Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Although the truck is rated to tow 9000 lbs the parking brake will not hold my 7000 pound trailer from rolling down the hill forwards or backwards. my 3000 lb boat rolls backwards into the water at a boat launch. the pbrake pedal goes to the floor with little resistance. two different chevy dealers have seen the truck. the first dealer adjusted the brake and it was better, the second said that there was nothing more that they could do. it still rolls with a trailer on it. the dealers said that the low resistance pbrake is a design feature.*ak |
