1 Brake Abs Warning Light problem

Failure Date: 01/20/2019

I was driving down the road and I was approaching a red light I started to push my brake pedal and I noticed it was extremely hard. I was able to get the truck to stop without crashing I pulled over on the side of the road and shut the truck off. I checked to see if I have fluid in my brakes booster and it was full. I got back in the truck and started it up and everything was fine. A few minutes later my abs light and stable trac light came on. We got the truck to my buddy shop and he when online trying to find a replacement vacuum pump and seen all the complaints about the defective vacuum pump. I called Chevrolet service department and ask them what we could do. They told me to bring the truck in and I could pay full price to have everything fixed and they would give me a ride to pick up a rental car that I would have to purchase.

2 Brake Abs Warning Light problem

Failure Date: 01/04/2018

I have a 2014 silverado with 60k miles. On Sunday, I was pulling into the garage after a short errand and I lost most of the braking power. I was able to stop the truck by pressing the brake pedal hard. I immediately drove backwards and it did the same thing. I restarted the vehicle the issue went away, mind you during all of this the abs light never came on either. Searching online I found a bulletin in some rare situations, a customer may comment on a hard brake pedal or that increased effort is needed to depress the brake pedal. While performing normal diagnostics, fluid may be found in the brake booster and/or the booster vacuum line. If engine oil is found, it is important the following parts are replaced. If not, the condition will return. 1. Vacuum pump 2. Vacuum line between the booster and the pump 3. Brake booster 4. Master cylinder after finding this and reading all the accounts I feel like gm needs to make this a special coverage. This is 100% safety concern.
