ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
(1). Entire Electrical failure. Initial investigation revealed Negative Batter Post and Cable extremely Hot. The Truck was operating perfectly and had just sat overnight. This issue was first detected about 1 month prior, when, after a 3 Hour drive, I got and when I returned, there was "Nothing". Disconnected Battery Cables, touched thwm together fo 30+ seconds and everything worked perfect. (2). The first event, I was in the Middle of the Arizona Desert, almost 90 miles from the nearest population. (3), Unable to Intentionally Reconstruct this problem. There was No Check engine light. HOWEVER - in the first event, the Stabili-Trak Light illuminated and had to pull to the side of the road to apparently let it reset. (4). Took it into the Dealer who simply stated "since there was No Check Engine Light, it would be a waste of money, since I had driven it in". They did not take a formal report. (5). Other than the initial issue with the Stabili-Trak light, prior to the first incident, 2/12 Hours later, there were NO advanced warnings. In the 2nd event, the Truck ran perfectly, parked it overnight and when I went to start it in the morning, NOTHING.

Trailer brake system is continuing to show a service warning on the dash. Noticed the problem when my battery kept draining over night. Then the service trailer brake system light came on and won’t go away. I don’t have any modifications done to the vehicle and I bought it used almost 6 months ago with 80,000 miles. The service light comes on every time you crank the truck. GM service bulletins are reporting that it is a wiring harness that is defective. This should be addressed as a recall. It is unsafe to pull any type of equipment as well is causing my battery to drain over night to where I’m having to jump the truck off just to crank it

The campaign numbers for this recall are 19V645 and 20V603. I want me vehicle added to the list so I can have it repaired by the dealer before an accicdent occurs. This event has occurred multiple times in my vehicle over the past 18 months/30,000 miles.
