Electronic brakes lock up during driving. No power going to rear wheels.

- Harlingen, TX, USA

I experienced issues with braking including shuddering brakes. I took the vehicle to a repair shop who looked into any active recalls and there were none, I had the electronic brake control module recall completed in 2019. The shop replaced the front brakes and resurfaced the back which did not fix the issue. They then replaced the vacuum pump which did fix the issue I was responsible for all costs. I recently noticed my vehicle is covered under special coverage N182202780 through 2027 which covers the cost of the vacuum pump replacement. Chevy is refusing to reimburse for the costs because the work was not done at their dealership despite not having a recall that States that. I would like the issue addressed theough a formal recall and reimbursement of repair costs as Chevy is obviously aware there is a safety issue related to braking due to failing components.

We were on vacation driving to Florida by the time we arrived 1500 miles later I had no brakes. This happened on a Friday. We called our mechanic in Oklahoma to explain it to him. He had us check a few things to see if it was a number of thing. He said it was the brakes vacuum pump. He had one in the shop for the same thing. You can't get in to a Chevrolet dealer to have it fixed in the time that we had. My husband did fix it but was extremely scared to drive in South Florida with limited to no brakes. My truck only had under 80 thousand miles on it. We live in a rural area so it's not like constant braking.

We were heading on vacation to Florida on the evening of [XXX].While driving [XXX] towards Athens, Alabama we heard a squealing noise from our engine that lasted a minute then it stopped. We got off at the closest exit and realized that we had -??No Brakes -??. I prayed for our safety. Our truck ran through two stoplights that were red at the time. I downshifted the vehicle and stood on the brakes (hard pedal) and jumped over two concrete curbs before it finally came to a stop. We had it towed to Champion Chevrolet dealership in Athens Alabama. They diagnosed the problem as a brake vacuum pump that locked up and broke the belt too leaving us with no brakes at all. Champion Chevrolet worked us in and replaced the vacuum pump and belt.And got us back on the road for our vacation. We had to pay for a tow truck $100. An overnight stay at a hotel $150. I-??m concerned about the tires, rims, alignment and suspension being damaged by jumping over the concrete curbs. I-??m requesting a free inspection at a local Chevrolet dealership to thoroughly inspect and repair any damaged parts and a realignment. I also am out of pocket $250 for the tow and hotel room. I feel I-??m being fair to ask for reimbursement and repairs. The dealership didn-??t charge me for the repairs of the vacuum pump and drive belt as it was covered by a special recall (N182202780). Please direct me for escalation of reimbursement, complimentary inspection and repair of my 2017 Silverado suspension or damages involved in this incident.

excessive squealing noise coming from rear brakes from both sides of truck. I am original owner, and truck has less then 15,571 miles on it. Drove it to Chevrolet dealer in Kingsland Ga to evaluate. Before I arrived, about a 15-minute drive the Brake towing warning light came on. I was told by the dealership that both Brake Calipers had to be replaced as well as the brake pads that were damaged due to Brake Calipers locking up. The brake Rotors were fine and needed nothing. Repairs cost me around $1000 dollars. I think this is an unusual event due to the low milage, truck has always been garaged and dealership maintain. It's in brand new condition. Pulling a camper or trailer or even normal driving without towing could potentially cause an incident, fire or wreck. My truck is gasoline not diesel not included in the current safety bulletin. Truck was kept for 2 days for repairs.

This is a complaint in regards to the trailer breaking system in my certified pre-owned 2017 Chevy Silverado that I purchased in April of this year, 2024. I purchased this truck in particular for its high ratings in safety and towing capabilities. (April- May 2024) While towing a 22ft trailer from Virginia to Washington state, there were several moments where the -??service trailer braking system-?? alert would appear on the dash. Driving on the interstate for days on end is twice as stressful when you have to wonder if your trailer brakes are reliable. If the trailer brakes were to suddenly stop working it would be dangerous for me and my passengers, as well as those around me on the road. (Sept- Oct 2024) We aren-??t towing a trailer anymore, but the -??service trailer braking system-?? light has been going off every couple minutes.
