2005 GMC sierra k2500 pickup truck. Problem - brakes fade when coming to a complete stop. Brakes work fine until vehicle slows to 5-10mph at which time brake pedal loses pressure - unexpectedly increases stopping distance by 10-15 feet creating hazardous condition. Attempted resolution - replaced all four brake rotors and pads at own expense. Problem still exists. Went to dealerand discovered that this is apparently a common problem related to the anti-lock brake sensors located in each wheel assembly. They claim this braking system failure is due to normal wear and tear and not a manufacturers defect or faulty design. . . My problem is this - if the dealer (and, by extension, the manufacturer) knows that the brake system is going to start failing after a few years of operation, then how is this due to normal wear and tear and not a design defect??? this is clearly an example of a manufacturer putting out a product that they know will fail in time and, thus, create a hazardous safety condition.
