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.

      not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...

      First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.

      I always drive in Sport mode. With more driving, I am finding the initial response when accelerating is much quicker now🖕 Lou

      Is it an optical illusion in the pic or is the truck really squatting that much horribly?
