Brakes Failed problems of the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Brake system failure on 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. Multiple dash warnings notifying of brake failure, esc failure, and service brake system warning.

I was parked at a local lake when I started my 2020 chey truck and noticed several warnings on my instrument cluster. Brake system failure, check engine light, service esc & service trailer brake. I backed up slowly and notice my brake pedal was hard and it took a lot of effort to get it to stop. There was a warning that said drive no faster than 43 mph. The truck would not exceed 43 mph. I drove it home about 3 miles. When I got home I turned off & restarted the truck all error codes were gone, but the engine light was still on. The brakes seem to be working fine, but I am still taking it to the dealer Monday to be safe. I have read that this is a common problem and should be a recall, but I could not find one for my vehicle. Everyone that owns one of these trucks should be informed about this issue. If people are not aware of this problem there will be some serious accidents because of these brake failures. Never thought I would have this problem from a chevy.

2020 silverado lt with only 4660 miles was parked in a neighborhood drive way where our 17 year old son had spent the night with a friend. He started the truck to leave and immediately had several alarms; brake system failure, drive no faster than 62 mph, service trailer brake, service esc. He tried to ease out of the drive to test brakes, about 5-10 mph; he had no brakes, zero brakes! he rolled to the edge of the driveway and turned the truck off. After about 5 mins he started the truck again and the brakes were working and alarms were cleared but check engine light remained on. This was a very dangerous situation and could have led to much worse ending. After researching online, we found that this is very common and gm has done 2 recalls on this problem yet if you aren't aware of it, you, your family or other innocent drivers could be killed because gm and the NHTSA have not moved strongly enough to warn owners, there should be a nationwide �do not drive� alert issued on these vehicles. I have contacted my attorney to see how to proceed and our son will not risk his life in this truck again. No brakes and no emergency brake!! would gm's ceo let their 17 year old drive these dangerous trucks? the NHTSA needs to take immediate dire action on this, look at your own website at how many complaints there are on this exact problem! my attorney read your site and he says you all can't deny knowing the problem exist, take action before drivers die. Gm and NHTSA are being negligent on this and I will gladly testify in any class action lawsuit and unfortunately there will be some. Gm should do the right thing and immediately advise all drivers of 2019-2020 chevy silverados to stop driving their new $40,000 trucks and call a local dealer to come get it. Drivers who read this please be advised, this is very dangerous and some gm driver will die because of this brake failure.

I was driving around 40 mph and it was then that my vehicle alarm went off and screen advised that my brakes had failed. I could not stop my vehicle and had no brakes.
