The side curtain airbags deployed while i was driving on a paved roadway. I did not hit anything prior to incident. Gm states that they will not take responsibility for the truck. I was thankfully not injured and no one else was injured. There is no physical damage to the truck at all. Gm has absolutely no concern for the public safety. The recall on the airbags had been "fixed" by bob howard dealership in oklahoma city the month before the airbags deployed. The seatbelt recall was also fixed the month before as well.

Bought my vehicle 2 months ago and airbag light and airbag service light came on. Went to get checked out and the passenger retractable sensor is bad and needs fixed. This should not be an issue with my newer truck.
While city street driving my 2015 chevrolet silverado (approximately 38,500 miles) on 5/14/20 at varying speeds in normal conditions, the air bag warning light appeared.upon subsequent drives (both highway and city streets), the air bag warning light again appeared.no passenger was sitting in the front passenger seat.the truck was brought to an authorized gm dealership on 5/21/20 to address the issue.code boo81 was scanned and wiring checked.dielectric grease was added to connector and power removed temporarily from passenger presence module.technician noted the module "relearned" and road test showed no further issue.the power was reconnected.while highway driving on 5/26/20 at varying speeds in normal conditions, the air bag warning light again appeared.on subsequent drives (both highway and city streets), the air bag warning light would turn on then off.additionally, 5 audible warning dings could be heard but no warning lights were seen.no passenger was sitting in the front seat.after bringing the truck into the same gm dealership on 6/2/20, the service advisor recommended the passenger presence module be replaced; however, there are no available passenger presence modules in the united states.service advisor told me when the air bag warning light appears, no air bags will work in the truck.as of 6/4/20, i was assigned a senior advisor by gm to oversee my case.the truck remains parked at the dealership as it's currently unsafe to drive.no one has been injured as a result of this issue.
Subject vehicle was traveling south and stopped at a red light in the left lane at an intersection of two 4 lane highways.there was a semi truck stopped beside it in the right lane that proceeded to go and turn right on the red light.when the semi truck started moving, driver of subject vehicle thought the light had changed and proceeded south and struck the driver side of another truck that was traveling east through the intersection.driver suffered head injury resulting in paralysis.air bags did not deploy.vin indicates vehicle is subject to recall #16v651 (airbag sensor software defect).owner says no notice has been received.
The side impact airbags failed to deploy. I was ( t boned) side impacted with such force to propel my my truck 90 degrees and into the ditch. I was wearing my seatbelt. The other driver was charged with the accident.i impacted the doorframe with my lt. Arm and chest, and my left temple struck the window frame. The truck was totaled. As a result of the vehicular collisioni suffered pulmonary contusions, 3 broken ribs, a lacerated spleen, and omental lacerations. Had the side curtain airbags deployed my injuries would have been significantly reduced. This problem was noted in the accident report. Attached. I have not reported thisto a dealer geico has inspected the vehicle i reported to the the issue with the airbags . No warning lights or any other indication that the airbags were inoperable at any time in the trucks history. I am the first owner of this truck and it was well maintained . I was expected to get at least another 10 years service from the vehicle and maintained as so.i have attached the accident report.
While on a dirt road driving at a slow speed, the side curtain airbags deployed.the vehicle did not hit anything and no other damage occurred.gm sent a 3rd party to evaluate the vehicle and declared the warranty void since we had installed a 4" lift kit.there is currently a recall for takata airbags on this particular truck but gm says this is unrelated.this vehicle was purchased new in march of 2016 and had 5089 mileswhen this incident occurred.how can gm deny this claim.shouldn't they have to prove that the lift kit caused the deployment if that is their reason for denial? no where in the warranty information does it state installing a lift kit can cause the side air bags to deploy.no where on the information provided from the lift kit manufacturer does it state your warranty could be void if you install the kit. This isn't right. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Side rail airbagdeployed knock me out and total my vehicle.
The vehicle was a total loss. Loss control while avoiding a deer. Slid into ditch. Hit a driveway entrance. Was airborne approx. 15 yards. Nose dived into the ground and went back across the ditch into a field, turned left and went into a wooded area of pines. Left front fender made contact with a pine (about eight inches thick ) partially up rooting and continued on to wedge between two pines. Air bags failed to deploy and the seat belt tighten up so tight that i had to use a fairly large screw drive,that i had in the center console, to beat the release in order to unlock the seat belt. With the vehicle getting airborne and nose diving into the ground and the impact of the left front fender intothe tree, the air bags should have deployed. The vehicle was traveling south east on a highway it was approx. 9:30 pm.
I was trying to miss a deer unsuccessfully and went off road and the side of road had a bank drop off and as i was trying to get my 2015 silverado 1500 back on the road the rear end started sliding down then my truck tuck off down embankment and rested on a couple trees one ofwhich i hit head on. After i came too ilooked down and noticed my airbag had not came out on the steering wheel just on the sides. So i was thinking maybe my truck was not hurt that bad. As you can see from the photos that i was lucky to be alive and to pay this much money for a vehicle and the air bags that is supposed to save your life does not work makes me really upset even though i really loved my truck. Accident early mornings of october 7, 2017.

I have a 2015 chevy 1500. It is my daily driver,(in alabama) so when my ac stopped working i figured it needed recharged as i do use it quite often. Recharged it and it worked for 2 days. Then out again. So i recharged it and used the dye to see where the leak was located.can not see where a leak is anywhere. My truck is just out of warranty.there are 1000's of complaints, why is nothing done? i understand that ac is not a necessity to some but with a 7 yo that has asthma, living in alabama it becomes a necessity.oh, fyi when your air not working neither does your defog. When driving home at night its so bad you cant see out of the window. I have almost wrecked 4 times bc of it. I did hit a dog bc i couldnt see it..... And to think all the 1000's of people having the exact same problem bc of a flawed design. You may want to take note before paying a lawsuit bc someone lost their life bc of something simple and known.
Vehicle was being operated on a paved road when the rear window defroster was turned on to clear snow on the outside.several moments later i heard a hissing sound coming from the rear interior of the pickup cab and then looked into the rear view mirror, at which time i saw smoke emitting form the lower corner of the passenger side fixed window pane (this is 3 piece rear window where the middle pan opens via electrical switch).the hissing continued with the smoke that was coming from the lower corner of the window nearest to the central window panel.i immediately recognized the odor of an electrical fire (burning insulation) and then turned off the rear window defroster switch.the hissing sound and smoke ceased.a few seconds later 8 heard a loud 'pop' sound come from the back window and observed that the entire rear passenger side window had shattered, in place with the fracture line emanating outward from he area where the smoke was first observed.
I'm having issues with my chevy silverado dying out while driving when i'm making turns that will cause the truck to have error messages popping up with regards to the stable trac sensor, the airbag light coming on, the radio going in and out, and the ac going out/coming back on. While backing up the truck is locking up on me, and the steering wheel is jerking out of my hands, which will dye out as well. When i go to start it back up the truck then gives me an error message of roll down the drivers side window that you have to do in order to clear it out. I've currently had this at the chevy dealership the past 6 months without them being able to fix this numerous times.

Smoke emerged from the bus bar located at the bottom of the sliding rear window. The smoke stopped when the vehicle was turned off.

The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 80,914.
Headlights flickering when on. While in motion my stabilitrack light illuminates along with the seatbelt light. When using the turn signal the radio display goes out for about a second and turns back on. When braking the radio display goes off for a second. I get a low battery signal maybe 2 or 3 times a week, i drive my truck daily. It has 76k miles. I lose power steering after about 150 mile drive. Its been happening for about 3-4 months. 4/22/2019 was the worst. All of it happened yesterday on a 175 mile drive
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While operating the vehicle, the instrument panel lighting suddenly became very dim. The driver was unable to read the instrument panel gauges. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer (public service gmc in marquette, mi) and was examined by the manufacturer's engineers. The engineers determined that the vehicle was operating normally and no repairs were performed to correct the issue. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vin was not available. The failure mileage was 200.
Loss of power steering, all digital screens go black, computer shuts down, finally resulting in the vehicle completely shutting off. At this point nothing operates including 4 ways. After 2-3 minutes all resets and truck starts and operates again. Dealer and gm techs have gone through the truck for a week with out a solution. This has happened at least 10 times ,with a few times being in a potentially dangerous position. All electrical,all grounds and obc are in good working order. There is no solution and this is not the only truck with this issue. Gm has a major and potentially lethal problem and have not put out a recall as of yet. This would lead me to believe they have not figured out the issue or are waiting for fatalities before investigating.
The stabilitrak notification appears and the steering wheel moves on it's own to the straight position. It has happened while backing up more than once. Also, the stereo screen has blacked out and the vehicles power cut out on my wife while she was driving on the interstate.
Three times at dealer for water leaking on passenger floor,just went over my three year bumper to bumper warranty,after third attempt,i dont knowhow much damage to eletrical system, leaks when washing or raining.
One morning when i was driving my 2015 chevy silverado, i noticed a message on the dash board screen which read "right rear tail light signal failure. I went to the nearest auto parts store and purchased replacement bulbs and noticed that the bulbs weren't the problem. I also checked the fuses and did not find any blown fuses which again wasn't the problem. However the right rear tail light will turn on if the lights are on but will not blink when the signal light is on or if the brakes are engaged. Later that night i realized that none of the interior lights worked either; weather the light is in the door position or the on position. I'm not really sure what the problem is but with this truck being so new with less than 45000 miles, these problems shouldn't be happening.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that the vehicle rear window defroster system failed. In addition, the defrost system was emitting smoke.the contact stated when the auto start system automatically startedthe window defrost system and the contact was concern that there was a voltage noise that emitted under the electronic covers. The contact took the vehicle to axelrod buick gmx (6603 brookpak road parma, ohio 44129) to have a diagnostic performed. However, the dealer advised that the vehicle was not covered under the manufacturer warranty repair and the dealer was unable to diagnose the rear window failure. The manufacturer advised that the vehicle was not included in the customer satisfaction program n192265660. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 62,200.*dt
My truck was recalled i received a call from my dealer about the recall. I took my truck to decatur james woods chevrolet which performed a recall on the eps module for a steering recall. Note prior to me taking my vehicle in i had no problems or issues. I take my truck in for documented oil changes and scheduled maintenance. Once they did the recall flash update reprogramming i picked up my truck and on the way home the dash lights blinked off the stabilitrac error and tow haul error both came up. I called the service dept immediately on the way using hands free system and the service advisor told me the recall couldn't cause that. On the road to my house the steering wheel jerked out of my hands light sprain to my wrist and almost took me off the road as the brakes also failed to work very well. The truck died to a stop. When i restarted it showed no errors and all worked again. The next morning when started it displayed a calibration error and had me open and close my driver window. When driving to my dealership jerry's chevy it blinked the dash again when i used my blinker to change lanes. The power and rpm where all over the place and running very rough. When i got to jerry's they basically told me they couldn't touch it and take the liability and to take it back to decatur they had messed something up. Next morning to to local mechanic we have used they put computer diagnostic on it and showed all kinds of errors as we test drove while hooked up. He said the recall program has evidently caused communication issues to other modules and can tear up the truck. I took it back to decatur they said they couldn't get to it and to come back the next day. I dropped it off truck still having issues and running and sounding worse and losing power and voltage gauge dropping and going back to normal. Safety concern for myself and others on road due to this recall flash.
Unknown when driving vehicle will randomly and often lose power -- the radio and dash lights go out, the steering wheel locks up -- sometimes the vehicle will have to be restarted
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that they used the remote starter to start the vehicle from inside the house. After a few minutes, the contact noticed a little smoke coming from the rear sliding glass window. The contact walked out to the vehicle to investigate the origin of the smoke and noticed that the glass from the rear window was glowing a cherry red color. The contact immediately turned off the engine and exited the vehicle right before the rear window glass shattered. The dealer (elm chevrolet, 301 e church st, elmira, ny 14901) stated that the vehicle was not covered by a warranty. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure was due to wiring short circuit. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was 40,000.
Many occurrences of electrical failure - taken to dealershipin 2017 and 2019 with no fix but one related power steering decal done. Loss of steering, lights, nav, stabilitrak, airbag warning often but not always noted when braking or using turn signals. Frustrating that there are thousands of complaints and potential youtube fix yet all dealer have no fix? certainly a major safety issue that should have been solved based on the number of complaints i've read.
I used my remote start, from the key fob, while i went inside the store. I came out of the store and had heavy smoke coming from the rear windows and defroster area. It smelled of a car fire. I immediately got into the truck and turned it off. I noticed the smoke dissipated and i started the truck to get home. The defroster was left off and i then started to drive out of the parking lot. Not even 30seconds later the window that had smoke coming from shattered. It is in my line of sight.
Air conditioning not working. Blowing hot due to worn hole in hose (thousands of known issues all with exactly the same symptoms and fixes... E x a c t l y!!!!!!) called chev, the guy said nhtsa tells them what to pay for and what to recall so they're hands are clean of this issue. Pardon????? worn hole? check bad condenser? checkno bracket? checkdealership/manufacturer participation? no way in hell! this is absolutely terrible business and there's no way the attorney general, the better business bureau and anyone else i can call are not going to hear about this. Oh yeah, the a/c never gets used, otherwise i would've had it fixed 20k miles ago under warranty but i didn't know it wasn't working. There's residue on the hoses from the leak which the dealership should've caught but they didn't. Maybe i go that route?
Loss of power steering mostly at low speed. Truck loses power or shuts off completely. Also several times i have had no power upon start then after sitting for a few minutes it will be ok. Loss of power while driving when i switched to bright lights. Also drivers info center goes black
It began with the headlights/parking lights flickering for a few weeks.later the truck began to give error messages about stability control, trailer brake control, and others.finally it violently jerked the steering wheel out of my hands on numerous occasions (truck has electric power steering).this happened at approximately 45 mph in various turns but i am concerned it could happen at highway speeds which would cause a serious crash and/or death.i am afraid to drive this vehicle especially with my family members on board.
The forward passenger side door actuator went out causing my door to be unable to be locked or unlocked by key, or unlock switch on door. It's now costing me $215 to get fixed. And i've seen many other vehicles having this problem. It's unsafe it will not lock during driving and can't lock it in public areas.
During normal driving 'service stabilitrak' notification pops up and causes all of dash and radio to flicker. It goes away and flashes again consistently. Eventually dash and radio went dark as if vehicle was shut off. Driving on highway the ac was on. Was in stop and go traffic
Takada recall. While traveling approx 70 mph appling brakes orturn signal information screen momentarily flashes blank, enine hesitates and seat belt warning sounds
The truck shakes at speeds offrom 35 mph, then it stops and when driving on the highway at speeds between 60 and 70 on the thruway it shakes again. The vibration is transferred through the gas pedel and into the seats and console. Also when brakeing it shakes. Its been in for service several times for this since i bought it. Also the voltage meter drops and i lose dash board lights.this happens while the vehicle was in motion on both city and highway driving. I'm tired of loseing valuable days off to drive up to denooyer chevy in albany to have them look at this again. The truck travels straight and true but shakes at those speeds, sometime it makes a drowning sound as it happens.its in the front end part of the suspension i believe. The tires were all high speed balanced and air is perfect in all 4 tires. Has anyone experienced this?
While in motion, especially in slow turns, the vehicle completely shuts down. Power steering goes and battery completely drained. When problem is occurring dashboard lights are affected. Dashboard lights light up and go blank.truck will not start unless jumpstarted. This has happened multiple times since summer of 2019.contacted banks chevrolet and concord new hampshire and they said they are not aware of any known problems. Contacted banks chevrolet in concord new hampshire and they said they are not aware of any known problems, although recalls for this same issue are present in other 2015 chevrolet silverados.
Our 2015 silverado 1500 has stuttering/ hesitation when accelerating, when turning on to a street you can not get up to speed quick enough it acts like there is something hold it back. We have replaced the spark plug and wire and all the coil packs. The voltage meter on the truck keep fluctuating so we replaced the alternator and the battery and that did nothing and kept fluctuating so we got another alternator and another and another and another.. So 5 alternators later and still no fix. But the hard shifting is the main concern. Because when you are driving trying to get into another lane the truck with just start hesitating and jerking until it launches into gear. 1st gear going into 2nd gear the truck will shift extremely hard and 2nd going into 3rd feels like you are galloping until it finally engages. The computer has been replaced and reprogrammed with all updates by and ase certified mechanic. Also did a transmission fluid flush and changed. No service light. Just baffled with all these complaints about transmission why nothing is down. It is a serious safety issue.
Activated remote start on vehicle.as i got into vehicle, my passenger noticed a burning smell and then saw thick smoke coming from rear window.i turned off the rear defroster and the smoke started to dissipate.my rear window then shattered.gm recalled 159,000 vehicles in canada due to what seems like the same issue with rear defrosters.my truck was purchased in the united states.
Upon turning the vehicle on there were no alerts like seat belt warnings, door open, hands free calling, onstar. Also when shutting vehicle off no alarm to indicate keys are in the ignition. Cannot hear if blinker is on. Nothing comes through the radio.this happens on an intermittent basis. Approximately every several months. Sometimes it will start the sheets if i shut the vehicle off then start it back up. Today it didn't do that. At this time my truck has approximately 80,000 miles.also on occasion the service electric breaks have indicated an issue as well.
While parked over night in the garage the sabilitrak light was on and service trailer system. Truck wouldn't start so i jump stared he truck. That worked twice though out the day and on my last drive while i was reversing the steering wheel was pulled from my hand and the 'stabilitrak' light came on! finally while parked before my truck engine wouldn't turn over the 'stabilitrak' light came on again and 'service trailer system' i've never used my trailer system. My truck wouldn't even turn over 'crank'.i had to tow my truck home and i'm just happy that the steering wheel wasn't pulled from my hand with my two kids with me in the road!
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving 35 mph, the radio and instrument panel lights were clicking off and on, which caused the vehicle to stall after making a left turn.

The contact also mentioned that on another occasion, the vehicle stalled while depressing the brake pedal and using the turn signal. The vehicle was taken to local dealer mike reed chevrolet located at 1559 e oglethorpe hwy, hinesville, ga 31313, where the mechanic was unable to duplicate failure. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired as of yet. The manufacturer had been informed of failure and filed a case. The failure mileage was approximately 75,000
Wiring harness for vehicle is poorly design and is sitting next to hot engine block where the wires are melted and caused a short in the whole entire vehicle, all system is shut down when overheated, this means while traveling at any speed everything goes dead which is considered a highly unsafe situation.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 25 mph, the steering wheel jerked and the vehicle turned off. The vehicle was restarted after several attempts, but the power steering failed to operate and the power steering warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (star chevrolet, 1628 s azalea dr, wiggins, ms 39577, (678) 369-6037) for diagnostic testing and repairs. The dealer also informed the contact that there were no recalls in regards to the failure; therefore, the contact would be responsible for the repair fees. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 73,038.
I keep having a problem where i have no sound in my truck at all. No radio or blinker noise. I have tried to take out the fuse and replace it and that doesn't work. If i turn the truck on or open the door i already know if i'm going to have the problem. The open door chime doesn't come on. The next time i open the door it might work. I don't understand where or what the problem is but i know i'm not the only one having this problem.
I was in an accident driving slow. Couldn't control the steering. Would only go straight. Air bag did not engage and seat belt did not work. Lights go dim and flash. Radio display not working correct.but main concern is inside lights go dim or flash.on city streets driving slow.
The power door lock actuator quick working around 36k miles making it impossible to open the affected door(s) from the outside and can only be opened by pulling the inside door handle which is difficult with a crew cab. I fear that if a belted passenger who is unable to unbundled in a accident or fire may be subjected to danger. I have read of these lock actuators falling earlier the average and general motors will not cover the repair past the exact manufacturer warranty limit.
2015 chevrolet silverado 5.3l 4x4 (48,000 miles). While driving last night i was u-turning at a major intersection when the truck lost all power, then flashed "stabilitrak" on the dash, and jerked the steering wheel out of my hand. Should there have been someone coming the other direction there surly would have a major head on collision. I pulled into a parking lot after re-firing the truck and tried some low speed sharp turns and sure enough the same issue. Flickering power, "stabilitrak" flashing on dash, and steering wheel jerked out of my hand. When i say steering jerked its not as if i just lost power steering, the wheel will actually jerk as if its trying to get back to center on its own. I left the truck over night and went back this morning to have someone follow me home. This is a major safety issue. There is no issued recall for my vin. I've found hundreds of stories and videos on the internet very similar to mine for this same issue. There are some recalls for other model years that sound like they are aimed at the problem but not for my model/year and everyone i've found that has had the recalls for steering and voltage issues says that the problem continues. Its terrifying thinking that im driving a 6,000lbs mass that can shut off and steer itself out of no where. Ridiculous that this has not been resolved or even acknowledged by gm!
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving various speeds, the vehicle suddenly shut off while making a turn in either direction. The failure occurred on twelve separate occasions. The vehicle was taken to dave gill chevrolet (4700 e. Broad st, columbus, oh), but the cause of the failure was not determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vin was not available. The failure mileage was 32,000.
The wiring harness for the rear passenger tail lights has corroded. Point of corrosion is the "cup or socket" that the tail light bulb is inserted into. Corrosion failure occurred at 28 months of ownership of the new vehicle. Socket did not have any type of corrosion preventing dielectric grease present as i have typically seen in tail light connections.unfortunately, since the vehicle was at 40,000 miles it was considered out of warranty and all expense for repair of defective manufacturing. Dealership also recommended the replacement of a socket with field soldiering rather than replacement of the entire wire harness which seems like a solution to create more corrosion issues. Corrosion caused the loss of tail lights on the rear passenger side of the vehicle which could have resulted in an accident due to lack of warning/indication from vehicles behind.
The ignition lock bound and stuck in the start position twice. Other vehicles in the same year model had the same problem as per your campaign# 15v640000 or your recall #n182156820. Gm's recall is 15573. Gm informed me that my vehicle was not in the recall group even though i have the exact problem. The vehicle was parked
On several occasions the truck will completely shut off while in a turn. All dashboard information shuts down. On several occasions driving about 35-50 mph going straight and then turning on blinker attempting to make a lane change the truck cuts out and shuts off for a second and turns back on. The headlights flicker and using power windows sometimes causes the truck to shut off for a second and come back on. This happens in park, turning, or driving down the road. I have already had the vehicle in the shop and this is after the software update, and the vacuum pump for the brakes was replaced twice.
Radio and turn signal "clicking" sound will not work sometimes when truck is turned on. If i turn off vehicle and come back 5-10mins most of the time it will start working again. This has been going on for a couple of months and seems to be worst when it's cold outside.
All audio stops working.the radio is on and the digital info is changing with the station.but there is no audio..all the warning sounds and the directional sound are not present.a few times i was able to shut the truck off and restart it and that would fix the issue.. But now that doesn't even work.i do notice that it happens more often when the weather is very cold..
At low speeds of 15mph or less, when brakes are applied, the vehicles brake assist stops working and the electric to the car flashes off. If speeds are low enough and you apply brakes while turning right at a light or stop sign, the vehicle will shutoff and steering wheel locks. This is a huge safety issue and poor design.
Gm has recall 14315 for my year make and style of vehicle.they tell me that my vin is not listed for this recall.my vehicle has the problems listed in this recall.all sounds do not work including the seat beat reminder, the door open reminder and all vehicle sounds from the speakers.gm will not repair it as my vin does not come up in there system for this recall.how can my vin be included for this serious safety issue.
I was driving, i put my rear defrost on and i started smelling burning i looked in my rearview mirror and see my real window smoking.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at 40 mph, a grayish smoke began to enter the vehicle cab from the rear window defroster without warning. The contact immediately shut off the defroster and moments later, the rear passenger window shattered without warning. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and gave the contact a case number. The manufacturer then contacted him about ten days later and informed him that his vehicle was no longer under warranty; therefore they could not offer any assistance with the repair. The vehicle had yet to taken to a dealer or independent mechanic to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 63,840.
For months i have been experiencing small issues at first, turn signal quit making noise, and then the radio quit working, this issue would only be corrected by turning off the vehicle, and restarting it, now the problem has gotten worse, tpms lights up on the dashboard the stabillitrack icon appears, and vehicle appears to stall momentarily and the radio goes blank, the most dangerous part is the electric steering wheel locks up, i have read several complaints online about this issue, and find no solution has ever been recorded, so far i have experiment this issue at low speeds and it is a interment problem that randomly happens
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving various speeds, the vehicle lost power. When the vehicle was started, the warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that there was a communication error in the electrical system. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 23,000.
Loss of steering assist.when driving at low speeds and making turns, vehicle has a temporary loss of eps assist followed by a sudden return of eps assist.dealer states safety recall #18289 has been completed; however, the vehicle continues to exhibit the exact same failure which this recall is supposed to correct.
So due to known issues with the yolk on the differential, the lag in the transmission shift and engine communication leads to extreme vibration at highway speeds and clunking and jerking while driving around town. So when the transmission shifts there is a delay in the motor recognizing it so it revs up some so when the transmission finally finds the gear it causes it to kick. And since the yolk has play in it, it causes the differential to clunk as the rotation of the driveshaft catches up at a quicker rate. Which leads to more looseness in the yoke and creates a wobble in the driveshaft. And an unsettling sound while driving around.
I was driving my 2015 silverado 1500 when my daughter in the backseat noticed that's something smell like it was burning, she told me and within 10 seconds i could smell the same thing and it smelled like electrical was burning. I could see smoke coming from behind her headrest so i pulled off the road immediately and got her out of the back seat and could see it was coming from either the slide window or the defroster so i jumped in the front seat and seen the rear defroster was on and shut that off and almost immediately following me shutting that off it sounded like a gunshot went off in my back seat and the rear driver side window exploded the only thing holding it together was the factory window tint. There is all kind of glass shards in the backseat from when it shattered. I had to have my wife pick up my daughter because she is too young to sit in the front seat. So i have to put tape over the window to hold it together until the dealership contacts me back.
During slower driving and turning wheel, power steering hardens up and motor has shut down while in motion. When trying to turn wheel turning hard into parking or turning sharper turns while driving this occurs! very concerned for my safety and causing a crash. Busy street driving on highway and also in parking areas this has occurred
Driving at low speed lights flicker lose power steeringtruck stops running steering locks up
So many problems with it.chevy went from offering to lemon law it out to sitting back waiting on an intel to finish killing me.they sabotaged truck or its a horrible problem.air bags did not deploy at 45 mpg fron tend collission.i could have died.they dont care.1 year later, no one came to look at it.they delay me day ater day
I was on a city road driving at 45 mph about 5 minutes after i used the factory remote start. Smoke started pouring from behind the rear seat and then one of the back windows shattered. This is a widely reported issue and there should be a recall for it.
When i am turning at low speeds, usually below 10mph, power-steering assist stops working temporarily and then suddenly starts working again.
I estimate this has happened over 10 times.i lose all electrical power to the vehicle and the car shuts off, often this is preceded by loss of power steering and low speed.the last time this happened when pulling out into traffic; the steering kicked back, the truck lost all electrical power, dash went blank, radio dark, including loss of head lights, i will reiterate that this happened while pulling into traffic.this truck cost me over $40k new and i believe chevy is aware of the problem, then simply don't want to cover the cost of parts and labor to fix.the dealership told me they had no idea what the issue could be, then i found several gm documents online.it appears this is a known issue, and they even list 2015 silverado on documents.bulletin no.:18-na-161 (the issues in this match exactly what i've experienced) alsoreference number:n172085440please help me convince chevrolet to fix this issue or force them to do a recall.
This weekend my truck started acting weird.on saturday there is a very intermittent zap or click noise that would come through the speakers. Almost like there is a short somewhere.when this happens and i am turning the steering wheel tries to pull back midline for about a second or two then goes back to where it was previously turned to.when i started the truck up on sunday i had to re-enter the time in the radio but all stations were still programed into it.i noticed when the headlights are on and it makes that noise the headlights flicker a little bit.on the way into work this morning that noise was not there but during a turn on the interstate the steering wheel tried three or four times to return to midline during the turn. It happens so fast that is is finished just about the time you can react to it.
I brought my vehicle to the dealership that i bought my vehicle from after it showed what i believed to be signs of the electronic power steering (eps) recall affecting it. The dealership applied the fix that gm had and sent me on my way.the very next day i experienced what i believed to be the electronic power steering system acting up again. This time i was traveling at 55 m.p.h. On the highway beginning the interchange to another highway and could not turn the steering wheel for approximately 2 seconds. The loss of steering was almost as soon as i started the turn and almost caused me to go off of the highway. Then for the next 5-7 seconds i was able to manually turn the steeringwheel without power steering. All of a sudden the power steering turned back on and, because of how hard i was trying to turn the wheel, i almost ended up in the lane to my right where another vehicle was. I had no prior issues like this until the recall was worked at the dealership. Almost immediately after leaving the dealership the truck was acting weird, and at a stop the truck felt as if it was struggling to stay running. The dealership was contacted and agreed to have it towed back to them two days later. Now they are telling me it is due to bad battery cables and thatcaused power loss during the turn. They spent hours scanning the system to find that this actually happened, which they claim they could not find, but there was a warning light that showed on the dash notifying me that the power steering was out and to drive with care, so i do not understand how they did not find it during their scan. They then tell me there is a service bulletin, that came out a month after the eps recall did, and it will be an out of pocket expense. I cannot stop thinking that this issue is a direct result of the eps software fix and should be included to the recall to replace the battery cables.
The 2015 chevy silverado has a very common problem, which i am shocked has not been put under a nation wide recall. A manufacturing issue of placing the negative battery cable in the wrong spot, causes the dash, power steering, stability tracking and air conditioning to shut off completely. When braking, the dash shuts off and the steering wheel locks, which has sent me into oncoming traffic.my brother had the exact same year make and model of truck and had the same exact issue. When his needed to be fixed, he was told the same thing from the dealership. Ā€œthe negative battery cable should have never been in placed in that position, but relocating it will fix the problem. Only, after replacing the battery it burned out as well. Here is the text i received from the dealership today. Ā€œhey brian, this is matt @ ken garff chevrolet, we have tracked the problem down on the truck to the negative battery cable. It has high resistance causing the electrical issues. Estimate for repairs $492 before tax. Reply stop to optout.ā€¯ itā€™s a very good thing they diagnosed the issue, since i told them what it was when i walked in their shop. I told them verbatim what they sent back to me. There are literally thousands of complaints online with the same issue. How does a manufacturing fault, that is most definitely a safety issue, become the consumers expense. This problem is much worse, and more dangerous than the recalls that are currently on the vehicle. How many accidents and how much consumer money needs to be spent, before a recall is placed on such a common manufacturing issue. Please let me know what needs to be done to get this taken care of, so more people arenā€™t in danger, or screwed into paying to fix a blatant error by the manufacturer.

