What was an obvious defect in the US banking system that was exposed during the Great Depression?
Ironically, the failure was caused in part by success. The economy was roaring in the 1920's, and the stock market was booming. The market was so attractive, in fact, that everyone wanted in, whether they had the money available or not. People and companies borrowed money to buy stocks or bought them on credit. Many stocks were bough on margin, or for a faction of the price, the resold at a profit, without the full purchase price of the stock ever having been pain. This practice led to risky investments and speculations. When the market began to fall in September 1929, nervous investors began to sell their stocks. In October, the panic spread, everyone tried to dump stocks, and the market collapsed.Thus began 'The Great Depression.'

The whole "growth" of the economy for many years had been based on phony loans given out to increase home ownership. These loans were given to people who couldn't afford a house (so the end result was already predetermined). People used this "fake" wealth to improve their houses, buy things, and bid up stocks for many years. When credit finally ran out the system collapsed and stocks adjusted to the fact that the inflated values were not real.
