The electrical system randomly shuts down. It has done this multiple times in the past several months. Everything shuts off, including engine, power steering, etc. It has done this both while sitting idle and when driving. Most times, it will come back on after a few seconds but I have had to coast off the roadway, and have it towed back home. This is VERY DANGEROUS!!! Fortunately, the times it has shut down while driving has been during daylight hours because if this were to happen at night, I would lose all lights, therefore making a serious crash almost certain.
Having problems with braking at slow speeds, pedal sticks to the floor when reversing into parking space or pulling up in drive thru lines at slow speeds etc.. no problems braking at regular speeds.

2015 Chevy Silverado, 62,300 miles. While driving at highway speeds. The air condition compessor locked up. Causing the engine to die and causing the loss of power steering and power brakes. I was unable to brake in a timely manner and had to swerve to avoid stopped traffic. It seems there are thousands complaining of the same issue online. There was no warning. I have contacted the dealer and they say there is no recall.

Trailer Brake System (Dismiss) has come on twice now in the driver information center screen.
Trailer brakes went out while towing a car
Service Trailer Brake light comes on continuously making it very distractive when driving no matter if you dismiss the message on the dash.
Transmission slipping, set cruise control and it would engage for some time and then disengage without warning. I followed all maintenance requirements for the transmission like flushing the transmission at the appropriate mileage.
While driving my dash and power steering would go out suddenly without any warning and last for several minutes before regaining electrical power. Engine would still be operating and I was still able to drive it but I lost all power and electrical indicators when it would happen.
I have been waiting for nearly a year to have this recall fixed by GM! All my dealer's service people do is shrug their shoulders and tell me I'll get a letter when they have the parts. How much longer do I need to wait?

I am having issues with my transmission. When I first turn on the truck in the morning, put it in gear, and lightly accelerate the truck accelerates way too fast then cuts out the power. It is enough to throw me forward or back in my seat and it honestly is frightening. I am also having problems with the vehicle shifting incorrectly causing me to have no power or a sudden surge of power. This is usually when i have slowed down and them am trying to accelerate again. Also, When I am slowing down to stoplights, the vehicle will occasionally shift down to too low of a gear and act like i am slamming on the brakes. I have had several close calls with this truck due to this issue. Gm knows about the issue and has refused to recall the vehicles that are having these problems. They are recommending changing out the fluid multiple times at the owners costs. This has resulted in several class action lawsuits. They also have gone to the lengths of changing warranty coverage to no longer include abnormal shifting. This is not safe. This is causing accidents and they are actively covering it up. Please help the hundreds of thousands of people that are having issues. We need your help, I need your help and gm is no longer standing behind their vehicles.

Service trailer brake system alert is going off constantly during driving the vehicle. I was not towing anything and have only ever towed something one time with this truck. The alert produces a chime and flashes the alert over the speedometer screen.

While driving, engine running - the whole electrical system including the engine just stop - totally dead including lack of power steering. Several times it was a fraction of a second, and then all systems came back on and engine resumed running. Another time, I had to coast off the road and try to steer without PS. After waiting a bit, the engine restarted. Even though you only ask for 1 date, this has happened several times. Most recent was yesterday, 5/2/2022. Before that it was March 13, 2022. Before that, I believe it was several years ago.
At low speed I get a hard brake pedal like low vacuum ( booster pump failure) maybe.
The truck just shut down for no reason,then can not turn it or can not use the brakes to stop it,then will not start,then it will start in time.
Steering and braking stops working during low speed. AC stops working and several components flash a warning message Trailer hitch and stabilizer and engine light appears sporadically. It shows that I do not have recalls but I believe the repairs in the past were not done correctly. old software or a electrical short from an faulty part!!!!!

Currently, the AC is no functioning properly. Mechanic states that the hose leading to the compressor that's mounted towards the radiator is cracked and he can see oil from the AC system that has leaked out over time. Parts are being ordered to replace and repair so that the AC system will work properly. Improper AC function is not acceptable during the spring/summer months, and AC is needed to be able to cool the vehicle down There were no warning lamps or messages. We determined the system was low on coolant because it was not cooling properly.