When driving on a city street at about approximately 30mph , all electrical systems suddenly died and vehicle shut down.coasted to a stop without power brakes or steering control, almost causing an accident. Turned off and on ignition and computer system had me "turn on and off driver window'.also reference a few other electrical systems errors that cleared after once again starting vehicle. During the resulting 20 minute drive home, electrical system showed a few errors, once when initiating a turn signal and headlights flickered but car did not suddenly die. Next day it is nowrunning okay so far.researching this sudden electrical and total system shutdown online i found numerous issues with 2014/2015 silverado models from others.discussed with local dealership service department and found they have seen other customers locally with this intermittent issue and have been unable to find or fix the problem.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. When the vehicle was started, the low battery warning indicator illuminated. The contact stated that the charging gauge suddenly dropped, indicating that the vehicle was recharging the battery while he was driving instead of staying centered they way it was designed. At times, the contact would have to jumpstart the vehicle due to the battery failure. The contact took the vehicle to dan vaden chevrolet savannah (located at 9393 abercorn st, savannah ga 31406, 912-629-0200) where it was determined that the battery needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure persisted. The contact took the vehicle to kerry chevrolet (located at 7500 alexandria pike,alexandria, ky 41001, 859-635-6400) where it was determined again that the battery needed to be replaced. The contact bought a different battery brand from auto zone and replaced the battery; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle had not been repaired. The contact stated that the vehicle had a total of three batteries replaced in approximately four years. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 42,000.
While driving slow and making a hard left turn everything flashes off 0n dash ,then on, on dash,but engine shuts off causing steering and braking safety concerns,this has happened three times in last two week took it to dealership they couldn't
My truck shakes frequently going down the road at certain speeds. I've had it for around 6 years now and i can't pinpoint exactly when it started. I've had the truck in for maintenance/service at the dealership as well as other auto shops trying to diagnose the problem. I've had new tries, new brakes, countless tire rotations, wheel balancing etc you name it. And the problem persists. Recently after hearing about the "chevy shake" i've come to realize that my problems are just like what others have too. Now my powertrain has given out. And my extended warranty has ended. I truly believe that the issues have caused, or are caused by this prevailing issue of a wobbling drive shaft. Every time i have had it in for repairs the issue still persists and i can't always get the time to go back and have it looked at it again. It is a safety issue above all else and i truly believe gm knows about it but does nothing. Even more to the point, i had a "transmission fluid flush" just under a month ago and now all of a sudden my truck doesn't shift like it should. They say it will cost over 5 thousand dollars to get repaired. There is something seriously wrong here. This is an ongoing issue, and again it is difficult to say when it started. But a vehicle going down the highway at speed limit and shaking is a safety concern.
I have about 85000 miles on my car, i was driving to work and the engine light came up. The code for the engine light came up as p06da which most likely indicates a problem with the engine oil control solenoid (based on most of the videos and reviews on the internet). Unfortunately, gm never made a recall about this!! this problem costs about 3k to fix at the dealer.
Whenever i drive with multiple passengers, the media system will start clicking like if someone is scrolling through options but i'm not touching any buttons. Then at random times it will start changing the display of my dash and my media screen. There are also times the touch screen will just not respond. This is a constent thing that happens.
Ac not cooling ac not cooling ac condenser ac condenser is leaking at seam.
Has happened multiple times the locks start locking and unlocking rappedley the steering gets hard and the truck dies losing all control of it
Touch screen does not respond and handsfree malfunctions. Gps map also does not respond. Radio switches stations on its own and car places phone calls on mute. All of this happens when the vehicle is in motion either in the city or on the highway. It is very distracting and dangerous. I have been working with chevrolet for over a year on this and they don't deem to be able to fix this issue. I have read many forums that show customers with similar computer issues.
Out of no where i get in my truck and start driving. I hear a hissing sound from the back window. All of a sudden it is smoking so i turn my truck off then back on hissing is gone. I have been keeping an eye on it to make sure it doesn't happen again. I was sitting in my driveway and truck was running. All of a sudden i hear this pop and i look back and right next to the part that was smoking the window completely shattered. .
I was driving down the highway on a typical winter day in michigan. The rear defroster was on to melt some snow/ice on the rear window. After being quiet/normal, suddenly a loud hissing/sizzling sound was coming from the rear window defroster, lasted less than a minute before i was smelling something burning. The defroster circuit then fried in a large puff of smoke with a substantial "pop" sound. After a brief delay of just a few seconds, the rear window glass exploded/shattered. This is after a known recall was issued by gm for this very issue. I had the issue addressed at my local chevrolet dealership in august. In their service report, it said "inspected rear sliding window terminals and covers for damage. Install revised terminal cover. Also install new design buss bar covers. Okno heat damage found." again, my problem occurred *after* my local chevrolet dealership allegedly addressed this known problem and already-issued recall. I have no way of knowing whether or not the repairs/inspection they claimed they did actually happened. If they did, clearly they did not remedy this serious problem. I am now trying to get into the dealership for them to replace the rear window. At minimum, they've said it could take two days to get the replacement window.
Doors lock and unlock while driving and also after truck is turned off and key removed from ignition ....problem has been occurring for some time now but is getting worse
Water filtration from the shark antenna and rear third light, with possible short on a dash board and instrumental panel (already occurredmore than once with no light on a instrumental panel and no function of the all gauges including speed gauge) the problem happened especially on rainy days on stationary vehicle and also in a driving conditions bolt city and highway time. The photo showing are only the recent but the problem happened several times before than now. This time was the worst ever

This included the indicator sound for when the vehicle was in reverse to warn of any possible collisions. The passenger side indicator sound if the seatbelt and door were ajar did not work as well. The indicator lights for antitheft protection and rollaway prevention also did not work. The dealer hutch chevrolet buick gmc1004 3rd st, paintsville, ky 41240 (606) 297-4066 said to make an appointment and pay a diagnostic fee before the repair fees. The vehicle was not covered by a recall. The manufacturer also said the vehicle was not covered by a recall and transferred the contact back to the dealer. The vehicle was unrepaired parked at the contact's home. The failure mileage was 65,000.

A/c condenser gave out causing window to fog/ same issue with all gm / tahoe / suburban / escalade .life safety issue visibility compromisedi have a 2015 chevy silverado with only 30k on it. This should be a mandatory recall.
While using a spare key to my 2015 silverado for the entire day, and driving over 70 miles, the "anti-theft" warning light suddenly came on.i continued to drive approx. 10 miles with the light on and while turning off a busy road, across on-coming traffic, the truck completely shut off.no steering, no forward movement, nothing.it virtually went dead!i was able to put the truck in park and try to start it again (thank goodness no traffic coming through at the time).after several attempts it started again and i began to drive around the corner to my home, where it completely shut off again, in front of my driveway.had it towed, as i was nervous about driving it again.the chevy dealership service department was unable to conclude what happened.they testedit with the spare key, and still no sign of any trouble.i am reluctant to drive this truck.
The steering wheel gets hard to turn at low speeds like it's going out.when i stop and turn the wheel the headlights dim.
Often, when making low speed turns the entire engine and electrical system shuts off.there is no power steering when this happens and it's difficult and dangerous to try to coast to a safe spot to try to restart the vehicle.generally, it starts back up again within a few minutes.in the three years that we've owned the vehicle, it has been to two different chevy dealerships more than once and both dealerships say there's no problem.it's frustrating that it seems to be a common issue yet there's no answer to the problem and no recall.
Truck seems to lose power when slowing down. Steering wheel locks up. Dash display go dark and comes back. Stability track warning. Airbag warning. Headlights flicker. Ac and fan go out. Happens when making turns at a slow speed. And when hitting the brake at any speed.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving at low speeds and making a left turn, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the electrical harness was faulty and needed replacement. The vehicle was repaired. Approximately one month later, the check engine warning indicator illuminated and the vehicle was taken back to the dealer. The diagnosis and repairs were unknown. The failure recurred the next month and the vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a fuel sensor failure. The vehicle was not repaired again. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 15,000.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that the check engine warning indicator had been illuminated for approximately one month. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (john jones chevrolet in corydon, indiana) where it was diagnosed that a rodent damaged the wires above the fuel tank, which needed replacement. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 27,000.
The system that failed is the speedometer display and radio display while driving.this can be dangerous as i do not know the speed i am driving.this can also be dangerous as the display includes the screen for the backup camera that turns off without notice while backing up.the problem has happened many times in my 2015 chevrolet silverado.i have a 2017 chevrolet silverado for a company vehicle and the issue occurs in it, as well.i notified the gm dealership where both vehicles were purchased and they said the screen could be replaced but would be very expensive.no warning lamps or messages occurred.the screen jumps around a lot and occurs at various times (morning, afternoon, warm or cold weather, etc.).
The contact owns a 2016 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving approximately 45 mph and attempting to merge to the right lane, the contact crashed into the rear of another vehicle.

Rear power locking actuator fails to operate causing automatic lock on door to become able to open with child safety lock engaged. Vehicle only has 40000 miles currently. Numerous complaints have been about rear power lock actuators failing on 2014 - 2018 chevrolet silverado.
The stabilitrak notification appears and the steering wheel moves on it's own to the straight position. It has happened while backing up more than once. Also, the stereo screen has blacked out and the vehicles power cut out on my wife while she was driving on the interstate.
Headlights flickering when on. While in motion my stabilitrack light illuminates along with the seatbelt light. When using the turn signal the radio display goes out for about a second and turns back on. When braking the radio display goes off for a second.

My truck was recalled i received a call from my dealer about the recall. I took my truck to decatur james woods chevrolet which performed a recall on the eps module for a steering recall. Note prior to me taking my vehicle in i had no problems or issues. I take my truck in for documented oil changes and scheduled maintenance. Once they did the recall flash update reprogramming i picked up my truck and on the way home the dash lights blinked off the stabilitrac error and tow haul error both came up. I called the service dept immediately on the way using hands free system and the service advisor told me the recall couldn't cause that. On the road to my house the steering wheel jerked out of my hands light sprain to my wrist and almost took me off the road as the brakes also failed to work very well. The truck died to a stop. When i restarted it showed no errors and all worked again. The next morning when started it displayed a calibration error and had me open and close my driver window. When driving to my dealership jerry's chevy it blinked the dash again when i used my blinker to change lanes. The power and rpm where all over the place and running very rough. When i got to jerry's they basically told me they couldn't touch it and take the liability and to take it back to decatur they had messed something up. Next morning to to local mechanic we have used they put computer diagnostic on it and showed all kinds of errors as we test drove while hooked up. He said the recall program has evidently caused communication issues to other modules and can tear up the truck. I took it back to decatur they said they couldn't get to it and to come back the next day. I dropped it off truck still having issues and running and sounding worse and losing power and voltage gauge dropping and going back to normal. Safety concern for myself and others on road due to this recall flash.
I was in an accident driving slow. Couldn't control the steering. Would only go straight. Air bag did not engage and seat belt did not work. Lights go dim and flash. Radio display not working correct.but main concern is inside lights go dim or flash.on city streets driving slow.
When driving on a city street at about approximately 30mph , all electrical systems suddenly died and vehicle shut down.coasted to a stop without power brakes or steering control, almost causing an accident. Turned off and on ignition and computer system had me "turn on and off driver window'.also reference a few other electrical systems errors that cleared after once again starting vehicle. During the resulting 20 minute drive home, electrical system showed a few errors, once when initiating a turn signal and headlights flickered but car did not suddenly die. Next day it is nowrunning okay so far.researching this sudden electrical and total system shutdown online i found numerous issues with 2014/2015 silverado models from others.discussed with local dealership service department and found they have seen other customers locally with this intermittent issue and have been unable to find or fix the problem.
Loss of power steering mostly at low speed. Truck loses power or shuts off completely. Also several times i have had no power upon start then after sitting for a few minutes it will be ok. Loss of power while driving when i switched to bright lights. Also drivers info center goes black
2015 chevrolet silverado 5.3l 4x4 (48,000 miles). While driving last night i was u-turning at a major intersection when the truck lost all power, then flashed "stabilitrak" on the dash, and jerked the steering wheel out of my hand. Should there have been someone coming the other direction there surly would have a major head on collision. I pulled into a parking lot after re-firing the truck and tried some low speed sharp turns and sure enough the same issue. Flickering power, "stabilitrak" flashing on dash, and steering wheel jerked out of my hand. When i say steering jerked its not as if i just lost power steering, the wheel will actually jerk as if its trying to get back to center on its own. I left the truck over night and went back this morning to have someone follow me home. This is a major safety issue. There is no issued recall for my vin. I've found hundreds of stories and videos on the internet very similar to mine for this same issue. There are some recalls for other model years that sound like they are aimed at the problem but not for my model/year and everyone i've found that has had the recalls for steering and voltage issues says that the problem continues. Its terrifying thinking that im driving a 6,000lbs mass that can shut off and steer itself out of no where. Ridiculous that this has not been resolved or even acknowledged by gm!
While driving, the radio and all other electric components will go dark or quit working altogether, including the ac blower, compressor, headlights, etc.sometime i get the stabilitrack alert with 3 or 4 tones, which resets automatically.when waiting in a drive through line today, when i depress the brake pedal, it happens again.while waiting in line, i sometimes put the transmission in park.when i depress the brake, and move the transmission control into drive, it happens, and more frequently, the engine shuts off.when turning the wheel, the power steering seems to go out, making it almost impossible to turn the vehicle, all the while the stabilitrack alarm goes off, the headlights go dark, the ac shuts down, the dash display goes dark, the door locks cycle up and down, and the engine shuts down.today, it almost caused me not to negotiate turning from a major road into a parking lot.i lost all power to the steering, the engine shut down, and my brakes were non-existent.after reading other complaints on here, i decided i needed to tell my story.i received the recall notices, and have not ventured to the dealership for repairs, fearing exposure to the covid-19 virus.after reading everyone else's problems, and hearing that even the recall repairs do not fix the problem, i cannot help but wonder if there is more going on here than gm is willing to admit.i will not let my wife drive this vehicle, because if it happens to her, there is no way she can maneuver a stalled vehicle with no power steering and no brakes.so it looks i have the same story as others, and no real solution to my problem that the dealerships are willing to fix, or even admitting that there is a problem.
I was at a stop sign trying to make a left hand turn and the truck steering locked up and then it happened again in a drive thru fast food place. I'm scared it's going to cause me to wreck while driving. I have no control of the truck when it happens and my lights, radio, and door locks go out then come back on.

Takada recall. While traveling approx 70 mph appling brakes orturn signal information screen momentarily flashes blank, enine hesitates and seat belt warning sounds
I was driving and was making a left hand turn when my steering locked up and straightened out my wheels witch made my truck drive forward for a second and then it stopped and allowed me to continue my turn. A few days after this happened i was driving over a bumpy road and it did it again and a bell started ringing and a power steering message came on my dash and it persisted for about 10 minutes and i haven't drove my truck since
My 2015 chevrolet silverado crewcab ldhas a very dangerous steering issue. The problem is the steering system fully gives out making it impossible to turn the wheel and sometimes the wheels jerks back approximately 1/4 turn. Gm has recalled trucks for this issue on all silverado models 2014/15 except the 2015 crew cab . This is a very dangerous issue . The truck only has 36,251 miles and is taken care of to the fullest per manufacturers guidelines . This is a very dangerous issue and it seems that gm has admitted it and recalled many vehicles outside the trucks as well for the same problem, hopefully they will do the right thing and make a recall for all affected models before someone gets seriously hurt.
2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. Consumer writes in regards to power steering. *ldthe consumer stated abs system and stabilitrak light illuminated. The consumer was made aware of a recall concerning the steering failure after having the vehicle repaired. The consumer requested to be reimbursed for the repairs.
I'm having issues with my chevy silverado dying out while driving when i'm making turns that will cause the truck to have error messages popping up with regards to the stable trac sensor, the airbag light coming on, the radio going in and out, and the ac going out/coming back on. While backing up the truck is locking up on me, and the steering wheel is jerking out of my hands, which will dye out as well. When i go to start it back up the truck then gives me an error message of roll down the drivers side window that you have to do in order to clear it out. I've currently had this at the chevy dealership the past 6 months without them being able to fix this numerous times.
While parked over night in the garage the sabilitrak light was on and service trailer system. Truck wouldn't start so i jump stared he truck. That worked twice though out the day and on my last drive while i was reversing the steering wheel was pulled from my hand and the 'stabilitrak' light came on! finally while parked before my truck engine wouldn't turn over the 'stabilitrak' light came on again and 'service trailer system' i've never used my trailer system. My truck wouldn't even turn over 'crank'.i had to tow my truck home and i'm just happy that the steering wheel wasn't pulled from my hand with my two kids with me in the road!

During normal driving 'service stabilitrak' notification pops up and causes all of dash and radio to flicker. It goes away and flashes again consistently. Eventually dash and radio went dark as if vehicle was shut off. Driving on highway the ac was on. Was in stop and go traffic
My silverado has already had the software upgrade related to the previous vacuum pump/brake recall (n192268490). It initially helped, but now the brake pedal is again extremely hard to press at slow speeds, such as in traffic. You need to almost stand on it to stop. It appears that the deterioration is back where it was before the software "fix." i will be taking to the dealership this week and requesting a replacement of the vacuum pump under warranty or recall. I am beyond regular powertrain warranty at this point, but brakes seem like they should work past 80k.

Takata recall-i was in a wreck 12-24-2017 and i was hit from behind. The bed of my truck was hit so hard by a distracted driver while i was at a stop light, that it twisted up and hit the cab of the truck. My airbags never deployed and my seatbelt never locked up. I am severely injured and am still seeking treatment for my injuries. It was over $11,000 in damages. The truck now down shifts and it sounds likie the bottom is dropping out. It also shakes when at highway speed.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving approximately 45 mph, the check engine indicator illuminated. The vehicle started to decelerate when depressing the accelerator pedal. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 33,000.
It had a problem with the motor, at 50000 we bought it brand new.dealer said it was a problem with some gaskets inside motor.
With only 79,600 miles the engine began misfiring.we took it to 2 independent mechanics and were told the lifters needed to be replaced causing $5600 in repairs.we were followed all the recommended oil changes and maintenance.after investigating it we discovered this engine failure was known to gmc as it has effectedseveral other gmc truck engines manufactured between 2011 and 2014.
So due to known issues with the yolk on the differential, the lag in the transmission shift and engine communication leads to extreme vibration at highway speeds and clunking and jerking while driving around town. So when the transmission shifts there is a delay in the motor recognizing it so it revs up some so when the transmission finally finds the gear it causes it to kick. And since the yolk has play in it, it causes the differential to clunk as the rotation of the driveshaft catches up at a quicker rate. Which leads to more looseness in the yoke and creates a wobble in the driveshaft. And an unsettling sound while driving around.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 10 mph, the steering seized and the vehicle stalled while turning into a neighborhood. Sellers buick gmc (38000 grand river ave, farmington hills, mi 48335, (248) 579-8383) was contacted and stated that there were no recalls. The contact scheduled an appointment with the dealer to see if the vehicle could be repaired under an extended warranty. The manufacturer was not notified. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 64,000.
The cabin of the vehicle fills with carbon monoxide. This is known because a 4 gas monitor in the vehicle read carbon monoxide levels in excess of 400 ppm. The source of the leak after being taken to the dealership was found to be a broken bolt in the exhaust manifold. The parts only estimate was $1,700 with approximately 9 labor hours.online research found numerous complaints. Failure to correct the condition may lead to drivers fainting while driving and cause brain injury to a child or infant.a leak in the exhaust before reaching the catalytic converters also results in possibly excessive untreated emissions.the exhaust leak may or may not pose a fire hazard.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving 35 mph, the check engine warning light illuminated.

The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 56,000.
I was on a family trip with my wife and kids and the engine temperature raised and system said to idle engine until it cooled down. I was able to cool the engine down and get the truck home.the chevrolet dealer diagnosed a coolant leak at the radiator. Service bulletin pi1513f refers to this as being caused by a faulty thermostat which results in fractures in the radiator."this condition may be the result of excessive thermocycles within the cooling system caused by excessive cycling of the thermostat. These excessive thermocycles within the coolant system may cause the tubes to fatigue, crack andleak at the radiator headers. To correct this condition, a new thermostat has been designed that eliminates the thermostats excessive cycling."the quoted cost to replace the radiator and thermostat at the dealer is $1800gm has apparently extended the warranty to 100000 miles under a special coverage adjustment on the 2014 models, but not the other affected model years.

I have about 85000 miles on my car, i was driving to work and the engine light came up. The code for the engine light came up as p06da which most likely indicates a problem with the engine oil control solenoid (based on most of the videos and reviews on the internet). Unfortunately, gm never made a recall about this!! this problem costs about 3k to fix at the dealer.
My truck is 3 years old i was driving my vehicle in florida and my air conditioner went out. The dealership stated the part was made poorly and my children that are 2 and 6 months had to drive in the heat with no air due to it going out and them not being able to fix in 48 hours.
Catalytic converter failed with less than 80,000 miles. The truck was taken to dealership, denooyer chevrolet, from which it had been bought new and by which it had always been serviced to remedy the check engine light prior to 80,000 miles with authorization to perform any diagnostic and remediation covered under warranty. Dealer did not make repair and advised it would cost me hundreds of dollars to even find out what was wrong. I now have taken the truck to a separate shop for diagnosis and was told a catalytic converter has gone bad. However,i am now slightly at 89,000 miles. Dealer is saying warranty on catalytic converts expired at 80,000 miles.front brake rotors warped within the first year of ownership.a/c cooling coil cracked under 80,000 miles as well due to a faulty part, and apparently that warranty expired at 30,000 miles.
Radiator is cracked. Same problem and same model radiator as is in the 2014 model of same vehicle. There is a recall for the same problem in a 2014 model but not 2015, like my vehicle.

Engine power reduced error pops up and and basically kills any ability to accelerate. This has happened multiple times including twice at interstate speed and few times under 45mph. If this were to happen while crossing an intersection, railroad, etc., the vehicle would be a sitting duck.
The weld on the air conditioning condeser has broken on the drivers side. This is causing the freon to leak out of the vehicle. This causes extremely high temperatures in the vehicle, and also causes the windows to fog up.
A/c condensor leaks and a/c stops working this happens just after the manufacture warranty expires my truck ac stop working at 37,688
The contact owns a 2015 silverado 1500. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, there was an engine misfire prior to the vehicle stalling without warning. The failure had recurred on several occasions. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer mclarty danial chevrolet (1159 n 45th st, springdale, ar 72762) and diagnosed that the engine valve lifters and fuel management systems were defective. The contact indicated that two valve lifters were replaced by the dealer. The failure continued after the vehicle was serviced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vin was not available. The failure mileage was 8,400.
This is a follow up from complaint #11228752 regarding the ac issues on chevy &gmc pickups from 2014 thru 2017 year models. From research i did 98% of the failures was the condenser which also includes the transmission oil cooler. My condenser failed on the drivers side first 3 tubes below the transmission oil cooler as did my friends 2016 sierra and another friend's 2016 texas edition sierra. Same failure same location and between 60 & 75k. Repaired mine myself & my warranty paid me back for new condenser ($219) but not the freon or my labor. There's most definitely an issue on this part and saw no visible difference in the old/ new piece other than a 6'x 6' square of aluminum type flex pad in the upper left corner on driver's side. Similar to the 2018 models not affected by this problem.
Air condition coil leak which is a common problem but no recall on silverado, but on tahoe.this is the same part and same issue, so why is there not a recall on the silverado?i would like credit for the $1300 replacement cost i paid.
Was driving on freeway,was changing lanes so i stepped on the gas to switch lanes and then check engine started flashing and stabilitrak active light came on. Slowed down and felt the truck with some unusual shaking, when i got off the freeway and into the street as soon as i stopped it felt like the engine wanted to shut off but it did not,truck was shaking at every stop i made. Check engine light is still on and stabilitrak active light on
Transmission experiences a shudder that cycles every 3 seconds. The torque converter had been replaced but after 45000 miles it has returned. Dealer has recommended a new type of transmission fluid replacement.also had a afm lifter that collapsed and was replaced.
Reporting that gm is aware of leaking in the radiator, transmission lines and oil coolant lines but no recall is listed.i am now having issues with all three and having to replace them.
While slowing down to make a turn, usually always using turn signal, my truck will completely shut down in the middle of the intersection with no warning. The engine shuts down and all electrical is lost. Luckily i haven't been hit by another vehicle while trying to restart my truck in the middle of the intersection had to jump out carso i wasn't in side if hit finally cars stop honkingi jumped back in and started up again i was scared had my children with me
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While the vehicle was at jim norton chevrolet (3131 n aspen avenue, broken arrow, oklahoma, 918-258-8000) for a routine oil change, the contact was advised by the mechanic that the condenser blew out and the radiator was fractured. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 52,000.
Afm activated ,lifter failure occurred. Engine cel blinks erratic engine behavior sudden loss of power and braking. Transmission starts shifting in and out of gears high low, severebucking, high engine revving, cylinder misfire. Hard to stop very slow acceleration due to transmission in wrong gear and loss of power due to collapsed lifter. This is a major problem that gm is well aware ofmy 2007 monte carlo had same issue 8 years later the problem still exists. The vehicle is still under warranty and im sure they will cover the lifter all lifters should be replaced. And afm should be disabled.
Often, when making low speed turns the entire engine and electrical system shuts off.there is no power steering when this happens and it's difficult and dangerous to try to coast to a safe spot to try to restart the vehicle.generally, it starts back up again within a few minutes.in the three years that we've owned the vehicle, it has been to two different chevy dealerships more than once and both dealerships say there's no problem.it's frustrating that it seems to be a common issue yet there's no answer to the problem and no recall.
Air bag deployment
Transmission problems. When reversing up a driveway the truck will stall as the gas is pressed it will rev up but not go anywhere, then jump into reverse as if the petal was floored. Also some times when entering the highway the transmission doesn't shift into the correct gears also jumping into gear which could cause accidents.

My truck had an afm collapsed lifter failure.it occurred under a hard acceleration event to change lanes.the dealer replaced the lifter, returning the vehicle to me.i got down the road, tested it under hard acceleration and it happened again!this time there was a lot of internal engine noise, really loud.i asked the dealer if they ntested it under a hard acceleration; they did not.they replaced the #6 piston and the valves associated with the #6 piston.all work performed was done on #6, even the initial collapsed lifter.i picked it up again and again a hard acceleration produced misfires!i had it towed it back to the dealer and asked them if they had tested it with hard acceleration.the response was @ 3300 rpm.i told the service writer that, if you do not test it under hard acceleration you will not even have it misfire!he redid the test and voila, he can see it now!technical resources told them to replace vlom, or "valve lifter oil manifold".i got it back and it does work, more or less.a hard acceleration will produce uneven acceleration but without the previous issues.i am working for now.i conducted some further research which i am probe to do and found an acdelco youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkly7xmmsos&feature=youtu.be&fbclid=iwar2zvzpvj6z6e3seljzgvxzeru8ptllkgpkqtfxmrsns7oqencolhrrgi_i.this video states that if you have an afm levent that involves a collapsed lifter you must replace a plethora of parts.that was not done.i have changed my oil on a more frequent basis than gm requires and i use amsoil signature series10w20, the best you can buy!i also use their ea0 filters which state you can go up to 25k miles or 1 year between changes!i typically do 10k miles as a high point.i have swicthed preferred dealers to get a different technical response...help!
Service# pip4112q2015 chevrolet silverado.10,000 miles.during acceleration at low speeds while turning or changing lanes vehicle hesitates and sag. Result of torque management. Safety concern with turning into traffic.manufacturerstates working as designed and failing to respond with repair/recall.
For months i have been experiencing small issues at first, turn signal quit making noise, and then the radio quit working, this issue would only be corrected by turning off the vehicle, and restarting it, now the problem has gotten worse, tpms lights up on the dashboard the stabillitrack icon appears, and vehicle appears to stall momentarily and the radio goes blank, the most dangerous part is the electric steering wheel locks up, i have read several complaints online about this issue, and find no solution has ever been recorded, so far i have experiment this issue at low speeds and it is a interment problem that randomly happens
Air conditoner isnt working there is many complaits for cracked lines and faulty brackets
My truck has a stuck lifter
My radiator is leaking with only 48000 miles on it. There has been a recall on the model years prior to and after mine, for the same problem.

The engine has a ticking noise like a lifter out of adjustment. I'm told this is normal its a ticking fuel pump for the fuel injectors. I think gm is better than that and can figure out how to quite it down. If there engineers can't figure it gm should consider finding some that can! the next time i buy a gm product it will need to be quite if not i'll brake a family tradition for 80 years and buy another brand.

They ask to to take it to the dealership where i purchase my new truck at the time that i bought it and to explain to them that the engine was bad and they need it to check the problem because their is a tbs in this particular engine and it could be one of the defective engines that were made dtc p050d and p0300 are the codes.

Poor headlights, won't drive the truck at night because of the poor illumination
The low beam lighting on the chevrolet 1500 high country projector style headlamps is very poor.low light output and what light there is in very narrowly focused in front of the truck.little or no lighting to the sideswhich makes it very difficult to see when making a turn.
My chevrolet silverado has terrible headlights. They are not bright enough and do not light the road properly. If the low beams are adjusted higher the high beams no longer illuminate the road. The high and low beams are in a one piece assembly and cannot be adjusted independently. I live in a rural area with a high deer population and require good headlights. In my opinion the highs and lows should be independent and have much brighter bulbs.
It began with the headlights/parking lights flickering for a few weeks.later the truck began to give error messages about stability control, trailer brake control, and others.finally it violently jerked the steering wheel out of my hands on numerous occasions (truck has electric power steering).this happened at approximately 45 mph in various turns but i am concerned it could happen at highway speeds which would cause a serious crash and/or death.i am afraid to drive this vehicle especially with my family members on board.
Truck seems to lose power when slowing down. Steering wheel locks up. Dash display go dark and comes back. Stability track warning. Airbag warning. Headlights flicker. Ac and fan go out. Happens when making turns at a slow speed. And when hitting the brake at any speed.
Driving at low speed lights flicker lose power steeringtruck stops running steering locks up

The third brake light on my 2015 1500 silverado leaked into my headliner. Now there is a brown line all the way across my headliner above the rear window. Even the service guy at chevy said it wouldn't leank anymore. He has had quite a few trucks come through with this issue. The fix was $153.00. How will i know if mold forms due to this? my truck was sitting in my driveway during the rain.
Radio and turn signal "clicking" sound will not work sometimes when truck is turned on. If i turn off vehicle and come back 5-10mins most of the time it will start working again. This has been going on for a couple of months and seems to be worst when it's cold outside.
One morning when i was driving my 2015 chevy silverado, i noticed a message on the dash board screen which read "right rear tail light signal failure. I went to the nearest auto parts store and purchased replacement bulbs and noticed that the bulbs weren't the problem. I also checked the fuses and did not find any blown fuses which again wasn't the problem. However the right rear tail light will turn on if the lights are on but will not blink when the signal light is on or if the brakes are engaged. Later that night i realized that none of the interior lights worked either; weather the light is in the door position or the on position. I'm not really sure what the problem is but with this truck being so new with less than 45000 miles, these problems shouldn't be happening.
I was at a stop sign trying to make a left hand turn and the truck steering locked up and then it happened again in a drive thru fast food place. I'm scared it's going to cause me to wreck while driving. I have no control of the truck when it happens and my lights, radio, and door locks go out then come back on.
I noticed a water leak in the head liner by the rear passenger seat. I had it inspected and i was told that there have been reports of water leaks coming through the third brake light above the back window. We tried fixing it using a new gasket, silicone, and even a new light with new seals and nothing has fixed the issue.
Continuous headlight burout. New lights last approx 2 months. Led, halogen or incandescent.
Water filtration from the shark antenna and rear third light, with possible short on a dash board and instrumental panel (already occurredmore than once with no light on a instrumental panel and no function of the all gauges including speed gauge) the problem happened especially on rainy days on stationary vehicle and also in a driving conditions bolt city and highway time. The photo showing are only the recent but the problem happened several times before than now. This time was the worst ever
My head lights, both hi and low are to deem to drive safely at night,wheather i am on the interstate or in the country side.
Unknown when driving vehicle will randomly and often lose power -- the radio and dash lights go out, the steering wheel locks up -- sometimes the vehicle will have to be restarted
Headlights flickering when on. While in motion my stabilitrack light illuminates along with the seatbelt light. When using the turn signal the radio display goes out for about a second and turns back on. When braking the radio display goes off for a second. I get a low battery signal maybe 2 or 3 times a week, i drive my truck daily. It has 76k miles. I lose power steering after about 150 mile drive. Its been happening for about 3-4 months. 4/22/2019 was the worst. All of it happened yesterday on a 175 mile drive

Front headlight assemblies cracking only on the daytime running lights not on the high beam a known issue that gm is ignoring and its dealerships other owners are complaining about has greatly impacted me driving my truck at night like i said gm knows about the defect in their headlight assemblies as i was told from the gm mechanic and service writer and gm owners are complaining about it all over the inter net starts a little bit over time until its very noticable starts spider wed cracks
I was in an accident driving slow. Couldn't control the steering. Would only go straight. Air bag did not engage and seat belt did not work. Lights go dim and flash. Radio display not working correct.but main concern is inside lights go dim or flash.on city streets driving slow.
2015 chevrolet silverado high country low beam headlamp performance is completely unacceptable.they are a projector style headlamp configuration which emits a very focused beam of light that is so narrow from side to side that when stopped at a stop sign you have extremely limited peripheral vision.the beam of light is far enough ahead of the truck and has such a sharp cutoff line, you cannot see if there is anybody standing on the sidewalk waiting to cross.it's also very difficult to see where you can turn from street to street because there again is such a limited field of light projected.overall the headlamps are very dim.high beam performance is acceptable because both the low and high beams lamps are on at the same time.the high beam lamp is a complex reflector configuration that has been around for decades and works well.it's unfortunate that high beams are used very little because of the other cars and trucks on the road.it's a shame that a pickup with a list price of over $50,000 has such poor headlamps.

When driving truck on a busy road the warning sign of (service stabilitrak) pops up on dashboard and lights would flicker turning on and off as the truck would also seem to turn off and quickly back on regaining electric power. When reversing it started locking the steering wheel and the (service stabilitrak) warning sign would pop up. Truck was taken to dealership twice for recalls and they said problem was corrected and now it's there for the third time as we speak. When i parked in my driveway i was able to record the incident and video was sent to dealership mechanic. Last sunday as i headed out to buy dinner, my vehicle seemed to be running fine.

It would not turn, it would not do any changes. My truck ended up bumping into a sidewalk, i was terrified as i almost lost my life. Shaking in fear i tried to restart my truck and it did turn on. I went inside the shopping center parking lot, parked and called aaa so my vehicle could be towed to our nearest dealership. We had an appointment at the dealership for tuesday due to negative reviews and they were going to look at ourvehicle again. However, i never expected that i would almost loose my life.

I will not be driving this vehicle unless i have been given proof that they fixed the issue. I have documentation for proof.
When placing the truck in reverse or drive the transmission does not immediately engage.i purchased this truck new and have had two replacement transmissions for this and other issues.dealer service department said that general motors calls this delayed engagement.dealer also stated that there is a bulletin stating they will no longer replace transmissions for delayed engagement.this is unsafe when the vehicle is placed in gear and the accelerator is pressed to get the vehicle to move and it does not move for several seconds and the accelerator is pressed harder to get the vehicle to move but suddenly the vehicle transmission will engage and the vehicle will lunge and unexpected distance. This situation occurs more often when the truck is sitting overnight but can happen other times also.i am familiar with the situation and usually remember to not accelerate and wait an extended time for engagement.

