The brakes (rotors and pads) need to be replaced because of delaminated and corroded. I bought the truck new and only have 22,352 miles on it, and this will be the fourth time this truck needs brakes. I did not keep old parts, because the work was performed by a Chevrolet dealer.

2 Brake Disc Pads problem of the 2003 Chevrolet C1500

Failure Date: 06/01/2006

At around 13,000 miles I had to replace the front pads and rotors because the metal on the rotors flaked off and ruined the pads. At around 16,000, I replaced the rear pads and rotors for the same reason. At around 4,000 miles the dealer replaced the front rotors and pads, same reason. I also complained to the dealer about the mushiness of the brake pedal. There is no firm stop and I am glad I have not had to stop fast.
