Brake pads wear unevenly. Inner pad wears well before outer pad wears. No wear sensor on inner pad. Only indication is metal to metal grinding, by that time the rotors are destroyed. 11-22-2006 had front pads replaced, found rotors damaged. 11-28-2007, rear rotor grinding, inner pad gone, outer pad intact. Heard of similar troubles on full size SUV and pickups manufactured by GM 1994-2004.

2001 Chevrolet Tahoe, went to have it inspected and the emergency brakes failed. I never used them so how can they be worn out? also, when I went to adjust the cable, it was already adjusted all the way that it could go. It should not have been adjusted out all the way. This came like this from the factory and I bought it new. Now the garage want $300 to replace the emergency brakes which are different than the disc pad brakes. They even said that the rotor might be worn out also. This is ridiculous! that's another $300 plus labor.

The front brakes were 40% used. Informed by lee, manager, this is a problem with this type caliper, uneven wear and locking up.

Contact stated that ABS light and brake light came on. He noticed that other vehicles had this problem. Dealership disconnected the ABS. Also, when turning the steering wheel all the way to the left or to the right consumer will hear a clicking noise usually while reversing.

I have a 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe with an ABS brake module failure. The motor/pump that controls the ABS brakes won't turn off. It keeps running even when the ignition is turned off. My ABS light turns on and ABS brakes are now not operative. I read many complaints on this issue on 2001 model Chevy/GMC full size SUV/pickups. I think this is a safety concern that should be addressed immediately to prevent accidents and deaths due to ABS brake failures.

While driving at normal speed consumer applied the brakes, and there were no brakes. An independent repair shop replaced all four rotors. Consumer paid $1,200 for repairs.