My silverado has developed a vibration around 4-5000 miles from new. The vibration starts around 60mph and increases in intensity up to and beyond 80mph, the legal speed limit in texas. The vibration can be felt throughout the cabin in the seats, center console, steering wheel, doors and gas pedal. On my last 3+ hour drive i had to stop midway because the vibrations gave me a headache. That's never happened in any other vehicle ever. After 3 visits to the dealer and multiple road force balance and tire replacements later the dealer states the truck is operating normal and is in spec. This is unacceptable for a brand new vehicle and i'm working on taking it to the next level with gm to deal with the problem.
So due to known issues with the yolk on the differential, the lag in the transmission shift and engine communication leads to extreme vibration at highway speeds and clunking and jerking while driving around town. So when the transmission shifts there is a delay in the motor recognizing it so it revs up some so when the transmission finally finds the gear it causes it to kick. And since the yolk has play in it, it causes the differential to clunk as the rotation of the driveshaft catches up at a quicker rate. Which leads to more looseness in the yoke and creates a wobble in the driveshaft. And an unsettling sound while driving around.
Transmission shifting rough ,sometimes when shifting into reverse it bangs loud ,thinking the drive shaft is going to fall out, when driving the shifting of the transmission jerks nothing smooth about it shifting

The correction was to reprogram and set-up the transfer case module which was not covered by chevrolet even after the servicing dealer asked them for assistance. Since there was an available fix offered by gm with a software update, software programs do not change without intervention and the condition results in drive-ability concerns, i believe these vehicles should be recalled to pro-actively prevent the issue experienced and not wait until the consumer has an issue and then have the customer pay for the repair.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 30 mph, the vehicle downshifted uncontrollably without warning. Also, while in the park position, the vehicle suddenly lunged forward and had to be restarted. The contact stated that the transmission independently engaged into first gear without warning and caused the vehicle to shift forward on more than one occasion. The vehicle received an unknown repair, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 14,000. ....updated 0711/16
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving approximately 25-35 mph with the transmission in third gear, the vehicle decelerated independently. The contact stated that the vehicle shifted into neutral independently while the rpms revved to 4,000. The contact stated that the vehicle shifted independently back in gear and he was able to briefly drive the vehicle before the failure recurred. Lindsay chevrolet (located at 15605 jefferson davis highway, woodbridge, va 22191, 703-832-4837) was called and informed of the failure. The contact was also informed by the dealer that the failure was possibly due to the failure listed in nhtsa campaign number: 14v374000 (power train); however, the vehicle had already received the one time free repair. The contact was referred to nhtsa for assistance. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 1150,000.
When shifting into gear transmission makes load noise.
When i purchased this vehicle i went to the dealership to complain about the transmission. When applying the gas, the car hesitated. I was told the car was "learning" and this was part of the computer system. Now that the warranty is off, it now needs a new transmission.
Often, when making low speed turns the entire engine and electrical system shuts off.there is no power steering when this happens and it's difficult and dangerous to try to coast to a safe spot to try to restart the vehicle.generally, it starts back up again within a few minutes.in the three years that we've owned the vehicle, it has been to two different chevy dealerships more than once and both dealerships say there's no problem.it's frustrating that it seems to be a common issue yet there's no answer to the problem and no recall.
Purchased new 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 in january of 2016. Experienced a vibration at all speeds from the very beginning of purchase. Vibration gets worse at higher speeds. Vehicle came with steel wheels from the factory. Vibration can be felt in the seat and seen in the center console.vibration is coming from rear of vehicle.replaced wheels and tires with aftermarkets. The aftermarkets were bigger and heavier and made vibration extremely worse. After assuring that i wasn't dealing with a problem with the new wheels and tires, i put the factories back on and took the vehicle to dealership and reported the problem. The vehicle was in the shop for 3 1/2 months. The vehicle failed pico scope tests. They put several new tires on the vehicle, changed both rear axles, and changed ring and pinion in rear end. These steps helped reduce the vibration, but did not totally resolve the issue. They then decided to put aluminum wheels on the truck, which helped reduce the vibration down to barely noticeable. My concern is by putting the lighter wheel on the vehicle to reduce the vibration, they are only masking the problem, since the heavier the wheel/tire assembly, the worse the vibration. They are telling me they do not have to do anything else to the vehicle. General motors has told me they are not going to pursue the issue any further. They tell me they know there is an issue but not sure what it is and since it is not a safety issue they have honored the warranty. How do they know that it's not a safety issue if they don't know what the problem is. I believe they know exactly what the problem is and they are passing it on to the consumer. There was no disclosure of the issues with these trucks upon purchase. I do not feel safe in this truck and fear future problems with the issue. Also, the truck on several occasions has down shifted abnormally causing rpms to rise.
Please see attached documents pertaining to vibration issues, emergency brake cable being cut and u-joints oozing grease. Also have numerous videos on the vibration issues like many others.
I have about 85000 miles on my car, i was driving to work and the engine light came up. The code for the engine light came up as p06da which most likely indicates a problem with the engine oil control solenoid (based on most of the videos and reviews on the internet). Unfortunately, gm never made a recall about this!! this problem costs about 3k to fix at the dealer.
Transmission doesn't shift right between 2 and 3 and on down shifting. Never drove a vehicle that does this. Was told nothing is wrong with the trans.
Air conditioning not working. Blowing hot due to worn hole in hose (thousands of known issues all with exactly the same symptoms and fixes... E x a c t l y!!!!!!) called chev, the guy said nhtsa tells them what to pay for and what to recall so they're hands are clean of this issue. Pardon????? worn hole? check bad condenser? checkno bracket? checkdealership/manufacturer participation? no way in hell! this is absolutely terrible business and there's no way the attorney general, the better business bureau and anyone else i can call are not going to hear about this. Oh yeah, the a/c never gets used, otherwise i would've had it fixed 20k miles ago under warranty but i didn't know it wasn't working. There's residue on the hoses from the leak which the dealership should've caught but they didn't. Maybe i go that route?
Me and over 100 people i know have had issues with the 6 speed transmissions in the 2014+ silverados. Mine currently is shifting hard. All of these vehicles are experiencing way too many issues before they should (less than 150k miles). Sometimes my transmission won't shift and leaves me going at an unsafe slow rate of speed in the middle of a busy highway
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that at low speeds the transmission malfunctions, failing to shift gears when the accelerator pedal was being depressed. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled and was hit by another vehicle. Th ce contact stated was taking the vehicle to a local dealer for diagnoses. The contact tried to call the manufacturer but could not get through a live person. The contact researched on line and found there were issues with debris in the transmission of chevrolet trucks. The failure mileage was 46,300.
Our 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 z71 had transmission issues at 38,000 miles and the vehicle had only 84 miles when it was purchased.the transmission would not shift out of first gear and the check engine light was on.i could only drive about 70 mph on the interstate and it felt like i was pushing the engine.this was while returning the truck to the dealership where we purchased it.we are disappointed with the performance of a vehicle we paid good money on.the vehicle is currently at the dealership and is line with 15 other vehicles with transmission problems.this is not what i thought chevrolet gm was about with the production of their vehicles.
The truck and transmission shift very hard, slip or can't find its home. The problem is the worst between park and reverse, and 1st and 2nd gear around 20mph. I have taken it in multiple times times and told everything is operating to spec. One time i was told they were waiting for guidance from gm, but then forgot about that, and said everything is fine.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado. The contact stated while driving approximately 10 mph at a higher altitude, the rpm increased to between 4,000-5000 rpms. The gear shifter was shifted into neutral and the rpmā€™s decreased. The vehicle was taken to an unknown local dealer where the contact was informed that there was a failure due to the high altitude. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000. The vin was not available.
Transmission would not change gears.slipping and caused high revs and sometimes would shift. They told me the hub that contained gears 4-6 was damaged.this a few months after cylinder #7 blew and had to replaced.all of course a few months after the warranty expired.been complaining about the transmission for years.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 30 mph, the vehicle jerked and failed to switch gears. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to beck and masten buick gmc south (12820 gulf fwy, houston, tx 77034, (713) 396-3510) where it was diagnosed that the transmission code required an update. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 34,000.
Truck shakes severely when driving at speeds above 70 mph on many different road types. This problem started not too long after i got my truck new. After complaining about it the service department said this is "standard 22 inch wheel vibration." after i had about 35000 miles on it the vibration got so bad i couldn't stand to drive on the freeway. Took it back to the dealer and they said the tires were wore out even though there was still plenty of tread. Had another shop look at it and they found one of the wheels was ever so slightly bent. Took it back to the dealer to confirm. They sold me a new wheel, the problem didn't go away or change in any way. I bought new tires as they recommended, problem was still there but not so severe until after driving a few thousand miles. The more miles i put on the tires the worse the vibration gets. Took it back into the dealer again recently, they keep telling me it's standard vibration for 22 inch wheels. I know this is bogus because i know a few people with the exact same wheels and tires that don't have the shaking problem, they can drive as fast as they want and it's smooth. Everybody that rides with me asks what is wrong with my truck. How can i convince the dealer that there is an actual problem?
Rpms were rising above 6,000without any power. Randomly while on highway, truck only had 112,000 miles on it and had to have a new transmission put in. And has had many other issues such as the lifters closing while on the highway and brake issues. The worst model truck ever made.
My truck had approximately 10 miles when i purchased it in dec 2014 and has been in the shop pretty much ever since.immediately after purchasing the vehicle, i felt a very substantial vibration around 76+ mph.initially, 2 tires were replaced and balanced; that did not correct the problem.then the dealership indicated that gm said i have to put 500lbs in the back of the truck and the vibration will stop; this is not even remotely practical.subsequently, the tires have been rotated and force balanced several times throughout the past 2 yrs.in june 2016, the dealership stated the problem was that the tires were mounted on the rims incorrectly and replaced all four tires and balanced them; the vibration continued. After trying to schedule another appointment with the dealership over the same issue, they will no longer call me back.i have attempted to schedule an appointment at least 8 times within the past month to no avail.several people have indicated the problem is quite possibly the drive shaft b/c the entire truck vibrates while driving down the road.therefore, i took my vehicle to another dealership where they told me i need to rotate and balance the tires.after discussing the history of the truck with them and requested the service dept. Check the drive shaft, they stated the service manager said it is not the drive shaft (which was not inspected to my knowledge) and told me the tires need to be forced balanced and they could not help me.this dealership referred me to another dealership for assistance.i have been fighting this issue for almost 2 years now and cannot get help.further, neither of the dealerships have made me aware of the bulletin and have not tried anything past the replacing & balancing the tires.the vibration is so bad other things in my truck are starting to come loose and vibrate.
The truck was on street.transmisionwould not engage in the. Second gear, or any gear.turned car off.started truck again same problem. Even in reverse.truck was in lake arrowhead on mountain road by houses.called flat bed tow truck.towed back home to long beach.200 miles!.the truck is in my drive way waiting for an transmission appointment.strange drove around the block and had no problem.even backed in to my driveway with no problem.so not trust truck now.
Torque converter gave out. The vehicle would make a loud vibration and cause the vehicle rpm to go up and down. I ended up having to replace the whole transmission.
This truck has the 6.2 and 8 spd trans.i start it up in the garage and let it idle down, back out of the garage into the street, put the car in drive and feel it engage, push on the gas and it doesn't move for a few seconds or now it will move but then when it tries to do the 1-2 shift it won't shift and the truck stops moving forward for a few seconds until it finally does shift.i had it in to the dealer at 13k miles and they determined there was a problem with the stator support in the trans allowing the converter to drain so they did a partial trans rebuild and updated the parts.the original problem is showing up again along with the 1-2 shift problem.i took it in again at about 18k miles and the dealer said that they could reproduce it and the issues is caused by the "clutch" not being filled with fluid at the time the shift is trying to happen.once the clutch is full...it shifts.i was also told by the dealer that this is a documented issue with gm and there is a bulletin out on it telling dealers this is normal and to not do any repairs trying to fix so they did a software update and put the trans back into learn mode said they were sorry and gave it back to me.this condition is an accident waiting to happen when you expect the vehicle to move and it does not.this transmission is installed in chevy, gmc, and cadillac trucks and suvs and there many complaints on all of the popular message boards online about this exact same issue.some people have complained about almost being hit in the rear because there vehicle won't move.there are many other documented issues with the 8 spd trans gm has been using in their trucks as well and gm will not address any of them saying that they are all normal.i have talked to plenty of other people personally that are experiencing the same issues as well and not getting anywhere.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, there was a loud clunking noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure occurred after shifting gears. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 17,000.
Is a noise from the transmission between 40 and 50 miles an hour, and is also a clunking noise when shifting in traffic.
Transmission always shifted hard and finally stopped shifting at all while in motion (backing out of our driveway).despite taking it a chevy dealership for 3 years for maintenance, we were never told their was a known issue.when the transmission failed, we took it back to the chevy dealership and only when we took it to a transmission shop to get a second opinion were we told this was a known factory defect on several gm models.we ended up having to have the transmission rebuilt along with the rear end to the tune of over $5,000.lemon law does not hold up because we did not have any work done under the warranty (which only covered the first year).
When in motion harsh shifting between gears, sometimes so violent it feels like another car hit me.when accelerating the transmission seems to search for gears, and is sluggish for a high horsepower vehicle. Concerning when trying to accelerate in traffic, transmission hesitates and does not immediately apply power.had transmission serviced 5 months ago due to shudder and shake between 20-35mph.transmission fluid flush helped for a few months, but shudder is returning as well.
I am getting a lot ofclunking in a transmission when it's up shifting and down shifting. On the road under 55 mph. Idle surges when it's switching gears.when it goes into v4 mode at any speed it starts to shudder and vibrate to the point and you can feel it in the gas pedal and steering wheel and a little bit in the seat. And now its making a rubbing noise.
Our transmission is slipping i took it to the dealership and had them drive it they said they were aware of the situation and said they would document the problem that gm is working on a recall notice but it would be january 2019 before anything can be done our truck is now down and we can't wait til january to get the recall notice to get it fixed we depend on this vehicle everyday to go to work now we're down one vehicle the dealership is not trying to help us get our vehicle fixed or replaced without the recall notice.they have several vehicles with the same problem sitting at there dealership 2015-2017 silverado trucks
Drive shaft is out of balance causing it to shimmy on the highway, called gm several time no response to problemtokk back to kupper chevy in mandan ndthey won't fix needs new drive shaft been complaining since 5000 mile now has 54000 and still will not fix
Truck has 130k miles.never used for towing or rough driving.transmission is going bad.reached out to gm and was told itā€™s our problem.we paid 43,000 for this vehicle and transmission issues already.we have a 1997 chevy silverado as well.with 321,000 miles on it and just had to replace the transmission.engine is still running strong. For a vehicle to cost as much as our 2015 you would think the quality would better.
The contact owns a 2016 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving 45 mph, the vehicle start to shake abnormally when the accelerator pedal was depressed. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to a local dealer or independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The contact repaired the vehicle himself by replacing the spark plugs and ignition coils however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The manufacturer stated that the vehicle was not under warranty. No further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
This is a follow up from complaint #11228752 regarding the ac issues on chevy &gmc pickups from 2014 thru 2017 year models. From research i did 98% of the failures was the condenser which also includes the transmission oil cooler. My condenser failed on the drivers side first 3 tubes below the transmission oil cooler as did my friends 2016 sierra and another friend's 2016 texas edition sierra. Same failure same location and between 60 & 75k. Repaired mine myself & my warranty paid me back for new condenser ($219) but not the freon or my labor. There's most definitely an issue on this part and saw no visible difference in the old/ new piece other than a 6'x 6' square of aluminum type flex pad in the upper left corner on driver's side. Similar to the 2018 models not affected by this problem.
On sept 21 2016 i arrived at my home. I drove up my gravel driveway in d(drive) and slowed to a stop and my truck began to roll backward under my control. I was checking on the ground for lawn damage. The truck shuttered twice, shut off and started to roll backward toward a tree. I quickly regained control with a panic stop. I was able to place the truck in park and restart the truck. I had lost control of the truck.
I had an issue with the transfer case got stuck in 4hi and at the time it had a recall so i took it to the dealer located less than 20 miles of my house i never got over 45 mph while stuck in 4hi dealer did recall which fixed the problem for about 7 months then when i was hauling a 18 ft car hauler with a small truck on it and i only had to haul it 30 miles to my house i was about a 1/4 mile from my driveway and the rear end popped really loud 1 time and then all of a sudden it started grinding and i shut the truck off and called roadside and had it towed to dealer and i received a call from the dealer they said that the spider gears had broken and it was going to cost 3000 for a new rear end do to the cross pin retaining bolt had broken inside the differential carrier assembly i decline the service because i didn't see why i had to pay if i still have warranty on it and i had another reardifferential carrier assembly and had it installed which it worked fine except that the when the original rear end broke it said service 4wd and it still said that when i got the rear end fixed and i took to the dealer and they told me that it would cost 130 just to look at it and if they found anything wrong with it that that 130 would go toward repairs and as i said before it is still under warranty and is only got 47000 miles and i took it to a friend's shop that has a snap on computer and pulled codes and researched the codes and what i found was that the transfer case shift module re learned or reprogrammed and that would fix the issue which a lot of other 2014/15 silverado owners have had the same issue with the transfer case and relearning or reprogramming fixed the issue.
Bad lifter causes engine failure at 100,006 miles. Engine had to be replaced. Transmission has extremely hard shifts from park to reverse, and slips between 5th and 6th. Doesn't throw any codes so dealer says it's fine.but it's obviously ruining itself. Reading all these transmissions complaints i can't believe it's not recalled
My truck shakes frequently going down the road at certain speeds. I've had it for around 6 years now and i can't pinpoint exactly when it started. I've had the truck in for maintenance/service at the dealership as well as other auto shops trying to diagnose the problem. I've had new tries, new brakes, countless tire rotations, wheel balancing etc you name it. And the problem persists. Recently after hearing about the "chevy shake" i've come to realize that my problems are just like what others have too. Now my powertrain has given out. And my extended warranty has ended. I truly believe that the issues have caused, or are caused by this prevailing issue of a wobbling drive shaft. Every time i have had it in for repairs the issue still persists and i can't always get the time to go back and have it looked at it again. It is a safety issue above all else and i truly believe gm knows about it but does nothing. Even more to the point, i had a "transmission fluid flush" just under a month ago and now all of a sudden my truck doesn't shift like it should. They say it will cost over 5 thousand dollars to get repaired. There is something seriously wrong here. This is an ongoing issue, and again it is difficult to say when it started. But a vehicle going down the highway at speed limit and shaking is a safety concern.
While driving at speeds starting at and above 70 mph there is an audible noise not present at any other time or circumstance. This is also felt thru the gas petal so my concern is that there could possibly be a defect or out-of-balance component.i demonstrated this condition with the dealer's technician on this and another identical 1500 and it had the same issue. Discussing this with another 2015 silverado 1500 owner found that their vehicle also has the same condition. In fact their vehicle when operated at speeds above 70 mph vibrates so noticeably that the cup holders spill the contents.
Trucks shakes and vibrates at speeds over 65mph. Shakes are so bad it feels as though the wheels are coming loose. Tired have been rebalanced. Replaced. New rims. No solution.
I park in a 5 level parking garage. Several months ago, i was leaving when i came up to the ramp to the next lower level. I let off on the accelerator before i went from flat to lowering ramp. The truck shifted up to second gear, accelerated and through me toward the vehicle in front. The truck went out of my control. If i were not a safe driver i would have struck the vehicle. This issue has occurred another time as well.there have been other problems which are numerous. I will address them individual in further complaints.
Under acceleration and cruising highway speeds the vehicle vibrates and shakes. It is felt in the floorboards, seats, pedals, steering wheel and in the bed of the truck. Vehicle has been into the dealership numerous times getting alignments, wheel balances, and pico scope tests. Under my own investigation i found the factory driveshaft was not straight, out of round and out of balance so i had a professional driveline shop build me a new one. Also under my own investigation i found the rear axel hub flanges were out of round as well and the local dealership had replaced them. Vibration still exists and there seems to be no answers coming from gm.
A deafening buffeting noise and vibration makes it impossible to concentrate on the road. Radio won't drown out the noise. Ear aches, head aches etc. Please help!
Transmission experiences a shudder that cycles every 3 seconds. The torque converter had been replaced but after 45000 miles it has returned. Dealer has recommended a new type of transmission fluid replacement.also had a afm lifter that collapsed and was replaced.
My 2015 silverado high country shakes at highway speeds. The dealer ship where i bought the truck keep telling me there is nothing wrong with the truck despite multiple road force balancing.
Truck shakes at speedsat 55 to 65 miles per hour.
Wheels locked up. Garage states it is 4 wheel drive transfer case. Garage checked with gm for a recall and this issue is on recall for this type/year of truck but vin is not included in the recall. Transfer case must be reprogrammed according to diagnostic test and gm confirmed that is the fix. This vehicle has just over 40,000 miles on it and gm stated it is not covered by recall.
Transmission is lurching if driving 50 mph then slow down to 35 mph when you go to speed back up it lurches. Complained to chevrolet several times they say cannot find anything wrong.
Our 2015 silverado 1500 has stuttering/ hesitation when accelerating, when turning on to a street you can not get up to speed quick enough it acts like there is something hold it back. We have replaced the spark plug and wire and all the coil packs. The voltage meter on the truck keep fluctuating so we replaced the alternator and the battery and that did nothing and kept fluctuating so we got another alternator and another and another and another.. So 5 alternators later and still no fix. But the hard shifting is the main concern. Because when you are driving trying to get into another lane the truck with just start hesitating and jerking until it launches into gear. 1st gear going into 2nd gear the truck will shift extremely hard and 2nd going into 3rd feels like you are galloping until it finally engages. The computer has been replaced and reprogrammed with all updates by and ase certified mechanic. Also did a transmission fluid flush and changed. No service light. Just baffled with all these complaints about transmission why nothing is down. It is a serious safety issue.
The drivers side seat belt has separated from the floor.the cable that attaches the lap belt to the base of the seat has failed.the cable has completely separated.this failure happened when i was parked, at home and just attaching the seat belt.no unusual pressure or strain was placed on the seat belt.the truck has never been involved in an accident and the seat belt has never been under any strain.if you discount the lap belt part of the seat belt the shoulder belt still functions.
Gm has recall 14315 for my year make and style of vehicle.they tell me that my vin is not listed for this recall.my vehicle has the problems listed in this recall.all sounds do not work including the seat beat reminder, the door open reminder and all vehicle sounds from the speakers.gm will not repair it as my vin does not come up in there system for this recall.how can my vin be included for this serious safety issue.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 55 mph, another vehicle failed to obey a stop sign. As a result, the contact crashed into the passenger side of the vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy and the front driver's side seat belt failed to retract. The contact sustained back, neck, leg, arm, and head injuries that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed from the scene to a dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was included in nhtsa campaign number: 16v651000 (air bags, seat belts). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 14,000.
The vehicle was a total loss. Loss control while avoiding a deer. Slid into ditch. Hit a driveway entrance. Was airborne approx. 15 yards. Nose dived into the ground and went back across the ditch into a field, turned left and went into a wooded area of pines. Left front fender made contact with a pine (about eight inches thick ) partially up rooting and continued on to wedge between two pines. Air bags failed to deploy and the seat belt tighten up so tight that i had to use a fairly large screw drive,that i had in the center console, to beat the release in order to unlock the seat belt. With the vehicle getting airborne and nose diving into the ground and the impact of the left front fender intothe tree, the air bags should have deployed. The vehicle was traveling south east on a highway it was approx. 9:30 pm.
I have gotten many notices in the mail that this leased vehicle has a safety recall (15822) - i have called many times - always goes to voice mail, i have left many messages, no reply. I have sent them web messages - no reply. I fear for our safety. Their number is 248-348-7000
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated while at a standstill, the seat belt latch failed to lock securely. The vehicle was not taken to the local dealer. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with nhtsa campaign number: 18v291000 (seat belts) however, the vin was not included. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 108,000.
Seat belt failure!vehicle was parked, i went to put on my seatbelt (driver side) and cable attachment part at base of seatbelt separated. I bought this vehicle new and it has never been in an accident, had any damage or any work done to driver side seat. Vehicle is only 5 years old and currently has 56,000 miles.
Took my 2015 silverado 1500 in for the seat belt recall. When i picked it up it appears that they just cut the rubber dust protector to enlarge the hole. On new unsold trucks they stated that they will replace the entire assembly why not on our new trucks!. I spent over 40k on my truck for this hack job! i think gm should replace all of these with new as this is terrible workmanship!
In the fall of 2020, i received a service bulletin regarding my seatbelt and potential issue with the pre-tensioner cable that could fail. Unable to get into the shop, i continued to drive. One day, i reached over to the passenger seat the the cable snapped leaving me 90 miles from my home without a working seatbelt. When i went to a dealership, they charged me for the repair even though the bulletin indicated it was covered.
Seat belt recall repair performed and rubber skirting around tensioner cable was cut away leaving ragged edges that exposes the cable and sheath to excessive wear. It is also cosmetically unacceptable.
The driver side seat belt will not lock when inserted in the seat belt pretensioner while it is stationery it has to be inserted two or more times before it cashes. It has been reported to the dealership on two occasions when it was taken there for maintenance and we were told we had to pay for it to be replaced. So now my husband is driving with a seat belt that will not stay locked in case of an accident.. Also i don't have the exact dates but it was reported in 2017.
Bought my vehicle 2 months ago and airbag light and airbag service light came on. Went to get checked out and the passenger retractable sensor is bad and needs fixed. This should not be an issue with my newer truck.
The contact owned a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign numbers:16v651000 (air bags, seat belts) and 16t016000 (tires). Prior to receipt of the recall, while driving approximately 50 mph, the contact's vehicle was t-boned on the driver side. The air bags failed to deploy. A police report was filed. Injuries were sustained and medical attention was required. The vehicle was towed to a collision center and destroyed. The approximate failure mileage was 1,000.
Seat belt recall for the 2015 silverado (pretensioner cable)........landers chev in norman, ok inspected and reports they handled the recall issue on 9/20/2016. On 8/2/2021,the pretensioner cable broke off (not under any stress).i called the dealer and also gm, and was told the cable was fixed back in 2016.i advised that a safety repair should last more than 5 years.both told me that i would need to pay for the repair. Obviously,the original issue was either not fixed at all,or fixed with the same failing cable from the recall. That was not a fix.there should be another recall.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact noticed that both rear passenger seat belt buckles were melted. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to buff whelan chevrolet (located at 40445 van dyke ave, 18 mile, sterling heights, mi 48313, (877) 237-3928), but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 55,300.
The seat shifts during a right and/or left turn. I was told at the dealership, this was a problem, however there has not been a recall. I jerk with the seat during the turns. I am afraid that if i have an accident or the truck rolls over in an accident the seat will not be secure and may crush me or the driver.
Center jump seat is not equipped with the head restraint. There is a risk that in the event of the rear impact occupant's head will quickly move over the edge of the backrest resulting in an injury.
Have been experiencing a disconcerting side to side driver seat movement when navigating corners.had truck looked at as there have been numerous online posted issues with this issue.upon inspection, was told the seat frame was broken at a weld point and seat would need to be replaced.also told they have replaced "many" broken seat frames for the year and model of my silverado.note, this truck has only 16,000 miles on it and is maintained like new.
The drivers seat makes a lateral movement and/or clicking noise.the seat is not stable and can cause a loss of control of the vehicle because of the seat movement when driving.gm is completely aware of the problem.the problem exists on 2014, 2015, 2016 silverado's and on other gm vehicles. Gm will repair the problem if the owner notices it during the 36 month/36000 miles but is refusing to repair it after that.gm has supposedly corrected the problem in 2017and newer vehicles.service bulletin #18-na-377 dated dec 17, 2018 document id # 5185379 applies.this movement and noise occurs while driving especially while turning and is completely distracting.this defect in the front seat mechanism allows for safety concerns that the seat can become dislodged especially during an accident.gm has refused to repair and correct this defect that they have known about for years.
It seems that my vehicle is leaking somewhere around either the sunroof or the xm antenna. I already had the leak around the third brake light which not only filled the lens up with water and kept blowing bulbs for my third brake light fixed. But from the research i've done it seems that a lot of different year and models of the silverado have been doing so. But some how when it rains or i wash my truck or go thru a car wash i get water dripping from my headliner onto my heated seats, down behind my dash and water puddling up into my floorboard, on the drivers side. When the third brake light was leaking my whole rear floorboard would be completely soaked. The condensation on my windows would make it hard to drive and be able to see thru the windshield, the water dripping on me while driving was a distraction also and if i turned on my heated seats i sometimes would feel electrical shocks in my butt, and the fact that i have mold growing on top of my headliner and in my carpet makes my truck smell and i'm sure breathing the mold in isn't health for me or my 10 year old son. I took the truck to the local chevy place and they won't fix it due to it having over 36,000 miles yet i have the extended warranty which doesn't cover this, my insurance company doesn't cover it either.
I was driving and the brake strength went extremely low.i took it to the auto shop and they said the brake vacuum pump went had.also, the driver side seat has a rock to it when your weight is shifted sometimes.
At low speeds of 15mph or less, when brakes are applied, the vehicles brake assist stops working and the electric to the car flashes off. If speeds are low enough and you apply brakes while turning right at a light or stop sign, the vehicle will shutoff and steering wheel locks. This is a huge safety issue and poor design.
Going throught down town traffic and the brakes would not work. It felt like i was pushing on a brick. Then had to use emergency brake in traffic for two hours.my boss has same truck as i do and one week later had the same thing happen except he hit the wall at his home. I have spoken with several other employees and all have experienced this problem. It cost about 800 dollars to fix it
When brake pedal depressed the braking system has malfunction.brake petal has little movement, feels hard and vehicle does not respond.takes a great amount of pressure to stop vehicle than vehicle still moves.
Increased brake pedal effort, hard brake pedal, and/or potentially increased stopping distance due to low mechanical vacuum pump output. Condition is more prevalent at low speed when softly applying the brake. Decrease vacuum/power brake assist over time, failure to follow recommended oil change intervals could contribute to conditions. Driver's information center (dic) "service brake assist" alert will activate 2-5 minutes after dropping in vacuum level, and diagnostic trouble code (dtc) will also be set. Hydraulic brake system remains functional but may require additional pedal force.
I was backing up my silverado and my trailer at slow speeds and the brakes became very stiff and i continued to roll after stepping on my brakes. Luckily i was in a street and not able to cause damage to anything behind me. This was after i already got the recall taken care of. It was concerning because this was not the first time this has happened, as i have experienced this before the recall as well. I notice this stiff brake mostly at slow speeds and have noticed it mostly when going in reverse.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving about 40 mph and attempting to slow down, the brakes did not work. The contact stated that the brake pedal went to the floor and caused the vehicle to rear-end the vehicle in front of it. The contact also stated that the steering either locked up or lost power and that there was no warning. The vehicle was damaged but was not totaled or towed. There was no injury reported. A police report was filed. The vehicle was taken to the burns chevrolet cadillac, inc. Dealer (803-366-9414, located at 2515 n, cherry rd, rock hill, sc 29732) where it was confirmed that there was a recall (nhtsa campaign number: 18v586000 (steering)). The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 103,000. Parts distribution disconnect
Truck has become very hard to stop latley.brake pads look new.dealer says nothing is wrong.almost rear ended multiple cars this month.thinking of just trading it in on a ram.truck doesn't want to stop!!!
If i am at a stop and creep up and push the brake pedal, it gets solid and fails to stop the vehicle!
Breaking at low speed in traffic or a parking lot the breaks grab, skip and the truck vibrates before coming to a stop. Returned truck to glendora chevrolet where purchased.they performed recall n192268490, updated ebcm, wcc:28yn28468172 per receipt they gave me. Vacuum pump was replaced.all this did not correct the break problem to this day.please advise.
While backing up vehicle, at a slow speed, gravel driveway, backing down hill, brake pedal became hard and required a considerable amount more braking effort with much less effect. After vehicle was stopped and moved forward, this was still present. Vehicle was again stopped and then power cycled. This returned the vehicle to normal.
When attempting to brake, i pressed the brake pedal with appropriate force only to find that there was a loss of brake power... I would equate it to 85-90% brake loss. I was able to apply pressure as hard as i could and the vehicle stopped over double the usual stopping distance. I did end up going through the stop sign and was thankfully not hit. I pulled over and restarted my truck, i applied pressure to the brakes and all normal pedal feel has been restored.
I was driving and the brake strength went extremely low.i took it to the auto shop and they said the brake vacuum pump went had.also, the driver side seat has a rock to it when your weight is shifted sometimes.
The brake assist warning light came on while driving and the could not brake properly the brake pedal was really hard to brake. A;most had a wreck cause i could brake properly on time
Whenevr i back the truck up at slow speeds, the brakes temporarily fail for approximately 1-3 feet.coming to a stop at slow speeds can also cause the truck to take extra distance to stop.i have changed to new brake pads, turned the rotors, and purchased new tires.the truck bounces severely when traveling at speeds over 50 mph on concrete roads.only on concrete.asphalt has normal ride as soon as the road transitions then the truck bounces.
Need to replace the vacuum pump and line because brakes are wicked soft. At slow speeds truck doesnt want to stop. For example in traffic or parking. When i went to the chevy dealer they told me that they've seen a handful of other vehicles with the same issue
About 41000 miles on my truck. I had braking problem when driving at low speed at parking lot. I almost hit the car because i was not able to stop due to the braking issue. I felt loosing pressure while braking. I had this issue 3 times. On july 16, i noticed the issue then it did not happened again. But it came back again on august 31 and september 1. I took my truck to dealer and they replaced vacuum pump. I found that many people had same issue but no recall. I had to spent about $500 for new vacuum pump.
I had a brake defective vacuum pump on my on 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. I had the vacuum pump changed on 1/30/2019. My brakes were losing pressure when i was driving slowly. My brakes would lose pressure primarily while i was backing up.i have narrowly missed having several accidents (with other vehicles and property) due to the problem. On one instance, i lost brake pressure going down a hill. Braking distance was increased, and so were my efforts to halt my truck.i also noticed my brakes losing pressure after my truck giving me several alerts (while driving and parked) about servicing the trailer brake system. I am not sure if that has any bearing on the vacuum pump. I will also be replacing the trailer brake switch on my truck. I hope this fixes everything and i will not have that problem again. I did some research on the internet and it sounds like this is a common problem. This has been a particular problem with my truck since about august or so.
It would roll even with the foot on the brake at low speeds faulty air pump had to get air pump, tube, air pump belt,alternator belt, air condition belt that cost me $700.
When having to apply the brakes repeatedly, slow traffic, stop lights, backing a trailer.the brakes become extremely hard to push and do not function.exceptionally dangerous backing a trailer down a boat ramp or in stop and go traffice.this has happened numerous times over the past year
Powered brake vacuum pump occasionally fails at lower rpm
2015 silverado 1500, 4x4, 41,000 miles on odometer. At slow speed on city street driving straight (under 5mph), complete loss of all power assistance of brakes. Driver needed to apply extreme manual pressure at pedal to get the vehicle to stop and not roll into the car in front of it. Immediately parked, came back issues persisted in parking lot, but then went away when after speed of approx 10mph reached. No warning lights or display indicators triggered during incident.issue has not occurred again. (approx 70 miles since issue first occurred)
Left side brake calliper support bolt fell out of top mount.(lost on hwy). Bottom bolt half way out. Calliper started scrubbing inner rem. Vibration and loud popping noise.
Hard to stop at slow speeds, vibrating brake pedal. Increased stopping distance.
