1 Brake Light On problem

Failure Date: 07/10/2019

On July 8 I took my Suburban in for the 30,000 miles service. Everything seemed fine, I drove it the next day. I didn't noticed any problems. On the 10th, I started noticing my brakes didn't want to stop. Also it was like it was rolling back, especially when you were at a slow speed. In the beginning I thought I was overreacting until it kept happening. It was very scary I'm thankful that I didn't hit anyone. Because it was uncontrollable. When I got him I'm on a slight hill & it was rolling as I'm trying to stop it with my brakes. After talking to my advisor after 5 because I was so upset that I just spent 410 dollars on Monday. They said they didn't have any loaners however they were able to accommodate me. I also wonder why they didn't catch this on Monday. I did notice that there was a brake assist light appeared. I definitely feel like this should be a recall on this situation. So my vehicle is at the dealership I don't know any further details yet. Thank you.
