2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 complaints

Engine stalled at highway speed 50mpr, disabled brakes, and steering. I coasted to a stop with absolutely no power. Engine would not restart for 2 minutes. No Engine lights or codes present but warning on dash read service trailer brake system disabled. I drifted to a stop with no brakes at all or power steering. We were not hauling any trailers and no trailer was connected. This was the scariest event I've ever experienced driving. Very unhappy when they're was no reason to stall. Gas tank was half full.

While I was driving down the interstate the audio went to maximum volume. This caused me to panic while driving 70 mph down a very busy interstate because the music was blasting very loudly. I was quickly trying to turn it down and would not work. The power and mute would not work. I had to grab my phone and switch over to Apple Music play a song and then pause it and just keep it paused the entire drive. This happened about 5-6 times in the past year. This is a very serious safety problem. It could easily cause a wreck from panic or dangerous to a newborn baby in the vehicle with speakers blaring as loud as it can possibly go. I have taken it to a dealership twice over it and was just told it’s an update. This is not something you should have to worry about for the life of a new vehicle or take in for an update every time this happens. Luckily nothing happened to me but could have ended very badly or for someone who gets startled easily and possibly damage your hearing.

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 MPH, the vehicle in front came to a stop and the contact depressed the brake pedal however, the pedal went to the floorboard. The contact stated that the Forward Collision Avoidance system failed to activate as needed. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle was not diagnosed and was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 17,000.

Forward Collision System Unavailable and Front Camera Blocked Clean Windshield. This alert populates when the temperature is below 40 degrees. I have taken it to the dealership they ran there diagnostic and said it only needed an update. Problem is still happening I believe this is a manufacture problem. My windshield is not obstructed by anything. This is the only vehicle we have, and I feel my kids and I are at risk when I get these alerts on my dashboard. Problem first appeared back in October when temperatures started dropping in my city.

During a cold start up once the vehicle is moving, it has a hard time shifting. It jerks makes a loud noise and shift a radically.

I drove the vehicle to work in the morning with everything operating fine. I was leaving for lunch 4 hrs later, started fine put it in drive and I absolutely had no power steering, I turned off the vehicle several times thinking something needed to be reset however no change. I went to leave work around 5:30pm and power steering worked fine again. I called the local dealership and explained there were no recalls or bulletins on this issue.

Was driving and the power steering quit working and had to manually turn truck into destination I was going to. It gave me a message the the electronic system needed to be serviced. Took to dealership and they claimed there was nothing wrong with electronic steering system. The blamed it on an on off switch mounted on my dash for my fog lights.

I HAVE A FLEX TAIL GATE WHICH IS ALL ELECTRONIC. THE TAILGATE WILL NOT STAY UP , IT KEEPS ON FALLING AND UNLOCKING FOR NO REASON. BUTTON THE TAILGATE LEVER DOES NOT WORK. TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP IN JULY AND THEY HAD TO ORDER THE PART. IT IS ALMOST DEC AND STILL NOT HEAR. THE TAILGATE FELL IN MY GARAGE AND I DID NOT KNOW IT WHEN I PUT THE DOOR UP IT SCRATCHED MY TAIL GATE. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD BEFORE THIS ISSUE AND MY TAILGATE FELL AND I HAD ALL MY WORK SUPPLIES IN THE BACK. SOMEBODY HONKED THE HORN AND TOLD ME. IF THEY DIDN'T THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN A MAJOR ACCIDENT WITH ALL MY SUPPLIES FALLING OUT OF THE BACK. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.. I HAVE READ ABOUT IT ON THE CHEVY WEBSITE AND THEY SAID THEY HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE SWITCH ON THE CHEVY FLEX GATE FROM 2019-2022. THEY SAID THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR 2023.

While driving the vehicle it will slow automatically as if there is something in front of the vehicle when there is nothing there. It has happened twice on the highway at highway speeds causing driver to take action. While driving the vehicle, the emergency brake automatically set itself while in drive. Electrical accessory issue with radio; cutting out and losing signal, unable to control volume of radio when driving or parked as radio gets extremely loud and cannot be turned down or off.

