“On Oct 11,2026, at approximately 105,106 miles, I was driving my 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 under 20 mph while entering a short designated turning lane at [location]. I felt a sudden, unexpected bump or jolt. The truck slid slightly and abruptly came to a complete stop, as though something had mechanically locked up. Immediately afterward, the dashboard displayed a “Braking System Failure” warning. A front wheel appeared collapsed underneath the truck, with substantial visible damage to the front suspension and surrounding components. …”
