SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I keep on getting the Service Brake System warning, even when I am not pulling a trailer. When I am pulling a trailer the warning comes on and I lose all braking on the trailer and it usually blows the trailer brake fuse. This has been happening intermittently for the last two years and now is more frequent. Now I heard there is a recall on the same scenario but my VIN number is not included. Now what?

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
There is an issue with the transmission. My vehicle had started shifting erratically and became very clunky. At highway speeds, my truck will shutter and shift up and down for no reason while remaining at a constant speed. I took it to a certified mechanic and I was told it is a matter of time before my transmission completely fails. I have an invoice confirming these claims. This is a very wide spread issue with these 8-speed transmissions. I was told by the mechanic that the 2020-2024 models of the EXACT SAME TRUCK are now receiving recalls on the exact same transmission yet the 2019s are being overlooked.

The contact then observed condensation on the ground under the engine compartment. The contact then used the UV light to locate the leak and observed that the high-pressure oil cooling line was severed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 125,000.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
A couple months ago, my wife was backing down a sloped driveway the brakes gave out and would not stop the truck. She had to push the brake extremely hard to get it to stop and the service brake assist light came on briefly. It then went off and the truck's brakes came back. It happened to her one other time in a similar situation going slow in a driveway. Today I was driving and was slowing down coming to a stop sign moving forward when the brakes gave out so I had to push the brakes extremely hard to come to a stop which felt like they were fighting back and I almost hit the person in front of me. The service brake assist light also came on. There are known recalls on this part in prior years of this same vehicle and others. This recall should be expanded to 2019 Chevy Silverado's as well. I should not have to pay to fix a known issue.

SUSPENSION
Potential Consequences:
The sway bar detached from the frame running down the road due to a faulty installation completed by the production line. My wife heard a clunking sound and recognized instability in the vehicle during turns she immediately stopped driving it until it could be evaluated. Apparently during manufacture the mounting holes for the sway bar were threaded too big for the bolts used so they installed helicoil repairs into the frame which failed allowing the sway bar to detach. I have pictures from the dealership showing the failure and chevy is trying to weld a nut into the frame to be able to reattach the assembly at my expense.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Rupture of Oil Cooler Lines. NHTSA previously completed a safety field investigation. GM issued a bulletin to their dealerships (only). Has both safety and environmental impacts. Vehicle suddenly losses oil pressure and provides a warning light to turn engine off. This will strand the driver wherever and whenever it should occur. I have spoken with GM, they are aware of the problem, but will not recall for the problem. This scenario also exposes the environment to the sudden loss of oil to the ground and surrounding area.