My complaint or safety notice is that on august 12 2018 the brake pedal on my 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 began compressing a short distance and then became extremely hard, the vehicle is by all physical means nearly impossible to stop even at a very slow speed.i had my truck towed to my dealer believing it was not safe to drive, and was advised that the "brake system vacuum pump and booster had failed due to internal contamination.there is no warning in the vehicle sensing system to advise the operator to have the brakes serviced for this issue.chevrolet issued a technical service bulletin (tsb #pit5361a & #pit5361b) in 2016.obviously they are aware of the problem.mine brakes failed after just pulling in my driveway from a 600 mile trip.had this happened at highway speed, i would have likely been injured or killed, as would any vehicle occupants in a car i could have potentially hit.i have researched the problem online, and there are an endless amount of complaints posted for this exact problem.unfortunately there has been no recall that i can find.it will cost me $1626 for the repair, i assume the replacement parts are the same type that failed.undoubtedly someone is going to be seriously injured or killed, there are individuals and families driving around as i write this complaint that are unaware their brakes might fail the next moment they need them.ask yourself if this has already caused serious injury or death, but the failure perhaps could not be pinpointed due to the damage of the crash, remember there is no sensor or warning for this issue being logged into the cars computer system.odds are this has already caused harm.i'm asking that a recall be implemented and a safety warning be immediately released for vehicles that have this design flaw in the braking system.your immediate intervention could save a life.
Breaking system vacuum pump failure. Common and known problem. Brakes sporadically require substantially more effort to slow vehicle and increases breaking distance significant with no warning. Increases likelihood of crashes. Mine failed while driving 30 miles an hour on an exit ramp almost causing a collision. Gm refuses to cover this under warranty and despite knowing that this is a common problem, has not issued a recall.
At low speeds (such as in parking lots, at traffic lights, stop and go traffic, ect.) i lose brake assist, making it extremely difficult to stop.
Driving down single lane road i began to stop for red light, as i began to depress brake pedal but it was stiff and had significant effect slowing my truck. I drove of right side of road into wet grass too avoid collision of suv stoped in front of me. There was no loss of control or damage done to exterior of truck or myself . As i'm almost completely stoped the side curtain air bags deploy for no apparent reason causing sever damage it the interior panels, headliner and both front seat belts that have that contain small charge permintly lock and now are un usable.i was only person in truck but the passenger front seat belt is retracted and locked guitar string tight.
Brakes fail at low speed. Problem diagnosed by chevrolet dealer and determined to be the same problem as outlined in chevrolet technical service bulletin pit5361b. Gm not covering repair as they claim nothing is wrong and the vehicle is out of warranty.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 15 mph, the brake pedal was depressed and failed to operate. As a result, the vehicle crashed into a tractor trailer. The air bags failed to deploy. A police report was not filed and there were no injuries. The contact was able to park the vehicle. The contact called gengras chevrolet at (860) 748-4355 (585 connecticut blvd, east hartford, ct 06108) and was informed that they were unaware of any brake failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 68,000.
Brake pedal gets hard at slow speeds making stopping very diffulcult especially when backing my boat into the lake. I seriously thought truck and boat were about to go into the lake.
While in a parking lot, there was an almost complete loss of brakes.the brake pedal would not depress.only after pressing multiple times and very hard was there any braking action which slowed the truck.gm has issued a service bulletin, pit5361 about this issue.this is a known issue.
Driving at slow speeds especially parking the brake pedal gets hard to depress and braking power is almost non-existent. This has been happening on and off since 30,000 miles and now daily at 60,000. The abs indicator has gone on and off and the check engine light is on constantly now.
Yesterday (18-mar-2019), i was pulling into a parking space at a restaurant and all of a sudden when i tried to apply my brakes on my 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 crew cab, the pedal was extremely hard to push.the truck continued moving after i exerted as much force as i could on the pedal.luckily the curb assisted in stopping the truck before i crashed into a wall as i had my two young children in the vehicle with me at the time.i am also glad my wife was not driving the vehicle at the time.i don't believe that she would have had enough force to stop the vehicle under the conditions observed.no warning lights came on before, during, or after the incident.the symptoms match those reported under bulletin pit5361 regarding a known issue with failure of the brake vacuum pump.i purchased the truck new in august 2015.the truck has about 51,000 miles on it.
Menards entrance parking lot, approaching a left turn into the parking lot, applied brakes and slid into the corner pole located on the south side of the building, truck was unable to stop!, causing damage to the front end of my vehicle and causing physical damage to my wife. Before accident happened i did report the faulty braking system to local gm dealership 3x, still having issues, 2nd accident in a parking lot truck again wouldn't stop! running into the side of a cement parking wall, this is when i brought it in the 4th x and they tell that it was fixed! and again while drivingout of the dealer ship shop drove about a mile, coming to park the truck again wouldn't stop had to avoid hitting a oncoming car that was leaving that area. After all this i contacted gm headquarter and they sent a inspector out to inspect the vehicle, recently contacted me and explain that well the truck was in an accident! and they replaced the vacuum brake with a new one! the truck is operating okay! already frustrated asked what about the damage to the truck! and to my wife, response i will have to get back to you! did get back to me well we can pay for the side of the truck damage but that's it, what about my wifes neck injury, no reply, ask to get him a estimate and fax. So that's where im at with this, still waiting, with my wife still enduring pain after the 1st accident. No satisfaction yet.
Truck brake pedal pushes to the floor at low speeds and braking. After pumping the pedal it comes back up but then presses to the floor again. Vehicle is not braking properly!
Brakes stop working at low speeds or when reversing. Feel like they get completely stiff at low speeds, and dont work again until i increase the amps. I have read that it is an issue with the vacuum pump. Getting looked at today. Truck has 77k miles on it.
Braking assist service warning message appeared on screen. Noticed braking assist is not working at low speed and idle. Requires significant foot pressure to have brakes work. No accident yet.
Brakes went out while driving on freeway and i had to push the brake pedal down as hard as i could to get truck to slow down while i moved over to the shoulder. It turns out the vacuum pump on my braking system went out.
As my wife came to a complete stop at a stoplight and as the light turned green, she pressed the gas pedal and the truck would not accerlate. She pressed the gas pedal down to the floor board and still would not accerlate. So due to this the truck slowly rolled foward. She slammed on the brakes and the brakes would not move. Like if they became locked and wouldn't move an inch. At this point she is trying to get off the road to the shoulder, to avoid oncoming traffic. Then she finds that the steering wheel is also locked and can not be turned. It's taking her maximum effort to stop the truck from rolling forward and to veer off the road to avoid other vehicles. She is finally able to stop the vehicle after about 100 yards of effort and waits about 10 minutes, before the brakes and steering wheel would free up. No error message was present the entire time these functions were disabled and after they freed up, it was like if nothing ever happened. No check engine light has ever been on this vehicle. Strong belief this is a manufacturing defect and should have a recall.
My truck is 3 years old i have 39,500 miles. The vacuum pump has went out and i lose the ability to brake at times luckily my hill assist prevented me from rolling down a hill. Second time happened was in heavy traffic was able to pull off side of road before i rear ended another vehicle. There are numerous reports online with this affecting 2014-2018 models. Took to dealership this is a $700 replacement charge.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 15 mph, the vehicle began to lose vacuum pressure when the brake pedal was depressed. The contact had to apply excessive force to the brake pedal to bring the vehicle to a complete stop. The contact stated that the brakes engaged once the vehicle reached 1,000 rpms. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The failure recurred twice. The vehicle was taken to performance chevrolet (4811 madison ave, sacramento, ca 95841) where it was diagnosed that the vacuum pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and stated that the vehicle was out of warranty. The approximate failure mileage was 46,000.
Brake pedal will go hard on sporatic occassions at low speeds
Loss of brakes 2 times once on interstate 40, and once on a hill in town..brakes went to floor .finely stoped.
I've experienced the same issues that numerous people are reporting and also received the letter from chevy/gm in regards to the brake failure at slow speeds.i've had this issue occur at least 3 times in the last couple of years.didn't realize it was as big of a known problem until conducting additional research.want to ensure my voice is heard/known in the larger complaint that is developing.a recall should be issued.this is a scary situation when this occurs.simply turn off truck and start it up again and the immediate problem goes away.however the issue occurs without any warning and could definitely lead to an accident.
While at low speeds mostly backing my vehicle loses braking. The pedal goes to the floor however the vehicle continues to roll.
Brake assist vacuum pump fails.special bulletin issues with warranty extension.what gm is failing to tell people, braking does not simply become difficult at low speeds, brakes fail at normal speeds.vehicle in motion at highway speeds, eventually able to get it stopped after extreme extension of normal braking distance.after suggested warranty repair i continue to experience intermittent issues.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While the contact's spouse was driving 5 mph, the brake pedal was depressed, but failed to slow down the vehicle. The contact stated that the brake pedal felt very firm. The vehicle was driven to moran chevrolet (located at 4511 24th ave, fort gratiot twp, mi 48059, (812) 202-4062) where it was diagnosed that the vacuum pump, brake booster, brake lines, and brake master cylinder needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 63,324.
Vehicle fails to stop at low speeds while parking in forward or reverse.
On several occasions while backing down a sloped driveway while depressing the brake, the pedal has become hard to push and braking was almost impossible. This same problem has occurred while backing a trailer, it takes a greater applied force to depress the brake.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While reversing out of the parking lot, the contact attempted to depress the brake pedal; however, they failed to respond. When the contact made a second attempt, the brakes responded and the vehicle stopped. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the brake vacuum failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified. The failure mileage was 62,000. The vin was not provided.
Noticed failure of vehicle to stop. Lack of power assist braking at slow speeds. Brake pedal is rock hard with little to zero travel (1/4' at most). Vehicle will continue to move (regardless of pressure applied to brake pedal) for several feet. While this has occurred in both forward and reverse gears; the issue is consistently observed in reverse.
While backing my truck up at slow speeds if i press the brake pedal 3 or more times my brake pedal gets hard and vehicle will not stop with no warning lights my truck almost went into lake
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While pulling out of the driveway, the brake pedal failed to stop the vehicle. The contact had to apply both feet on the brake pedal with excessive force for the vehicle to roll to a stop. When the vehicle was turned off and restarted, it operated normally. The contact stated that the brake power booster assist failed. The vehicle was taken to henderson chevrolet (240 n gibson rd, henderson, nv 89014, (702) 208-9999) where it was determined that there was a technical service bulletin regarding the vacuum pump. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 51,000.
I was driving in rush hour traffic and i went to hit my brakes and the pedal was hard and the truck would not stop. I put my flashers on and went very slow to the next exit. I went to park the truck at the hotel i was staying at shortly after exiting highway and as i was in reverse backing into a parking spot again the truck had a hard brake pedal and would not stop. I didnt hit anything thank got but it scared me pretty good. I carpooled with a coworker for the rest of that week while we were out of town for work. I ended up driving the vehicle home about 3 hrs away friday evening and had no problems with the brakes. I have not driven the truck much since this has happened and since i had seen many others have had the same problem. The truck goes into the dealer 11/27/18 and hopefully they will replace what needs replacing. I bought this truck 9/26/18 with 21,000 miles roughly and the truck now 25,773. The truck is a certified pre own vehicle if that matters.
Brake peddle randomly becomes hard to push and will not stop the vehicle after otherwise normal functioning.this occurs generally at low speeds in forward and reverse. This has occurred on numerous occassions but randomly
When slowing down to park, i lost braking and could not stop the truck. I had to put the truck in park to stop the momentum. This happened going in reverse. When taken to dealer i was charged $470.96 for parts and labor at n the vacuum pump which provides power for braking and steering.
9/21 in stop and go traffic . Vehicle was stopped on one side of intersection waiting for traffic to clear and moved to other side 5 miles /hour silverado would not stop and drove into stopped jeep with wheel on back. No damage to jeep. Jeep hit audi with minor bumper damage. Driving on south blvd crossing cleavland in tampa, fl. Vehicle traveled only across the intersection from a dead stop.brakes failed to stop vehicle.warranty work was performed prior to brake failure.vehicle was inspected by gm 12/7/19 at jim brown chevrolet. . we are waiting for reply. Vehicle now sits at furman chevrolet on dale mabry in tampa, fl.
Brake failure , while pulling into or out of a parking spot , brakes lose pressure and become very stiff and stop working. The pedal becomes quite hard and will not work causing vehicle to continue moving forward or reverse.especially at slow speeds, i have barely missed impacting the cars across the parking lot.
When trying to park the brake pedal seems to become very stiff and the vehicle doesn't want to stop.i have to use all my weight on the pedal to get my vehicle to stop. It seems to always happen a slow speeds. I have been able to duplicate the problem when parking in my drive way, a parking lot, and it happened during a 3 point turn.
When coming to a stop in traffic the brakes failed to stop my truck. I was going straight at a very low speed.the pedal felt like i was pushing on a brick. I did get my truck stopped and got it off the road. I called my dealer who said they had not heard of this problem but thought it sounded like a brake booster failure. I called gm customer service who started a case # 9-5055710889, they told me that the truck was out of warrenty. Upon further reading i discovered the tsb for my truck to replace the brake booster, master cylinder, line , and vacum pump.the truck is being repaired now. My truck has 41,000 miles on it.
At low speed with stop and go traffic loss of brake assist/boost.first application of the brakes was normal.after release and reapplication, brake boost was lost, pedal became very hard and vehicle failed to stop.
Received an alert around 63,500 miles "alert: service break assist." dealership service advisor notified me that problem was "brake master cylinder leaking into vacuum boster. Both need to be replaced." cost $1172.61. Break basically wouldn't work properly when pressed. This should not happen so early. I've only had truck for two years. Chevrolet needs to fix this. This could have caused an injury to myself or my family.
On 12/15/2018 my brake vacuum pump went out. I had it replaced at a dealership. Total cost $1506.56. Master cylinder, brake booster, and a connecting pipe had to be replaced also. April 2019, i receive a letter from gm, describing this issue and saying if i have less than 72,000 miles or bought it new within the last 6 years,whichever come first, they will fix it.brakes are a very serious component. This problem dates back to the 2014,s. I feel gm should reimburse me for my repair cost, since the problem came from their plant. I have more miles on my truck than they say they will cover. Brakes and the components are things they should cover. I have invoices and proof that i paid these expenses. Every person pays hard earned money for a new vehicle. Manufacturers should be required to back their vehicles. I was driving on a side street when this pump went out. I had all i could do to stop it, using both feet on the brake pedal. Thank you for your time.
Break vacuum pump breaks get hard at low speed making the the vehicle hard to break when making a stop or in an emergency stop and when trying to slow down
I unerstand that you are already investigating the braking braking problem at slow speeds , i have been experiencing the same problem for some time , can you please add me to your complaint list , and keep me informed of any results , thanks (xxxxx)parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)
When i step on the brakes it gets really hard and will not stop. It happened to me in a parking lot. I was pulling into a parking spot and did not stop. Then when i was driving down the road i rear-ended someone and i was not driving very fast. My concern is that if a child or car runs out in front of me i wil not be able to stop. This has happened several times now. I have paid mechanics to replace my brake pads, calipers, disc's because i do not want to hurt myself or someone else.
Brake pedal become extremely hard to press when vehicle speed is under 10mph
On my way home pulling a 5000 lbs boat and trailer on a public highway and suddenly my brakes get hard as a rock and loose the ability to basically stop with any quick response.after limping the truck a short distance to a friends business i learn this truck has a brake power assist pump???????????? call me old fashion but the vacuum usually comes from the intake manifold,not a rinky dink pump with a belt to drive it. Totally unsafe in my opinion.something as important as brakes to be relied on a rubber band and a5 dollar china bearing. I feel this is a poor and unsafe design and could easily been avoided.now comes the enjoyment of having it repaired and only a dealer available part. Truck just turned 50k and my dealership is telling me this item is not.covered under warranty.
At low speeds, the brake pedal becomes very stiff. It is hard to stop vehicle. It happens in forward and reverse.
At low speeds my brakes are very hard to press. The pedal gets really tight and will not press down. The longer you try to press the tighter they get. The truck will barely stop before i almost hit something. Does not do it every time, but it seems to be more frequently. It seems to happen when i go from a stop, then accelerate slowly and then try to slow down to a stop (ex. When parking).
On two separate occasions within a 1 week period, the brake pedal became impossible to depress with the vehicle in motion. A noise could be heard similar to that of an active abs. The first time this occurred while pulling into a crowded parking lot. I had to use the emergency brake to prevent a collision with a parked vehicle. The second time this occurred, i was parking at a curb in the main area of my town and again had to utilize the emergency brake to avoid hitting a parked vehicle. Internet research leads me to believe this to be a common issue with multiple reports of the same experience.
There has been loss of power braking at low speeds.the brake pedal has a vibrating feel as it is pressed.the pedal will go down all the way to the floor with very little braking power.i took my truck in for the recall work for the same issue which had no effect.i had a prior problem with a fuel injector going out with less than 50,000 miles on the truck.this caused loss of power in situations where power is needed such as merging on to a freeway.this is a very dangerous situation where someone could be killed.chevrolet says the fuel injector is not part on the engine even through the maniford had to be removed to replace it.the part was not replace under under warranty.this part should not be failing under any circumstance.
At low speeds i have no breaks and the pedal is rock hard. Zero to 1/4' of movement and the truck will not stop. I nearly hit someone.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While in traffic, the brake pedal felt hard when depressed and failed to slow down the vehicle. The contact had to drive off the freeway and onto the gravel to bring the vehicle to a complete stop. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence and later towed to mark christopher auto center (2131 e convention center way, ontario, ca 91764, (909) 321-5860) where it was diagnosed that the brake vacuum pump failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 71,000.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that the brakes were faulty. In addition, the brake pedal felt hard and would not stop the vehicle when depressed. The contact had to apply excessive force to the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was driven to radley chevrolet (3670 jefferson davis hwy, fredericksburg, va 22408, (540) 898-4000) where it was diagnosed that a vacuum pump needed to be installed. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 32,320. The vin was unknown.
Vacuum pump for brake system and hose/tube that connects to the pump had to be replaced after i lost brakes completely while driving the vehicle with my two year old daughter in the back seat!!the vehicle had to be towed to auto repair shop. Mileage was at 55,096. This happened while in a drive thru line at chic fila. Brakes got very hard and i just kept rolling into vehicle in front to me. I stopped rolling just short of hitting the vehicle. I slowly went through the line to park the vehicle in the parking lot and the brakes were completely rock hard the entire time. I had to simply roll to get where i needed to park slowly.
Brakes suddenly required much more effort to work.happens frequently when applying brakes at low speeds, and occasionally when applied intermittently while slowing from 50-80mph.examples of when this frequently occurs are:entering parking spaces, stop and go traffic, approaching toll booths on highways, descending hills, and any situation where brakes are applied and released repeatedly over a short period of time.condition can be very dangerous and cause accidents.i have needed to stand on brakes when stopping in many occasions to avoid accidents.lately the condition had worsened and i did not feel safe driving the vehicle.upon researching the issue i found many similar complaints from owners and survive bulletins from gm that include a large amount of affected vehicles.this should be a forced safety recall.
The truck experienced a hard brake pedal at low rpm, stop light, parking lot, etc. When brake is depressed the pedal is hard to press and the braking ability is reduced and the truck will continue to roll.chevrolet is aware of the problem and issued a bulletin in february 2015,my 2015 was purchased in september 2015.when i complained of the issue at dealer, i was told i am out of warranty and would have to pay a portion of the repair on a known defect.
I was driving at slow speed driving straight while parking my truck and the brakes became rock hard and could barely stop which i came inches from hitting the car in front of me. I was traveling under 5mph just coasting with my foot off the gas and when i hit the brake nothing was happening which i had to put a lot of force to just barely stop my truck in time. The dealership i visited told me the vacuum pump for the brakes was going out and replaced it since i have a 4 month old baby and need a reliable car. My truck only had around 50k miles on it and all the chevy cars my family has owned have never had an issue with brake boosters or vacuum pumps. Apparently this is a common enough problem that chevy has a bulletin for hard brake pedals during low speed. Running a search online for this issue comes back with many people having the same issue and quite a few having repeated repairs with the problem only recurring. The brakes are not just hard but pretty much non functional when this issue occurs and really is pretty scary when i am driving around my baby that this could happen again with no warning. For such a key component of vehicle safety, this issue really needs a close look and a recall to remedy this known defect. There is no reason this component should go out in a 3 year old truck.
Loss of power braking while traveling slowing and using the brakes
Brake pedal becomes unresponsive and soft at times, and other times feels like the brakes are not releasing all the way making it pull left/right randomly and very hard to control.occasionally the abs activates while not moving/parked just by by holding brake pedal.also found oil of some kind in brake fluid during routine flush.vacuum pump makes quite a bit of noise.
The brakes occasionally will get hard when depressing at a low speed and fail to work.this usually happens coming to a final stop in my driveway that is down a slope after i have already been using the brake to slow down some.the vehicle is barely moving when it happens.it has happened a couple of other times going down a slope in our subdivision entrance applying occasional brake pressure at about 20 mph.i had it diagnosed by the local chevy dealer and they said the vacuum pump and seal needs to be replaced and the brake system flushed.total estimate for the work was $970 which i did not have done.i noticed online that others have had this same issue.
My silverado has already had the software upgrade related to the previous vacuum pump/brake recall (n192268490). It initially helped, but now the brake pedal is again extremely hard to press at slow speeds, such as in traffic. You need to almost stand on it to stop. It appears that the deterioration is back where it was before the software "fix." i will be taking to the dealership this week and requesting a replacement of the vacuum pump under warranty or recall. I am beyond regular powertrain warranty at this point, but brakes seem like they should work past 80k.
Loss of brakes when driving slow
When pumping brakes to stop, on the second to third pump the pedal gets rock hard and vehicle very difficult to stop. Loss of vacuum pressure seems to be the issue. In the gm dealer now, telling me the vacuum booster defective
When reversing the breaks were very stiff and the truck would not stop like it should and almost ran into another vehicle.
I purchased my 2015 silverado pre-owned with 2,000 miles in october 2016.in may of 2018 i was traveling through multiple states.i was stuck in slow traffic for multiple hours due to an accident on the highway.it was then that i first experienced an issue with my brakes.when moving at a very slow pace, the brakes seemed to lose the power assist.i took the truck in for it's oil service at castroville chevrolet on 6/22/2018.i mentioned this issue to the service writer who was not aware of any issues with the silverado brakes.at the time it was cost prohibitive for me to have it investigated and could not lose the vehicle for an extended time.it has happened multiple times since then, again only at very low speeds, such as parking.i have an appointment on 11/28/2018 with castroville chevrolet to have it looked at.all of these incidents happened while in motion.i believed it to be a vacuum issue as it only happened at low speeds.
Noticed brakes seemed to stop working properly at low rpm.happened while backing out of driveway. Also while sitting in traffic at redlight.
I brought my 2015 chevy silverado 1500 to a local repair shop as my brakes were not functioning properly.stopping required very forcefully depressing the brake pedal to stop.on november 7, 2018 the repair shop contacted the local chevy service manager to determine if there was a recall on the vehicle given that the vehicle is a recent model with limited mileage.it was determined that master cylinder and brake booster were defective and needed to be replaced. After taking a lengthy drive the vehicle had same brake problems making it extremely difficult to brake going down a hill.the vehicle was taken back to the local auto repair on november 15th.repair shop called local chevy dealer and spoke with parts manager to see if there was a recall on recent model chevy silverado as they had a 2016 silverado in there shop same day for same problem. Chevy dealer parts manager indicated there was not a current recall but they did notice an issue as they had sold 10 abs pumps in just one week!the local repair shop replaced the abs pump.the defective brake equipment placed my family at risk and cost me more than $900.most importantly this defective brake equipment in the recent model chevy silverado is a significant safety issue. Had there been a need to stop quickly i feel confident i would not have been able to avoid a collision.
I was coming off a hill and trying to brake before making a turn onto another road.the brake pedal would not depress, felt very hard and i was unable to stop the vehicle.i took the truck to a garage and was told it was a fault in the brake vacuum booster and master cylinder.i will attach the invoice for the parts.the truck is still getting fixed and do not have an invoice for labor yet.
Brake pedal gets very hard when driving at slow speeds and in reverse. Makes a ticking sound like the anti lock brakes are kicking in but no dash lights illuminate. Almost rear ended a vehicle travelling 25mph but was able to pull in a parking lot to avoid collision. Truck has 79xxx miles
Poor braking performance at low speed.vehicle continues to travel a short distance after brakes are fully depressed.caused minor collision when backing out of a parking space.brakes have been inspected by dealership on multiple occasions and been deemed to be operating properly.symptoms are most noticeable when applying brakes repeatedly; e.g. Stop and go traffic or making a multiple point turn.
Brakes became hard to press down.would hardly stop.
While backing up from drive way tried braking to stop and truck continued to travel almost hitting a vehicle that was parked on the street. The next day before taking the truck to the dealer to have it inspected made a stop at the gas station and again the truck would not stop. Dealer diagnose bad vacuum pump and oil in brake booster and lines ,all needed to be replaced costing over $1,300 dollars.
Takata recall .. While driving my truck , 2015 silverado with only 38k miles .. A (warning light ) displays (service trailer brake system) it continues to chime & display on the dash non stop even if i have a trailer hooked up to the truck or not & it does not matter what speed i'm driving . This is a safety issue due to when i am towing my trailer as soon as it displays the service trailer break system light, i lose the ability to use my electric trailer breaks until the display shuts off .. It would be appreciated if this issue can be checked in to .. I did see they had a recall & the same issues for the 2014 models but not the 2015
Brake suddenly became real hard and i couldn't stop the vehicle. I had to press real hard to get it to stop. I ran into the middle of the intersection at a red light fortunatelyno cars were close to that intersection at that time01
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving at a low speed, the brake pedal became stiff and the brakes failed to respond in a timely manner. The contact had to depress the brake pedal several times to stop the vehicle. The failure was experienced several times. The vehicle was taken to healey chevrolet (5216 ny- route 17m, new hampton, ny 10958, (845) 360-9821) where it was diagnosed that the brake vacuum pump was leaking oil. The vehicle was repaired and the vacuum pump was replaced. The manufacturer was contacted and stated that the vehicle did not qualify for the manufacturer's brake vacuum pump replacement because the mileage exceeded 72,000. The manufacturer provided case number: 95212761589. The failure mileage was 94,000.
I have been complaining of a braking issue since i purchased my truck in 2015 and have had them inspected at several chevy dealerships, stonebriar chevrolet n frisco, huffines chevrolet in lewisville.we have moved and i took into today and now that the truck is out of warranty i'm being told i have a faulty vacuum pump that could cause my brakes to fail.the dealer, peters chevrolet in longview, also states unforuntely he cannot see my service records to confirm the previous brake checks which is ridiculous. This is a known issue and gm is taking no accountability in this and demanding a change of $600 to replace.please help.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving at a low rate of speed, the brakes failed to operate without warning. The contact had to place the vehicle into park in order for the brakes to function properly. The contact took the vehicle to modern chevrolet of burlington (2616 alamance rd, burlington, nc 27215, 336-229-5501) where they replaced the vacuum pump and belt. The vehicle was repaired at the contact's expense. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they could not assist because the vin was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was 68,000.
When going down the road and coming to a stop or reversing the break pedal feels super stiff and turn makes a noise.i just put in 600 dollars on break job.
Additional brake pedal effort needed at low speeds. If truck is at idol and or in traffic brake pedal becomes extremely stiff and requires a tremendous amount of effort to stop.
Have not even had my chevy for a year and the brakes seized up causing the vehicle to not stop.noticed there has been some issues having it towed to a chevy dealership to see the cause of the problem, looks as if gm is aware of the problem, so don't know why i was not notified of this issue, could of been a very serious accident as i travel on the freeway at high speeds.
Eps failure that has a recall. While driving on the street, the steering locked up. There's also a recall on the brakes.
Noticed failure of vehicle to stop. Lack of power assist braking at slow speeds. Brake pedal is rock hard with little to zero travel (1/4' at most). Vehicle will continue to move (regardless of pressure applied to brake pedal) for several feet. While this has occurred in both forward and reverse gears; the issue is consistently observed in reverse.
Brakes failed exactly as described in nov 26 consumer report article and exactly as currently being investigated by nhtsa. Brakes failed while in motion at our local transfer station (dump) while turning- backing up and pulling forward.brakes failed when the trucks rpm fell below 800 rpm and the vacuum assist failed. The vehicle was difficult to stop and i am a large man. Have copy of repair bill from dealer dated 10/03/18.dealer was familiar with the issues and had serviced other chevrolet vehicles with the same problem.contacted chevrolet div/gm.made a call, send and -mail and wrote a letter.no response to letter or e-mail asking for a refund.received a call in response to my call.chev rep stated they had no knowledge of the problem.?? told the caller than only need to check the internet to find many complaints.consumer reports that only 111 complaints have been received.i strongly suggest there are many more.i suspect the number of complaints will increase not that the "cat is out of the bag" so to speak.please insist on a recall i think it will save lives.no need to wait until someone dies.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 80 mph, the brakes failed to stop the vehicle when the brake pedal was depressed. The contact had to use both feet to apply pressure to the accelerator pedal to stop the vehicle. In addition, the service brake warning indicator illuminated. The contact was able to drive the vehicle to bob ruwart motor (2105 16th st, whatland, wy 82201, (307) 269-0091), but it was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 41,000.
While driving in stop and go traffic the vacuum power assist for the brakes failed multiple times making it much more difficult to brake and stop the vehicle before colliding with the car in front of me.this happened while driving on city streets.a vehicle warning message appeared in the drivers information display stating service brake system.the message went away after sustained continuous driving without braking when the vacuum system was able to recover.
During stop and go traffic or repeated braking applications my truck loses braking power. Seems to be a vacuum issue. Almost had a collision in a parking deck.
I went to back out my driveway at low speeds and the brakes did not apply. I put it in drive and applied the brakes and they failed again. I applied the gas and went on my way the brakes seemed to work fine. But from idle to slow speeds (1-10 mph) the brakes fail and i have to press the brake as hard as i can or it will continue to roll. Have dodged several cars at red lights.
When driving at low speeds it hard to stop,the brake get hard and the vehicle is harder to stop.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact received a notification of nhtsa campaign number: 19v645000(service brakes, hydraulic). The vehicle was taken to jim falk motors of maui 260 hana hwy, kahului, hi 96732 for the recall repair. The dealer was contacted and informed of the failures. The contact was informed that the vehicle operated as intended. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 55,268. *dtwhen the vehicle was taken in for the recall, the abs & esc light was already illuminated. The message of, "service stability trak" is still displayed. When we called jim falk motors of the illuminated light and message, "they told me that it should illuminate, according to the attached recall.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While attempting to park the vehicle, the brake pedal became very difficult to depress before the vehicle stopped. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to valley gmc buick (7500 145th st w, apple valley, mn 55124) to be diagnosed, but the failure could not be replicated. The contact was advised by the service advisor that unless they were able to replicate the failure, they were not going to repair the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 67,000.
Have been parking or backing out of parking spaces and brake hardens and locks while vehicle is moving. Has also happened while stuck in slow traffic. This has happened multiple times on different days.
When parking vehicle in parking garage having to use the brakes three or more times to get in parking spot. The brake pedal is very hard to press. 59,010 miles
Brakes worked great during three hour drive until i put the vehicle in reverse. The rpms dropped and while i was backing up i had to use both feet to stop in time before hitting a parked vehicle. This problem needs to be fixed asap and there are many forum reviews of the same issue
Brakes seem nonexistent at low speeds. Hard brake pedal and does not feel like its going to stop
My brakes failed to work when i was pulling into my parking lot.it seems to happen intermittently and only at low speeds. The brakes worked again later in the day. I took the vehicle in to the dealership i purchased it from (river view chevrolet in mckeesport pa) and they said they did extensive test but could not recreate the issue and could not find a problem that would caused the brakes to not work.
At low speeds and or starting from a stop and reapplying the brakes the brake pedal gets extremely hard and will not hold the vehicle from rolling forward. You must press the brake pedal as hard as you can with both feet to try to keep the vehicle stopped. I have to put the vehicle in neutral at each stop. Each occurrence has happened on a city street.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at low speeds, the vehicle had experienced hard braking which caused the brake pedal to extend to the floorboard and the braking distance to be extended. The cause of the failure was not determined. The manufacturer and local dealer mauer chevrolet located at 1055 hwy 110 inver grove, mn, (651)456-6283, were notified of the failure. The contact indicated that the vehicle was previously serviced under the nhtsa campaign number: 19v645000 (service brakes, hydraulic) however, the failure recurred. The failure mileage was 165,000.
Truck has issues stopping at slow speeds.extreme pedal pressure is required to stop the vehicle.when towing, and attempting to back up a trailer, the pressure required on the pedal makes maneuvering extremely difficult to control and unsafe.brakes are a vital piece of equipment, and are needed to safely operate a vehicle in today's driving environments.i had this looked at by a dealer's service department.they informed me of a recall and said they "adjusted the sensor", but that has not corrected the issue.
While driving on the highway approx 40 mph, traffic in front of me stopped suddenly and i applied as much force on the brake pedal as i was physically able to.the truck began slowing but not nearly fast enough and i collided with the vehicle in front of me.the brake performance seems to have declined over time and i was unable to stop in time to avoid the accident.there appeared to be plenty of room to stop but the truck did not perform as expected.i am reporting because i read an article regarding a probe into issues with the brakes on the year truck that i own.at the time i did not think too much about it but now i believe that this braking issue may have directly resulted in the collision.
Brake pedal becomes hard to press when frequently stopping, such as backing up a trailer or in stop & go traffic.this has nearly caused me to have an accident more than once.it is becoming progressively worse and more frequent there are no fault indicators or codes displayed. It will start working again and then start randomly in traffic.
Losing breaks at low speed, there was a recall in canada for this issue
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 55 mph, the brakes failed to work when the brake pedal was depressed. The contact had to stand on the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. The contact was able to pull the vehicle over to the shoulder. The dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 61,000.
Loss of braking at idle speed brought t ok desler ghey replaced multiple components extended warranty covered all but $100
The truck shakes at speeds offrom 35 mph, then it stops and when driving on the highway at speeds between 60 and 70 on the thruway it shakes again. The vibration is transferred through the gas pedel and into the seats and console. Also when brakeing it shakes. Its been in for service several times for this since i bought it. Also the voltage meter drops and i lose dash board lights.this happens while the vehicle was in motion on both city and highway driving. I'm tired of loseing valuable days off to drive up to denooyer chevy in albany to have them look at this again. The truck travels straight and true but shakes at those speeds, sometime it makes a drowning sound as it happens.its in the front end part of the suspension i believe. The tires were all high speed balanced and air is perfect in all 4 tires. Has anyone experienced this?
Brakes become difficult to operate and/or inoperable on 2015 chevy silverado 1500. Typically occurs at low speeds when parking. This has happened numerous times over the years. This has caused me to back into a parked vehicle and has caused many near disasters when positioning the camper. I have just received a notice from gm that they have acknowledged the problem, but are not taking full responsibility. They are offering to make some repairs under a "special coverage program," which excludes my vehicle due to mileage. This should be a full and complete recall for all vehicles effected.
Recall on braking system, reported to gm dealer, waited, drove vehicle while still on recall, dealership quoted that it will be okay, ( travel to med appointments) after several attempts, finally got it in, (its fixed), continued driving it, still having problems with braking, the pedal was jumping, oh! that's normal stated the technician, i continued driving, i called the dealer ship i bought the truck from, new in 2015, explained explain to them the problem im having, (said well bring it to the dealer ship near you, did that!) again nowhere, called the dealership and asked if they would look at it, well bring it in, tech took for a ride, that's what they normally do, vibrate like that , yah. Well frustrated as i was we continued to drive, to my med appointments, well, coming back stop at an establishment, as we were pulling in the truck wouldn't stop!, and i slid right into a mental pole, damaging the entire front of our truck, the force of the hit lunged both i and my wife forward at an abrupt stop! my wife sustain a neck and back injury, my left shoulder, report to ins, and property owner, my ins pay out for the damage. I reported this to the dealer ship, we'll have to schedule an appointment.
At a low speed coming into my carport the brakes had a hard pedal and would not stop. This has happened on two occasions. 5-27-2017 and again while backing up to my lawn mower tailor on 5-29-2017 . Not sure what the problem is but you could not press pedal down at all. ?????
