GMC brake problems
Owners have filed 10,512 complaints with NHTSA about the braking system on GMC vehicles — 17% of everything reported about the brand, across 129 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the GMC Sierra 1500, worst in 2015.
These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