While drive 70mph on the highway the service steering column lock message displayed and the steering column locked. The service traction control warning displayed and vehicle traction control system began malfunctioning and tires began locking up. Break system failure message displayed, vehicle lost power to functional breaking capability. Trailer breaks disabled warding displayed, service required. Service ECS message displayed. Control of vehicle was lost, was able to naturally decrease speed and no accidents occurred. During this time, all control of breaking system was lost and steering function was lost. There was minimal traffic and I was able to turn my hazards on. Vehicle came to a complete stop in the right lane of the highway which could have cause a fatal crash. Intermittent steering functionality resumed after vehicle stopped allowing my to drive 5 mph to the exit ramp to move to safety. During this time, break system was not operational and potentially could have continued to cause an accident.

While parked and not running, this truck started on fire and burned throughout, causing a fire to a truck parked near it and a home near it.

I was driving at about 40 mph and went to brake and the brake pedal went to the floor with multiple lights appearing on the dash including a warning "brake system failure max speed 43 mph" as well as "service ESC". The brake light went on as well as the ABS light and the check engine light. Brakes were not fully functional and were like old manual brakes that you had to press hard on to slow down. I was fearful getting back to the house. Multiple warnings appeared on my Chevy app. Today I started to move in the driveway to clean up as I am taking to dealer tomorrow. All lights are off and the brakes now appear to work. The warnings are off of the app now (curious as to why for such a potentially lethal event) I have screenshots of the dash warnings but neglected to get a screenshot in the app. My fear is that the dealer will blow this off and the app shows all is good only to leave me drive this for them go out again. This is a signifivant safety issue for Chevy (and for my family)

The volume to the vehicles infotainment system was unexpectedly set by the system to the highest setting without my input while listening to XM radio. My attempts to lower the volume via the volume control knob and steering wheel volume adjustment would lower the volume slightly but the rate the system increased the volume was faster than I could lower it. My safety was put at risk because initially the loud volume shocked me and caused me to panic trying to lower the volume so I can hear my surroundings while attempting to drive in city traffic. My safety was also at risk because my watch alerted me to a volume level that causes permanent damage to my hearing. I have not reported this to the dealer or independent service yet. The vehicle has not been inspected. There were no other warning messages or symptoms to the problem prior to the failure. Today was the first incident.

The General Motors subjected my family to an unsafe and possible deadly conditions by not repairing the known 2022 Chevy Silverado trailer brake issue described. Within the narrative SEE ATTACHMENTS - INCIDENT NARRATIVE - GLOBAL SAFETY FIELD INVESTIGATION - DCS6444

When driving the RADIO goes full volume, then after about 15sec ( and spilling your coffee all over the place) it turns down then the radio screen says restarting. Now 2 issues this is going to blow all of my speakers and no one will warranty it ( cause its not my fault it goes full ON) and the other issue is ... i'm driving at 5am and this thing goes full blast and when your drinking your coffee or anything and this sudden JOLTED IMPACT OF NOISE hits ya scared the crap out of you... this needs to be fixed... it happens like once a month.. very random... but it happens after the truck has sat for a work shift or in the morning but not always in that scenario

The contact owned a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at 60 MPH, the steering wheel seized and the vehicle violently lunged to the right. The passenger's front tire detached from the vehicle, causing the contact to lose control of the vehicle. The contact crashed into the bumper blocks. The contact and the passenger were injured and received medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a collision center. The vehicle was deemed totaled by the insurance company. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 27,715.

Vehicle engine blew up stopped running. I was driving up Highway 17 leaving Santa Cruz heading towards Sacramento when Engine failed was able to pull off the side of the freeway without being sideswiped had to have CHP come and shut down the number one lane in order to get vehicle towed. Was pulling a travel trailer. Vehicle and trailer were towed to the closest hotel in Scotts Valley the following day truck was towed to Watsonville Chevrolet where they tore the engine apart and found the catastrophic failure of the engine, vehicle was inspected by Watsonville Chevrolet mechanic. There were no warning mites before engine stopped working no warning and was very fortunate by God's graces to get off the side of the highway before being sideswiped or rear-ended. The repair took 47 days to fix two days after I got the vehicle back the battery was dead because certain electrical components like battery and stereo were not reconnected therefore caused a drain and would not start. Had to call GM again to have the vehicle towed to Folsom Chevrolet California where they kept the vehicle for 9 days to fix the problem which was electrical.