Drivingnewly purchased 2015 chevy silverado 1500 at 35-45 mph on freeway (which has a 65 mph speed limit). Traffic ahead was slowing down, and the brakes were pressed, speed was reduced, but when the cars in front (with at least 5 car lengths of space ) suddenly stopped, and i slammed the brakes, the brakes failed. I tried and tried pressing the brakes, but the truck didn't stop, and i rear-ended the vehicle in front of me, which ended up rearing the vehicle ahead of it, and so forth. Due to the brakes not responding, i was unable to stop like the rest of traffic, and thus, caused an accident. (note: the weather and road conditions were fine, not went road, as stated on police report.)
When travelling at low speeds, the brake pedal pushes all the way to the floor and does not fully stop the vehicle. On 3 occasions now, i have had problems stopping the truck while parking, coming very close to hitting another vehicle.
There was a recall on the brake pressure when vehicle was moving slow. I had the recall corrected/completed; however, it still has the problem. So their solution isn't fixing the problem. When you are driving at a slower speed and apply the brakes it feels like the go out and the vehicle doesn't stop. You have to press brakes really hard.
Sudden loss of brakes while slow speed maneuvers such as turning and parking. Brakes either become very hard to depress or depress to floor. Very dangerous! chevrolet has a tsb out because it is a known issue but has yet to be recalled. Most likely due to the expense related to the repair.$1500. Please address. Please reference chevrolet's technical service bulletin (pit5361b) for more information.
Brake pedal gets hard, and brakes are not working, it seems to happen more frequently. Usually at low speed, and it has made it interesting at parking lots, or stop & go traffic, and parking in our driveway. We have checked everything, and couldn't find anything wrong. Googled the symptoms, amd it appears this is happening to more chevrolet silverados than mine, and the tech's say it's a brake booster pump issue. I think chevrolet need to fix this issue, since it's happening to several trucks, it's not just a flawed pump, but more likely a pump weekness overall.happened first time a year ago, when in a ferry lane, and the speed was walking speed, and we barely managed to stop before we hit the car in front of us.
I 'am having trouble with my brake pedal getting hard when i come to a stop or when parking , at a stop sign , anytime i 'am at a stand still the pedal will get hard on me. This is a safety hazzard to me because if your not paying attention you could hit the car in front of you or behind you.this happens all the time !!!
2015 chevrolet silverado. Consumer writes in regards to brake failure safety recall. *ldthe consumer stated the vehicle was in a minor fender bender due to the brakes failing. The consumer also owns another vehicle with the same failure.
When braking frequently in a parking lot or at low speeds the stopping power gets worse and almost will not stop the vehicle.i have 86,760 miles on my truck currently but this has done it since 20,000 miles and since then off and on.
Vehicle in motion on city street, abs light came on sporadically. While abs light was on, braking system would engage. Two days after incident, abs shows constant, all the time, abs brakes randomly engage.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving approximately 30 mph and approaching a red light, the brake pedal was depressed, but felt very hard. The contact had to pump the brake pedal several times to stop the vehicle. The contact stated that the brake failure occurred for the past two months on a daily basis. The contact also stated that the headlight assemblies were fractured and caused the headlights to be very dim. The contact drove the vehicle to jud kuhn chevrolet (3740 hwy 9 e, little river, sc 29566) and they offered to repair the headlight assemblies; however, the contact would have to pay half of the repair cost. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 65,216.
In december 2018 while in a parking lot at low speed, brakes were applied. Brake pedal went about halfway then became "hard." there was no braking power and brakes would not work. This was associated with a "clicking" noise. When car rolled to a stop i started moving again and reapplied the brakes. Same result both in forward and reverse. This happened again in a parking lot on april 11, 2017. My vehicle currently has 83,000 miles. Took it to a chevrolet dealer and they stated the issue was the vacuum pump and recommended repairs according to their pit5361d. However they stated that gm recently published that they would only warranty the fix up to 72,000 miles. I have not had the repair completed yet.
I have a 2015 silverado 1500 5.3 with about 90k miles. While i was parallel parking, after the 2nd pump, i realized the truck wasnt stopping. I had to use both legs to make it stop before hitting the car in the back of me and almost crushing a pedestrian. My brake pads and rotors are fine. I do hear an abnormal noise coming from the engine area at all times. Kinda like a bad pulley bearing or something. Noticed it the day the truck started acting up. I looked online on mutiple websites and understand this is a common problem with the vacuum pump, brake booster and master cylinder. This should be a safety recall.
While driving into town from a weekend trip, when trying to stop for a red light from the highway, the brake pedal immediately became stiff and wouldn't slow the vehicle. It required both feet pressing down hard on the pedal in order to stop the vehicle in time. After turning off the truck and restarting it, the brake pedal released its pressure and i was able to drive normally. However, when coming to a stop to back into my garage, the brake pedal again, was under pressure, and would not stop my vehicle unless excessive force was applied. I was able to stop the vehicle, just feet from the wall in the alley. I believe this is a major safety concern. Luckily, i didn't have any issues while going 75 mph on the highway, or i probably wouldn't be able to write this. I was able to get the vehicle towed to my local chevrolet dealership and was told they the vacuum pump was the cause of this issue. After having to shell out more than $700 on a part for a truck that's a 2015 with 63,000 miles with no other issues, is ridiculous. This is a major safety concern while operating the vehicle, and it should be covered by chevrolet. This isn't a part that should fail on the vehicle.
Brake pedal gets very hard while in traffic especially while towing a trailer.dealer initially couldn't find an issue but eventually replaced the brake vacuum pump, it got better but still intermittently does it. When it happens you have to stand on the pedal with everything i have to get the truck to stop.
My truck has been modififed by either a powerful entity or by the dealership itself at the direction of a powerful entity.truck has so many problems.i bought from same dealership out of show room and trusted them.after accident, air bags did not deploy and i couldnt figure out why.see burn marks around edges of airbags along with conductive string sew into them.also noticed extra conductors added along with extra insulator layer.cigarette outlets all manipulated after replaced with higher output plugs.also found air bag sensors which are discontinuted as they belong to trucks from 2007-2009.frame is for a 1ton truck which has beengreased front to back.axels are clearly older and are labeled for a ck2500 (1 tom) modeldrive shaft and many other components have markings throughout to establish path of least resistance to guide short of electricity to driver to shock me.modles modfified to gain access to truck.i am lucky to be alive.you guys have to see this truck in person.way too uch to list.dealership had it long time to do repairs.when taken back to them to figure out hwy the loud shakes, the dealershp certified shop tech stated everything is perfectl normal.that wa s alie.eewwdduuuuuuuuuuuuuefu
At low speeds the brake assist does not work, and there is a momentary loss of brakes.
Front brakes on left side stick and wear unevenly and rapidly. I have had front brakes replaced twice with 80% pad life on right side by midas. Midas stated that there is a service advisory to replace the left side piston/caliper and a new hose which is larger allowing the brakes to release properly.
Hard braking at low speeds.brake pedal becomes hard and truck hard to stop.possible brake booster defect.attempting to park in parking stall, had to put truck in n to stop.commuting to work in traffic at low speed and pedal becomes hard, truck hard to stop.
At low speeds with the brake pedal pushed in the truck still rolls. On three occasions over the last 6 months this has happened and almost caused multiple wrecks. Once was in the mountains, once was turning on a curve, once was on a straight flat black top.
Brake failure at low speed. While sitting in stop and go traffic, the brake pedal reacts as if the vehicle isn't running. Pedal seems high and hard then soft and low. Vehicle will stop with extreme pressure on pedal.
When driving truck on a busy road the warning sign of (service stabilitrak) pops up on dashboard and lights would flicker turning on and off as the truck would also seem to turn off and quickly back on regaining electric power. When reversing it started locking the steering wheel and the (service stabilitrak) warning sign would pop up. Truck was taken to dealership twice for recalls and they said problem was corrected and now it's there for the third time as we speak. When i parked in my driveway i was able to record the incident and video was sent to dealership mechanic. Last sunday as i headed out to buy dinner, my vehicle seemed to be running fine. I noticed the dashboard lights flickered twice and that was it. When i was approximately 25 miles from my residence (service stabilitrak) warning popped on dashboard and truck completely turned off locking my brakes loosing complete control of the vehicle and it went on its own into a busy intersection going downhill.steering wheel and brake was locked loosing all electrical and driving control. It would not turn, it would not do any changes. My truck ended up bumping into a sidewalk, i was terrified as i almost lost my life. Shaking in fear i tried to restart my truck and it did turn on. I went inside the shopping center parking lot, parked and called aaa so my vehicle could be towed to our nearest dealership. We had an appointment at the dealership for tuesday due to negative reviews and they were going to look at ourvehicle again. However, i never expected that i would almost loose my life. It's the third time it's been seen and i fear it will be the same scenario. I cannot put my family's life at risk. The truck is currently at the dealership being serviced. I will not be driving this vehicle unless i have been given proof that they fixed the issue. I have documentation for proof.
When traveling at low speeds after truck had been in use for 2.5 hours, brake pedal would suddenly become very hard to depress and brakes would not stop vehicle for approximately 5 feet.condition present in both drive and reverse.happened on 4 occasions, all after 2.5 hour trips.mechanic has found defective brake vacuum pump and brake booster after researching the issue and finding out that this is a common problem.
Brake system fails at low idle speed. When truck is put in gear the brake pedal becomes stiff and vehicle cannot stop. Brake pedal also does this in stop and go traffic. Chevrolet says this is not a safety issue. How is this not a safety issue? the problem is a mechanical pump called a power brake booster pump. We were told this can be replaced for $1100 and is not a warranted part. The only way to keep brake pressure at low speed is to hold your foot on the brake pedal and give vehicle gas to increase the rpm's. How is this safe?
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving at low speeds, the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard and the braking distance was extended. The vehicle was taken to sun rise chevrolet gmc (1800 covington pike, memphis, tn) where the brake module was reprogrammed; however, the failure worsened. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who indicated that the brake vacuum pump was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 69,000.
The truck is intermittently hard to stop, i believe it is losing vacuum.i've had a mechanic look at the truck and they cannot find anything wrong.this is intermittent and i'm scared to drive the truck.this only seems to happen at low rpm.i believe this should be investigated because the issue could cause an accident.i'm a 235 pound male and i believe a smaller person would have even more trouble stopping with the sudden loss of vacuum.i read in a forum that others are having the same issue and i should file a complaint.had it not been for the article that mentioned the nhtsa i would have never filed a complaint.i have to think there are others dealing with this issue and aren't sure where to turn or report the issue.please help.
I was parking my truck in a parking lot space, and when the truck was moving slow, i applied the brakes, and had to push very hard on the brake pedal to get the truck to stop. I had a local dealership run a diagnostic on the truck, and it came up as a faulty brake vacuum pump.
Front brakes completely worn at 12,000 miles. Dealer replaced rotors and pads free of charge.vehicle now has 20,000 miles on it, and front pads are worn prematurely again.
At low speeds while in motion either in traffic, driveways or parking lots the power brakes would stop working causing the truck to not brake properly.the brake pedal became very stiff and would not stop.while this did not cause any accidents, it was a near miss on several occasions.i took it to the chevrolet dealer where they said the brake "vacuum pump has failed".they stated it was not covered under warranty and would cost $700.89.the pump was replacedon 11/28/2018, with no occurances of this issue since.the truck had 59,108 miles on it at the time of vacuum pump replacement.the first brake issue was around 50,000 miles and happened about 8-10 times between june and november 2018.
Multiple times at low speeds, usually parking or in stop and go traffic, i lose all braking power. It's terrifying when it happens. I have to put my full body weight (i'm a 200lb male) on the brake pedal and i mean i barely can bring it to a stop. Luckily i haven't hit anything in the time it took from the first occurrence of the problem until i could afford to get it fixed. The problem was figured out to be a bad vacuum pump. From what i can tell online, this seems to be a very widespread issue with not many owners reporting their problems. This is very dangerous, i couldn't imagine that happening at high speed, as reported by others. It's almost impossible to stop the vehicle when the brakes do that. Just trying to help prevent serious accidents.
Brakes become extremely hard and have to push down with big feet to stop.
I was backing into a parking stall the the brakes failed again!brake pedal was solid and would not depress to slow the truck to a stop.only after extreme pedal pressure was there any braking action, but only slight.because of this i hit the wall behind the truck.if someone was there, i would not have been able to stop.gm/chevrolet have a service bulletin out on this issue.an internet search came back with 312,000 results.i've talked to my selling chevrolet dealer and they reluctant to deal with it.does somebody need to die before something is done.this is the 4th or 5th time my brakes have failed.
When pumping my brakes for traffic, backing out of driveway or driving in general etc., brakes will fail and my truck keeps rolling. Not safe what so ever as i am stomping on the brakes as hard as i can and the truck will not stop. Please fix this issue by contacting chevrolet for a recall. This has happened to multiple friends and family with this truck model and year. It is a problem and gm needs to know about it before somebody gets killed for brake failure. Truck is not even past 40,000 miles!!!
Brake pedal becomes very hard and brakes ineffective if the pedal is pushed and released at idle.brake do not start working properly again until the accelerator has been pressed."service brake assist" message is displayed on the diagnostics screen.definitely a problem with the vacuum pump.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at 5 mph, when attempting to depress the brake pedal it became extremely hard and went to the floorboard making the vehicle unable to stop. The contact referenced nhtsa campaign number: 16v069000 (service brakes, hydraulic) but the vin was not included. The vehicle was taken to a dealer (matt bowers chevrolet metairie located at 8213 airline dr, metairie, la 70003) but the failure was unable to be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. On another occasion, when the contacts husband was driving at approximately 5 mph and attempted to depress the brake pedal, it failed to slow the vehicle down and rear ended another vehicle in front. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was filed and there were no injuries reported. The contact mentioned that a loaner was provided due to her husband driving 114 miles per day for work. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000. *ln *tp
Power brakes fail at low speed requiring more pressure to come to a complete stop. Occurred multiple times i while parking or idle speeds.
At low speeds, applying the brake causes the pedal to become stiff and lock up and not work
I was going through a drive through restaurant, stopping and starting with cars in front of me. When i tried to stop the brake pedal became very hard to push and vehicle didn't want to stop. I shut off the vehicle and restarted. The brakes reverted back to normal.had i not been going moving slowly this default would have caused an accident.
My truck brakes normally except when i stopped, then at low speed the truck fails to stop. I've almost gotten into multiple accidents (hitting walls, poles, a bus) and its even worse going downhill. It takes both feet and all my weight to get the truck to stop. Eventually someone is going to get into a bad accident because of this issue. Happens when going forward and reverse. I've read several articles about it on the internet and i've talked with gm techs and it's a bad problem with the vacuum pump. Please help!!!!
Loss of power brakes at low speed when backing into parking spot.4 occurrences since october 2018 under exact same circumstances, checked by dealer, no work done but tac case opened.
Break system failing. It happens time to time when at slow speeds. Mostly when trying to slow vehicle ot a stop at a low speed. Requires bodyweight pressure to stop the vehicle. It still feels like its slipping to a stop. This is happens when in reverse and forward.
After a 300 mile drive the brakes all but failed when attempting to back into a parking spot.the pedal was stiff feeling and required significant pressure to stop.going forward seemed to be normal then when i backed up again it was bad.this has occurred a few times now.the latest was just before christmas, waiting in line for a drive thru pickup and after 20 mins when we moved forward the vehicle was very difficult to stop.
Braking is very difficult when at low speeds to stop, it is nearly impossible. I have had many very close accidents where i have almost hit other vehicles due to not being able to stop properly.it is my understanding that this issue is due to the brake vacuum assist pump.this needs a recall!
I have a 2015 1500 silverado and it is having brake issues.the peddle becomes hard to depress and the truck will not come to a stop.i have noticed this several times coming to a stop at low idle on the street.i dropped it off at the dealership only for them to tell me it would be $1100 and gm did not have a recall on it.they said the vacuum pump and several other things would need to be replaced in order to fix this.
When backing down a steep incline, there is a complete loss of power brakes.i can barely stop the vehicle when backing down my driveway.this will be a safety issue when i back a boat into water.the dealer advised replacing the vacuum pump and hose with new design.
Catalytic converter failed with less than 80,000 miles. The truck was taken to dealership, denooyer chevrolet, from which it had been bought new and by which it had always been serviced to remedy the check engine light prior to 80,000 miles with authorization to perform any diagnostic and remediation covered under warranty. Dealer did not make repair and advised it would cost me hundreds of dollars to even find out what was wrong. I now have taken the truck to a separate shop for diagnosis and was told a catalytic converter has gone bad. However,i am now slightly at 89,000 miles. Dealer is saying warranty on catalytic converts expired at 80,000 miles.front brake rotors warped within the first year of ownership.a/c cooling coil cracked under 80,000 miles as well due to a faulty part, and apparently that warranty expired at 30,000 miles.
Having issues with braking at slow speeds, specifically during backing up. When i took my truck into the dealer for routine oil change i had them look at the braking problem and was told my brake vacuum pump is going bad. I saw an article about this same issue being under investigation for possible recall and wanted to make sure my voice was heard.
Unexpected total loss of braking while baking up, then hard brake pedal with no travel going forward.i was at a complete stop put vehicle in reverse to back trailer in and all of a sudden brake was completely hard with not pedal travel extremely hard pressing on brake cause extremely marginal stopping power vehicle slowed slightly.
When traveling in stop and go traffic, the brake pedal gets very hard and you can not stop the vehicle. This happened to me 3 times too many, i had the vehicle towed to the dealership, $709.00 later, they supposedly replaced the vacuum pump. Dealer stated they have had other vehicles brought in for the same reason. This is a serious problem.
Very stiff brake pedal while trying to park at slow speeds. Could not press the pedal hard enough to stop the vehicle while i was backing into my parking spot. This is very dangerous as there are pedestrians and other vehicles in the parking lot. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle. It also happened when i backed into my parking space when i returned home.
Vacuum pump on 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 went out while driving on highway on july 8, 2018.applied brakes and they were hard and would not depress.they eventually started to work so i was able to stop.this occurred off and on for over two weeks, usually at slower speeds, until i was able to getthem fixed on july 24, 2018.see repair order.i wanted to file this because i saw the nhtsa was investigating faulty brake vacuum pumps and mine was not repaired at a chevrolet dealer.
I've noticed a big decrees in breaking performance in the past month doubling the distance it takes to completely stop and it's almost caused me to rear end a few people.
On two occasions in the past week my brake pedal has become extremely stiff at low speeds and caused the brakes to fail. The first incident occurred as i approached a stop sign on a busy city street. My brake pedal became stiff and the brakes would not stop the vehicle. Causing me to roll into the path of another vehicle. I managed to stop and the other vehicle avoided me.the second incident occurred this morning as i backed into my drive way. As i attempted to stop my pedal became stiff and the brakes would not function properly.despite stand on the brake pedal i was unable to stop my vehicle before it struck my utility trailer. Thankfully no damaged occurred. I contacted the parts department at mission chevrolet in el paso, texas and was advised the part is in heavy demand and will be unavailable for 7 to 10 business days.
I was pulling into a parking spot and when pressing the brake pedal to stop it got really hard, had no brake pressure to stop, thankfully i had no concrete barriers or light posts in front of me to cause any damage just grass on a hill to help me stop. Second time this happened i was backing up to my garage that was on a slight hill and the brakes got hard but i was able to stop by putting the truck in park and using my emergency brake. Third time i was driving down the highway going approximately 65mph as i was slowing down to get off of an exit i noticed my brake started to get hard thank goodness i have a tow haul botton and i used that to help me slow down to get off the exit. Everytime my brakes have gotten hard is when i have to back down a hill, pull down a hill, park in a parking spot or have to press the brakes constantly toslow down.
I was entering a structure parking at low speed when i needed to stop to give the right of way for cross traffic , at this time i proceeded to put my foot on the brake and the brake would not allow me to stop. (the brake pedal became stiff and it would not allow me to press it down). Luckily i did not strike the vehicle crossing and at this point i was using my emergency brake. I further realized my truck was no longer stopping on demand, but more of rolling to a stop. I contacted a local dealer and they said they couldn't help me because they were busy which i think is unaccepatable i would have towait over a week to take my truck in forthis service. Brake failure should be a priority for any automotive dealer.my truck has about 33500 miles and i have maintained and serviced it properly.
Truck has 62k. Truck will not stop at low speeds. Could easily back into and or over something or someone very easily. More frequent when at low speeds and while backing up. I almost backed into a roll up door before slamming on the parking brake. Took truck into dealership and was told that the vacuum pump, vacuum belt and hose from vacuum pump to brake booster needed to be changed. This is not a warranty fix.
While braking at low speeds the vehicle loses power assist to the braking system making it hard to stop. Most times i have been in a parking lot parking, however i was in baltimore city traffic last week and the problem happened. Kinda scary. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The brake system fails when operating at extremely slow speeds (i.e., at drive throughs and while parking). Brake pedal becomes rigid and difficult to engage. When engaging the foot break the vehicle continues to roll and is unresponsive resulting in the vehicle to continue moving. Service appointment is scheduled for 7/14/21 at a certified chevrolet dealer/service provider.
When traveling in low speeds, usually in reverse, i have to increase my break pedal effort and press really hard to stop the truck.this does not happen every time i drive it but it does happen often.
I own a 2015 silverado high country with 73k miles. Over the past month or so - when backing into a parking garage spot at work, i have lost most of the braking power. The brakes felt really hard and felt like it was all the way to the floor. I was able to stop the truck by pressing the brake pedal hard real hard several times in order to stop safely with out running into the retaining wall. This issue has happened several times when pulling into my driveway or a parking spot at a grocery store. I almost bumped a car in front of me in a parking lot spot and decided to start parking out further to keep from hitting any other vehicles. At my most recent oil change, i received a report that my brakes were all "good" based on the service tech's inspection. This is a really dangerous situation that needs to have a recall placed to gm to get this issue fixed on all affected trucks.
Loss of braking power. Hard, stiff brake pedal typically occurs at slower speeds or while repeated braking in a short time frame. This has happened sporadically over the lifetime of the truck.
Brake assist is on and hard to stop my truck
I lose the power brakes if i touch the pedal at low speed more than a couple of times. It happens frequently while driving in bumper to bumper traffic and when backing into a parking spot. It is a complete loss of the power brakes and ir barely stops.
When i go slow the break pedal get so hardi can stop
At time when driving slowly the brakes feel hard which makes it hard to stop
2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. Consumer writes in regards to power steering. *ldthe consumer stated abs system and stabilitrak light illuminated. The consumer was made aware of a recall concerning the steering failure after having the vehicle repaired. The consumer requested to be reimbursed for the repairs.
Several times commuting in to work, wife said brakes felt funny, hard to stop. I would drive and have no problems, then it finally happened to me in at a busy intersection. Tried to stop but truck kept rolling, lost braking power and the truck slid forward. Managed to stop but happened again two days later and it happened at a higher speed. Brake pedal goes real stiff when in stop and go traffic and it is hard for the truck to stop. Going approximately 20 mph, the car in front slows down to turn. I applied brakes and the truck was hard to stop. The brake pedal went stiff as i was pushing down hard. The truck felt like it was slowing down but barely. I almost hit the car before it turned. I took the vehicle to the dealership and they diagnosed the problem as the brake booster vacuum pump andpipe. I called the corporate office and told them that i am having a safety issue. They said that it was not a defect or real safety issue. They said that the truck was out of warranty. It only has 61,156 miles on it as of 9 july 2018. The first time the issue occurred was in may 2018. At that time i had about 59,000+ miles on the vehicle. There are several complaints regarding this issue. A couple of certified mechanics stated that this part should last much longer than it has. I would like to start a class action lawsuit. Service bulletin #pit5361.
Unexpected and intermittent loss of power brakes. Evident at slow speed (when backing). First application is normal, second brake application is power assist is reduced by half, third brake application has no power brake assist. Safety hazard when backing as unexpected loss of assist can damage equipment and cause injury.
Noticed hard brake pedal on top when stopping.dealer tech said brake vacuum assist pump needs replacing. Less than 75,000 miles -not covered by warranty
Breaks stop working at low speeds. Stop and go traffic, parking, stopping for people, stop signs, traffic lights. Breaks go down half way then get hard to push.
My truck is showing signs of the defective vacuum pump. Problem was sparatic and noticed it shortly after purchasing the truck with 95,000 miles on it. Now at 105,000 miles it started happening more frequently so i researched it. Randomly at slow speeds like pulling into a parking spot or my driveway or easing up at a stop light in traffic the brakes lose all power assist. It feels like the abs is kicking in and the truck just keeps rolling. It takes about all the force you can give to get the truck to stop. Will be bringing the truck into chevy this weekend. Was hoping for a recall before i had to dish out the money since it does seem to be an extremely unsafe premature brake system failure with no warning until the truck does not stop.
Went to go use my brakes and noticed they got really hard and almost hit someone. I towed it to the dealership and they said it was a faulty vacuum pump, belt, etc..i had asked if this was recalled they said no .told me it was going to be 1600 to fix. I went home and did a little research apparently this is an issue. 2015 chevy 1500 65k miles
Was pulling into a parking stall slowly and truck would not stop when applying the brake pedal. Brake pedal was very hard to press and used both feet to press on the pedal to eventually make the truck come to a stop. Caused a minor (cosmetic) scrape on passenger side front bumper (scraped concrete wall) due to the inability to stop when brake were being pressed.
Brake pedal always harder than normal brakes. Gets worse at low speeds to the point of having little to no breaks at all
Brake pedal too hard..sometimes dont brake have to put both feet to brake
We were driving in sevierville, tn in very busy tourist traffic going about 25 mph with 2 babies in the back and pulling a trailer with a polaris ranger. When i went to hit the brakes, there was no movement of the brake pedal. I couldn't press it in unless i used 2 feet and applied hard pressure. Once the brakes were pushed all the way in, it used enough brake to come to a stop. The mechanic said we need a new vacuum pump and brake pads. This could have been much worse if we would have made it to the interstate.
While moving in stop and go traffic brake pedal becomes hard and vehicle will not stop.
The vehicle braking system become rigid at low speed (approx 3mph or so) as if the power brake system fails. The vehicles stopping distance changes and the vehicle continues to roll while pressing the brake pedal toward the floor. This issue resulted in damage to my garage door while backing the vehicle into the driveway. The issue is best described in the pending investigation regarding the gm braking system located under chevrolet silverado recalls. I was made aware of the investigation after researching the issues i have had with my vehicles brakes. The investigation statement describes the issue as a problem with degrading brake vacuum component.
When at a slow rolling speed brakes are extremely hard to brake, mainly when in parking lots or backing my boat in the boat ramp its extremely scary and seems like the truck wont stop rolling. This is so unsafe and scary. Its almost like the brakes dont work. But im pretty sure its the vacuum pump brake system.
When driving at low speeds and the brake pedal is depressed a few times the brake pedal gets very stiff and will not come to a complete stop if needed immediately.
At low speed in a parking lot or in out of a parking spot the brake pedal intermittently becomes excessive and non-functioning. Vehicle needs to roll to a stop on its own. Once stopped and put into gear pedal functions again. This has now happened 4 times in the last 6 months.after doing a search online i see a number of other owners have reported this issue. Seems to be a bad vacuum pump. Wanted to report it as well hoping it will lead to a safety recall.
Vacuum pump. My vacuum pump went out as i was driving home on the highway. Every few presses of the brake pedal it would go all the way to the floor and it took much longer to stop. It was scary and i am very thankful i didn't get in a wreck. I got it fixed at my chevrolet dealer. The cost for repair was $600. Worst part is my vehicle, a 2015, ony had 27,000 miles on it. Still feels new and the brakes failed.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 35 mph and approaching a traffic light, the vehicle failed to stop when the brake pedal was depressed. As a result, the contact rear ended another vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. There were no warning indicators illuminated. There were no injuries and a police report was filed. The contact called his insurance company and was informed to take the vehicle to a collision shop. The vehicle was repaired, but not diagnosed. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 19v645000 (service brakes, hydraulic) on october 22, 2019. The failure mileage was 85,000.
Brakes go out numerous times and it is hard to stop even when the brake pedal is pushed all the way down on the floor. This occurs on the roadways and parking lots in heavy traffic/ congested areas.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. After accelerating from a stop and attempting to brake, the vehicle failed to stop. The contact almost crashed into the rear of a police cruiser. The vehicle was taken to chris myers gmv dodge(27163 us-98, daphne, al 36526, (251) 621-8885) where it was diagnosed that new brakes were needed. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 32,382.
I was driving on the highway at 50 miles an hour during rush hour traffic, traffic began slowing down and as i went to push on the break, it was extremely hard. I could not push the break down at all, and my car would not slow down. I placed it in neutral and was pushing as hard as i could on the break with both feet. Finally, the truck began to slow down. I put me emergency lights on and crosses over 5 lanes of traffic, as i was in the carpool lane, to get off the highway. It was a very dangerous and scary situation.
Brake vacuum pump failed while on the freeway causing brake pedal to be unresponsive almost causing major accident. This is listed as under investigation. There was no warning or light. Brake pedal instantly became stiff and could not be pressed down. Chevrolet fixed this by replacing only the pump. It's recommended the vacuum lines and brake booster be replaced too due to potential oil leakage which states will cause pump to fail again. Chevy did not replace additional parts for me.
On several occasions the brakes stopped working correctly.the brake pedal became extremely difficult to push down and would not stop the truck within the normally expected stopping distance.most of the time the brakes worked perfectly fine - this issue seemed to happen randomly, but after it happened enough times i realized it was only happening at slow speeds.it happened to me in a couple parking lots, the drive-thru at mcdonalds, and while backing up a trailer.these incidents were separated by many months, with the brakes fine in between.it wasn't until i received the service bulletin letter from chevy that i fully realized what was going on.i immediately took the truck in for service and the technician was able to verify the problem. They replaced the vacuum pump and the brakes have been fine since. Chevy would not cover the cost because i was beyond their 72,000 mile limit (although the problem first started before i was at that mileage), so i paid $561 out of pocket to have the new pump installed.i feel this is a serious safety issue that should be addressed with a recall. I realized the seriousness of it the last time it happened to me which was when i was backing up the trailer for my kids boy scout troop and found myself unable to stop quickly.i had to leave thetrailer where i got it to stop instead of where we were trying to place it.
Power brakes stop working at low speeds. It seems the vacuum pump is failing. Sometimes at low speeds the brake pedal goes hard and requires alot of extra effort to stop. I almost ran into the rear of a car in a drive-thru.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving down a hill, the brakes failed and the vehicle slid before finally coming to a stop. The dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was 72,425.
My truck would brake normally except when i stopped, then at low speed the truck would fail to stop. I almost got into multiple accidents (hitting walls, poles, a bus) and was even worse going downhill. It took both feet and all my weight to get the truck to stop. My dealer said the vacuum pump was at 11psi when it should have been 27. Eventually someone is going to get into a bad accident because of this issue.
Hard brake pedal at low speeds. No recall on vin number. Recall with simular issues on same make/ model per dealership
While backing up when brakes are applied the pedal has very little travel and is hard to push down causing vehicle to continue backing with little stopping power or effect. This takes effect only when backing after restarting vehicle.system checked at firestone tire center and result indicated brake vacuum power was not working properly. This occurs almost daily when backing up.
Purchased used 2015 silverado ltz with 87k miles on 12/1/2018 from dealer. On 12/2/2018 while backing out of parking space for first time, brake pedal would only move 1/4 inch with great effort (80-100lbs effort), and only applied enough braking force to stop truck moving 2 mph over 5 or 6 feet. Was able to immediately recreate problem moving forward while under 5-6mph, each time taking roughly 10-12 feet to stop with great braking effort. Problem occurred again 12/3 after a short trip (3 miles, 40mph) while slowly backing into parking space. Put truck in drive and the brake problem persisted. Backed up again, problem persisted. Maximum braking force would not stop truck from rolling down 7% grade from dead stop. Maximum braking force will absolutely not stop truck in stop-and-go traffic when this problem occurs again. **** must drive in far right or left lane to ensure space to swerve into when brakes fail to avoid collision. ****extreme safety hazard - will cause accidents, injuries & property damage. This needs to be a recall asap.
While driving, the radio and all other electric components will go dark or quit working altogether, including the ac blower, compressor, headlights, etc.sometime i get the stabilitrack alert with 3 or 4 tones, which resets automatically.when waiting in a drive through line today, when i depress the brake pedal, it happens again.while waiting in line, i sometimes put the transmission in park.when i depress the brake, and move the transmission control into drive, it happens, and more frequently, the engine shuts off.when turning the wheel, the power steering seems to go out, making it almost impossible to turn the vehicle, all the while the stabilitrack alarm goes off, the headlights go dark, the ac shuts down, the dash display goes dark, the door locks cycle up and down, and the engine shuts down.today, it almost caused me not to negotiate turning from a major road into a parking lot.i lost all power to the steering, the engine shut down, and my brakes were non-existent.after reading other complaints on here, i decided i needed to tell my story.i received the recall notices, and have not ventured to the dealership for repairs, fearing exposure to the covid-19 virus.after reading everyone else's problems, and hearing that even the recall repairs do not fix the problem, i cannot help but wonder if there is more going on here than gm is willing to admit.i will not let my wife drive this vehicle, because if it happens to her, there is no way she can maneuver a stalled vehicle with no power steering and no brakes.so it looks i have the same story as others, and no real solution to my problem that the dealerships are willing to fix, or even admitting that there is a problem.
At low speeds the brake pedal intermittently gets hard and makes it difficult to stop. It seems like there is no power brakes. Usually happens when parking. This has happened about 5 times.
I applied the brakes firmly for a car stopping short unexpectedly on the highway.i released the brake for a second or two to allow room for the car behind me to stop in time.when i reapplied the brake the second time, there was little to no braking action.the pedal did not more and did not travel all the way to the floor.there was no power assist.i was able to recreate the problem later at low speed when there was no traffic.i brought the truck to the dealer who could find nothing wrong but replaced the brake vacuum pump.the condition has not re-occurred since the repair was made in may.i have included a copy of the service invoice.i am reporting this because i see on the news you are investigating brake issues.
While driving my family, i lost over 90% of my stopping power while exiting the highway on an off ramp. Luckily it happened when i had already slowed down off the ramp to get off the highway (and not just moments before while on the highway).after extreme caution and smart use of down-shifting and the emergency brake, i was able to slowly navigate into a parking lot that was really close to where the incident first happened. After having the truck towed to my dealer, the service department said it was a vacuum pump failure and replaced it (note that they offered no other explanation other than what failed and that it was fixed). The truck seems to be okay for now, but i am very concerned about my (and my family's) safety and overall reliability of this truck. Who's to say it won't happen again while i'm in a more high-speed situation?
Brakes became very hard when trying to stop at slow speeds. Have to apply very hard pressure to get truck to stop. Several very close calls running into another vehicle.
While driving the brake pedal pivot nut came loose and fell onto my foot, the brake pedal was then loose and moving back and forth.this is exact what is described in a gm recall 18278 brake pedal pivot nut, reference number: n182165530. Except that the recall did not cover this truck.
While in reverse backing up from parking spot with 2 lane traffic behind parking location, applied brakes and was unable to stop completely. Brakes went into what felt like anti lock and pumped while i was trying to stop. Second time coming to a stop at a stop sign, apply brakes and brake pushed back and was unable to fully stop
While backing into paved boat ramp at 1.5 to 2 mph brake pedal became very hard and had to press pedal as hard as i could in order to stop truck. "truck was on level ground and i was turning steering wheel slowly".i pulled out of ramp and problem repeated when brake pedal pressure was applied and removed and then reapplied. Problem continued to reoccur after trailer removed from truck and brake pedal pressure was applied and removed them reapplied. Truck was looked at by dyer chevrolet the next day. Chevrolet is aware of issue as tech heard my description and he stated there was a bulletin from gm on it but it was not recalled.after receiving estimate later that day from chevrolet i decided to take truck to another repair facility that estimated repair $500 cheaper than chevrolet dealer. Repairs were made following the gm bulletin and using gm parts from the chevy dealer for $1139 as opposed to dyer chevrolet wanting $1662 for a issue that needs to be recalled.a quick internet search indicates that many others are affected by the issue as well. It is my hope that you may be able to help as i am sure this will occur again as gm has not changed anything they have merely charged the customer to put a bandaid on a problem they engineered.the mechanic that ultimately repaired truck stated gm knows they have problem as they only used that booster pump on 2015. There is no way a 50000 mile truck should have this issue. Please see attached documents from chevrolet dealer that describe issue of mechanical failure of vacuum pump. How is it not a recall issue if vacuum pump may pump motor oil into brake booster? this should not happen and is not a normal wear and tear issue. This is a engineering failure. I look forward to helping any way i can to get this recalled. Contact me as needed.shame shame shame on gm
The trailer brake system light keeps coming on and i have never hooked up to a trailer that has brakes. This lights comes on sporadically. Concerned as i have heard that chevrolet uses too light of wire in their light trucks. The truck is in motion when this happens. It comes on in all driving conditions (city, freeway, highways, gravel roads...).
Brake assist keeps popping up on info screen.there's a delay in braking while parking and when climbing steep grades in 4 wheel drive.

