STEERING

AFTER STARTING MY VEHICLE REMOTELY USING ON-STAR, MY BRAKES STOPPED FUNCTIONING PROPERLY... AFTER REMOTE STARTING THE VEHICLE USING MY ON-STAR APP, WE ENTERED IT, DEPRESSED THE BRAKE AND PRESSED THE START BUTTON. AT THAT TIME I RECEIVED MULTIPLE ERROR MESSAGES, STATING "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE, 62 MPH TOP SPEED" "SERVICE ESC" " STEERING ASSIST IS REDUCED DRIVE WITH CARE." I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE A NUMBER OF TIMES AND THE ERROR MESSAGES WENT AWAY. I THEN BEGAN TO DRIVE HOME AND AFTER ABOUT 2 MILES THE ERROR MESSAGES ALL CAME BACK AND MY BRAKES STOPPED FUNCTIONING. I WAS ABLE TO USE THE FULL FORCE OF MY BODY ON THE BRAKES TO GET THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A STOP FROM AROUND 30 MPH IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. HAD I BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY OR ON THE MAIN STREET I HAD JUST BEEN ON I LIKELY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP WITHOUT HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE OR OBJECT.

DURING PARKING MANEUVER AFTER COMING OUT OF REVERSE AND GOING INTO DRIVE, FORWARD CAMERA WOULD COME ON AND THEN SWITCH TO NAV SCREEN WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE.

STEERING

AFTER USING APP TO START THE VEHICLE, I SAT IN THE DRIVER SEAT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE AND PUSHED THE START BUTTON. IMMEDIATELY A WARNING POPPED UP SAYING ESC NEEDED SERVICE, SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE, SPEED LIMITED TO 62MPH. ADDITIONAL LIGHTS ILLUMINATED INCLUDING BRAKE, TRACTION CONTROL, ABS, AND CEL. SINCE THE DASH INDICATED THAT THE SPEED WAS REDUCED I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SAFE TO DRIVE, HOWEVER AT THE FIRST TURN I REALIZED MY BRAKES WERE NEARLY GONE AND I WENT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. THE BRAKES APPEARED TO HAVE LOST THE BOOST AND WERE EXTREMELY HARD TO DEPRESS MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I LIMPED THE TRUCK HOME AND NOTIFIED THE DEALER. THE NEXT DAY I TRIED STARTING THE TRUCK AND THE BRAKES RETURNED WITH NO DASH MESSAGES ALTHOUGH THE CEL WAS STILL ILLUMINATED. THERE IS A RECALL FOR A SIMILAR ISSUE BUT IT LOOKS LIKE MY VIN IS NOT APART OF IT.
