2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

BRAKING SYSTEM HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR A LONG TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP. THERE THE MECHANICS REPLACED THE FRONT BRAKE PADS AND REAR BRAKE PADS. WE CONTINUED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE. WE WERE NOT AWARE OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS TILL RECENTLY SO WE TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO DEALER. MILEAGE WAS 169201. THE BRAKES WERE FIRST INSPECTED 6-29-22. THE MILEAGE AT THAT TIME WAS WELL BELOW YOUR CUTOFF OF 150,000 MILES OR 10 YEARS. THE DEALERS HANDLING OF THIS DOES SEEM UNREASONABLE. THIS IS MY HUSBANDS VEHICLE I REALLY DONT KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED AND WHAT DATES. WHILE BACKING UP HIS TRAILER HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SEVERAL DENTS ON THE SIDE OF IT SHOWS BRAKING PROBLEMS. I THINK 1900.00 IS EXTREME TO REPAIR WHAT YOUR COMPANY IS WELL AWARE OF IS A PROBLEM. YOUR CUSTOMERS SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED THIS WAS POSSIBLE RATHER THAN LEAVING THEM TO FIGURE OUT WHERE TO HAVE IT CHECKED. I HOPE THIS WILL CONVINCE YOUR COMPANY TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT. THAT WILL DETERMINE WHAT VEHICLE WE WILL PURCHASE NEXT.

At slow speeds, such as parking lots and moving in slow traffic, the brakes seem to fail or act like they are giving out.

After start up and when putting the vehicle into drive the transmission seemed to not recognize and then began clunking into gear. While driving it felt like it was slipping and racing with no response. The vehicle became to precarious to drive on the road because the gears wouldn't shift and the vehicle decelerated quickly and would not accelerate upon demand. I felt as if I could endanger others and lose control and endanger myself and the occupants of the vehicle. We chose not to drive it and bring it in for an assessment and ultimately was told of the problem and agreed to the repair to gain our vehicle back in safe working condition. The vehicle needed a total transmission rebuild and torque converter as well as other tranny related items. No warning lights but we did begin to hear a whining noise while cycling through what seemed to be the gears.

My Trailer Brake System starts going off and showing "Trailer Brake System" at the bottom it states Dismiss. It is a safety issue and manufacturing malfunctioning of the truck. There should be a recall in place due to other consumers complaining about this situation.

Torque Converter failure. The torque converter went out suddenly with no warning of possible problems. No engine, or transmission warning lights. Just suddenly started jerking when accelerating. RPMs jump every time it jerks.