Brake pedal in the truck will occasionally go to the floor when the truck is in reverse.the problem seems to happen more when backing a boat trailer down a ramp at a boat launch where the truck is at an angle.have lost brakes multiple times when doing that.fluid is full in the reservoir and the mechanical portion (brake pads, rotors, calipers) checked out as fine.
Lossof brake. Dealership says faulty vacuum advance told that i missed the special warranty period.brake petal is like stepping in rock and truck won't atop. Twice almost hit a car or a wall
Please see attached documents pertaining to vibration issues, emergency brake cable being cut and u-joints oozing grease. Also have numerous videos on the vibration issues like many others.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at 7 mph, the brakes pedal was depressed and failed to respond as the abs warning light illuminated. As a result, the contact was still going 7 mph and allowed the vehicle to stop on its own. The contact turned the vehicle off and restated the vehicle to resume normal operation.

The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 35,000.
When driving at a low speed while parking or in traffic, my brake pedal either gets very hard or very soft and feels as if though i have no braking power. It feels like they are trying to brake but don't have enough force to stop the vehicle. This has happened on numerous occasions, i have almost hit cars in traffic or cars in parking lots while parking because the brakes can not be fully engaged. I have replaced all my brakes and rotors and have had everything inspected and have been told it may be the vaccum pump on a car that has only 56k miles. This is a very serious safety concern that the dealer is refusing to recognize as faulty. I have had to use my parking brake just to get home. Now my car sits because it is unsafe to drive and the dealer quoted over 1700 to fix.
Check trailer wiring warning - while driving down the road at different speeds, weather, smooth versus rough roads, while pulling two different trailers, the truck indicates to check the wiring and 1 second later it indicated the trailer is connected.it may happen several times in a mile and then not occur for 50 miles.one time there was a message to check the brake controller.this happens each time i hook a trailer up to the truck.truck is at the dealer and they are saying there is nothing wrong with the truck.6 months ago when i pulled the same trailers with my 2012 chevy pickup, i did not have this concern.only started with the new truck.is a concern when the trailer brakes do not work during this time.this could be a serious problem when i tow my travel trailer again.
Vacum pump for brakes went out.when backing up or pulling forward at slow speeds the brake pedel stiffins up and doesnt stop the vehicle.
When taking a long, rather sharp turn on the highway, the vehicle was resisting against the turn making it difficult to maneuver the vehicle.at the same time, the brakes began to initiate when the pedal was stepped, but immediately became very hard and could barely slow or stop the vehicle.almost hit the vehicle in front due to the delay and difficulty in braking.
My vacuum pump on my 2015 high country silverado is going bad, is what the chevy dealer diagnosed after i explained how when i reverse specially it feels like my brakes are failing and then the peddle gets super hard. They said its not normal but how do you feel safe in my chevrolet truck if my brakes can suddenly go out?
Breaks will not catch . As i'm driving and trying to stop the truck will keep rolling . This is even when driving slow . The break pedal is hard . And will not stop. I took truck in for a recall on the break system but the light sensor is still on and breaks will not catch. This is going forward backward parked or going to light . Has been happening offand on for a month.
Brake system was not working properly when i drove at low speed. I ignored it once in july 2017. But i had same issue again on aug. 31 and sep 1 at the parking lot. I almost hit the car in front of me. I fixed my issue at chevy dealer, and they replaced vacuum pump. (~42000 miles on the truck)
I was driving to the store with my family everything fills fine when i get to the parking lot i try to stop and my truck just keep going i have to use the parking brake to stop the truck i drive around to make sure that happens because is a new truck it thas it again so now my truck is parked on my house because is not safe to drive
Brake vacuum pump failed which resulted in diminished braking performance. This was very dangerous as we were pulling a camper when it happened. Dealership replaced vacuum pump when vehicle was at 78260miles although condition started before that. We received a letter about reimbursement but it only applies to 72000 miles or 6 years. The repair cost us over $500.
The brakes loses pressure at low speeds. The pedal feels soft. There is no boost to the brake pedal. This makes breaking very difficult. There are no warning indicator lights on dash to notify of probem
Trailer not connect warning
Slow speed no brakes hard pedal.i just read about 100 complaints with the exact same issue. Why is there not a recall on this yet. I don't have $1200 to fix this.
The brakes will become very hard to press when they become hot. Driving at low speeds and in reverse, after the brakes are hot (highyway driving, then down to city traffic). Very dangerous if not aware of this issue.

Low speed brake issue-braking effort increased considerably and vehicle and caused become difficult to stop. While parking vehicle in private parking lot the brake pedal became very firm with no take up and took considerable effort to bring the vehicle to a stop. Immediately brought vehicle to mechanic who informed me that the problem was failing brake booster and that it is a common defect with this make model of vehicle.also informed me that the when the booster begins to fail can deposit contaminates in the oil system that can prematurely damage the engine.a internet search produced a long list of customer with similar vehicles describing their experience of similar issues.i called the local chevy dealer and they also informed me that is common issue but there were no recalls or manufacture announcements on the vehicle so they would not reimburse for the repair.i contacted gm and they logged my complaint gm case #[xxx] but they would be unable to offer any repair assistance at this time. Will repair vehicle at my own expense. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Just experienced brake failure while backing into parking space at low speed truck has just turned40,000 miles. Brake pedal was hard to depress as if the ignition was turned off. Not the case engine was running and brakes were applied with extreme pressure and finally was able to stop vehicle before i bounced off of curb. I understand chevrolet is aware of this and there is some class action law suits out there. A tsb has been issued but, from all the forums i have read this does not correct the problem. I will take into dealership as soon as possible if it don't kill me first. Help

Drove in the rain and through a couple small puddles and the electronic power steering went out leave me with no power steering
When driving truck on a busy road the warning sign of (service stabilitrak) pops up on dashboard and lights would flicker turning on and off as the truck would also seem to turn off and quickly back on regaining electric power. When reversing it started locking the steering wheel and the (service stabilitrak) warning sign would pop up. Truck was taken to dealership twice for recalls and they said problem was corrected and now it's there for the third time as we speak. When i parked in my driveway i was able to record the incident and video was sent to dealership mechanic. Last sunday as i headed out to buy dinner, my vehicle seemed to be running fine. I noticed the dashboard lights flickered twice and that was it. When i was approximately 25 miles from my residence (service stabilitrak) warning popped on dashboard and truck completely turned off locking my brakes loosing complete control of the vehicle and it went on its own into a busy intersection going downhill.steering wheel and brake was locked loosing all electrical and driving control. It would not turn, it would not do any changes. My truck ended up bumping into a sidewalk, i was terrified as i almost lost my life. Shaking in fear i tried to restart my truck and it did turn on. I went inside the shopping center parking lot, parked and called aaa so my vehicle could be towed to our nearest dealership. We had an appointment at the dealership for tuesday due to negative reviews and they were going to look at ourvehicle again. However, i never expected that i would almost loose my life. It's the third time it's been seen and i fear it will be the same scenario. I cannot put my family's life at risk. The truck is currently at the dealership being serviced. I will not be driving this vehicle unless i have been given proof that they fixed the issue. I have documentation for proof.

Loss of power steering mostly at low speed. Truck loses power or shuts off completely. Also several times i have had no power upon start then after sitting for a few minutes it will be ok. Loss of power while driving when i switched to bright lights. Also drivers info center goes black

When my truck was under factory warranty it had a ratcheting clunking noise coming from the rack and pinion. The truck had 89000 on it and i called chevrolet filed a complaint.

Lose power steering and low speeds when turning and steering wheel becomes very difficult to turn
Was driving down the road and lost power steering suddenly and almost wrecked the truck.message on dash reads service power steering, drive with care! read where 450,000+ 2015 chevy silverdos were recalled for this but my truck wasn't in the recall looks like it should have been. Thanks
The truck vibrates crazy at highway speeds.it's been into the shop 4 times for same problem.they keep trying to balance the tires.the problem persists no matter what the dealer does.this vibration could be a real problem.
During slower driving and turning wheel, power steering hardens up and motor has shut down while in motion. When trying to turn wheel turning hard into parking or turning sharper turns while driving this occurs! very concerned for my safety and causing a crash. Busy street driving on highway and also in parking areas this has occurred
Drive shaft is out of balance causing it to shimmy on the highway, called gm several time no response to problemtokk back to kupper chevy in mandan ndthey won't fix needs new drive shaft been complaining since 5000 mile now has 54000 and still will not fix
On several occasions the truck will completely shut off while in a turn. All dashboard information shuts down. On several occasions driving about 35-50 mph going straight and then turning on blinker attempting to make a lane change the truck cuts out and shuts off for a second and turns back on. The headlights flicker and using power windows sometimes causes the truck to shut off for a second and come back on. This happens in park, turning, or driving down the road. I have already had the vehicle in the shop and this is after the software update, and the vacuum pump for the brakes was replaced twice.
I was driving slowed down to turn right onto my street ioss total control of my truck ended up on the side walk on the opposite side of road as i was not able to control my truck, my truck shut down completely while in drive, mydashboard started to display stabilitrack disabled, steering assistant reduced, two key programmed, open and close driver door. This is not the first time this has happened but the first time to this extreme that is why we had took our truck to vandergriff chevrolet in arlington txon 2/16/19 were they took care of the open recall and did a software reset for loss of steering assist c18289 and power steering control module but even after software reset i'm still having the same issue i'm taking my vehicle in again to be serviced as i find this loss of steering very dangerous thankfully no one was on that side walk that could've been seriously hurt. The other two times this happened prior to yesterday was when we were in a drive thru and we were turning to order food and once turning into my sons school again vehicle shut down completely while in drive all the warnings lights displaying.
Electric assist not working
The 2015 chevy silverado has a very common problem, which i am shocked has not been put under a nation wide recall. A manufacturing issue of placing the negative battery cable in the wrong spot, causes the dash, power steering, stability tracking and air conditioning to shut off completely. When braking, the dash shuts off and the steering wheel locks, which has sent me into oncoming traffic.my brother had the exact same year make and model of truck and had the same exact issue. When his needed to be fixed, he was told the same thing from the dealership. Ā€œthe negative battery cable should have never been in placed in that position, but relocating it will fix the problem. Only, after replacing the battery it burned out as well. Here is the text i received from the dealership today. Ā€œhey brian, this is matt @ ken garff chevrolet, we have tracked the problem down on the truck to the negative battery cable. It has high resistance causing the electrical issues. Estimate for repairs $492 before tax. Reply stop to optout.ā€¯ itā€™s a very good thing they diagnosed the issue, since i told them what it was when i walked in their shop. I told them verbatim what they sent back to me. There are literally thousands of complaints online with the same issue. How does a manufacturing fault, that is most definitely a safety issue, become the consumers expense. This problem is much worse, and more dangerous than the recalls that are currently on the vehicle. How many accidents and how much consumer money needs to be spent, before a recall is placed on such a common manufacturing issue. Please let me know what needs to be done to get this taken care of, so more people arenā€™t in danger, or screwed into paying to fix a blatant error by the manufacturer.

The rack and pinion has gone out on my 2015 chevy 1500. Loud creaking noises can be heard from turning the wheel side to side. For a truck to be 4 years and with 40k miles and this to go bad is a real quality issue. Online i have found numerous reports of this issue

Original complaint # 11011865,so i brought my 2015 silverado back to michaels chevrolet in fresno after they replaced my rack and pinion.the second rack had same issue after being on truck for three weeks.this time dealership refused to replace the rack.i noticed gm recalled over 800,000 2014 silverado recently.i have an early model 2015 silverado which i learned has the same rack and pinion as the 2014's.i asked the dealer if the recall could be effecting my truck as well.i was told they were unsure and it was possible, however they still refused to replace the rack under warranty.they told me it was as a result of my truck having a leveling kit.so now i can drive the vehicle due to it being unsafe.last thing i want is to be driving down the road and lose all steering.what can i do and is there any laws that protect me from gm warranty problems???
When i am turning at low speeds, usually below 10mph, power-steering assist stops working temporarily and then suddenly starts working again.
Vehicle was in motion moving straight forward at a very slow speed (inching out of car wash during drying cycle). Dash service indicator came on "service power steering drive with care". Lost power steering almost instantaneously as dash service warning appeared.was able to pull out of gas station with no power steering and pulled to side of road, turned off truck.checked under the hood to see if any noticeable loose connections (none).wiggled fuses in fuse box under hood.restarted vehicle and dash "service" indicator flashed on but power steering worked for 2 corners (200 yards) while driving 25 mph and failed with same service warning.limped truck with no power steering to dealer about 3 miles.no noticeable affect to accelerator or other electronics in the vehicle. Vehicle has 39,400 miles on it.
My silverado has developed a vibration around 4-5000 miles from new. The vibration starts around 60mph and increases in intensity up to and beyond 80mph, the legal speed limit in texas. The vibration can be felt throughout the cabin in the seats, center console, steering wheel, doors and gas pedal. On my last 3+ hour drive i had to stop midway because the vibrations gave me a headache. That's never happened in any other vehicle ever. After 3 visits to the dealer and multiple road force balance and tire replacements later the dealer states the truck is operating normal and is in spec. This is unacceptable for a brand new vehicle and i'm working on taking it to the next level with gm to deal with the problem.
When backing out of the driveway i lost power steering - this happened after recalls were performed. On the third visit to the dealer i was asked to pay for additional diagnosis to resolve the reoccurringpower steering issue. Walked out of dealership, wasted my morning.
While driving slow and making a hard left turn everything flashes off 0n dash ,then on, on dash,but engine shuts off causing steering and braking safety concerns,this has happened three times in last two week took it to dealership they couldn't
While driving, the radio and all other electric components will go dark or quit working altogether, including the ac blower, compressor, headlights, etc.sometime i get the stabilitrack alert with 3 or 4 tones, which resets automatically.when waiting in a drive through line today, when i depress the brake pedal, it happens again.while waiting in line, i sometimes put the transmission in park.when i depress the brake, and move the transmission control into drive, it happens, and more frequently, the engine shuts off.when turning the wheel, the power steering seems to go out, making it almost impossible to turn the vehicle, all the while the stabilitrack alarm goes off, the headlights go dark, the ac shuts down, the dash display goes dark, the door locks cycle up and down, and the engine shuts down.today, it almost caused me not to negotiate turning from a major road into a parking lot.i lost all power to the steering, the engine shut down, and my brakes were non-existent.after reading other complaints on here, i decided i needed to tell my story.i received the recall notices, and have not ventured to the dealership for repairs, fearing exposure to the covid-19 virus.after reading everyone else's problems, and hearing that even the recall repairs do not fix the problem, i cannot help but wonder if there is more going on here than gm is willing to admit.i will not let my wife drive this vehicle, because if it happens to her, there is no way she can maneuver a stalled vehicle with no power steering and no brakes.so it looks i have the same story as others, and no real solution to my problem that the dealerships are willing to fix, or even admitting that there is a problem.
Apparently my truck already had the steering recall preformed, but i'm having the same issue still. The power steering stopped twice while driving, almost causing us to hit another vehicle.the lights will also dim almost to off while turning the steering wheel while stationary, also power steering will quick momentarily while doing this also. What do you suggest i do?

Since i bought the truck new i have been experiencing vibration in steering and cab of truck. Been in the dealer 5 times for this problem. Repairs included 14 set of tires , balance drive shaft, replaced ring and pinion in differential, installed hydraulic bushings in steering rack . The truck still vibrates. This is a concern in safety if you dont know what the problem is how can you say its not a safety issue. Very displeased with general motors . There is alot of complaints about this issue and should be looked at more carefully
Power steering went out while driving on the road. Approx 50,000 miles delearship states no current recalls on this vehicle however there was a large recall for same issue on 2014 silverado

The steering suddenly and without warning jerks back and forth violently when you are trying to turn. I've seen this issue reported on 2014's also. We were stopped when it first happened. The steering jerked as i tried to move forward and something about the "stabilitrak" briefly flashed on the dash.the traction control light came on. We turned the traction control off, but it turned itself back on and the issue happened again trying to back into my driveway.
At lower speeds and idle the power steering fails along with certain electrical devices on the vehicle.
The truck was taken to dealership on sept. 24 for recall repair of faulty steering. On oct.1 steering locked up and brakes failed while my daughter was driving and an accident occurred.accident report filed with missouri state police.
Parked my truck came out to get in and go to work and had no power steering at all i was backing up in my driveway and was stuck in the middle of a battle creek city street unable to turn it even broke my finger/tendon on finger may having to have surgery due to no power steering and the great force i had to use to try to get it out of the road

My truck was recalled i received a call from my dealer about the recall. I took my truck to decatur james woods chevrolet which performed a recall on the eps module for a steering recall. Note prior to me taking my vehicle in i had no problems or issues. I take my truck in for documented oil changes and scheduled maintenance. Once they did the recall flash update reprogramming i picked up my truck and on the way home the dash lights blinked off the stabilitrac error and tow haul error both came up. I called the service dept immediately on the way using hands free system and the service advisor told me the recall couldn't cause that. On the road to my house the steering wheel jerked out of my hands light sprain to my wrist and almost took me off the road as the brakes also failed to work very well. The truck died to a stop. When i restarted it showed no errors and all worked again. The next morning when started it displayed a calibration error and had me open and close my driver window. When driving to my dealership jerry's chevy it blinked the dash again when i used my blinker to change lanes. The power and rpm where all over the place and running very rough. When i got to jerry's they basically told me they couldn't touch it and take the liability and to take it back to decatur they had messed something up. Next morning to to local mechanic we have used they put computer diagnostic on it and showed all kinds of errors as we test drove while hooked up. He said the recall program has evidently caused communication issues to other modules and can tear up the truck. I took it back to decatur they said they couldn't get to it and to come back the next day. I dropped it off truck still having issues and running and sounding worse and losing power and voltage gauge dropping and going back to normal. Safety concern for myself and others on road due to this recall flash.
My father died after having a accident in his truck on 11/8/18. I believe it is attributed to the recent recall , leading to him dying after being pulled out through the windshield and collapsed afterwards. The stress from this accident attributed to his death.
As my wife came to a complete stop at a stoplight and as the light turned green, she pressed the gas pedal and the truck would not accerlate. She pressed the gas pedal down to the floor board and still would not accerlate. So due to this the truck slowly rolled foward. She slammed on the brakes and the brakes would not move. Like if they became locked and wouldn't move an inch. At this point she is trying to get off the road to the shoulder, to avoid oncoming traffic. Then she finds that the steering wheel is also locked and can not be turned. It's taking her maximum effort to stop the truck from rolling forward and to veer off the road to avoid other vehicles. She is finally able to stop the vehicle after about 100 yards of effort and waits about 10 minutes, before the brakes and steering wheel would free up. No error message was present the entire time these functions were disabled and after they freed up, it was like if nothing ever happened. No check engine light has ever been on this vehicle. Strong belief this is a manufacturing defect and should have a recall.
When turning steering wheel i hear a clunking/grinding noise.on 7/07/2017 i brought it in to michaels chevrolet located in fresno, ca regarding the issue.i was told the issue was a result of a bad rack and pinion.they replaced the rack under warranty.now three weeks later i'm having the exact same problem so obviously this new one is bad as well.the clunking/grinding noise is more pronounced when stationary and turning wheel right and left and while backing.you don't really hear it much while driving.
It began with the headlights/parking lights flickering for a few weeks.later the truck began to give error messages about stability control, trailer brake control, and others.finally it violently jerked the steering wheel out of my hands on numerous occasions (truck has electric power steering).this happened at approximately 45 mph in various turns but i am concerned it could happen at highway speeds which would cause a serious crash and/or death.i am afraid to drive this vehicle especially with my family members on board.
On more than one occasion i have lost steering control while turning right at low speed. The steering wheel seems to lock up for one to two seconds making it impossible to turn right. 1.in turning lane on city street turning right onto side street. From stationary position i pressed on the gas to turn right and cross traffic. Steering locked up and truck would not turn right. In about a second or so the steering freed and i was able to continue on2. At a drive through car was in stationary position.at the end of wash and dry out truck in drive and proceeded to turn right. Steering locked up and i was unable to turn right for about a second or so. Then steering freed and i was able to proceed. 3. At stop light stationary making a right hand turn pressed on gas and steering locked up for a second or so. Then steering freed and i was able to proceed.

I was at a stop sign trying to make a left hand turn and the truck steering locked up and then it happened again in a drive thru fast food place. I'm scared it's going to cause me to wreck while driving. I have no control of the truck when it happens and my lights, radio, and door locks go out then come back on.
I bought my truck brand new from chevrolet. No accidents, well maintained truck. I have gone thru 2 rack and pinions and my truck just hit 32k miles. 1st time i noticed popping noises coming when i turned the steering wheel. Before i had a chance to take it to the service department the power steering completely went out. Just a couple days ago i noticed the popping noise again. I took it to the dealer today before my power steering would fail. Again the diagnosed it as the rack and pinion and is back in the shop.
Trucks shakes and vibrates at speeds over 65mph. Shakes are so bad it feels as though the wheels are coming loose. Tired have been rebalanced. Replaced. New rims. No solution.
I was driving and was making a left hand turn when my steering locked up and straightened out my wheels witch made my truck drive forward for a second and then it stopped and allowed me to continue my turn. A few days after this happened i was driving over a bumpy road and it did it again and a bell started ringing and a power steering message came on my dash and it persisted for about 10 minutes and i haven't drove my truck since

Driving at low speed lights flicker lose power steeringtruck stops running steering locks up
At low speeds of 15mph or less, when brakes are applied, the vehicles brake assist stops working and the electric to the car flashes off. If speeds are low enough and you apply brakes while turning right at a light or stop sign, the vehicle will shutoff and steering wheel locks. This is a huge safety issue and poor design.
I have taken my 2015 chevy silverado to the dealer 2 times and have a appountment for a third time. I was informed today its the rack and pinion ! seriously my truck has 35000 miles on it. Come on ! its under warranty but what happens when this happens again ? i am a mother of 6 i deoend in th is truck and if its happening at 35000 miles then what's going to happen at 100000
2015 chevrolet silverado 5.3l 4x4 (48,000 miles). While driving last night i was u-turning at a major intersection when the truck lost all power, then flashed "stabilitrak" on the dash, and jerked the steering wheel out of my hand. Should there have been someone coming the other direction there surly would have a major head on collision. I pulled into a parking lot after re-firing the truck and tried some low speed sharp turns and sure enough the same issue. Flickering power, "stabilitrak" flashing on dash, and steering wheel jerked out of my hand. When i say steering jerked its not as if i just lost power steering, the wheel will actually jerk as if its trying to get back to center on its own. I left the truck over night and went back this morning to have someone follow me home. This is a major safety issue. There is no issued recall for my vin. I've found hundreds of stories and videos on the internet very similar to mine for this same issue. There are some recalls for other model years that sound like they are aimed at the problem but not for my model/year and everyone i've found that has had the recalls for steering and voltage issues says that the problem continues. Its terrifying thinking that im driving a 6,000lbs mass that can shut off and steer itself out of no where. Ridiculous that this has not been resolved or even acknowledged by gm!
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. After the vehicle was repaired per nhtsa campaign number: 18v586000 (steering), the vehicle stalled and the instrument panel lighting flickered.

I brought my vehicle to the dealership that i bought my vehicle from after it showed what i believed to be signs of the electronic power steering (eps) recall affecting it. The dealership applied the fix that gm had and sent me on my way.the very next day i experienced what i believed to be the electronic power steering system acting up again. This time i was traveling at 55 m.p.h. On the highway beginning the interchange to another highway and could not turn the steering wheel for approximately 2 seconds. The loss of steering was almost as soon as i started the turn and almost caused me to go off of the highway. Then for the next 5-7 seconds i was able to manually turn the steeringwheel without power steering. All of a sudden the power steering turned back on and, because of how hard i was trying to turn the wheel, i almost ended up in the lane to my right where another vehicle was. I had no prior issues like this until the recall was worked at the dealership. Almost immediately after leaving the dealership the truck was acting weird, and at a stop the truck felt as if it was struggling to stay running. The dealership was contacted and agreed to have it towed back to them two days later. Now they are telling me it is due to bad battery cables and thatcaused power loss during the turn. They spent hours scanning the system to find that this actually happened, which they claim they could not find, but there was a warning light that showed on the dash notifying me that the power steering was out and to drive with care, so i do not understand how they did not find it during their scan. They then tell me there is a service bulletin, that came out a month after the eps recall did, and it will be an out of pocket expense. I cannot stop thinking that this issue is a direct result of the eps software fix and should be included to the recall to replace the battery cables.
Truck seems to lose power when slowing down. Steering wheel locks up. Dash display go dark and comes back. Stability track warning. Airbag warning. Headlights flicker. Ac and fan go out. Happens when making turns at a slow speed. And when hitting the brake at any speed.
2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. Consumer writes in regards to power steering. *ldthe consumer stated abs system and stabilitrak light illuminated. The consumer was made aware of a recall concerning the steering failure after having the vehicle repaired. The consumer requested to be reimbursed for the repairs.
The rack and pinion is making noise while turning the steering wheel. It is my understanding that due to the electronic power steering assist if it fails the steering will no longer work. I have seen many complaints about this same issue for these year model trucks and my truck only had approximately 40,000 miles. This part seems to have a high failure rate and is relatively expensive especially if it fails multiple times which i have read happens.

My truck shakes frequently going down the road at certain speeds. I've had it for around 6 years now and i can't pinpoint exactly when it started. I've had the truck in for maintenance/service at the dealership as well as other auto shops trying to diagnose the problem. I've had new tries, new brakes, countless tire rotations, wheel balancing etc you name it. And the problem persists. Recently after hearing about the "chevy shake" i've come to realize that my problems are just like what others have too. Now my powertrain has given out. And my extended warranty has ended. I truly believe that the issues have caused, or are caused by this prevailing issue of a wobbling drive shaft. Every time i have had it in for repairs the issue still persists and i can't always get the time to go back and have it looked at it again. It is a safety issue above all else and i truly believe gm knows about it but does nothing. Even more to the point, i had a "transmission fluid flush" just under a month ago and now all of a sudden my truck doesn't shift like it should. They say it will cost over 5 thousand dollars to get repaired. There is something seriously wrong here. This is an ongoing issue, and again it is difficult to say when it started. But a vehicle going down the highway at speed limit and shaking is a safety concern.

