The brake pedal got extremely hard while backing up and hooking up to a trailer. The truck wouldn't stop and I ran into the trailer and almost ran over my wife. The vacuum pump ticks like it is about to destroy itself. The truck has 70k miles.
1.)the exhaust fluid system warning appears on the dash even after being filled. Warns of reduced speed. Occurs erratically sitting or in motion. Dec 24, 2018 2.) trailer/tow assist alarm rings even though not towing anything and system not engaged. Happens erratically while sitting or in motion. Since june 2018 3.) alarm chimes are extremely loud in vehicle upon entering vehicle and during alarms despite adjusting volume to lowest setting in the settings menu. Happens whenever the alarm chimes. Since june 2018
Windshield wipers intermingling to the point I have to put the fuse out of the fuse box to get them to shut off even when the vehicle is shut off while interminting no high beams will work unless you hold the wiper/turn signal lever forward. So to use windshield wiper I have to put the fuse in tduse box then put it out when I'm at my destination. While the wipers are interminting the trailer break service indacter ding and keep popping up on the service screen saying either service or it just pop up trailer break indacter as if I put the trailer bottom to add more break no trailer is attached when this is happening driving down the road it just keep ding or poping up on the screen
When towing a 15,000 pound 5th wheel camper at highway speeds, the truck's trailer brake system and stabilitrac system will (without any warning) shut off, leaving the driver without any way to activate the trailer brakes. Neither system will re-activate without first stopping truck, shutting it off, unplugging the camper 7 pin, and then driving about a 1/2 mile. This issue first occurred at approximately 24,000 miles and continues to this day. The truck now has 44,000 miles. Chevrolet has looked at the truck twice, but was unable to determine what the issue is. I have isolated the problem to occurring when I pass under certain low hanging high voltage power lines. There are two locations where the problem consistently occurs when I pass under the power lines in either direction. Replicating the problem shouldn't be an issue.
Takata problems, clutch in air condiioning units..freezing up , eats belts their is a flaw it will cause you to have asma attack from rush of hot air in vehicle..dangerous.,..breaks are squeeking when pulling out n driving..notice tread looks uneven in front. Peeling paint on doors
Lost trailer brakes and trailer lighting when on rough roads due to upside down trailer wiring plug receiver on truck. Door opens down instead of up as in the past and 7 wire rv plug is too heavy to stay plugged in all the way. Very dangerous when going down a hill with a loaded trailer. Dealer said yes they have had complaints but they can't seem to duplicate the problem and nothing from gm for service bulletins. We have 3 hd2500 silverados 2015 & 2016 and all have the same problem. Get tired seeing message service trailer wiring. Can be set off by turns or bumps.
While towing, break warning light came on. Had no trailer breaks and had to stop pull off road. Shut down as per manuel and restart. That corrected the problem. This could have been a serious issue if we had been on a steep downhill grade!
A warning message comes on the dash telling the driver there is a issue with the trailer brakes, or wiring system. The trailer brakes become inoperable when this comes on. We have contacted gm with the issue, both at the dealer level and at the corporate level; and they insist it is a problem with our trailers. The same trailers are used with older chevrolet trucks without incident. We have also been informed by gm that the 2015 silverado 2500's are equipped with a more sensitive trailering system. When the connection becomes wet during inclement weather, or the truck hits a bump; and the connector loses contact momentarily the message will illuminate. Resulting in the loss of trailer brakes. This is a serious safety issue.