The vehicle is experiencing a low speed brake failure where the brakes either pulse like ABS brakes or there is no brake at all and you have to push hard to the floor to get brakes. I have seen some reviews that say this was a recall but I did not find anything on your site and I have not received a notice.
2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT/LTZ Double Cab 5.3 liter v8. Electrical short to power in underhood fuse block part number 84303175. Passenger side brake/tail light stay on constantly even when vehicle is shut off and key is out of ignition. Driver side brake/tail light works fine, customer had to disconnect harness to prevent battery from going dead. Hare Chevrolet Dealership, Noblesville Indiana, found short to power in under hood fuse block. Invoice: 340227 Part: 84303175 Customer pay 674.17 replacement of under hood fuse block. * MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN *
Slow speed braking is severely affected upon engagement, such as backing out of my driveway, or maneuvering into a parking spot. The brake pedal will pulse as if the ABS system is activating, however, upon reaching/ keeping idle speed, the brake pedal will become very rigid and the pedal is very hard to compress downward. Once the vehicle is stopped, and power is applied again with the gas pedal, normal braking is restored.
Air conditioning compressor busted and spilled oil and metal shards all over road. Condenser coil sprung a leak in 2019. Heavy vibrations in cabin when driving interstate speeds. Oil cooler lines leaking causing oil leaks and now I am noticing a leak on the radiator! Leak on the inner drivers side axle seal.
At low speeds, like idle, brakes do not want to work. Very hard to press.
The service trailer brake system alarm goes off constantly while driving when trailer is not attached to vehicle. You can dismiss the warning but the alarm comes back. It’s a loud audible beeping that takes your eyes off the road.
I’ve only owned my 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 for 8 months now and I’ve been noticing my paint starting to bubble and I popped one and water came pouring out I have also had to change my left rear turn signal twice my top light socket keeps melting and you can just buy a pig tail you have to get all three light sockets and they are 136.89 and the sound in the truck don’t also work if the truck sits longer then 5 hours I have no sound and I’ve replaced battery already I also will get a clicking noise from under the steering wheel when the truck turns off it lasts from 1 min to 15 mins and stops thank you
On an interstate offramp facing downhill moving at a slower speed 15mph or slower, application of brakes resulted in a brake pedal that could only be depressed about an inch (outside of normal function). Braking distance and response was drastically reduced. Decreased braking performance was experienced shortly after while reversing into a parking spot at low speed (1 mph), almost hitting a concrete wall in an underground parking garage. Vehicle is being inspected by a Chevrolet dealer Service department
UNKNOWN issue. For this vehicle at speeds in excess of 60 MPH the truck begins to shake. The shaking increases in violence as speed increases. This issue can be replicated without fault by a dealership or other auto-shop whenever necessary. The issue has not been specifically looked at by a dealership. There are currently no warning lights or indications. Mileage when started is 10400 +/- 50 mi.
While driving, the engine suddenly stalled forcing me to take evasive action to exit the roadway. After having the vehicle towed to the dealership, I was informed the CP4 fuel pump had failed. The cost of the repairs totaled $13,296.39, plus towing. The repairs took seven weeks to complete.
The truck would take off on its own. The steering column would lock up, and the brakes would fail. The transmission is currently slipping an d these are just a few thing that are/have happened.
Lifter collapsed on highway.

When going at low speed, power braking fails, and I have almost crashed my truck several times. Also - when going at low speeds, my electronic power steering fails - it's difficult to turn and the steering wheel "kicks back" in my hands. Extremely difficult to turn. I'm very concerned that these two things will lead to a crash/accident. Please help! The approximate date listed is the last time these two issues occurred - but it occurs almost every time I drive the vehicle.
Appears to be a brake booster with my truck like trucks similar with this year, however my truck isn't included in the recall
Unknown active recall that cant be fixed have contacted multiple different areas. I have three children and can not feel safe when driving them to school, sports etc.
Was backing into parking place lost all brake pedal ran into another car . Lost brakes when backing trailer . This is a real problem
At low speeds the vehicle does not come to a complete stop. The brakes don’t fully engage and after the pedal is compressed down the vehicle drives forward and in reverse for a few feet.
Back window glass shattered when shutting drivers side door. Happened on the 26th of February 2022, Illinois is still very cold in February, thankfully no passengers were in the back seat. Had to drive home very slow as not to drop glass on the highway. Found a Program Bulletin on the internet, bulletin No: 14815 from a Customer Satisfaction Program that stated this could happen due to structurally weakened glass by GM. We contacted GM and they said our Vin # was not on a recall list. We contacted our Insurance company and are waiting on a new glass to be installed. No warnings of any kind.
Cars under carriage subframe is completely rotted. All suspension parts are detached from under carriage subframe. Vehicle is unsafe to drive.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
