2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500: battery drain or dead battery

Filed Dec 14, 2025 · Engine · WA

I was driving to work in the morning and started to accelerate to the speed limit of 45, and at about 35mph my truck completely shut off. I tried to push the start button while coasting with no avail. I pulled to the shoulder and tried to start it and it would slowly crank similar to a dead battery. I towed it home, then tried to start it later in the day and it started no issues, however ever since then there is a knocking noise from the lower end. I have had it parked for a few weeks and Monday December 15th it will go in to a Chevy dealership for a diagnostic appointment. No there was no lights or warnings related to this, and this did put my life in danger being stranded on the shoulder of a road with limited room to pull off too early in the morning dark out.

When I shift the vehicle to “Park” and shut off the engine, a “Shift to Park” message comes on the dash and the electric components won’t turn off and the vehicle chimes until it will randomly stop. Sometimes it does not stop and will drain the battery completely. This happened once at a wedding venue in the middle of nowhere and I was left stranded. No matter how many times I restart the vehicle and shift to different gears, the message continuously comes up and only way to avoid battery draining is to disconnect it, which is a major inconvenience.

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.
