I was unable to fully be able to stop the vehicle when I impacted the corner of my garage which resulted in minor bumper damage , however no one was hurt thank god. The odd thing is once I stopped and put the vehicle in park the brake pedal seemed to build pressure again and was fine? after a little investigation with the vehicle I can recreate the issue if I pump the brakes 4 to 5 times in quick succesion which results again in a rock hard pedal and loss of braking. Once I rev the engine in neutral I restore pressure back to the brake pedal and have no issues. I am almost positive this is a brake vacuum issue and will be taking to a mechanic ASAP to look into it.

My truck has had 3 instances of the brakes not working correctly in the last 2 months. Each time my brake pedal became very difficult to press down and my truck did not stop in the manner it should have. Each time this has happened it was after stopping and putting the truck into reverse to park it. The brake pedal became hard and wouldn't go down the way it should. After each incident and putting the vehicle in drive the same hard pedal prevented the brakes from working correctly going forward. After stopping, turning off the engine and re starting the vehicle the brakes worked fine. I found a bulletin online that general motors put out where a mechanic inspection should be performed to check if any oil was in the brake vacuum line leading into the brake power booster with the oil stemming from the brake vacuum pump.

My truck has 43k miles on it. Driving it the other day on a city street, I heard a squealing sound, and then the brakes failed.
