2009 Chevrolet Silverado Brakes Problems

I HAVE A 2009 CHEVY PICKUP AND EVERY TIME YOU PUT THE BRAKES ON THE TAILLIGHTS COME ON BUT THEY WONT GO OFF WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE PEDEL.NOW I'V CHANGED OUT THE SWITCH UNDER THE DASH 3 TIMES STILL THEY DO THE SAME THING SO I WENT BACK TO THE OLD SWITCH. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TELL ME PLEASE I NOTICE I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS THIS PROMBLEM???????????

THE BRAKE SYSTEM WENT OUT. THE DEALER REFUSED TO REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY, BECAUSE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS IS THE SECOND 2009 WITH BRAKE PROBLEMS. ....UPDATED 04/02/15 *BF

EXTREME CHATTERING OF THE REAR BRAKES UPON APPLICATION WAS OBSERVED BY THE OWNER/DRIVER, INCLUDING LOCK-UP OF THE REAR WHEELS (EVEN THOUGH ABS EQUIPPED). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE AUTONATION CHEVROLET SUPERSTITION SPRINGS DEALERSHIP (6330 E. SUPERSTITION SPRINGS BLVD, MESA, ARIZONA 85206) FOR INSPECTION AND REPAIR (SELLING DEALER). THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED THE OWNER THAT BOTH REAR BRAKE SLAVE CYLINDERS HAD FAILED AND LEAKED HYDRAULIC FLUID ONTO THE LININGS. THIS LEAKAGE HAD CAUSED THE STICKING OF THE LININGS TO THE BRAKE DRUMS AND RESULTING CHATTERING/LOCKUP OF THE BRAKES. POST REPAIR, THERE HAVE BEEN NO FURTHER ISSUES IN THE LAST 3000 MILES OF USE. THE REPAIR WAS AT THE EXPENSE OF THE CUSTOMER. AS THIS OCCURRED AT 36094 MILES AND FOUR YEARS OF SERVICE IN RESIDENTIAL USE, I CONSIDER THIS A PRODUCT FAILURE DUE TO SOME FORM OF MANUFACTURING AND/OR INSTALLATION DEFECT WITH THE BRAKE SLAVE CYLINDERS. IN 40+ YEARS OF AUTOMOBILE OWNERSHIP OF MANY BRANDS WITH MILEAGES INTO THE 140K+ RANGE, I HAVE NEVER HAD A SLAVE CYLINDER FAILURE, NOR HAVE I EVER HEARD OF A DUAL FAILURE. THIS WAS THE SAME COMMENT BY THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN AT THE DEALER. PLEASE INVESTIGATE, OR AT A MINIMUM, ADD THIS TO YOUR WATCH LIST DATABASE. I REVIEWED THE NHTSA'S WEBSITE LIST OF DEFECTS, BUT FOUND NOTHING REGARDING THIS TYPE OF INCIDENT. THE FACT THAT IT WAS A DUAL COMPONENT FAILURE AND COULD HAVE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT IF HARD BRAKING HAD BEEN REQUIRED BY THE OPERATOR, THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. I ATTEMPTED TO DO SO PERSONALLY, BUT FOUND THE EXPERIENCE UNSATISFACTORY. *TR

USED THE VEHICLE FOR VACATION IN 2011 AS IT WAS JUST 1 YEAR OLD. VERY LITTLE BRAKE PED LEFT GOING DOWN HILL. GOING DOWN HILL AND STEP ON THE BRAKE AND THERE WAS A BAD VIBRATION AND GROWLING NOISE FROM THE BRAKES. I HAD IT CHECKED AND THE DEALER GROUND THE BRAKE ROTORS. THIS NEVER SOLVED THE PROBLEM, SO THEY REPLACED THE ROTORS. THIS SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR THE WARPED ROTORS FOR A WHILE. NOW THE PROBLEM STARTED AGAIN WITH 23000 MILES AND ONLY GROWLS AND VIBRATES WHEN GOING DOWN HILL WHERE YOU HAVE TO STEP DOWN A LITTLE HARDER. HAD IT CHECKED OUT AGAIN AND THEY SAY THE ROTORS ARE WARPED AGAIN. I REPLACED THE ROTORS AND PUT NEW BRAKE PADS ON AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE. I DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE HARD AND ONLY ABOUT 4000 MILES PER YEAR. WHATS CAUSING THE BRAKE ROTORS TO KEEP WARPING. *TR

WE COULD HEAR THE TRUCK MAKING A GRINDING NOISE AS WE SLOWED FOR A STOP SIGN. WHEN WE LOOKED, THE WHOLE BRAKE PAD WAS MISSING FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR BRAKES. THIS CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE ROTOR. WE HAVE SINCE REPLACED THE REAR BRAKE PADS SEVERAL TIMES BUT THE FRONT BRAKES HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACED A SINGLE TIME.

2009 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. CONSUMER STATES PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE ROTOR *TGW THREE WEEKS AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE SERVICED FOR A FRONT ROTOR PROBLEM. SINCE THEN, THE ROTORS HAVE BEEN TURNED AND REPLACED. ON AUGUST 24, 2010 THEY WERE TURNED AGAIN. *JB
