SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
REDUCED ABILITY TO BRAKE MY TRUCK ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENT.. WARNING LIGHT POPPED UP ABS, BRAKE,TRACTION CONTROL WITH WARNINGS GOING ACROSS DASH LIKE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE 62 MPH TOP SPEED, SERVICE TRAILER BRAKES. CODES C0021 P0606,& P25A2. HAD UPDATE FOR THIS PROBLEM A COUPLE WEEKS AGO AND IT WAS SUPPOSE TO FIX THIS THE DEALERSHIP SAID OVER THE PHONE WHEN CALLED TODAY. NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE .I AM PRETTY SURE THAT UPDATE JUST UPDATES THE MESSAGING LETTING THE DRIVER KNOW HE OR SHE IS ABOUT TO DIE. TAKING IT INTO DEALER LATER TODAY. ZF TRW INTEGRATED BRAKE CONTROL (IBC) HAD EARLY MANUFACTURING ISSUE LEAVING METAL SHAVING IN THE UNITS. THESE SHAVING WOULD SCORE THE WALLS AND DAMAGE UNITS,NO ONES INVESTIGATING THIS ISSUE BECAUSE IT WOULD COST GM TOO MUCH TO REPLACE ALL IBCS IN EVERY TRUCK DURING EARLY STAGES OF THE T1 LAUNCH. TRW KNOWS OF THIS ISSUE AND HAS PILES OF THESE SITTING ON ENGINEERS DESKS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON ALL EARLY PRODUCTION T1 TRUCK TO REPLACE THESE IBCS. GM HAS ONLY BEEN REPLACING THESE ON A CASE BY CASE BASES WHEN SOMEONE REPORTS THIS PROBLEM AND THEIR VIN NUMBER FALLS WITHIN TRW SUSPECTED PROBLEM DATES. BY THIS TIME ITS TOO LATE AND CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENTS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE REAR BACKUP CAMERA IS FULL OF STATIC INTERFERENCE AT NIGHT CREATING SAFETY ISSUES WHEN TRYING TO BACK UP. IT'S VIRTUALLY UNUSABLE AND CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD ESPECIALLY WHILE TRAVELING WITH MY TWO CHILDREN. I'VE ALMOST CRASHED INTO DIFFERENT OBJECTS OR VEHICLES IN ATTEMPTS TO BACK UP THE TRUCK. I TOOK THE TRUCK IN TO HAVE THIS FIXED, TWO WEEKS AFTER BUYING THE VEHICLE. THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I NEED SOME HELP ON A RESOLUTION.

SERVICE BRAKES
ON THE EVENING OIF 1/11/20, I WENT TO THE PARKING LOT AND STARTED MY TRUCK AND MULTIPLE WARNINGS CAME UP ON THE INFO CENTER FOR THE BRAKES - BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE MAX SPEED 62MPH; SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE SYSTEM; SERVICE ESC. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ALSO ILLUMINATED. I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF, RESTARTED IT AND RECEIVED THE SAME MESSAGE. I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY DRIVE THE TRUCK THE THREE MILES TO MY HOUSE WITH VERY LIMITED BRAKING CAPABILITY. WHEN MY HUSBAND WENT OUT TO CHECK THE TRUCK 15 MINUTES LATER, THE BRAKES HAD RETURNED BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ILLUMINATED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL DEALER FIRST THING MONDAY MORNING AND WAS ADVISED TODAY THAT THEY DIAGNOSED A PREMATURE FAILURE OF THE MASTER CYLINDER. THIS AFTER THE SOFTWARE UPDATE IN THE PREVIOUS RECALL HAD BEEN COMPLETED APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS PRIOR. THE SERVICE ADVISER NOTED THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON ISSUE AFTER THE SOFTWARE UPDATE AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING ACROSS THE COUNTRY. I BELIEVE THIS NEEDS TO BE A NATIONWIDE RECALL IF THE CURRENT SOFTWARE UPDATE IS CAUSING THE MASTER CYLINDER TO FAIL AT THIS RATE.

SERVICE BRAKES
TWICE WHEN PULLING A SMALL EMPTY TRAILER RECENTLY, I CAME TO A STOP SIGN AND HAD ALMOST NO BRAKING POWER. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS HARD AS CONCRETE WITH ALMOST NO TRAVEL AND I HAD TO STAND ON IT TO STOP THE TRUCK WHICH ROLLED INTO THE INTERSECTION BOTH TIMES. BOTH ATTEMPTED STOPS WERE FROM A LOW SPEED AND I DIDN'T HAVE ANY ISSUES BEFORE OR AFTER AND NO WARNING LIGHTS. GOOD THING I LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN WITH VERY LITTLE TRAFFIC OR I COULD HAVE BEEN T-BONED.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
STARTED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE AND THE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS NEARLY GONE. BRAKE PEDAL WAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THE TRUCK HAD TO SLOW TO A STOP. THANKFULLY I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AND NOT ON THE ROAD BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE PUT MY WELL-BEING AT RISK ALIGN WITH OTHERS. GM SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL ALL OF THE VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM!!! HOW CAN ANYONE BE ALLOWED TO SELL A VEHICLE THAT WILL NOT PROPERLY STOP WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED?

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), STEERING
ON 1/10/20, I WAS DRIVING HOME ON A MAJOR FREEWAY. JUST BEFORE 5:00 PM I HIT TRAFFIC AND SLOWED DOWN TO ROUGHLY 5-10 MPH. AT THAT MOMENT MY DASHBOARD LIT UP AND A NOTIFICATION STATING, "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE" AND "SERVICE ESC" POPPED UP ON MY DASH. AT THAT POINT I WAS UNABLE TO STOP WHEN APPLYING MY BRAKES. LUCKILY I HAD A LARGE ENOUGH SPACE BETWEEN MY TRUCK AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AS WELL AS THE TWO LANES BESIDE ME HAVING AN OPENING AND I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER AND COAST TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE SHOULDER. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ELECTRONIC MALFUNCTION. HAD I LOST MY BRAKES 10 SECOND SOONER I WOULD HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO STOP AND CAUSED A POTENTIALLY FATAL CAR ACCIDENT.
