Defect Description:
SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I was driving down the interstate stuck in slow moving traffic going 55 in a 70 in Jacksonville, FL. The Chevy suddenly lit up like a dang Christmas tree, parking brake service, check engine light, lane assist, and EVAC all flashing on the screen. Everytime I hit clear it like a new warning popped up. It started to drive super rough as in bumpy, loud and hesitant. I parked it, turned it off. Waited maybe an hour since I went to class, then came back to start it. Issue was still there. I took it to the dealership who seemed more interested in buying it than repairing it, they said it could be a number of things and estimated 10k even though they couldn’t tell me exactly what was wrong. They knew, they just wouldn’t say. Anywho, $100 later for a wacky diagnosis, I left to take the truck to an actual mechanic, who stated the lifters failed which caused a bent rod, which then damaged the cam shaft. We had just bought the truck outright for 27k three months prior and only driven it 1,500 miles. It was estimated to be anywhere between 12-15k to fix. Which we didn’t have that money and personal loans are too high so we traded it in and took a loss of 17k while being thankful that no one was injured driving this thing. The truck didn’t even have 80,000 miles yet. It was at 75,000 or 76,000. Truck engines shouldn’t fail that soon or fail at all and this is a common safety issue with this truck. If you have time, google the main issues for this truck and you’ll see several posts about people complaining about their truck doing the same and having to do a computer deletion to get the engine to function correctly to prevent this issue.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
Was at a red light after a very short drive, as soon as the light turned green I let off break hit gas and felt a huge kick that felt as if I was rear ended. I let off the gas and another big kick happened. Check engine light came on and dashboard read “Service ECS and Service parking break”. Truck would not accelerate and I was stuck in the middle of a very busy intersection. Turned truck off turned back on and it allowed me to at least accelerate and get out of the intersection but the truck was revving at high RPMs and not going faster than 20mph. I’m assuming truck went into limp mode. Got truck to mechanic where they said all the codes were TRANSMISSION CODES. Truck was then towed to Monterey transmissions in Stuart, FL where they stated it was confirmed a new transmission would be need. They explained that there is a recall for 462 thousand 2019 chevy Silverado 1500s. But my VIN is not associated with this claim. Why? When I have the same valve body that has been religiously failing on all other 2019 Chevy Silverado’s. All this occurred on [XXX]. Vehicle will be available for inspection as it is undriveable. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
This truck has very low miles (22,900) and has broken down on me 4 different times over several years. It will randomly slam into 2nd gear and I will almost loose control as the rear wheels will almost lock up. Then the vehicle will barely move even at WOT. This has caused me to almost be in accidents and is very unsafe. GM knows there is several issues with this 8 speed transmission and cannot resolve it. I am afraid to be in an accident because this thing is so unreliable in it's operation. GM needs to be forced to address this issue. There are multiple TSBs on this transmission that claim to be collecting data and investigating the cause of issues dating back to 2020. Time for a repair!

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
The valves, pistons, head gaskets are all affected and malfunctioned. They caused burning of the oil and loss of coolant. I took it to the sister dealership of where I purchased it to track the leak and they stated that it was fixed. Upon picking it up and driving it to my home and then right back to the dealership (apprx 12 miles) the truck was making big enought plumes to where it was making other operators pull over or cough. I was following behind the truck to video record and it was producing so much I could not see and had to close my vents to not cough. Our oil said 65 % but decided to check it and there was barely any oil present. Had it towed to the dealership and after picking it up it was only worse than before. This is a safety issue. An emissions issue also. Thank you.

The valves, pistons, head gaskets are all affected and malfunctioned. They caused burning of the oil and loss of coolant. I took it to the sister dealership of where I purchased it to track the leak and they stated that it was fixed. Upon picking it up and driving it to my home and then right back to the dealership (apprx 12 miles) the truck was making big enought plumes to where it was making other operators pull over or cough. I was following behind the truck to video record and it was producing so much I could not see and had to close my vents to not cough. Our oil said 65 % but decided to check it and there was barely any oil present. Had it towed to the dealership and after picking it up it was only worse than before. This is a safety issue. An emissions issue also. Thank you.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Traveling on the highway at 70 mph the rear wheels (brakes) locked up nearly causing a collision. I found a couple of recalls notices for 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500, but nothing posted for 2019 Chevy Silverado. The vehicle was taken immediately to the dealership for evaluation and repair. The tow/haul mode light blinked on and then off. At no time was the tow haul mode manually engaged. My understanding is the vehicle’s Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) software could have an error that should be covered under a recall. Upon inspection and repair the dealership found codes for the brake system control module lost communication with multiple modules and found low voltage codes. They replaced the battery and updated the BSCM. I believe Chevrolet should extend the recall to 2019 models and hopefully this report will cause action to be taken and prevent accidents in the future.
