While driving my truck I was in line picking up my kids from school when pulling up close to the car infront of me my brakes got extremely hard and the truck kept slowly moving forward so I pressed harder to make sure I wouldn't accidentally hit the car. I just now saw a recall on the vacuum pump which in assuming is my issue with the harding of the brakes. I have not took it any where to be investigated yet.
Trailer braking system kept indicating that it needed service. While pulling an RV trailer the brakes would pulsate (especially going downhill). This resulted in several “uncomfortable” and dangerous braking situations. The module has been replaced, but the dealership kept the defective part so it is not available for inspection. The dealership saw the message being displayed and diagnosed the event prior to replacing the part. This component should have been covered under a national recall as it is a safety hazard!.
I was trying to stop in reverse, no pedal on braking. . . Put in drive it had pedal and a light came on in dash to " service brake assist".
