Brake failure on June 21 2017, caused accident same accident on November 17 2017 and again on September 1 2019. I have had the truck in shop to be fixed numerous times... ABS sensor in front right wheel was supposedly bad. It did not fix problem bc 3 rd accident happened weeks after. 9/11/19 GM released recall for break failure due to the vacuum booster. My issue is exactly what GM had just announced. Chevy dealer and GM corporate both said there was nothing wrong with brakes but they still give out slowing down intermittently. Why isnt my VIN associated with the most recent recall? because for 3 years no one believed me that the brakes were failing.. I lost months of my warranty and nothing was repaired bc they said they were in working condition and that there was no issues. Also at high speeds the truck shakes and/or vibrates, also told nothing was wrong, I have electrical issue that cause electronic screen to go out, they seen video of it happening but wont replace it unless it happens at dealership when I bring it. This truck has all issues pertaining to recalls but not according to VIN#. the vehicle is not safe to drive. Issue are sporadic and intermittent with no warning. I have received tickets, points, and being sued bc of this. Lost out on months of warranty bc service centers were told not to work on it until GM Corp did there investigation which they said nothing is wrong also.... now finally the latest recall for break failure came out on 9/6/19 but my VIN is not under it and must be because the recall is 100%accurate to what im experiencing with the brake failure. The pedal gets hard, or goes to floor increasing stopping distance... this is unsafe and dangerous on the road.somethjgn needs to be done
