SERVICE BRAKES
I WAS GOING THROUGH A DRIVE THROUGH RESTAURANT, STOPPING AND STARTING WITH CARS IN FRONT OF ME. WHEN I TRIED TO STOP THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY HARD TO PUSH AND VEHICLE DIDN'T WANT TO STOP. I SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE AND RESTARTED. THE BRAKES REVERTED BACK TO NORMAL. HAD I NOT BEEN GOING MOVING SLOWLY THIS DEFAULT WOULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT.

WHEN I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION. WHEN APPLYING THE GAS, THE CAR HESITATED. I WAS TOLD THE CAR WAS "LEARNING" AND THIS WAS PART OF THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. NOW THAT THE WARRANTY IS OFF, IT NOW NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION.

TRUCK HAS 120,000 MILES AND ON THE WAY HOME FROM SHOPPING ALL THE SUDDEN MY TRUCK WOULDN'T SHIFT PASS 3 RPM'S AND BARLEY MADE IT THE HILL. AFTER STOPPING TWICE TO LET THE TRUCK REST I MADE IT HOME. THE DTC CODE WAS P0796 PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID 'C' PERFORMANCE OR STUCK OFF OBD-II TROUBLE CODE. SEVERAL OTHER REPORTS ARE FOUND WITH THE SAME ISSUE SOME BELIEVE IT'S THE TORQUE CONVERTER. I REALLY USE TO STAND BEHIND GM BUT MY DISAPPOINTMENT ON THIS EXPENSIVE TRUCK HAS REALLY CHANGED MY OPINION.