The audio in the truck increased to maximum volume on its own- without user/driver input. The only way to reset the radio is to pull over, shut off the truck, and open the door. This is extremely hazardous and distracting while operating the vehicle. It is an urgent safety concern for the driver and all passengers, as well as other vehicles.

The contact owns a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while attempting to reverse, he became aware that the display for the rear view camera only displayed the top half of the image. Potentially compromising rear-view visibility. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the rearview camera programming, but a remedy was not yet available. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but was unable to assist. The failure mileage was 14,000.

The vehicle starter began malfunctioning, upon having that repaired by the dealership the brakes on the truck failed while underway. The dealership subsequently replaced the fuse panel and said it was resolved, that was in November 2022. The starter again began having problems engaging yesterday.

While driving the truck, something electrical seems to "reset" and upon that occurring, the brakes and other things quit working. This has happened in this truck twice within the last 10,000 miles. The dealership "resets the electrical system" and the truck runs fine for a period of time, but it has happened twice that the brakes have failed while going down the road.

MY VEHICLE HAS MULTIPLE ISSUES THAT THE DEALER FAILS TO APPROPRIATELY INVESTIGATE AND TRY AND RESOLVE ALL I GET IS NTF REAR CAMERA BLANKS OUT AND SHOWS A WARNING SYMBOL A TRIANGLE WITH EXCLAMATION AND A CAMERA SYMBOL CIRCLED WITH A SLASH IN THE MORNING THE TRANS SLIPS UNTIL IT UP SHIFTS THROUGH 1-2 THEN OFTEN 3-4 GEARS RADIO SYSTEM CAN SUDDENLY COME ON AT FULL VOLUME AND VEHICLE HAS TO BE SHUT DOWN AND RECYLED TO MAKE IT GO AWAY RADI SPEAKERS COME ON ALL CRACKLY WITH REDUCED VOLUME CAPABILITY OCCASIONALY DIGITAL DASH BLANKS OUT. SAFETY ISSUE

The truck randomly got a check engine light. I had to drive over 150 miles home and the whole time the dash said DEF empty and a countdown to reduced power. DEF was filled prior to trip. Took to dealer and was told the DEF tank needed to be replaced due to bad sensor or module. No parts available for repair so I am without a truck until GM decides to produce parts. The consumer stated that the vehicle is still at the dealer and the DEF module has been replaced 3 times. No remedy has been provided from the manufacturer so far.

I bought the truck in April of 2023, a few days after I purchased it I was backing up and the review camera turned off and received an error. I went to the dealer and was told it was caused my my tow hitch. Which makes no sense since they have an option to towing. I've looked on forums online where several other owners have the same issue with the same year truck.

The inside silver trim pieces blind the driver and passenger when the sun reflects off them. The trim piece on the driver side reflects into the side view mirror, blinds the driver and does not allow you to see blind spots.

There is a small front body part known as the "moustaches" next to the headlights on either side of the vehicle. We have had this vehicle for less than 2 years and both the driver's side and passenger side "moustaches" have come loose on this truck and flown off while driving at highway speeds. Prior to flying off they get caught up on the tires and could cause a catastrophic blow-out of the steering tires. There is also the hazard of the body part flying off into traffic and causing damage or injuries to other drivers or pedestrians. This appears to be an engineering error and they have corrected it on later models by replacing the two small pieces with one wraparound piece. I believe this is an unsafe condition specific to this model year and should be considered for a possible safety recall.

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado. Upon inspection of vehicle, the contact discovered an abnormal design of the vehicle's exhaust pipe. The exhaust pipe had been smashed in and the pipe appeared to be closed shut. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who informed him that it may have been designed that way to ensure safe ground clearance while driving the vehicle. The contact stated that while driving at 65 MPH, they had become nauseous and had temporarily lost consciousness. The contact pulled off the highway and went for a walk to regain composure; the contact did not seek medical attention. The contact believed that the design of the exhaust pipe had caused those symptoms to occur. The contact spoke with the dealer and scheduled an appointment for a diagnostic. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be diagnosed. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000.

