AS I APPROACHED SLOWING TRAFFIC WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON, I TAPPED THE BRAKES TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL, ONLY TO FIND THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS RIGID AND COULD NOT BE DEPRESSED.  TO AVOID A COLLISION AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED I SWERVED ONTO THE RIGHT SHOULDER WHILE USING TWO LEGS TO AGGRESSIVELY PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN - ALL THE WHILE FEELING VERY LITTLE BRAKING ACTION.  THE CAR CAME TO A STOP AFTER ABOUT 75 METERS.  AT NO TIME BEFORE OR DURING THE EVENT DID THE CAR SIGNAL A BRAKING SYSTEM PROBLEM.  IN FACT IT STILL SHOWED NO SYSTEM INDICATOR OF A BRAKE PROBLEM 3 DAYS LATER WHEN IT WAS DELIVERED TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS.  THE CAR HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED, HAVING JUST UNDERGONE A 60K MILE SERVICE AT THE DEALERSHIP.  THE LACK OF THE VEHICLE'S RECOGNITION THAT A CRITICAL FAILURE IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM HAD OCCURRED POSED A SERIOUS AND IMMEDIATE THREAT TO PASSENGERS AND SURROUNDING TRAFFIC.  AS A PHYSICIAN I CAN ATTEST THAT A COLLISION AT THAT SPEED WOULD HAVE SEVERELY INJURED OR EVEN KILLED THOSE INVOLVED. THIS PROBLEM WITH THE 2015 CHEVY SUB HAS REPORTED TO NHTSA BEFORE - THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED EVENT. THE SERVICE CENTER REPORTED TO ME THAT A VACUUM PUMP FAILURE WAS TO BLAME - I BELIEVE THIS IS A MORE COMPLEX ENGINEERING PROBLEM IN THAT THE VEHICLE DID NOT DETECT A PROBLEM DESPITE THE FAILURE CREATING A LIFE THREATENING SCENARIO.  ALTHOUGH I PLAN TO IMMEDIATELY DISPOSE OF THIS CAR, FAILURE TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM BY THE MANUFACTURER WILL PUT OTHERS AT RISK IN THE FUTURE.  GM APPEARS TO HAVE ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN THAT REFERS TO THIS PROBLEM (ATTACHED). I SINCERELY BELIEVE THIS DEFECT WILL RESULT IN LIVES LOST IF LEFT UNADDRESSED.
