Automatic Emergency Braking problem #1

Driving at hiway speed and towing a 40' travel trailer the transmission failed and put my family in grave danger. Gm is aware of this issue as they have issued a service bulletin due to an engineering flaw. . . . ( transfer case input and out put shaft failure) this needs to be a recall before someone is killed or injured ( wheels locking up at hiway speeds).

Automatic Emergency Braking problem #2

1st incident: when driving the vehicle dashboard shut off, no indicators working such as speedometer, gauges etc and brakes were not working, luckily I was in a 60 miles an hour zone so I had to just let the vehicle come to a gravity stop. To turn off the engine and start it back up again. 2nd incident: when driving the dash lights turned off and on like flickering on and off and all the gauges mentioned above did not work, and brakes did not work. This is very scary! all power in the truck is lost while driving and braking issue!.
