Low brake peddle if I drive in reverse

I just notice the other day when I drive up my driveway in reverse and press the brake paddle the paddle goes almost to the floor, but if I drive forward like driving down the road forward it's OK,, has anybody else had this happen?
PS I did check the fluid it's OK and the pads/ shoes or 80% good.
Thanks

Hey HarleyTom,

Our moderators and other forum members are great resources to help with this, but an official diagnosis from your local Chevrolet dealership would be extremely useful to determine the cause of this issue. If you'd like me to arrange one for you, I'd be more than happy to contact your dealership on your behalf. Please PM us with your VIN, mileage and contact information and we can proceed with that!

Feel free to send any other questions our way. We're here to assist!
