Brake Foundation Components Problems of Chevrolet 1500

I had serious problems with the brakes on my 2004 chevy silverado k1500. The dealer looked at it 3 times and said everything was ok, but the delaer never even drove it to check out my complaint. This vehicle had less than 12,000 miles on it and it would not stop on a sharp decline unless the brake pedal was constantly held all the way on the floor. I paid an outside compnay to repair the problem because the chevy delaer would not do anything to fix this unsafe vehicle. I have since sold the vehicle but have spoken to other chevy k1500 owners who have the same complaint. Those brakes are defective and unsafe, people are going to get killed because chevy refuses to admit to the problem of poor safety design!.
