I ALMOST KILLED A KID TODAY PARKING FOR A BASEBALL GAME. I WAS TRAVELING SLOWLY AND PARKING WHEN MY BRAKES BECAME HARD TO PUSH AND FAILED. TRUCK WENT OVER CURB AND TOWARD KID PUTTING ON HIS CLEATS AND NOT FACING ME. I WAS ABLE TO PUSH AS HARD AS I COULD AND IT STOPPED. I BACKED UP AND BRAKES WORKED AGAIN. I HAVE 46,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK. I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE IT, BUT IT SEEMS THEY ARE WORKING AGAIN. IF THIS IS COMMON, GMC NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF THIS. SOMEONE WILL SOON BE HURT SERIOUSLY!
