60k. Groan/squeak is still there. Better or worse on any given day. Guess I've gotten used to it. What's funny is the 114k mile '89 K5 in my aviator does not have a squeaky groany pedal. I might try pulling the boot back and putting some grease on the linkage like a user on another forum did on his truck.

I had this issue on my 2007 Silverado. I found that turning up the radio eliminates the problem............

Wish it were that easy. I actually thought that. So, I took my shoes off. Squeak, squeak, squeak.

WD-40? Usually fixes everything. LOL

So infuriating that the brake pedal squeak and flapper valve chirp are being labeled as "normal" conditions. I've given en up getting a resolution so I have to sacrifice mileage by keeping the valve open or buy a new exhaust. The brake squeak is so bad my family doesn't want to ride in my truck as it is so annoying. After 7 GM trucks, I'm moving to Ford on the next go round. Frustrated!!

I have a 2015 Chevy suburban with the same problem. It only has 40000 miles. I love paying 60,0000 dollars for a vehicle with a squeaky brake pedal.It's out of warranty so I'm sure they will chare me 250 dollars just for them to say yup you have a squeaky brake pedal.

I have 71k on my truck now. Some days the pedal squeaks, other days it does not. Not terrible. My wife's '15 Enclave has 30k on it and the brake pedal does the same thing. Squeaks when you press on it. 2 for 2.

Just purchased a 15 Sierra 1500 slt with 13600 on the clock last Monday...have the same squeaky brake pedal noise...was gonna spray the bushings with some white silicone to see if that fixes it...don’t wanna bring it back to the dealership...owned it for a week and brought it back for a loud blower motor (ended up being a leaf in there) and got the truck back with a scratch on the passenger rear...called them and they gave me a hassle so I fixed it myself...now I have 2 years of free maintenance and a warranty that’ll probably never be used again...I guess even big name dealerships suck too lol

Same  annoying and frustrating problem here.  I’ve had the brake booster replaced twice on my 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe LTZ and still have the problem.  I’ve been a GM man for the last 35 years,  but seriously contemplating seeking a different brand.

Hi, My 2015 Silverado with 18K miles just started doing this also (Squeaky brake pedal) especially on humid days. Chevy dealer will be replacing the brake booster tomorrow.

Jeep Wrangler Jk's have this same issue with the potentially the same "resolution." I had the brake booster swapped on the JK and it was quiet for a few months then came back. So I suspect that those who say they will leave to a different brand will be surprised if they make their way over to Dodge.

Replaced my brake booster and problem solved!

I had a Jeep Wrangler with the same problem. After two failed fixes, replacing the brake booster was also the solution for that.

We have a 2013 Traverse with the same squeaky brake pedal.  Dealership says that is normal.  I told him it isn't normal as I wouldn't have bought it making that noise.  Then the other person in the dealership (a woman) stated that it has happened over and over and there isn't anything that they can do for it.  Come on GM, I have had Tahoes with 250K+ miles that it never happened in, Silverados that it never happened in, I have a GMC 2500 that it has never happened in....  What gives?  It's like fingernails on a chalkboard, this needs to be fixed.  The dealership shouldn't be telling people basically "oh well, live with it"

I have a 2015 Chevy Traverse and every since the dealer did the fluid flush the brake pedal has been squeaking. They told me there was a couple of service bulletins for this issue but I think @ $120.00 is to much just to be told what to do when they should know the problem by now.

      Roll up bed cover experiences

      By StingerZ16 · Posted

      I started with a folding cover by BAK PAC on my 2500. It went bad after close to 5 years. Bent and vinyl coming loose. Contacted BAK and they gave me a very good discount on a Revolver. Had it a number of years. Mostly outdoor storage. Some garage storage. Vinyl started to come loose. Still under warranty so they replaced to cover. Sold the 2500, bought the 1500 and got another revolver for it. Had it a couple years now and no issues. I store it indoors. Got a bit of discount when buying it as well. If you are seeing problems, contact BAK or real truck and let them know. Customer service was pretty good. But I think they changed their warranty.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      I agree, there is no one answer fits all as every rig is different, one may be pulling some little aluminum fishing boat while another is towing a monstrosity that weighs a lot and hopefully the owner if the rig has some prior experience to know what drive mode they should choose.    It also struck me and this is from watching a few of those boat ramp escapades videos in the past, Ford being one of the vehicles that has the auto front axle hubs and sure enough its found out that one hub has crapped out and won't engage and may not have manual hubs to even select on both sides so they are on the boat ramp stuck with no four wheel drive and spinning .... they flat out need a tow to get up the ramp and deal with the vehicles new found issues. That can happen to all brands of pickup, finding out either four wheel drive or 4 low isn't working right at the time its needed it to work as some electronic crap has failed.

      Its possible you never had the joy of the crappy boat launches we tend to have around here or really some of them are just grades down to the river if its a river scenario and the conditions change all the time with the river levels and silt deposits. Some of the lakes we went to years ago, there was no such thing as a cement pad that went down into the water that the trailer stayed on, it was gravel maybe up to the water line and then duck crap much beyond that so sinking the boat tires into mud. Of course some of the more established lakes had a cement bar type boat ramp but sometimes it was covered in green slime closer and certainly within the water and a two wheel drive had all sorts of fun if one had to touch that slime with the rear tires.    A neighbor of mine had made a comment years back with his chev truck that was probably about the same year as yours but a half ton extended cab 4x4 and he a a fiberglass boat with an inboard so it wasn't a feather weight and he had gone out to one of the large popular lakes in the area and don't ask me how this happened but he was in two wheel drive as he figured he didn't require four wheel drive for that boat ramp and somehow upon pulling the boat out he twisted one of his drive axles. I suspect it must have spun and then grabbed on the cement ramp and shocked it to the degree of twisting it. He would have had the standard 8.5 or whatever it was axle housing as the 9.5 ring gear like my truck has also has larger drive axles as far as I know. Anyway he was feeling a vibration driving home and had it checked out and a shop found that the tire/hub was wobbling because of the axle had twisted so in went a new drive axle. After that bad experience he said he made sure to put it into four wheel drive to lower the stress on the rear axle. Of course that is where an HD truck can handle a lot more stress and no doubt these newer half tons with their larger ring gears probably have larger drive axles as well to match vs back in the day.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Desirable - as in does someone WANT one, aspire to have one. Could reasonably buy any car they want and CHOOSE these instead.    I didn't watch the video, why did they win?

      The use of absolutes like "always" to describe gear selection, and giving free advice at a boat ramp sounds like a recipe for disaster. It's a boat ramp, not a farm, for starters.   IMO gear selection should depend on the obstacle. If low range is working and this is a slower speed, controlled ordeal, I'd keep using that.