Eps failure that has a recall. While driving on the street, the steering locked up. There's also a recall on the brakes.
I bought the car three days earlier. The vehicle has 4800 miles on it. It is a certified used truck.i was driving on a curvy road on the side of a small mountain. While driving, i noticed the steering getting a little play in it, not much ever so slight. When i got to the 90 degree left turn, onto another road, i found i had lost the ability to turn the vehicle. The truck started toward the trees. I hit the brakes and gave it all i had, muscle wise, in order to make the turn. I pulled over and regained my com-posher.i did notice there was a message on the instrument panel indicating a problem with the steering and to be careful driving, i did not notice that message before the incident. I then proceeded to drive to to the dealership very slowly with the flashers on. I only had to make five turns and eight miles to go to the dealership.the steering was making all kinds of noises and jerky motions. There was no injuries or damage done to the vehicle during this incident. I just wonder what would have happen if my wife or one of my daughters were driving.
Complete loss of power steering. I was leaving my local bank and the service power steering light came on and i lost all power steering and it had not returned. I did some online searching and found there was a recall but the symptoms were loss and immediate return of power steering but thought maybe mine was also associated. I took my truck to lynn smith chevrolet in burleson tx and was told the power steering control module was bad and the entire steering rack needed to be replaced which is $3,000 out of my pocket.my truck is a 2015 with 53,xxx miles it had never acted strange or given me any problems until that one incident. I was extremely lucky to have a break in traffic as it caused me to occupy all three lanes with my 10 year old daughter in the truck.
My 2015 chevrolet silverado crewcab ldhas a very dangerous steering issue. The problem is the steering system fully gives out making it impossible to turn the wheel and sometimes the wheels jerks back approximately 1/4 turn. Gm has recalled trucks for this issue on all silverado models 2014/15 except the 2015 crew cab . This is a very dangerous issue . The truck only has 36,251 miles and is taken care of to the fullest per manufacturers guidelines . This is a very dangerous issue and it seems that gm has admitted it and recalled many vehicles outside the trucks as well for the same problem, hopefully they will do the right thing and make a recall for all affected models before someone gets seriously hurt.
Loss of power steering while driving , safety hazard!contacted gm and was told no recall on my specific vin #even though there is a recall on same year make & model vehicle. Was told by gm to take vehicle to dealership & gm would try & assist in getting vehicle repaired. With it being a safety issue and same make & model as vehicle that has recall in place for the same part, i feel gm should repair the vehicles power steering motor at no cost to me.

For months i have been experiencing small issues at first, turn signal quit making noise, and then the radio quit working, this issue would only be corrected by turning off the vehicle, and restarting it, now the problem has gotten worse, tpms lights up on the dashboard the stabillitrack icon appears, and vehicle appears to stall momentarily and the radio goes blank, the most dangerous part is the electric steering wheel locks up, i have read several complaints online about this issue, and find no solution has ever been recorded, so far i have experiment this issue at low speeds and it is a interment problem that randomly happens
Driving at 60 mph on highway and power steering went out. I had to nurse it to dealer, jba in glen burnie md. Of course this happens on a saturday morning & now i have no truck for the weekend
Steering system is loose which can be felt in steering wheel. Other years were recalled. 2015 not recalled
This weekend my truck started acting weird.on saturday there is a very intermittent zap or click noise that would come through the speakers. Almost like there is a short somewhere.when this happens and i am turning the steering wheel tries to pull back midline for about a second or two then goes back to where it was previously turned to.when i started the truck up on sunday i had to re-enter the time in the radio but all stations were still programed into it.i noticed when the headlights are on and it makes that noise the headlights flicker a little bit.on the way into work this morning that noise was not there but during a turn on the interstate the steering wheel tried three or four times to return to midline during the turn. It happens so fast that is is finished just about the time you can react to it.
When taking a long, rather sharp turn on the highway, the vehicle was resisting against the turn making it difficult to maneuver the vehicle.at the same time, the brakes began to initiate when the pedal was stepped, but immediately became very hard and could barely slow or stop the vehicle.almost hit the vehicle in front due to the delay and difficulty in braking.
Truck began to have the chevy shakes about the 12k mile point and has increasingly gotten worse the more mileage the truck gains ( currently 14k miles) i have called and talked to technicians about this and they ensured me that its normal. I've owned several trucks and i have never not been able to go over speeds of 55 without having terrible shakes and wobbles in my truck. Chevrolet needs to address this properly and fix the issue or buy back the trucks that are affected by this issue, when a person spends 50k + on a vehicle this should be the last thing the should have to worry about is feeling safe in their vehicle. I will never buy another chevrolet product again due to not only this but a number of other issues i have with the truck including hard shifting and extreme lack of power.
I estimate this has happened over 10 times.i lose all electrical power to the vehicle and the car shuts off, often this is preceded by loss of power steering and low speed.the last time this happened when pulling out into traffic; the steering kicked back, the truck lost all electrical power, dash went blank, radio dark, including loss of head lights, i will reiterate that this happened while pulling into traffic.this truck cost me over $40k new and i believe chevy is aware of the problem, then simply don't want to cover the cost of parts and labor to fix.the dealership told me they had no idea what the issue could be, then i found several gm documents online.it appears this is a known issue, and they even list 2015 silverado on documents.bulletin no.:18-na-161 (the issues in this match exactly what i've experienced) alsoreference number:n172085440please help me convince chevrolet to fix this issue or force them to do a recall.
Truck was serviced for power steering assist programming recall. Ok for about two months. Problem started again: power steering lost, low speed whobble & steering wheel shake. Original problem was to replace power steering motor assist kit. I never got this original recall. I still have a serious steering problem. Please help me solve this problem.## vin passed ## chevy silverado ltz 2015 ##
When slowing down to park, i lost braking and could not stop the truck. I had to put the truck in park to stop the momentum. This happened going in reverse. When taken to dealer i was charged $470.96 for parts and labor at n the vacuum pump which provides power for braking and steering.
The steering wheel has a popping noise every time i turn it. The 2nd thing is, i have lost power steering 8-10times while turning into a parking spot. One time it stalled the engine and lost all power for 30-40 minutes and i had to unhook the battery cables to reset so it would crank. Makes me feel real safe while going around a curve at 60 mph wondering if i'm going to lose power again.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving approximately 15 mph, the service power steering warning message illuminated and the vehicle lost power steering ability. The vehicle was driven to ciocca chevrolet of quakertown (855 s west end blvd, quakertown, pa 18951) where it was diagnosed that the steering gear assembly, torque sensor, and harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 55,100.
I'm having issues with my chevy silverado dying out while driving when i'm making turns that will cause the truck to have error messages popping up with regards to the stable trac sensor, the airbag light coming on, the radio going in and out, and the ac going out/coming back on. While backing up the truck is locking up on me, and the steering wheel is jerking out of my hands, which will dye out as well. When i go to start it back up the truck then gives me an error message of roll down the drivers side window that you have to do in order to clear it out. I've currently had this at the chevy dealership the past 6 months without them being able to fix this numerous times.
Power steering went out traveling at highway speeds towed todealership next day and they couldn't identify a problem and i was told everything was working fine when they received it
Very low speed impact caused total steering loss. Turning right onto a street, impacting a stationary vehicle located the passenger side. Speed of impact was very low, but caused steering loss. Repair estimate shows failure of the gear assy, steering.i have a police report and insurance estimate from chevy dealership, and will provide them upon request, but do not wish to make them public.
This picture represents some of the paint loss on the 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 crew cab. I bought this vehicle brand new and have never been in the snow. There's no way that a vehicle should have paint peeling or have exposed metal.
Weak paint, lots of peeling in random spots. Specifically around passenger windows. Dealerships have not been willing to help or file a complaint to gm, should not pay this much for a vehicle and this happen so quickly to the paint. I am scared to wash it, as it seems to make the issue worse.
The paint is so cheap on this truck every time i look it it has a new chip and the roof is starting to crack and lookhorribletook it to chevy they say it's birds it'sgarage kepthas 22000 miles on it i never really drive it's starting to look as bad as my 03 1500hd and it's a work truck
Noticed paint is flaking on passenger rear door next to the window now the other door on the drivers side is now peeling. Dealer will not fix problem due to truck being out of warranty by 3,000 miles.
Subject: allegations, herein, of safety concerns for, production years (2014 -2018) chevrolet silverado 1500 ltz71 and gmc sierra 1500 all terrain as; 'off road' and 'trail performance' capable vehicles.1. Gmc/chevrolet advertises these vehicles, sab, as 'off road' capable vehicles without restrictions. Further, company brochures for 2014-2018, enhance this advertising with quotes and pictures displaying as such. Note: owner's manuals for these vehicles do not address 'off road' driving with the unsafe low design front end.2. Allege, the silverado's low design front end, is inadequate for 'off road' driving and highly susceptible to damage, causing impacts resulting in loss of vehicle control and an occupant safety concern. Upon my traversing on uneven ground, results in the low design front end (air damper, bumper, and grille) digging in and causing loss of vehicle control as well as significant damage, even at crawl speeds. The low front end (pics attached) acts as a cattle catcher, snow plow and in deep mud and snow, a jack suspending the vehicle on the frame making the design hazardous.3. To confirm my allegations, request review of the sale of all front end replacement parts for, 2014-2018 production years.4. I also allege that advertising, as an 'off road' and 'trail performance' capable vehicle is fraudulent as it conveys the z71 4x4 vehicles as safe for 'off road' use, without restrictions, nor cautions the occupants of the low front end design that is susceptible to damage and costly repair, nor cautions the occupants of the potential for impact and loss of control (redirect) of the vehicle if damage occurs. 5.

The paint on this truck has begun to peel in a couple spots.gm isn't willing to fully cover this as they say it is out of warranty.a 4 year old vehicle shouldn't have paint issues like this, especially when it is a common occurrence with this model year.
I am seeing extreme amount of clearcoat peeling all around vehicle. Appears to be specific to this vehicle paint process. Professional paint shop says poor paint job. Dealer won't help. Gm won't help. I see many others online that have same problem. My truck is in perfect condition. I own other gm cars with no problems. I want help from dealer to fix (college chevrolet, albion, mi 49224).

I purchased a 2015 chevy silverado with the extended warranty for my son.at 44000 miles he noticed the paint peeling.i took it to the dealership where purchased and spoke with the body shop supervisor.he told me the truck had been painted twice at the factory.at this point, gm offered me 1000 dollars of the cost to repair the truck.i contacted gm executive branch and after research was told the truck had no history of being painted twice and there offer stood at 1000 dollars of the repairs.so, i went to three different body shops and they all told me the truck had been painted twice.the last shop i went to even measured the thickness of the paint to prove it.any help appreciated.
The paint is horrible. Chipping and flaking off of the truck.
Paint chipping, peeling off everywhere. I have had this truck for 5 months and have 15-20 spots where it is flaking or peeling off. Dealership claims they don't know of any issue yet we found where they had spot treated some chips!
Recall on braking system, reported to gm dealer, waited, drove vehicle while still on recall, dealership quoted that it will be okay, ( travel to med appointments) after several attempts, finally got it in, (its fixed), continued driving it, still having problems with braking, the pedal was jumping, oh! that's normal stated the technician, i continued driving, i called the dealer ship i bought the truck from, new in 2015, explained explain to them the problem im having, (said well bring it to the dealer ship near you, did that!) again nowhere, called the dealership and asked if they would look at it, well bring it in, tech took for a ride, that's what they normally do, vibrate like that , yah. Well frustrated as i was we continued to drive, to my med appointments, well, coming back stop at an establishment, as we were pulling in the truck wouldn't stop!, and i slid right into a mental pole, damaging the entire front of our truck, the force of the hit lunged both i and my wife forward at an abrupt stop! my wife sustain a neck and back injury, my left shoulder, report to ins, and property owner, my ins pay out for the damage. I reported this to the dealer ship, we'll have to schedule an appointment.

Air bag deployment
Three times at dealer for water leaking on passenger floor,just went over my three year bumper to bumper warranty,after third attempt,i dont knowhow much damage to eletrical system, leaks when washing or raining.
I was driving my 2015 silverado 1500 when my daughter in the backseat noticed that's something smell like it was burning, she told me and within 10 seconds i could smell the same thing and it smelled like electrical was burning. I could see smoke coming from behind her headrest so i pulled off the road immediately and got her out of the back seat and could see it was coming from either the slide window or the defroster so i jumped in the front seat and seen the rear defroster was on and shut that off and almost immediately following me shutting that off it sounded like a gunshot went off in my back seat and the rear driver side window exploded the only thing holding it together was the factory window tint. There is all kind of glass shards in the backseat from when it shattered. I had to have my wife pick up my daughter because she is too young to sit in the front seat. So i have to put tape over the window to hold it together until the dealership contacts me back.

My paint it flaking/peeling around my wheel wells and the dealer says they cant fix it. The paint just keeps peeling and peeling i have three spots and they keep getting bigger to the point they are rusting. The problem is the paint isn't sticking to the metal/primer very cheap paint.

Takata recall-i was in a wreck 12-24-2017 and i was hit from behind. The bed of my truck was hit so hard by a distracted driver while i was at a stop light, that it twisted up and hit the cab of the truck. My airbags never deployed and my seatbelt never locked up. I am severely injured and am still seeking treatment for my injuries. It was over $11,000 in damages. The truck now down shifts and it sounds likie the bottom is dropping out. It also shakes when at highway speed.
Water filtration from the shark antenna and rear third light, with possible short on a dash board and instrumental panel (already occurredmore than once with no light on a instrumental panel and no function of the all gauges including speed gauge) the problem happened especially on rainy days on stationary vehicle and also in a driving conditions bolt city and highway time. The photo showing are only the recent but the problem happened several times before than now. This time was the worst ever
Paint is constantly chipping.
Paint is pealing off doors, roof, hood, etc.
The paint is peeling/flaking off.
I own a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 ltz in maroon red. I have noticed the clear coat throughout almost every panel of the truck is peeling in large bubbles. The hood is especially bad above the grill. Each door below the chrome strip along the lower kick plate is especially bad. Each wash of the vehicle makes it worse. Sadly, looking at each area, a small pit to the metal is visible; almost as if every rock chip/scratch is making it worse.
Paint started bubbling and cracking off. It is very obvious that the paint did not adhere to the primer. I have 32000 miles. Mostly drive on the weekends because i work across the street from my house. I do not do any off-road driving. There is no reason for the paint to peel.
Paint is peeling and flaking in multiple spots on my truck. Gm will not do anything about it because it's after 3 yr or 36000 miles. This is a very popular problem with this year of chevy trucks. It's all over vehicle websites. It's a bad patch of paint or primer issue. Gm told me it's maintenance after the paint warranty is up. The spots are inside my tailgate and next the windshield. Two spots where it is almost impossible for chips to happen from driving. This is a gm problem! this should be a recall. I'm sure they know there is a major problem. They need to fix it. They are losing chevy customers.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While the contact was installing nerf bars on the vehicle, he noticed that the entire frame was severely rusted, including the cross members. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 82,000.

