Brake Pedal Travel
NOTICE:
See your dealer if the brake pedal does not return to
normal height, or if there is a rapid increase in pedal
travel. This could be a sign of brake trouble.
Continuing to drive with worn-out brake pads
could result in costly brake repair.
Brake Adjustment
Every time you make a brake stop, your disc brakes
adjust for wear.
Some driving conditions or climates may cause a
brake squeal when the brakes are first applied or lightly
applied. This does not mean something is wrong with
your brakes.

you get new approved GM replacement parts. If you
don’t, your brakes may no longer work properly.

front and rear brakes can change -- for the worse.
The braking performance you’ve come to expect can
change in many other ways if someone puts in the
wrong replacement brake parts.
