| Description of the problem | When applying brakes, pedal goes real low and there is a grinding sound with no braking. Simultaneously the brake light goes on. I have to pull over and turn off engine and truck resets because i can drive away as if nothing occurred. Had checked once and nothing found, there are no recalls but several blogs and complaints included on this site for same issue. Now dealer wants to charge me $927 for booster. I have read and followed up on some consumer complaints and this action does not fix problem. |
