I am filing a complaint regarding an electrical fire in the junction box of my 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500. The issue began when the front passenger side marker light would not turn off. I disconnected the battery overnight to troubleshoot the problem. However, when I reconnected the battery the next morning, an electrical fire occurred in the fuse junction box under the hood. At the same time, the engine unexpectedly attempted to turn over and start on its own. I immediately disconnected the battery again to stop the fire. Upon inspection, I found that several wires, plugs, and the top half of the junction box had sustained significant damage.

The radio/ my link is way to bright and there is no option to dim it. This makes an eye distraction and hard to see the road at night. there are many post about this concern online.

When you put the truck in reverse, the rear back up camera display is always extremely bright, regardless of the setting of the dimmer switch or automatic dimmer settings. This causes a safety issue at night when backing up, as the driver's night vision is completely diminished as soon as you put the truck in reverse. The display becomes so bright the driver loses their night vison and is also unable to use their mirrors.

When driving my 2017 chevy silverado at lower speeds my steering wheel locks up when turning bringing my truck to an abrupt stop, once in the middle of a street. While the steering wheel locks all the electrical and lights on the inside of the truck shut off and on and my stabilitrak message pops on my screen followed by service trailer brake. It started happening just here and there about a month ago but now it is happening every day. Im scared to drive my truck this is getting dangerous! Going to have to take it into the dealership asap.

While driving at low speed example turning into a parking spot, making a u-turn (onto major roadway) coming to a stop the vehicle shuts down losing all power lights engine shuts off. Stereo presets are gone you have to throw the vehicle into park and restart it making it a very scary vehicle. A couple warnings come up on the dic. Check stability track and open and close driver side window.

The truck has inadequate peripheral illumination while driving on dark winding roads. .when making turns you cannot see the the road in front of the truck. When going straight its difficult to see the shoulder depth of the road. .this is a serious safety issue that needs to be addressed with this model. The 2019 models have much better headlight designs that address this problem.. The 2017 chevrolet silverado 1500 lt that I have does not. The dealer service writer and I walked around their lot and compared the new models headlights to mine. He called me back the next day and said they did not have any new lighting replacements or repairs for this model. My truck is still under warranty. It's down right scary to drive on dark winding roads at night.

Headlights are not very good at all. I have adjusted them and then other drivers bright light me. I've tried everything to be able to see better at night but nothing has worked for me.
