2025 Chevrolet Trax Brakes Problems

Came out to my new 2025 Chevy Trax with Stabilitrac and Antilock Braking System faults on the dash on March 27, 2026. I immediately contacted the dealer I bought it from since it only has around 3200 miles and made an appointment (4/1/26) to bring the vehicle in. They inspected the vehicle and told me the brake master cylinder is bad and they would have to keep the vehicle since it could fail completely and I would be without brakes thus unsafe to drive. I was also told was the part was on back order and no ETA on when the part would be made available. They have had the vehicle since April 1st, I was given a loaner from the dealer after having expressed my displeasure that GM would not fully cover the cost of a rental vehicle while I wait on a critical part of the failing braking system that they are failing to provide their dealer. Luckily the braking system never failed prior to diagnosis.

The contact rented a 2025 Chevrolet Trax. The contact stated that, while her husband was driving at 25 MPH on a decline and attempting to slow the vehicle upon approaching a curve in the road, the brake pedal depressed all the way to the floorboard but failed to bring the vehicle to a complete stop. As a result, the driver briefly lost control of the vehicle, only coming to a complete stop after colliding with the vehicle ahead. The air bags did not deploy. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic but instead returned to the rental company. The contact was unaware whether the vehicle was repaired. A police report was filed, and no injuries were reported. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 14,700.
