Guys,

Finally have some time to post pics of the brake problem. If you saw my post on how our GMC was appearing to me to be falling apart just one week before our trip to Yellowstone, you read that one of the issues I had was with the brakes. To recap, as I was departing the driveway I had no brakes. The brake light came on and I had to pump it several times to get the brakes back. Well as Ken H suspected, one of the brake pads fell apart (thanks Ken). See below pictures (also on the photo sight).

The last picture is a piece of the brake pad at the end of our driveway. Apparently these piece was the last remaining piece of the pad and as I rolled down the driveway it departed and when I applied the brakes that caliper further extended thus the momentary loss of braking. Remaining pads looked okay. Replaced them with NAPA "Ultra Premium" brake (Semi-Metallic) pads.
