2013 Chevrolet Tahoe Electronic Stability Control Esc Service Brakes Problems

JULY 16TH, 2019 MY 2013 CHEVROLET TAHOE LTZ WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT OF TOTAL LOSS. TRAVEL SPEEDS WERE 30 MPH. IN ATTEMPTS TO STOP DUE TO VEHICLES TRAVELING IN FRONT OF MINE HAD COME TO ABRUPT STOPS MY BRAKES FAILED TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE STOPPING WHILE STRAIGHT LINE STEERING. THUS I WAS FORCED TO STEER LEFT TO AVOID COLLISION. MY BRAKES WERE QUICKLY APPLIED, MODERATE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVEL, BRAKES WERE SLOW TO RESPOND WITH MINIMAL BRAKING. THERE WAS COLLISION WITH THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, CLIPPING THEIR DRIVER SIDE REAR BUMPER TO MY PASSENGER SIDE FRONT CORNER FENDER PEALING IT BACK LIKE A CAN OPENER. THIS HAPPENED ON A STATE HWY. THE STABILITRAC INDICATOR AND SERVICE BRAKES HAD APPEARED ON AND OFF IN THE VEHICLES DIC INTERMITTENTLY OVER THE PAST MONTH. NO CODES PRESENT. THE VEHICLE HAD NEW BRAKES (ROTORS, PADS AND BRAKE FLUID), 43 DAYS PRIOR. IT HAD 138,627 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. 1) WE ARE LUCKY THERE WERE NO INJURIES RESULTING FROM THIS ACCIDENT. 2) FOR A VEHICLE THAT WAS PURCHASED FOR $61K AND PAID OFF, 6 YEARS LATER LOSSES 2/3 OF ITS PURCHASED VALUE. 3) HAVE NOW HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE AND BACK TO BEING $20K IN THE HOLE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS A DIRECT RESULT FROM THE CURRENT RECALL GM JUST ANNOUNCED THAT COVERS 2014-2018 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN AND TAHOE MODELS. GM STATES AS THE VEHICLE AGES, THE PUMP IN THE POWER-ASSIST BRAKES CAN PUT OUT LESS VACUUM THAN NEEDED, INCREASING STOPPING DISTANCE AND RICK OF A CRASH. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V645

MY 2013 CHEVROLET LTZ TAHOE BEGAN EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT WARNINGS THAT THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEMS WERE OFF AT AROUND 60K MILES. BY THE TIME THE VEHICLE TIT 65K THE FAILURES BECAME REGULAR AND ARE NOW LIT CONSTANTLY. THESE ARE SAFETY FEATURES THAT SAFEGUARD THE OPERATOR AND PASSENGERS DURING HARD/EMERGENCY BRAKING OR DURING WEATHER WITH SNOW, ICE AND RAIN. THESE KEY SAFETY SYSTEMS NOW ARE NON FUNCTIONING AND THE VEHICLE IS RATHER UNSAFE WITHOUT THEM. THIS IS A $70+ K VEHICLE AND IT HAS KEY SAFETY FEATURES FAILING VERY EARLY INTO ITS LIFE. IT IS UNBELIVABLE THAT CHEVROLET IS NOT HELD TO ACCOUNT BY FEDERAL REGULATORS FOR SUCH SIGNIFICANT SAFETY FAILURES. HOW MANY TAHOES ARE IN SERIOUS ACCIDENTS EACH YEAR DUE TO LOSS OF ABS BRAKING AND TRACTION CONTROL LOSS?