When vehicle becomes disabled due to an an electrical or mechanical issue there is no way to put the transmission into neutral. Due to the vehicle having an electric shift mechanism, when there is an electrical issue with the vehicle it can’t be shifted into neutral to push or tow the vehicle. For some unknown reason, GM did not provide an emergency transmission shift override system. My previous vehicle, a 2014 Ram had an emergency shift override mechanism for emergency situations. With GM’s lack of an override system if the vehicle develops an issue while driving once it comes to a stop it shifts its self into park leaving no way to move the vehicle safely off the roadway without a tow truck using skates/dollies on the rear wheels. I personally experienced this yesterday while driving in San Antonio, Texas traffic. My vehicle died while going 70 mph. Thankfully I was able to coast off to the shoulder. When the vehicle came to a stop it would no longer shift into neutral. I have read others having similar experiences only not being fortunate enough to get off the roadway. GM needs to provide a way to override the electronic shift mechanism so there vehicles can be moved when issues arise. It’s only a matter of time before an electrical issue renders a vehicle unmovable in traffic causing injury or death to the traveling public.

Back up camera cuts out at night in low light conditions, making it dangerous. Been to dealer twice, first they reflash BCM then second time, they state “we can’t find anything wrong”. I have seen people complaining online about this issue.

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving 58 MPH and attempting to depress the brake pedal, the contact saw that an unknown electrical component had detached from underneath the dashboard and was obstructing the brake pedal. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to remove the electrical component with his left foot to depress the brake pedal. The contact called the local dealer and made them aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000.

Upper Control Arms are made of Aluminum . I live in Pa and they use a lot of road salt and brine to treat the roads in the winter. Upper Control Arms are being ate up from the salt. If Upper Control Arm Fails Rim and tire fall of truck at any speed!!! I purchased truck new less than a year ago.

Still haven’t received any information on when the retrofit process will be completed.

The lane departure assist stopped working. The dash says lane departure assist not available.

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle unintendedly lunged forward and jerked. Additionally, the instrument panel was black. The rearview camera and the front view camera malfunctioned. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where a software update was performed; however, the dealer was unable to duplicate the jerking and the instrument cluster failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 10,000.

Manufacturer and dealership cannot resolve active recalls because the vehicle does not have the part (sports bar with chimsl accessories high brake light) marked in the recall. Vehicle was ordered with the accessory on the window sticker but it did not fit properly and due to this was removed from the truck. Dealership refuses to resolve the recall even though the part does not exist on the truck.

Integrated trailer brake failure. Pugged in trailer and received message stated trailer brake failure, needs service

I was driving on Pa Turnpike around Denver, PA, at about 75 MPH, I saw in my review mirror, what I first though was dust or smoke blowing around my truck bed. I slowed down 10-15 MPH, a small flame was visible through the rear window, between cab and bed. I immediately pulled over, put in park , turned on flashers, grabbed my phone and wallet, got out of the vehicle. opened the rear door grabbed one bag and saw flames over the cab. Flames were visibly getting larger between cab and and bed, flames were also exiting under bed and driver side rear wheel well. I walked up the turnpike about 100 feet and called 911. The truck became fully engulfed while on phone with 911. Picture labeled first picture was after 911 call, and about 5-min after stopping vehicle. Fire Company showed up 15-min. later but vehicle was already gone. Allstate Ins. has possession of truck. Truck had 25K miles and was purchased new January 2022. The truck has been maintained per manufactures specifications by Faulkner Chevrolet in Lancaster, PA. The truck had no damage ever, was never off-road, and there were no environmental issues to cause the fire. Only modifications to vehicle was a professionally sprayed in bed liner.

The contact owned a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado. The contact stated while in traffic the contact heard an abnormal sound coming from the vehicle, but no warning light was illuminated. When the contact pulled over on the side of the road smoke was coming from under the hood of the vehicle that then became flames. The contact had minor burns to the eyebrows and hair and some items of clothing were burned. The fire department was able to extinguish the fire and a police report was filed. The vehicle was towed by the insurance company. The dealer was contacted but no assistance was provided. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 17,000.

