2016 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

Transmission slipping, it shudders really bad at times, I’ve already replaced the transmissions twice. It’s ridiculous

Rear Defroster malfunction. After starting the vehicle smoke was coming from the rear cab of my truck in the area that the power sliding window meets the rest of the rear window. In the same area, one of the metal strips for the defroster was glowing red hot. Seconds later the rear window shattered within inches of my face. There were no warning lights or messages prior to the defroster malfunctioning. The vehicle is yet to be disabled and the dealer refuses to look at the vehicle until the rear window is fixed. There are messages and recalls from the manufacturer for this issue on the same year make and model as my vehicle but for some reason my trucks vin number is not associated with that recall.

At low speeds, the brake pedal requires much more effort but doesn't engage as quickly as normal driving, so the car still rolls forward even though the brake pedal is fully depressed. This is problematic when parking or at stop signs or stop lights. Plus, it is very dangerous.

I put in a complaint in back in July and haven’t heard anything back. I was wondering what the status was? The complaint was about My stabilitrak and my trailer brake system repeatedly comes on and off

Truck is at 130,000 and the transmission is about failing drastically. I have been telling the dealer that there was a problem with the transmission since 80-90k which the truck seemed to "slip" out of gear and slam into gear, was told that they couldn't find anything wrong with it. I've heard that this year truck is known to have a bad transmission and nothing has been done to fix the issue.

In my 5.3 the lifters failed and ruined the cam also. Loud knocking so was unable to use vehicle until repairs were completed. There were no warning lights and I have documentation of fixed repairs along with picture of defective parts

When backing out of a parking spot or driving slow breaks almost do not work Will barely stop the the vehicle
