. We were told this can be replaced for $1100 and is not a warranted part. The only way to keep brake pressure at low speed is to hold your foot on the brake pedal and give vehicle gas to increase the RPM's. how is this safe"

Slow speed no brakes hard pedal.I just read about 100 complaints with the exact same issue. Why is there not a recall on this yet. I don't have $1200 to fix this.

When brake pedal depressed the braking system has malfunction. Brake petal has little movement, feels hard and vehicle does not respond. Takes a great amount of pressure to stop vehicle than vehicle still moves.

Several times commuting in to work, wife said brakes felt funny, hard to stop. I would drive and have no problems, then it finally happened to me in at a busy intersection. Tried to stop but truck kept rolling, lost braking power and the truck slid forward. Managed to stop but happened again two days later and it happened at a higher speed. Brake pedal goes real stiff when in stop and go traffic and it is hard for the truck to stop. Going approximately 20 mph, the car in front slows down to turn. I applied brakes and the truck was hard to stop. The brake pedal went stiff as I was pushing down hard. The truck felt like it was slowing down but barely. I almost hit the car before it turned. I took the vehicle to the dealership and they diagnosed the problem as the brake booster vacuum pump and pipe. I called the corporate office and told them that I am having a safety issue. They said that it was not a defect or real safety issue. They said that the truck was out of warranty. It only has 61,156 miles on it as of 9 July 2018. The first time the issue occurred was in May 2018. At that time I had about 59,000+ miles on the vehicle. There are several complaints regarding this issue. A couple of certified mechanics stated that this part should last much longer than it has. I would like to start a class action lawsuit. Service bulletin #pit5361.

Vehicle fails to stop at low speeds while parking in forward or reverse.

On my way home pulling a 5000 lbs boat and trailer on a public highway and suddenly my brakes get hard as a rock and loose the ability to basically stop with any quick response. After limping the truck a short distance to a friends business I learn this truck has a brake power assist pump"??????????" call me old fashion but the vacuum usually comes from the intake manifold, not a rinky dink pump with a belt to drive it. Totally unsafe in my opinion. Something as important as brakes to be relied on a rubber band and a 5 dollar china bearing. I feel this is a poor and unsafe design and could easily been avoided. Now comes the enjoyment of having it repaired and only a dealer available part. Truck just turned 50K and my dealership is telling me this item is not.covered under warranty.

On two separate occasions within a 1 week period, the brake pedal became impossible to depress with the vehicle in motion. A noise could be heard similar to that of an active ABS. The first time this occurred while pulling into a crowded parking lot. I had to use the emergency brake to prevent a collision with a parked vehicle. The second time this occurred, I was parking at a curb in the main area of my town and again had to utilize the emergency brake to avoid hitting a parked vehicle. Internet research leads me to believe this to be a common issue with multiple reports of the same experience.
