| Description of the problem | When i start the truck i have to let it idle and warm up for about five minutes. If i do not let the truck warm-up and i put it in gear the brake pedal is very firm and the truck will not stop. The brake pedal pulses like the abs system is kicking on but the truck will not stop. Recently, the truck will not stop if cruise control is turned on. If cruise control is on and i push the brake pedal the brake pedal is very firm and cruise control will not turn off and the truck will not slow down. I have to manually turn off cruise control from the steering wheel and then the brakes will work again. I was driving down interstate 44 in oklahoma when i tried to hit the brakes and the truck did not stop. Before i left on the road trip i let the truck warm-up so that the brakes would work when i first left the driveway. |
