This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
While driving applied brakes hard when vehicle ahead stopped suddenly, pedal went all the way to the floor, causing extended stopping distance, resulting in a rear end collision.
ABS brake problems; while drivng on normal road conditions and applying the brakes, a howling noise came from the brakes. When taken to dealership, dealer stated that brakes were worn out, and needed a right rotor. Both rotors were damaged. The right rotor was replaced and the brake pads were replaced. The left rotor had to be grinded down. There has not been a problem with the brakes system in the last year.
The vehicle was placed in the park position, placed the vehicle from park into drive and the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard, resulting in an accident. Also there was brake fluid leaking from the master cylinder which caused the problem. GMC states that there is no defect, however dealer, who is now out of business, stated that brakes were cause of accident.