When pulling a travel trailer with electric trailer brakes, the trucks trailer brake control switch disengages. While pulling our new travel trailer home from the dealership I tested the trailer brakes prior to leaving the camper dealers lot and the trailer brakes work with both the manual switch and the trucks brake pedal. But while traveling down the highway and braking with the foot pedal the truck emitted an audible alert tone but by the time that I looked at the dash the visual message had already disappeared. While traveling this happened a few more times before I was finally able to read the alert notification on the dash in time to read the there was a trailer brake fault and the electronic trailer brake controller had been disabled. The trailer I was pulling was well within the trucks TWR rated capacity, but yet heavier than the truck. Luckily I finally figured out what was going on and did not need to brake hard and was able to get my trailer to our nearby destination. Had I have been aware that there could be a trailer brake controller problem I would have never made this trip with my truck and trailer and risked incident. At no point in my truck purchasing process or during ownership have I ever been notified that my truck could have trailer braking problems. Had there been a situation where I needed to stop fast it could have resulted in catastrophy. Chevrolet needs to inform owners of this potential safety issue immediately. After the fact, I came across multipl

After A Remote Start When The Start Button Is Pressed The Engine May Stall or Will Not Restart/ Ignition May Appear To Be Stuck On

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while his wife was in a parking lot, she inadvertently depressed the accelerator as she was driving out of the parking lot, she crashed into a light pole with the front end of the vehicle in the center.

Idling rough still. Even after bcm replacement a week ago. Messages for "key not found" only one more start allowed. Grinding noise like over cranking when you hit engine button. Diagnostics showed 93 misfires on cyl 4. No tsb. Drove vehicle again attempting to duplicate and couldn't find issue. Replaced #4 spark plug. Reprogrammed the bcm as dealership forgot a step to program both keys.

7500 oil change, tire rotation multi vehicle inspection appt. With issues. - didn't do oil change/inspection. Because of major issue with transmission/engine. Vehicle running rough, happens at idle or while driving. Sounds lik it will stall. When u put vehicle in gear drive or reverse vehicle lunges towards direction its in gear. Radio lights on dash decide to dim on their own, shuts off on its own. Will not let u adjust dimness you must shut off for it to re light up which is a 50/50 chance. Going over bumps loud noise coming from rear, vehicle does get squirmy when you hit a large bump. Large loud whinging noise upon acceleration. Intermittent issue with key fobs usually spare key not found on dash. Still. Diagnosis papers attached. It is a balance shift gear crank shaft case; they have to remove the transmission and the engine completely from my truck and replace parts! Takes over 1.5 for parts to get delivered, plus they will have my vehicle for 7 days plua approx to do repair. But for now they told me it's cool that I drove it still with crank shaft and balance gear shift issues! They cannot do 7500 mile oil change as they have to remove the engine and they want to wait to do oil so its not wasted when they have to rip engine out. All other issues will be address once this issue is fixed because they are hoping that these problems are solved with the major repair. Tsb# 23-NA-015.

Spare tire and owner's manual provides conflicting, dangerous, and incomplete information. Numerous times the owner's manual warns of numerous dangers about mixing wheel and tire sizes. Yet this truck is equipped with four 275/60 R 20's (20 inch rim) and the spare is 255/80 R 17 (on a 17 inch rim). There is no "T" label on spare. The spare (MAXXIM) is labeled in black "temporary use only" but no information can be found as to what this means. The owner's manual says that this spare (even though a different wheel size and tire size) can be driven up to 70MPH (55 towing) for unlimited time/distance (time and distance is unspecified). The owner's manual does not clearly say that this a "full size spare" or what constitutes a "full size spare." This conflicts with the manual's numerous warnings of numerous dangers of driving with mismatched wheels/tires. The dealership was no help.

I bought the High Country one year ago, signed a paper "we owe you" computer chip for front and rear bumper sensors. They said "should be in by July '22. I have checked with Service and Sales, no answers and no help. How do I get the sensors ?

Bran new got it 0 miles. vehicle began stalling and then began jerking now vehicle only has 4000 miles. Dealer said it a transmission problem. the vehicle stated jerking while I was on hwy going about 65-70 miles. No warning lights came on.

My transmission has been slipping and shifting very hard. The dealer tried relearning the transmission twice and that did not solve the problem. The cooler line has failed and now the transmission is being replaced. The radiator also failed and started leaking. The turbo is making either a metal on metal grinding noise or a bearing squeaking noise.

After 10000 miles my transmission is shifting erratically, especially in the morning
