Brake pedal does not raise after applying brakes. Brakes remain engaged causing drag and brake lights stay on. Intermittent problem. Must pull pedal back up to stop braking action and get brake lights to turn off. Dangerous situation that can cause damage to brake rotors and pads to wear out quickly.
Brake pedal does not raise after apply, remains applied and brake lights remain on unwanted when car is in motion and stationary on streets, highways and while turning. Gm issued an internal bulletin on 05/11/2018 (see pic5692d) recognizing that this problem exists among 5 of its models (Buick Lacrosse, Buick regal, Cadillac srx, Cadillac xts and Chevrolet malibu) with the Lacrosse problem beginning 2010 through 2015. Brustolon, a gm dealer in mystic, CT charged me $70. 63 to replace the pedal and retainer clips. Given how widespread this problem has been among several gm models for up to 6 years, this repair should be the responsibility of gm as a recall at no cost to the vehicle owner. This situation is a significant safety issue because the brake pedal when depressed remains applied wearing the brakes out prematurely.
