Sierra 1500

  • 161 miles
While driving my truck approximately 45 mph on a street, I heard the vehicle notification alarm sound, I looked down at the dash and had several warning lights illuminated:I had four messages: Service ESC service trailer brake brake system failure - 62 mph top speed steering assist reduced drive with care lights on dash that were illuminated ABS check engine brake traction control before I could read each warning light, a red stop light was approaching. I was at that time I pressed on the brakes and realized that my brakes were extremely spongey. I figured I only had about 10% braking power. With my two year old in the back seat, I pushed as hard as I could to stop my truck. Luckily, by the grace of god, I was able to stop my truck without rear ending the car in front of me. My truck was then towed to the dealership. I bought the truck 5 days prior. My truck has approximately 161 miles on it. The dealer told me the next day I needed a new master cylinder and hydro boost. Probably the absolute worse component to fail on the driver while the vehicle is in motion.

Have about 6000 miles on my 2019 GMC seirra denali 5.3. I've been experiencing a very troubling issue been to the dealership once already and had a hard time convincing them that something was wrong with the truck.every time I drive for long periods of time or idle for 10+ mins when I shift from park to drive I cannot go faster than 5 mph without the rear brakes locking up. I do not know if this is some kind of limp mode or what.
