NHTSA complaint #11760984, filed 2026-08“I was driving down the highway last Friday. I went to slow down to get into another lane and My Tahoe started saying “break failure” and I had no breaks to stop my Tahoe. I pressed the break as far down as I could and had no way to stop. I took my foot off the gas and I drove 10 mph to the dealership 1 mile from my location and coasted to a stop. The dealership called today and said they were needing to replace the entire break module and system. I am so scared to drive my car now. I had my children in the car and I thought we were literally going to wreck.”
