| Description of the problem | Driving my 2006 armada, and when i went to stop, there was a loud grinding noise, the brake light came on, and there was no braking power. I slowed to a stop and had to turn off the truck and back on and the noise and grinding was gone. Drove it about 1 mile and went to slow down for a turn and the same thing happened with the grinding noise. Once again, there was no braking power and when i restarted the truck, it went away again. Why isn't anything being done for these 2006 armadas because this seems to happen quite frequently and someone is going to get killed if they can't get stopped in time! |
