Consumer Description

There is a trailer brake warning that comes up, sometimes 10 times in a single mile of driving on the freeway. It beeps very loud and I cannot hear anything else. It is distracting to drive and I am unable to shut it off, I can only dismiss. I am now not sure if I can tow with my Tahoe because I fear there is something wrong with the trailer brake system. It is loud enough that if something else was wrong, I may not be able to hear it happening with the warning sound going off so often. I don't know exactly what is going on but my best guess is that it is either with the wiring, as this happens when I am not towing, or there is a sensor of some sort that is faulty. In any case, I don't think it is safe to tow because of potential hazards of the trailer brakes not working, or even worse, the trailer brakes locking up and me causing an accident.
