2015 CHEVROLET TAHOE Complaints

DURING SLOW MOVEMENT, SUCH AS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN IN TRAFFIC, THE BRAKE PEDAL WILL GET HARD AND THERE WILL BE NO BRAKES. THIS HAS ONLY OCCURED DURING SLOW MOVEMENT SO FAR, BUT I'M NOW CONCERNED THAT IT COULD HAPPEN AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THE DEALER OFFERED A REPAIR FOR $691.00 BUT THIS IS A MANUFACTURERES DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE UNDER RECALL.

IM DRIVING THE CAR AND RANDOMLY STOPS LIKE DIED ALL THE POWER AND BRAKES, LIGHTS AND RADIO GO OFF AND I HAVE TO PARK THEN THE CAR WONT START AFTER FEW MINUTES

BRAKES FAILED BECAUSE OF FAULTY VACUUM PUMP. PULLING A TRAILER AT THE TIME, LUCKY TO BE ALIVE. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BEFORE MORE ARE INJURED OR KILLED.

TRUCK WILL BARELY STOP AT LOW SPEEDS. REPLACED BOOSTER AND STILL HAVING ISSUES. I WAS BACKING INTO A PARKING SPOT AND ALMOST HIT A WALL.
