No one else was involved I automatically called dealership told them what happen filed a crash report and tow truck took truck back to dealership I contacted GM snd they sent an investigator to look at it but denied my claim said it was not a Manufactur defect.. so no one is wanting to fix my truck now it’s still under warranty with less than 19000 miles on it... and if I was to pay out my pocket to fix it I feel that it will happen again cause the freeze did something to the electrical brake system.. the truck is a year and 4 mts old.

Truck was purchased brand new. Since I first got it I've had problems with the backup camera flashing, going completely blank, and giving an error to service rear camera system. Always occurs while in reverse. Dealership has tried fixing issue several times and now states this safety issue is normal in their vehicles. 11/25/19 dealership replaced back up camera due to lines flashing through screen while backing up. Screen frequently went blank and would also give 'service rear vision system' error. 01/09/20 backup camera system continues to flash, go blank, and give error message. Dealership stated camera was tested and functioning as intended. 10/22/20 same issues persist with backup camera system. Dealership verified problem and replaced camera assembly on 12/14/20. 01/27/21 same problems persist. Dealership updated system and claimed not to be able to reproduce problem. While picking up vehicle flashing occurred before I even left the lot. Dealership requested I remove amp (installed long after problems started occurring; have documentation) before further diagnostics could be performed. 02/26/21 dealership said they checked other trucks in their lot which have the same issue. Says a voltage drop in the electrical system is what's causing the issue and stated there is no fix because this is a normal operation. 03/05/21 problems persist. Dealership built a new electrical harness and replaced radio system. Problem still continues. 03/09/21 talked to gm customer care. They state the safety issue with the backup camera flashing and going blank is 'operating as designed.' 03/11/21 customer care stated vehicle is performing properly and as expected even though back up camera system still having problems. Says there's nothing else they will do for me to fix the issue at this time.

1.drivetrain issue: at the 1st. Start of the day, when shifting into d (drive gear) ; upon accelerating, the trucks transmission drops off between 1st and 2nd gear as if it were pausing for 1-2 seconds, then truck surges forward issue started the day I drove off the lot. Thought it was truck just working out a glitch, but has always persisted. 2. Electrical issue: power mirrors; when power mirrors are folding inward mirrors do not close at the same time, started the day I drove off the lot. As time has passed it now has become an even larger issue, the power motor in mirror runs continually after it has been open or closed as well as mirror tilting when in reverse. Very distracting. 3. Collision censor: issue started within last 90 days; I can be driving down the road/ highway at any time with no other obstacles in my area, nothing around my truck on any of the four sides,truck will sound warning alarm as well as the display in the dash. I make sure all censors are all clean of any dirt-ice-snow, very troubling when driving as it makes one think there is on coming obstacles.

Had my truck parked for 5 hours at my grandparents went to leave and had no power steering and the service power steering message came on the dash when I started it in the driveway. I checked the power steering fluid and it was full. So I turned the truck off and let it sit for a few minutes and started it back up again and power steering was still out. I turned the truck off again and let it sit for a few minutes started it back up and the power steering was still out but I was able to steer easier than before so I drove home. Also at the same time the service ESC message came on along with the light on the dash. The second time restarting the truck the service ESC message and light went away. The recall that was to fix this issue had already been completed on my truck. I have been having transmission issues as well where the truck will jerk into second gear and when slowing down from 2nd to first it will jerk again. Took it to the dealership and they said there was no bulletins on this and nothing they can do. I asked the service guy then why does the transmission shift rough if there is nothing wrong? I quote "the new transmissions in these trucks are supposed to shift that way".

The truck was driven to the store, it was parked for roughly 20 mins. There was no issue with driving to the store. Upon returning to the truck and starting it in the store parking lot the digital display indicated that power steering service was required and ESC service was required. After seeing this the driver tried to turn the wheel but had no power steering so they turned the truck off and let it sit for two minutes. The truck was restarted and the same fault information was displayed. The driver turned the vehicle off again, waited one to two minutes again, and restarted. The same faults were shown. The driver referenced the owners manual in an attempt to troubleshoot the problem. There was no solution in the manual. The truck was then driven back to the house 1.9 miles with no power steering. The truck was at the dealership service center and received services one week prior to this incident. The dealership did not say or show any faults during its services. Had this happened while the vehicle was moving and the driver did not have the strength to turn the wheel without assistance this could have been extremely dangerous.

Add me to the service ESC group.... 12600 miles 2019 silverado 5.3 this happened after the recall was completed at my local chevy dealer, the truck through code p25a2 (the engine and transmission system is not performing as expected. An issue has been detected in the engine electrical system, including the charging and starting system that monitors and controls the engine starting system and 12v battery charging system. If the charge system light stays on, or comes on while driving, there may be a problem with the electrical charging system. Driving while this light is on could drain the battery. Several other lights came on as well, tc, break towing ect. A message stating use caution, do not drive over 62 MPH also came on. During this the breaks became mushy and the truck was difficult to stop. I will be taking the truck back to the chevy dealership in hopes they can fix the issue before myself or another person gets hurt in a crash caused by these issues.
