Applied brakes to stop, and brake pedal went to the floor. The tahoe slowly stopped after pumping the brake pedal, but reluctantly. I had stopped without a problem only seconds before this incident. Cause of the braking problem according to the repair shop was a broken brake line. The repair shop also indicated that all the brake lines need to be replaced due to severe corrosion problems. The mechanic said that this is a common problem with gm vehicles. As an aside, the tow truck driver who picked up the tahoe said that he has seen many vehicles with the same problem.
2006 Chevrolet Tahoe brakes complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 13 of 13, newest first, as owners wrote them.
2006 chevy tahoe, rear hatch will not unlock/open. Window will not open as well, keyless entry so I have no other options. Safety issue as I have 5 children and there is no manual way to open the latch from the outside or inside of vehicle. Just spent $400 on a faulty acceleration sensor that went out while driving on the highway. Lost power to vehicle on the highway, another safety issue that might need to be investigated.
The parking brake cable frayed and broke, this vehicle has approx 30,000 miles, this can't be normal.
