Chevy Tahoe 1999, we have owned this vehicle for four years and put 40,000 + miles on it, it now has 102,000 miles. In that time frame we have had to replace the front roters and pads four times. In January of 2002 I had an accident at slow speed in slushy road conditions where the vehicle did not stop over a travel distance of 100'+/- it was blamed on driver error and poor road conditions, since that time we had a complete failure of the front brakes with no accident and fortunately no injury. A third incident resulted in no property damage or accident.

Excessive wearing of brake pads, brake shoes due to the intermittent engagement of the power booster while driving. Took vehicle when it first had this problem to two different Chevrolet dealerships and was told that because I could not prove the booster's premature triggering that it would not be covered under warranty, in other words they told me if we don't see it as being broken we aren't fixing it.. they did not acknowledge the existance of a safety bulleting saying in fact that the power booster was prone to failure. Since then I have had to change out the brake pads twice at my own expense. I replaced all parts with gmac factory parts and replaced the power booster with a GM rebuilt power booster.
