Service Brakes problem #1

I ran an update on my c8 Corvette, left the car till it was completed. The next day I left with the car and went through the stop sign and through 2 lanes of traffic and almost down a ditch. I live in a country setting. I almost had a very serious accident. I had no brakes. The dash said service brake assist, service asc and brake failure. Although my car only has 758 miles it has run with no issues since I took delivery of it in September 2021. This happened because of that update. On the Corvette forum I have 2 documented experiences of 2 other 2022 c8 Corvette owners with the exact same issue as me. As of this writing I'm waiting to be towed to apple Chevrolet in tinley park I'll. This is a very serious problem. I will be afraid to drive my car now as I've had a terrible experience. I'm 73 years old. Please feel free to contact me at baczorro@yahoo. Com or 8158069808 thank you.

Service Brakes problem #2

Experiencing an ongoing problem where the brakes pulsate and vibrate badly, especially after rotors and pads get hot. I am concerned about the safety and possible failure of the brakes if it is not corrected. - the vehicle was purchased as cpo at antwerpen Chevrolet dealership in eldersburg, MD with 2155 miles on it. The carfax noted the front brake rotor(s) were resurfaced. I questioned it and the dealership assured me they would take care of any issue I had with it. - I started experiencing the pulsating at 2550 miles. I went to the dealership and they were very helpful and ended up replacing the front rotors and pads. It appeared to be corrected. - at 3253 miles pulsation started again. Dealer replaced the rear rotors & pads & rechecked front rotors/pads. Ok for a while. - at 3897 miles it started again. Note: each time the dealership was able to duplicate the issue including the service mgr and the general mgr. The front rotors were turned/pads checked. Ok for a while. - at 4037 miles it started again. Service manager was able to duplicate. Through all of this, multiple cases have been opened with general motors by myself and the dealership. It has been escalated to various levels. Mileage was put on the car as gm escalation process was ongoing. They then replaced the front rotors and disc pads. - at 5150 miles it started again. This is a serious safety problem as it is a constant concern how reliable the brakes will be. Full details are documented on the following pages with dates. Please reference the Corvette forum link that backs up this is a problem for 2021/2022 z51 Corvettes and not just my issue [xxx] gm's answer is that this is normal for a Corvette z51 package. This is a concerning response. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