I bought a gm certified silverado with 20000 mile on it. And the idle vibration and drive vibration are so bad it gives me headaches after driving for any period over an hour.the dealer says this is normal and they are nuts if this is normal. I have contacted chevrolet. But after researching online, there does not seem to be a fix. My truck is unsafe! chevrolet needs you fix these problems.
Ever since i bought the vehicle i've noticed a ruff ride . It feels like it's coming from rear end . I hit a slight bump on road while driving and it bounces and vibrates roughly. Took it back to dealership a month or so after buying it and was told my tires where not balanced , so they balanced them and still came out the same . Decided to get a second opinion months later and was told it had weak shocks in front so they changed those out . Still nothing had changed . So returned it to the same dealership a week later and they then did the rear shocks mentioning they were in weak condition. Still no change. At that time my vehicle was under factory warranty so i guess they troubleshoot the cheapest way just to get the customer out of their and save money on their end . Now that my warranty is just over i called the dealership and they are giving me options i should have been told when my warranty was in effect.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving approximately 75 mph, the rear of the vehicle was unstable, swerved, bounced, and vibrated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who installed new shocks, but the failure continued. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the leaf springs were faulty. No further information was available. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 3,000.
Trucks shakes and vibrates at speeds over 65mph. Shakes are so bad it feels as though the wheels are coming loose. Tired have been rebalanced. Replaced. New rims. No solution.
Whenevr i back the truck up at slow speeds, the brakes temporarily fail for approximately 1-3 feet.coming to a stop at slow speeds can also cause the truck to take extra distance to stop.i have changed to new brake pads, turned the rotors, and purchased new tires.the truck bounces severely when traveling at speeds over 50 mph on concrete roads.only on concrete.asphalt has normal ride as soon as the road transitions then the truck bounces.
The truck shakes at speeds offrom 35 mph, then it stops and when driving on the highway at speeds between 60 and 70 on the thruway it shakes again. The vibration is transferred through the gas pedel and into the seats and console. Also when brakeing it shakes. Its been in for service several times for this since i bought it. Also the voltage meter drops and i lose dash board lights.this happens while the vehicle was in motion on both city and highway driving. I'm tired of loseing valuable days off to drive up to denooyer chevy in albany to have them look at this again. The truck travels straight and true but shakes at those speeds, sometime it makes a drowning sound as it happens.its in the front end part of the suspension i believe. The tires were all high speed balanced and air is perfect in all 4 tires. Has anyone experienced this?
While in motion, i've noticed a shaking coming from the rear end of my 2015 chevy silverado 1500 double cab. My truck sits on factory 20 inch rims. I've had the wheels balanced when i replaced the tires. Shaking continues. Shaking more noticeable after reaching speeds of 60 m.p.h. And above. I've been told by the service manager of the dealer i purchased the truck from that it is a known issue but there is no fix or solution. The shaking first started after the truck reached 10,000 miles and has not gotten any better in the past 5,500 miles. The problem is persisting and possibly getting worse.
The truck vibrates crazy at highway speeds.it's been into the shop 4 times for same problem.they keep trying to balance the tires.the problem persists no matter what the dealer does.this vibration could be a real problem.
At highway speeds between 58 and 74 mph, there is a vibration that shakes the truck. My first trip to the dealership, they said 3 of the 4 tires needed to be replace, which was covered under warranty. The truck had approximately 3500 miles, when i took it the first time. The problem was stable for a few thousand miles, and then started to get bad, i called and scheduled an appointment, and the truck has been at the dealership for over a week now, and they have replace the one tire that wasn't orginally replaced.they also said they are looking at the exhaust system.
The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. After the accelerator pedal was depressed, the vehicle vibrated severely without warning. The dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. The failure mileage was 25,600.
Front suspension noise - during cold weather and when first driving within the first 1/2 mile, a loud noise comes from the front suspension after driving over a bump or speed bump.this only happened when very cold and within the first 1/2 mile. Brought the vehicle to the dealer at 35000 miles (koons chevrolet, tysons corner, va) and under warranty they re-torqued the front frame cross member and lower control arms. I actually could not believe that chevrolet and the dealer stated that was the problem.in all my years repairing cars, i have never heard of a "frame cross member" requiring re-torqueing especially on a new vehicle.if it was loose along with the lower control arms, that would indicate a serious problem.problem was not resolved.6 months later when cold again, brought the truck to the dealer and they now state that "the sway bar bushings required lubrication".again, i have never heard of a rubber bushing requiring lubrication.immediately after taking the truck from the dealer, i took pictures of the sway bar bushings sowing all the lubricant oozing out.i have addressed this issue with gm and they have been non-responsive.my concern is with all the vibrations that these trucks have reported, the life cycle of the front sway bar bushings will be reduced and could have a serious detrimental affect during a crash as the vehicle gets older.i was told there is no gm service bulletin on the issue.the dealer just wants the problem to go away and not see the truck again.gm needs to address this issue properly from a technical point of view from their engineers.
Excessive vibrations while driving. Mainly on the highway. Been to 2 different dealers with no resolution to my issues! don't feel safe with driving the truck i think my chevy has the a case of the chevy shakes! please help me
Since i bought the truck new i have been experiencing vibration in steering and cab of truck. Been in the dealer 5 times for this problem. Repairs included 14 set of tires , balance drive shaft, replaced ring and pinion in differential, installed hydraulic bushings in steering rack . The truck still vibrates. This is a concern in safety if you dont know what the problem is how can you say its not a safety issue. Very displeased with general motors . There is alot of complaints about this issue and should be looked at more carefully
Air conditioner blowing hot air.vehicle was in motion.i understand this is a common problem with silverados.did research on line.cost over $1000.00 to repair.condenser failure (leaking)
My truck only has 42,000 miles on it. Over the course of 3 days i noticed the air conditioner go from blowing cold air to blowing warmer air until it no longer was cold. The dealer inspected the system and said the ac condenser needs to be replaced. Since it is out of warranty, it will cost approximately $1,300 to fix. The part is on backorder for at least 3 weeks. The current "feel like" temperature in florida is 106 degrees fahrenheit outside. That would be a long time to go without a/c without a loaner from the dealer, which the dealer did offer.
After owning my truck for just over 2 years and 30k miles, the ac stopped blowing cold air. When purchased new and for the next couple of years driving it, the ac worked perfectly, this happened from one day to the next. After searching online for a resolution, i came across multiple other chevrolet owners with the same issue. The culprit came to be known as the ac condenser. It is known that the condensers used by gm for this model truck have weak welds and this is where the condenser fails producing a small leak. As it turns out, gm is aware of the issue with the ac condensers on these vehicles and refuses to cover them under warranty and wants to charge upwards of $1k dollars to replace. I am completely unsatisfied with this considering my truck is only 2 years old with under 35k miles on it. This is too new of a vehicle for the ac to be having problems that are not covered under warranty.
Our air conditioning condenser went out after only owning the vehicle 3.5 years and 70k miles. We bought it brand new. It is costing us $1100 to fix.
The ac compressor and condenser problems.the air conditioner stopped working in august 2019, to it to the shop and the recharged the unit.the air conditioner stopped blowing cold air a few days later.took the truck in to get looked at again, was waiting for a recall notice and the air condenser is broken.there was a lawsuit for this same issue for my year of truck and they are saying im not in the group.it is going to cost almost $2000 to repair.
While slowing down to make a turn, usually always using turn signal, my truck will completely shut down in the middle of the intersection with no warning. The engine shuts down and all electrical is lost. Luckily i haven't been hit by another vehicle while trying to restart my truck in the middle of the intersection had to jump out carso i wasn't in side if hit finally cars stop honkingi jumped back in and started up again i was scared had my children with me
I have had a 14 now a 2015 silverado that both have had a a/c condenser go out by 45k miles this is completely rediculouse this is not considered a safety concern , and has not been recalled as well as i have spent 2k on these repairs in 2 years i have a condition that i cannot take extreme heat so i have no choice but to spend the money gm was contacted they basically said i will get 12 month warranty on new repair.
I have 60,000 miles and bought it new and today my ac goes out here is another 1000 dollars to repair the condenser i see there are a lot of problems with this year what can we do this is such a shame for the chevrolet family we purchase appx 10 a year and this is what we have to look forward to my brother has a 2015 also and has replaced the condenser 2 times alreadywhen are they going to step up andtake care of the customers!!??not only that but i called young chevrolet at 7:27am and spoke with the parts/service dept and they said take it anywhere not the chevy corp office is stating no after i already started the repair i cant be with out ac i have breathing issues and the hot texas heat doesn't help they really need to get their act together!
Transmission is continually hesitating - when coming to stop and then accelerating again. It is a dangerous situation almost caused accident 3 times
My 2015 silverado with 59,000 had the ac go out. The ac blows warm air wehter it is parked, driving on the highway @ 65mph. Apparently there are thousands of other gm owners with the same issue. This issue is on sierras, silverados, tahoes, yukons, and escalades! it is a defective and well known and documented issue with the ac condenser/compressor. It cost over $1,000.00 to fix and is not covered under warranty with no gm or dealer discounts. The issue is so major that the back order for the part takes months and there are over 18,000 units are on back order! yes! 18,000 units!
It seems that my vehicle is leaking somewhere around either the sunroof or the xm antenna. I already had the leak around the third brake light which not only filled the lens up with water and kept blowing bulbs for my third brake light fixed. But from the research i've done it seems that a lot of different year and models of the silverado have been doing so. But some how when it rains or i wash my truck or go thru a car wash i get water dripping from my headliner onto my heated seats, down behind my dash and water puddling up into my floorboard, on the drivers side. When the third brake light was leaking my whole rear floorboard would be completely soaked. The condensation on my windows would make it hard to drive and be able to see thru the windshield, the water dripping on me while driving was a distraction also and if i turned on my heated seats i sometimes would feel electrical shocks in my butt, and the fact that i have mold growing on top of my headliner and in my carpet makes my truck smell and i'm sure breathing the mold in isn't health for me or my 10 year old son. I took the truck to the local chevy place and they won't fix it due to it having over 36,000 miles yet i have the extended warranty which doesn't cover this, my insurance company doesn't cover it either.
I own a gray 2015 silverado and the paint is flaking off on numerous spots all over the vehicle. The flakes are the size of a pin head and appear to be mainly around the grill and front of the vehicle.
Transmission problems. When reversing up a driveway the truck will stall as the gas is pressed it will rev up but not go anywhere, then jump into reverse as if the petal was floored. Also some times when entering the highway the transmission doesn't shift into the correct gears also jumping into gear which could cause accidents.
A/c failure due to cracks in condenser weldments. Ac starts blowing warm air, compressor cycles continuously, notice the absence of the cooling fan noise. Added one 12oz can r134a, 1 oz pag oil, brought line pressures back> ls-40-45psi/ hs>230-250psi, vent temp on max-38 deg. Lasts about a week.
Cracked weld in ac condenser. Has happened to numerous gm pickups and suv's in this year.
Condenser is going out on my truck.
Apparently the a/c compressor issue is well known via gm yet it is not classified as a recall. We have two children under 5 who have to endure the heat until we find a place that does not try to rob us on something that is happening to every 2015 silverado 1500. On any other basis this would be a recall, so why is it not? at the least, i figured gm would offer a discounted service for replacements. The parts for the 2015 body were already recycled parts so why such a steep price.
Ever since i bought the vehicle i've noticed a ruff ride . It feels like it's coming from rear end . I hit a slight bump on road while driving and it bounces and vibrates roughly. Took it back to dealership a month or so after buying it and was told my tires where not balanced , so they balanced them and still came out the same . Decided to get a second opinion months later and was told it had weak shocks in front so they changed those out . Still nothing had changed . So returned it to the same dealership a week later and they then did the rear shocks mentioning they were in weak condition. Still no change. At that time my vehicle was under factory warranty so i guess they troubleshoot the cheapest way just to get the customer out of their and save money on their end . Now that my warranty is just over i called the dealership and they are giving me options i should have been told when my warranty was in effect.
Ac blows out warm was told the evaporator leaksfrom the factory.
Truck shakes while traveling on the highway.it isn't noticeable on side streets in the city but when traveling on a major highway the entire truck shakes sometimes at lower speeds but always above 70-75 miles per hour.it shakes so violently that a drink in the console will shake out of it's container.i've had it in the shop 4 times but the chevrolet service center cannot fix it.they have balanced and replaced tires but cannot fix it.i feel it is unsafe or could lead to damage rendering it unsafe.
My father died after having a accident in his truck on 11/8/18. I believe it is attributed to the recent recall , leading to him dying after being pulled out through the windshield and collapsed afterwards. The stress from this accident attributed to his death.
Vehicle was being operated on a paved road when the rear window defroster was turned on to clear snow on the outside.several moments later i heard a hissing sound coming from the rear interior of the pickup cab and then looked into the rear view mirror, at which time i saw smoke emitting form the lower corner of the passenger side fixed window pane (this is 3 piece rear window where the middle pan opens via electrical switch).the hissing continued with the smoke that was coming from the lower corner of the window nearest to the central window panel.i immediately recognized the odor of an electrical fire (burning insulation) and then turned off the rear window defroster switch.the hissing sound and smoke ceased.a few seconds later 8 heard a loud 'pop' sound come from the back window and observed that the entire rear passenger side window had shattered, in place with the fracture line emanating outward from he area where the smoke was first observed.
Rear drivers side door says it's not latched but it is. Therefore the doors do not lock automatically and the dome lights do not turn off automatically. This could cause some serious issues as i don't know if the door is properly latched since it says this all the time. My children ride in the vehicle and this is a huge safety concern.
I have had to replace 4 windshields from cracks beginning on the bottom right (passenger) side of vehicle.
Truck shakes severely when driving at speeds above 70 mph on many different road types. This problem started not too long after i got my truck new. After complaining about it the service department said this is "standard 22 inch wheel vibration." after i had about 35000 miles on it the vibration got so bad i couldn't stand to drive on the freeway. Took it back to the dealer and they said the tires were wore out even though there was still plenty of tread. Had another shop look at it and they found one of the wheels was ever so slightly bent. Took it back to the dealer to confirm. They sold me a new wheel, the problem didn't go away or change in any way. I bought new tires as they recommended, problem was still there but not so severe until after driving a few thousand miles. The more miles i put on the tires the worse the vibration gets. Took it back into the dealer again recently, they keep telling me it's standard vibration for 22 inch wheels. I know this is bogus because i know a few people with the exact same wheels and tires that don't have the shaking problem, they can drive as fast as they want and it's smooth. Everybody that rides with me asks what is wrong with my truck. How can i convince the dealer that there is an actual problem?
Air conditioning on my 2015 chevrolet silverado is only blowing warm air.
Activated remote start on vehicle.as i got into vehicle, my passenger noticed a burning smell and then saw thick smoke coming from rear window.i turned off the rear defroster and the smoke started to dissipate.my rear window then shattered.gm recalled 159,000 vehicles in canada due to what seems like the same issue with rear defrosters.my truck was purchased in the united states.
I haven't used the a/c in my truck since last october (2018) approximately. Two weeks ago was the first time i've tried to use my a/c and it is only blowing hot air, as i was driving down the interstate. From what i've researched, this is an known problem with a lot of vehicles from gm from 2014-2017 and nothing is being done about it.this is not okay, whatsoever.
This is a follow up from complaint #11228752 regarding the ac issues on chevy &gmc pickups from 2014 thru 2017 year models. From research i did 98% of the failures was the condenser which also includes the transmission oil cooler. My condenser failed on the drivers side first 3 tubes below the transmission oil cooler as did my friends 2016 sierra and another friend's 2016 texas edition sierra. Same failure same location and between 60 & 75k. Repaired mine myself & my warranty paid me back for new condenser ($219) but not the freon or my labor. There's most definitely an issue on this part and saw no visible difference in the old/ new piece other than a 6'x 6' square of aluminum type flex pad in the upper left corner on driver's side. Similar to the 2018 models not affected by this problem.
Vehicle has bad vibration between 65 and 75 mph.
Air conditioner started blowing hot air. Took to dealer they found a weld broken loose on the top left corner of the condenser causing a leak. Currently gm condensers are on back order. Due to the overwhelming problem nationwide. They charge me to refill the system with freon (or equivalent), 24 hours later it has leaked out and is blowing hot air again. Dealer guessed 3 to 6 weeks before they would get the replacement part in. Truck has 68,000 miles with cost going to be $1300.00. We also have a 2015 chevrolet suburban with 74,000 miles on it that had the exact same problem. Cost $1300.00 to fix.
Faulty tailgate bushing (gm part no. 84331136/84131760), plastic, engineering defect. The part cracks, breaks, disintegrates, simply by opening or closing the truck tailgate over a short period of time. The busing was designed to assist the tailgate by reducing the weight or muscle needed to rest the tailgate without slamming. When the busing cracks or breaks then the tailgate slams down. This is a safety issue since the owner becomes accustomed to the tailgate lowering with ease, and upon the first time opening tailgate after the bushing has been compromised, it slams down, risking injury to your arms, possibly your back or anyone like children, a child's head underneath or below the owners waist. Secondly, gm is "price gauging" their customers. The part cost less than $10 during the warranty period, and the cheaply manufactured part, which is most likely spun on a 3-d printer by a canadian company costs $44 now. They do not offer a oem part and have not changed the plastic part to adapt to all of the customer complaints. This is the fourth bushing i have to replace. Online research of other truck owners with the same vehicle indicate this is a wide spread public problem. I have filed a complaint with gm. They are not willing to help me replace the part at no cost. Please help the consumer. Thank you for your consideration.
The truck has a constant vibration at highway speeds. Two different dealers have verified the problem, gm field engineers verified there is an issue, and the engineer recommended the dealer change rear end parts, still no fix. Two different dealers felt roadforce balancing the tires would help; it has not. The truck also makes a chirping noise when transitioning from 4 cylinders back to 8 cylinders.
The cabin of the vehicle fills with carbon monoxide. This is known because a 4 gas monitor in the vehicle read carbon monoxide levels in excess of 400 ppm. The source of the leak after being taken to the dealership was found to be a broken bolt in the exhaust manifold. The parts only estimate was $1,700 with approximately 9 labor hours.online research found numerous complaints. Failure to correct the condition may lead to drivers fainting while driving and cause brain injury to a child or infant.a leak in the exhaust before reaching the catalytic converters also results in possibly excessive untreated emissions.the exhaust leak may or may not pose a fire hazard.
It has a shake that is making me nauseous and sometimes feeling dizzy.very noticeable 65 ~ 75 mphsince new
Air conditioning stopped cooling over the course of just a few days, to the point of zero cooling.refilled refrigerant, worked for about 3 days, then stopped again.happened during all phases of driving, whether moving or stopped.
The air conditioning does not blow cold. 2015 silverado with 55k. Do not hear the ac compressor kick in when ac button pushed. Hissing noise overheard when it does decide to work. Internet queries lead me to believe this is a known issue with 2014, 2015 silverado models and gm does not acknowledge.
The 2015 chevrolet silverado k1500 high country vibrates and makes a loud humming noise at various speeds beginning at 20 mph up to approximately 60 mph.the vibration can be felt through the seat and steering wheel.the frequency and sound level is not dependent on speed, load or road conditions.it's always there.i'm taking it back to the chevrolet dealer again tomorrow for another round of attempted repairs.at first the dealer said the vibration and noise was normal.after showing them a copy of the gm service bulletin ' pi1354c, they now admit to a potential issue.still not solution.
Vehicle was in four when drive low stopped and got out to open a gate heard a lou pop looked back it was rolling backwards went about 200 feet with a trailer hooked to it the trailer flipped around hit the side of the truck made another loud sound and it stopped. We are being told nothing is wrong with it. Another time had it in low four when drive and it kept rolling in park. The vehicle was parked. And when we got to it the gear shift was still in park.
While using a spare key to my 2015 silverado for the entire day, and driving over 70 miles, the "anti-theft" warning light suddenly came on.i continued to drive approx. 10 miles with the light on and while turning off a busy road, across on-coming traffic, the truck completely shut off.no steering, no forward movement, nothing.it virtually went dead!i was able to put the truck in park and try to start it again (thank goodness no traffic coming through at the time).after several attempts it started again and i began to drive around the corner to my home, where it completely shut off again, in front of my driveway.had it towed, as i was nervous about driving it again.the chevy dealership service department was unable to conclude what happened.they testedit with the spare key, and still no sign of any trouble.i am reluctant to drive this truck.
My 2015 silverado has approx 80k miles and the ac blows hot. The dealership found the ac condenser cracked. I understand from reading many gm forums that this is an ongoing issue happening since 2014. Gm has known about the faulty design and still has yet to issue a recall or tsb. I have been quoted a price of 1200 dollars to fix a known issue.
Within 6 weeks i had to replace 3 tires on my truck. I still had 4/32 of were left on these tires that only had approximately 27000 miles on them. I ended up buying a forth tires and had the tires balanced for another hundred dollars.i have all the receipts and i am looking for compensation for inferior tires that were on the truck when ibought it. Chevrolet quality was not there on my tires. This happened over a 6 week period starting 10/20/2017 to 10/28/2017.
Side rail airbagdeployed knock me out and total my vehicle.
I have a 2015 chevy 1500. It is my daily driver,(in alabama) so when my ac stopped working i figured it needed recharged as i do use it quite often. Recharged it and it worked for 2 days. Then out again. So i recharged it and used the dye to see where the leak was located.can not see where a leak is anywhere. My truck is just out of warranty.there are 1000's of complaints, why is nothing done? i understand that ac is not a necessity to some but with a 7 yo that has asthma, living in alabama it becomes a necessity.oh, fyi when your air not working neither does your defog. When driving home at night its so bad you cant see out of the window. I have almost wrecked 4 times bc of it. I did hit a dog bc i couldnt see it..... And to think all the 1000's of people having the exact same problem bc of a flawed design. You may want to take note before paying a lawsuit bc someone lost their life bc of something simple and known.
A/c unit does not work. Recharge the system and it leaks out. Gm/chevrolet knows of the issue and has recalled other models using the same equipment. Not on the chevrolet silverado models.no mention of leaks or issues by the dealership during regular maintenance.on june 20th 2020 i paid to have the system recharged, didnt blow really cold but gradually it got warmer, now it blows hot air.last fall oct 2019 it was not blowing cold air, in february 15 2920 while driving the air seemed to get warmer, could not keep the cab cool. After reviewing recall information and other reviews of issues i see that the $1,100 or more for replacement of certain equipment, plus the long delay because gm/chevrolet has a shortage of the specific parts (back ordered). I think this should be a recall to force gm/ chevrolet to fix this issue they have known about since before my truck was even built.
At 46000 miles the ac unit compressor went bad. I researched this and found it to be a major issue with these gm vehicles. I personally know 4 trucks that have had the same problem. I have to wonder why gm has not recalled this vehicle knowing they have an issue.
Brake pedal gets very hard when driving at slow speeds and in reverse. Makes a ticking sound like the anti lock brakes are kicking in but no dash lights illuminate. Almost rear ended a vehicle travelling 25mph but was able to pull in a parking lot to avoid collision. Truck has 79xxx miles
Ac condenser leaks
The truck was taken to dealership on sept. 24 for recall repair of faulty steering. On oct.1 steering locked up and brakes failed while my daughter was driving and an accident occurred.accident report filed with missouri state police.
It would roll even with the foot on the brake at low speeds faulty air pump had to get air pump, tube, air pump belt,alternator belt, air condition belt that cost me $700.
Breaking at low speed in traffic or a parking lot the breaks grab, skip and the truck vibrates before coming to a stop. Returned truck to glendora chevrolet where purchased.they performed recall n192268490, updated ebcm, wcc:28yn28468172 per receipt they gave me. Vacuum pump was replaced.all this did not correct the break problem to this day.please advise.
Combo 4 pin and 7 pin trailer connection is upside down.this may result in the loss of trailer lights and brakes.with connection upside down the 7 pin door will not hold plug in tightly and cause the brake and ground pins to possible disconnect. Loosing brakes while pulling a heaving load is a serious safety issue.plug needs to be inverted to ensure the door latch holds the plug at the high point and weight of the cord holds the plug in tightlydealer is aware of the issue and gm engineer is aware of the issue..neither has yet to fix.same design exists on 2013 and 2014 silverado's 1500, 2500 and 3500.
Air conditioner blowing hot air.does not hold coolant when replaced or recharged
I'm adding to the growing list of complaints about the ac issues with gm/chevy full-sized vehicles from 2014-2015.as of 5/3/2018, i had noticed my ac only blowing hot air.tried again the following day, same thing.only being 2 years old, i found it incredibly odd that the freon would be gone already.upon doing my research about the problem, i discovered that this is a tremendously egregious known issue with gmc/chevy owners and a recall regarding the problem has still not been issued to correct it.given the fact my vehicle has just fallen out warranty as well, it's incredibly infuriating that i'm now forced to have these repairs come out of pocket and wait nearly a month for the parts to come in.this needs to be addressed immediately by gmc/chevy before the hottest days of summer arrive.
Sunroof shattered while driving down highway. Heard a loud, powerful explosion. The shattered glass was kept in the retractable sunroof cover. Thank god it was closed.there was no overpass that we went under no vehicle in front nor behind us. It was a cloudy cool day temp. Around 50 degrees.
All sound stopped on my truck.radio, turn signal feedback, etc. It was working at end of day but did not work the following morning.i searched and found recall #14315 but your web site says there are no recalls for my vehicle.it has exact same symptoms as described by that recall.i googled symptom and found where someone had disconnected battery for awhile and that fixed it.did for me too but feel the fix in recall 14315 should be applied to my truck as well.
Air conditioning system stopped working only blows hot air. Called dealer about the problem after i learned this has been an ongoingproblem. Chevy will not cover this problem under warranty. When i told them this was an ongoing problem starting with 2014 models i was told they never heard of this. I was all so told that because i don't have all my service work done with them they really don't feel they need to cut me a brake i would have to pay full price for repair.dave mcdermott chevrolet655 main st east haven ct
The accordian piece to the sunroof jammed and tore preventing closing
I am concerned about the excessive shaking/vibration in this 2015 chevy silverado and, thus far, gm customer service and the dealership have no resolution in sight.the problem has been occuring at highway speeds (most notable above 73 mph) since the truck was purchased aug 2015.as they can't identify the cause of the problem, i can't be sure the origin is or is not a safety-reated concern.the dealership has balanced, re-balanced, rotated, and road pressure tested tires to no avail.even tried a new set of tires off of a 2016 model to no avail.as this matter continues and doesn't appear to be tire-related, i'm worried that the issue may be in thesuspension and will, at some point, cause or create a catastrophic failure.
A/c condenser leaking, many complaints online and gm dealers replacing their faulty inventory.
A/c condenser gave out causing window to fog/ same issue with all gm / tahoe / suburban / escalade .life safety issue visibility compromisedi have a 2015 chevy silverado with only 30k on it. This should be a mandatory recall.
As my wife came to a complete stop at a stoplight and as the light turned green, she pressed the gas pedal and the truck would not accerlate. She pressed the gas pedal down to the floor board and still would not accerlate. So due to this the truck slowly rolled foward. She slammed on the brakes and the brakes would not move. Like if they became locked and wouldn't move an inch. At this point she is trying to get off the road to the shoulder, to avoid oncoming traffic. Then she finds that the steering wheel is also locked and can not be turned. It's taking her maximum effort to stop the truck from rolling forward and to veer off the road to avoid other vehicles. She is finally able to stop the vehicle after about 100 yards of effort and waits about 10 minutes, before the brakes and steering wheel would free up. No error message was present the entire time these functions were disabled and after they freed up, it was like if nothing ever happened. No check engine light has ever been on this vehicle. Strong belief this is a manufacturing defect and should have a recall.
7 pin trailer conector is maufactures and install upside down on all silverado trucks since at least 2014 and possilbly 2013.the door holds the plug in; howerver the door flipping down the plug and bouce and become disconnected.this connextion plays a vital roleinlights and braking.both can and will be lostgm egineers are arware of the issue however are not fixingit
Special coverage adjustment bulletin 17336 for ac condenser. Condenser leaks and breaks. Replacement required but replacement equipment sub par and also pron for failure. Chevrolet will not cover cost of replacement of condenser stating that the vehicle with 85,000 miles is not covered. This is a nation wide issue. This vehicle has had a total of 15 recalls on it. I am requesting assistance with the cost of the repair. Due to my allergies and this time of the year driving with the windows down and no ac is affecting my physically. The customer care center for chevorlet is giving me the run around and have been avoiding my claim since 3/03/2020. Today is 3/11/2020. Thus far they have offered to cover only $215 of $879+tax repair that they are aware of is a nation wide issue. Please help.
A/c condensor leaks and a/c stops working this happens just after the manufacture warranty expires my truck ac stop working at 37,688
Air conditioner not working is have a licks
Always had truck garaged but now in driveway and when it rains the floor fills with water
Air conditioner stopped working. There was no support bracket on the hose and it caused it to crack. Replaced and then condenser went out. Known common problem on these trucks to where all the parts are back ordered.
Having grounding issues with vehicle. Whole dash goes blank. Has stalled on highway several times. Have taken it to the dealer they stated that i had to pay $800 and to install it it cost me $1100 and then $256 to go underneath the dash and tighten a bolt i have research this on youtube and it looks as though from the 2014 to 2020 it's an issue to all trucks. Just purchased this and may 2020. On dashboard the alternator indicator shows below 14 volts. And during one of the stollings on the highway and the whole family in the vehicle scared to death. I think this is a great issue that needs to be recalled that i shouldn't have to fix less than six months after purchasing a vehicle. This all happened in the st. Louis area
A/c stopped cooling. Still blowing, but not cooling. Way to new of a truck to have this issue with 100 temps coming soon.
Loss of brakes when driving slow
At about 60,000 miles i noticed my ac not working. I was told that it was going to be very costly to fix and a couple of dealerships near me would not get back to me about price and to to fix it, they told me its not under any warranty. They did tell me it would take 9 hours to fix-book time and the parts would be around $300+. Seems too early for the air conditioning unit to stop working i notice a smell inside the cab and it was from the evaporator coil leaking. This happened in mid spring and just now was told how to submit a complaint. I have not had it repaired yet due to cost and finding someone to do it.
At approximately 45k miles, truck began to shake at 70 mph. Issue only occurs on highways/interstates where 70mph can be driven safely.now has 52k miles. Dealer had accessorized truck with oversize wheels/tires & lift kit.i bought it this way.was smooth until about 45k miles.my tires are still good, but i will replace before 60k milesinternet searching revealed much information regarding "chevy shake" issue with gm full size trucks and suv's. I believe mine is affected by the 'chevy shake' mystery problem. Will be taking to dealer for regular service 7/21/17 and advising them of this issue. They will likely blame it on aftermarket equipment/suspension/wheels/tires, even though the dealership accessorized the truck when new through a specialty shop. I bought warranties that supposedly cover all of the truck, even the stuff dealer had the specialty shop put on it.
70,000 miles and truck needs a condenser. It is a know problem and chevrolet needs to do something about it. It is a 1000.00repair.
Air conditioning not working. Blowing hot due to worn hole in hose (thousands of known issues all with exactly the same symptoms and fixes... E x a c t l y!!!!!!) called chev, the guy said nhtsa tells them what to pay for and what to recall so they're hands are clean of this issue. Pardon????? worn hole? check bad condenser? checkno bracket? checkdealership/manufacturer participation? no way in hell! this is absolutely terrible business and there's no way the attorney general, the better business bureau and anyone else i can call are not going to hear about this. Oh yeah, the a/c never gets used, otherwise i would've had it fixed 20k miles ago under warranty but i didn't know it wasn't working. There's residue on the hoses from the leak which the dealership should've caught but they didn't. Maybe i go that route?
After driving at regular speeds brakes work fine. In stop-and-go traffic feel like no brake pedal, have to press very hard truck 2 get truck to stop.
Kids locked in my truck, in my driveway after remote start. (reproducible)my kids got locked in my car a few weeks ago where the unlock button wasn't working, i thought it was a fluke until it happened to me again. I was getting ready to take my 15 year old son to school.i unlocked the car so he could put his stuff in, and shortly after i remote started the car.my older son was in the car at the time i remote started the car, while i continued to get my younger 4 year old ready in the house. When i came back to the car with my son, my hands were full and i asked my son to unlock the car.he pressed the unlock button and nothing happened, and the door remained locked with him inside.he could not unlock the car doors to get out!(i do have video of this and can reproduce the problem it at any time)let's understand the severity of this issue: what if he got sick in the car, or had to use the bathroom, or medical emergency?what if my son was eating breakfast and choked on something while i was inside for 5-10 minutes getting my younger son ready?[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
A/c compressor locked up while accelerating when driving on freeway going about 75 mph. I know you may not consider ac a safety factor, but when it's 110 degrees outside and your sitting on leather seats, how could that not be a safety concern?
The air conditioning condenser leaks at one of the side welds.this causes loss of air conditioning but also the defroster function so the interior windows fog over and it is difficult to see.this is a known issue (gm changed the condenser design in later years but did not issue a tsb).the cost to have this corrected is anywhere from $880-$1200 dollars depending on the dealer.it is also such a widespread problem that the replacement oem condenser is on backorder for several months.
Upon turning the vehicle on there were no alerts like seat belt warnings, door open, hands free calling, onstar. Also when shutting vehicle off no alarm to indicate keys are in the ignition. Cannot hear if blinker is on. Nothing comes through the radio.this happens on an intermittent basis. Approximately every several months. Sometimes it will start the sheets if i shut the vehicle off then start it back up. Today it didn't do that. At this time my truck has approximately 80,000 miles.also on occasion the service electric breaks have indicated an issue as well.
This picture represents some of the paint loss on the 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 crew cab. I bought this vehicle brand new and have never been in the snow. There's no way that a vehicle should have paint peeling or have exposed metal.
Rear window explodedwhile in driveway
The air conditioning condenser suffered a crack and leaked refrigerant requiring the entire condenser to be replaced. This is a widespread issue with this make and model. Gm has offered extended warranty coverage on this defective part for other makes and models which use the exact same unit, however, they have refused to offer the same coverage to silverado owners. A lack of a/c in the gulf coast region results in extremely high indoor temperatures which pose health and safety risks. Alternative solutions require driving with windows down which pose safety hazards due to reduced awareness resulting from substantial wind noise when traveling at highway speeds.
The third brake light on my 2015 1500 silverado leaked into my headliner. Now there is a brown line all the way across my headliner above the rear window. Even the service guy at chevy said it wouldn't leank anymore. He has had quite a few trucks come through with this issue. The fix was $153.00. How will i know if mold forms due to this? my truck was sitting in my driveway during the rain.
There is a faulty ac condenser component that leaks. This causes all the freon to be spilled out and make the ac blow hot air.
My 2015 silverado began blowing hot air with a/c on. Have had refrigerant added several times and it leaks out in 3-4 days.another service location identified the problem as a bad a/c condenser.looked online and discovered that there are many more people affected by this exact problem.some are saying that there is a recall but my dealer says they are unaware of any problems or recalls.this is being reported as 'widespread failure' so vast that the replacement parts are unavailable due to national backorders.
I bought a gm certified silverado with 20000 mile on it. And the idle vibration and drive vibration are so bad it gives me headaches after driving for any period over an hour.the dealer says this is normal and they are nuts if this is normal. I have contacted chevrolet. But after researching online, there does not seem to be a fix. My truck is unsafe! chevrolet needs you fix these problems.
Drive shaft is out of balance causing it to shimmy on the highway, called gm several time no response to problemtokk back to kupper chevy in mandan ndthey won't fix needs new drive shaft been complaining since 5000 mile now has 54000 and still will not fix
I join a long list of chevrolet truck owners experiencing ac failure far too soon in the vehicle's life. My 2015 silverado 1500 4x4 z71 with 42,000 miles had the ac completely stop working over the weekend under normal driving conditions. The temperature was 82f. Upon inspection at the dealership, it was determined that the condenser had a leak on the top right side and that it would need to be replaced. When i asked about the warranty claim, the service manager explained that he has submitted the claim and that he, " ... Had very little doubt that it would be approved." " we see this a lot," he explained. This is a widely known issue and several owners are paying out of pocket for faulty equipment that should have never been installed on such an expensive vehicle. Gm's "most dependable truck" slogan is worthy of debate.
The vehicle shakes while driving down the road. It shakes all the time above 50 mph. Has shaken since purchased.
Sun visordriver side
When backing up i applied the brakes and the pedal was extremely stiff barely able to stop.
Sunroof shattered while driving down highway. Heard a loud, powerful explosion. The shattered glass was kept in the retractable sunroofcover. Thank god thecover was closed. There was no overpass we went under no vehicle in front nor back. It was a cloudy cool day temp. 50 degrees.
Truck vibrating at highway speeds. Between 65 to 85 mph the tucks has a constant vibration.
My 2015 silverado has approx 80k miles and the ac blows hot. The dealership found the ac condenser cracked. I understand from reading many gm forums that this is an ongoing issue happening since 2014. Gm has known about the faulty design and still has yet to issue a recall or tsb. I have been quoted a price of 1200 dollars to fix a known issue.
The transmission hesitates when shifting in automatic but when in manual mode it shifts fine with no issues. This has been a on going issue and problem the service center for a local dealership can not find the issue. But there is something going on with the transmission.
First and foremost, i'd like to say that i've been completely satisfied with my vehicle up until recently.a little of three years ago, i decided to give up my dodge and switch over to chevy. I liked what they had to offer in the 2015 silverado. Long story short, a few months out of warranty, my ac stopped blowing cold air all of a sudden. I immediately took the truck in to the dealer to have it diagnosed and found out that my condenser had a leak. I thought that this was odd due to the fact that i barely drive the truck, literally. It only has about 28,600miles on it in about 40 months. With that said, i proceeded to do a little research. My findings were that this has been an all to common issue with these trucks since the 2014 design. Is there anyway to get someone within gm to take a closer look at what is obviously some type of flaw or defect in equipment due to poor craftsmanship? you may say that i should've purchased an extended warranty and all but i feel like a component such as a condenser shouldn't be defective so soon either, especially on a low mileage vehicle that's barely out of warranty.even if gm isn't willing to help me, i'd be happy with them fixing the problem for future consumers so that they don't become a "victim" like i have. It seems like this has been a big problem with these trucks and some others but i was never notified of any recalls or anything. While searching online, i found a "special coverage/program" number (17336). It was also along with nhtsa id 10135138.
While driving and traffic my brake pedal gets so hard cannot stop truck
The truck has a constant vibration about 45 mph and increases with frequency as speed is increased as well. Passenger seat shakes and can be felt through entire vehicle. Tires have been replace multiple times with no correction.
My truck had approximately 10 miles when i purchased it in dec 2014 and has been in the shop pretty much ever since.immediately after purchasing the vehicle, i felt a very substantial vibration around 76+ mph.initially, 2 tires were replaced and balanced; that did not correct the problem.then the dealership indicated that gm said i have to put 500lbs in the back of the truck and the vibration will stop; this is not even remotely practical.subsequently, the tires have been rotated and force balanced several times throughout the past 2 yrs.in june 2016, the dealership stated the problem was that the tires were mounted on the rims incorrectly and replaced all four tires and balanced them; the vibration continued. After trying to schedule another appointment with the dealership over the same issue, they will no longer call me back.i have attempted to schedule an appointment at least 8 times within the past month to no avail.several people have indicated the problem is quite possibly the drive shaft b/c the entire truck vibrates while driving down the road.therefore, i took my vehicle to another dealership where they told me i need to rotate and balance the tires.after discussing the history of the truck with them and requested the service dept. Check the drive shaft, they stated the service manager said it is not the drive shaft (which was not inspected to my knowledge) and told me the tires need to be forced balanced and they could not help me.this dealership referred me to another dealership for assistance.i have been fighting this issue for almost 2 years now and cannot get help.further, neither of the dealerships have made me aware of the bulletin and have not tried anything past the replacing & balancing the tires.the vibration is so bad other things in my truck are starting to come loose and vibrate.
Air conditioning doesn't work. Add refrigent and it works for a day or two then stops again. No sign of a leak.
Purchased new 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500 in january of 2016. Experienced a vibration at all speeds from the very beginning of purchase. Vibration gets worse at higher speeds. Vehicle came with steel wheels from the factory. Vibration can be felt in the seat and seen in the center console.vibration is coming from rear of vehicle.replaced wheels and tires with aftermarkets. The aftermarkets were bigger and heavier and made vibration extremely worse. After assuring that i wasn't dealing with a problem with the new wheels and tires, i put the factories back on and took the vehicle to dealership and reported the problem. The vehicle was in the shop for 3 1/2 months. The vehicle failed pico scope tests. They put several new tires on the vehicle, changed both rear axles, and changed ring and pinion in rear end. These steps helped reduce the vibration, but did not totally resolve the issue. They then decided to put aluminum wheels on the truck, which helped reduce the vibration down to barely noticeable. My concern is by putting the lighter wheel on the vehicle to reduce the vibration, they are only masking the problem, since the heavier the wheel/tire assembly, the worse the vibration. They are telling me they do not have to do anything else to the vehicle. General motors has told me they are not going to pursue the issue any further. They tell me they know there is an issue but not sure what it is and since it is not a safety issue they have honored the warranty. How do they know that it's not a safety issue if they don't know what the problem is. I believe they know exactly what the problem is and they are passing it on to the consumer. There was no disclosure of the issues with these trucks upon purchase. I do not feel safe in this truck and fear future problems with the issue. Also, the truck on several occasions has down shifted abnormally causing rpms to rise.
The system that failed is the speedometer display and radio display while driving.this can be dangerous as i do not know the speed i am driving.this can also be dangerous as the display includes the screen for the backup camera that turns off without notice while backing up.the problem has happened many times in my 2015 chevrolet silverado.i have a 2017 chevrolet silverado for a company vehicle and the issue occurs in it, as well.i notified the gm dealership where both vehicles were purchased and they said the screen could be replaced but would be very expensive.no warning lamps or messages occurred.the screen jumps around a lot and occurs at various times (morning, afternoon, warm or cold weather, etc.).
On sept 21 2016 i arrived at my home. I drove up my gravel driveway in d(drive) and slowed to a stop and my truck began to roll backward under my control. I was checking on the ground for lawn damage. The truck shuttered twice, shut off and started to roll backward toward a tree. I quickly regained control with a panic stop. I was able to place the truck in park and restart the truck. I had lost control of the truck.

I park in a 5 level parking garage. Several months ago, i was leaving when i came up to the ramp to the next lower level. I let off on the accelerator before i went from flat to lowering ramp. The truck shifted up to second gear, accelerated and through me toward the vehicle in front. The truck went out of my control. If i were not a safe driver i would have struck the vehicle. This issue has occurred another time as well.there have been other problems which are numerous. I will address them individual in further complaints.

The contact owns a 2015 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 10 mph, the accelerator pedal was depressed and the vehicle accelerated in excess. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the wiring harness, part of the transmission, and multiple other parts needed to be replaced.

A reproducible condition exists when the driver removes their foot from the gas pedal, then quickly engages cruise control, then pushes the minus (-) button repeatedly to decelerate the cruise control, that the vehicle cruise locks up and flips back and forth between the desired speed and the original set speed, and does not decelerate. This can occur for several seconds, where the driver believes they are decelerating the cruise control but it is locked at its original setting, which could lead to an accident.

Transmission problems. When reversing up a driveway the truck will stall as the gas is pressed it will rev up but not go anywhere, then jump into reverse as if the petal was floored. Also some times when entering the highway the transmission doesn't shift into the correct gears also jumping into gear which could cause accidents.

2015 chevy silverado. Consumer writes in regards to rear window shattering while driving. *ld
Excessive vibrations while driving. Mainly on the highway. Been to 2 different dealers with no resolution to my issues! don't feel safe with driving the truck i think my chevy has the a case of the chevy shakes! please help me
Truck began to have the chevy shakes about the 12k mile point and has increasingly gotten worse the more mileage the truck gains ( currently 14k miles) i have called and talked to technicians about this and they ensured me that its normal. I've owned several trucks and i have never not been able to go over speeds of 55 without having terrible shakes and wobbles in my truck. Chevrolet needs to address this properly and fix the issue or buy back the trucks that are affected by this issue, when a person spends 50k + on a vehicle this should be the last thing the should have to worry about is feeling safe in their vehicle. I will never buy another chevrolet product again due to not only this but a number of other issues i have with the truck including hard shifting and extreme lack of power.
Vibration in steering wheel between 45-50 mph also increased vibration when going around curves.vibration worse at highway speeds 65-75 mph. Vibration also increases when going around curve.been to dealer keepblowing me off
Within 6 weeks i had to replace 3 tires on my truck. I still had 4/32 of were left on these tires that only had approximately 27000 miles on them. I ended up buying a forth tires and had the tires balanced for another hundred dollars.i have all the receipts and i am looking for compensation for inferior tires that were on the truck when ibought it. Chevrolet quality was not there on my tires. This happened over a 6 week period starting 10/20/2017 to 10/28/2017.
The 2015 chevrolet silverado high country comes standard with a goodyear eagle ls-2, size: p275/55r20. The wet and dry traction of this model of goodyear tire is poor at best.on wet road surfaces, the tires break traction on corners and under light acceleration.snow traction is non-existent even though they are mud and snow rated.these tires are a safety hazard.
At highway speeds between 58 and 74 mph, there is a vibration that shakes the truck. My first trip to the dealership, they said 3 of the 4 tires needed to be replace, which was covered under warranty. The truck had approximately 3500 miles, when i took it the first time. The problem was stable for a few thousand miles, and then started to get bad, i called and scheduled an appointment, and the truck has been at the dealership for over a week now, and they have replace the one tire that wasn't orginally replaced.they also said they are looking at the exhaust system.
My silverado has developed a vibration around 4-5000 miles from new. The vibration starts around 60mph and increases in intensity up to and beyond 80mph, the legal speed limit in texas. The vibration can be felt throughout the cabin in the seats, center console, steering wheel, doors and gas pedal. On my last 3+ hour drive i had to stop midway because the vibrations gave me a headache. That's never happened in any other vehicle ever. After 3 visits to the dealer and multiple road force balance and tire replacements later the dealer states the truck is operating normal and is in spec. This is unacceptable for a brand new vehicle and i'm working on taking it to the next level with gm to deal with the problem.
Continental tire tread peeling or coming off tire in chunks. Feel this is very unsafe to drive. Truck purchased new in 2015. Current mileage is 18,700 miles.
After purchasing vehicle, the truck shakes extremely bad on highway, i notified dealer the same day and they have come to the conclusion after performing a road force test that the wheels are either bent or damaged. The shake is so bad it is hard to hold wheels steady and tire almost feels like it is going to come off. The dealer is stating that they refuse to pay for the cost to fix the safety problem even under warranty. I have driven back and forth an hour each way to dealer over 5 times now and they do not want to fix the situation.
The truck vibrates crazy at highway speeds.it's been into the shop 4 times for same problem.they keep trying to balance the tires.the problem persists no matter what the dealer does.this vibration could be a real problem.
My 2015 silverado 1500 is equipped with goodyear wrangler ls-2 tires, in size 265/65r18.when driving in wet weather, taking a mild right or left hand turn canresult in complete loss of traction, resulting in the truck spinning 90 to 180 degrees.this happens at low speeds - you do not have to be driving at a speed that most people would deem as unsafe.in wet weather the tires act as though you are driving on ice, very little wet weather traction, resulting in the possibility of loss of control.i have experienced this at least 6 times in the last 3 months, and have little confidence in these tires.i feel they are a safety hazard, and i am concerned that i could be involved in an accident as a result of the lack of wet weather traction with these tires.
I have the special rally edition of this truck in which comes with 22" black aluminum rims. After 33k miles and 18 months of ownership with only on road driving. 3 of the 4 low profile rims had to be replaced due to significant cracking. At first the symptom was vibration at highway speed. Then my right front passenger tire would not hold a bead to the rim. During the inspection of the right front the crack was noted and then all four tires were check. This lead to the replacement of 3 out of 4. I'm still waiting for chevy to clarify if this will be a warranty replacement. All maintenance on the vehicle was done by a authorized dealer.
Since i bought the truck new i have been experiencing vibration in steering and cab of truck. Been in the dealer 5 times for this problem. Repairs included 14 set of tires , balance drive shaft, replaced ring and pinion in differential, installed hydraulic bushings in steering rack . The truck still vibrates. This is a concern in safety if you dont know what the problem is how can you say its not a safety issue. Very displeased with general motors . There is alot of complaints about this issue and should be looked at more carefully
When taking a long, rather sharp turn on the highway, the vehicle was resisting against the turn making it difficult to maneuver the vehicle.at the same time, the brakes began to initiate when the pedal was stepped, but immediately became very hard and could barely slow or stop the vehicle.almost hit the vehicle in front due to the delay and difficulty in braking.
Truck shakes severely when driving at speeds above 70 mph on many different road types. This problem started not too long after i got my truck new. After complaining about it the service department said this is "standard 22 inch wheel vibration." after i had about 35000 miles on it the vibration got so bad i couldn't stand to drive on the freeway. Took it back to the dealer and they said the tires were wore out even though there was still plenty of tread. Had another shop look at it and they found one of the wheels was ever so slightly bent. Took it back to the dealer to confirm. They sold me a new wheel, the problem didn't go away or change in any way. I bought new tires as they recommended, problem was still there but not so severe until after driving a few thousand miles. The more miles i put on the tires the worse the vibration gets. Took it back into the dealer again recently, they keep telling me it's standard vibration for 22 inch wheels. I know this is bogus because i know a few people with the exact same wheels and tires that don't have the shaking problem, they can drive as fast as they want and it's smooth. Everybody that rides with me asks what is wrong with my truck. How can i convince the dealer that there is an actual problem?
At slow speed, while maneuvering into a tight parking spot, brakes antilock braking kicked in and made the brake pedal very stiff and preventing application of the brakes causing the truck to roll forward almost hitting the parked car before coming to a stop.this happened twice in the same day.this is a well known and well documented issue related to the design of the abs sensor and braking system on the chevy models and recalls from about 20 years ago.this truck is a mn vehicle.
While in motion, i've noticed a shaking coming from the rear end of my 2015 chevy silverado 1500 double cab. My truck sits on factory 20 inch rims. I've had the wheels balanced when i replaced the tires. Shaking continues. Shaking more noticeable after reaching speeds of 60 m.p.h. And above. I've been told by the service manager of the dealer i purchased the truck from that it is a known issue but there is no fix or solution. The shaking first started after the truck reached 10,000 miles and has not gotten any better in the past 5,500 miles. The problem is persisting and possibly getting worse.
On 3-18-19 at approximately 1600 hours we were traveling north on i 84 near newburgh, ny.i was driving a 2016 chevrolet 2500 silverado (45,000 miles) towing a 2019 grand design 5th wheel rv.we were traveling in the travel lane when a pickup pulled alongside honking his horn, the driver was pointing at the camper. I pulled over and discovered the cable holding up my spare tire broke, the spare dropped to the pavement bouncing under the camper. I did a quick repair got off the highway and spent the night in a motel.the next morning i spent 2 hours repairing the camper enough to get it to our residence in maine. Damage repair bill to the rv was $9100.00. I brought the truck into quirk chevrolet bangor me where i purchased it new and their mechanics inspected the tire hoist.they could not explain why the cable frayed and broke. The spare was inspected before our trip south in feb.and was securely in place with no movement. The cable was in new condition with no rust. I dealt with gm customer service gave them accident reports and all info needed. May 5th gm sends out esis field inspector ron yeager. Mr. Yeager states he has never seen this before on such a new vehicle. Approximately a month later i'm in contact with gm they deny the claim for repairs but have no explanation as to the cause.this spare tire system on gm trucks has long been known for its failures.usually the cables rust in place and you can't get the tire down when needed. I've always owned gm trucks and usually place the spare in the truck bed due to this poor system. If the rv was not behind my truck that 65lb spare could have done severe damage to the vehicles/persons traveling behind me.
