2017 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500- Melbourne, FL
While driving down the road, my Transmission stopped working. I was on the highway while coming up to speed, my truck would not pick up speed and would not shift into gear. I had the vehicle towed to a nearby automotive shop, where they said there was internal damage to my transmission and recommended a new transmission or a rebuild. There was no warning or any warnings that the transmission was going to fail. It just stopped being operational. My vehicle only has 67k miles on it.

I went outside and started my truck as I normally do. After a few seconds of the rear defroster being on I heard a sizzling noise behind me. I turned around and could see white smoke coming out and filling the truck w smoke. I quickly turned the rear defroster off and then the truck. The whole component has melted for the rear deforster and rear power window. The truck has less that 60,000 mi. After a quick Google search I learned this is apparently a known issue. This is an absolute safety hazard and needs to be addressed immediately. I shouldn't have to pay for a repair on the electrical wiring or faulty parts that were installed by the manufacturer.

I am the owner of a 2017 Chevy Silverado with a little under 50000 miles. I have had an issue with the computer system occasionally re-booting while driving. Also, on occasion, I will get a warning on my display for "trailer braking system" for a fraction of a second. I have mentioned this a several service appointments and inspections, but the dealership was never able to pinpoint the problem. On the morning of Monday, February 28th, I dropped my children off at school, pulled up to the edge of the building and the "trailer braking system" warning flashed for a split second on my display. I proceeded to the stop sign. As I was making the turn into traffic, the computer seemed to have re-booted several times in the period of a few seconds. However, this time, my steering locked in place while making the turn, putting the front of my vehicle just over the double yellow line into oncoming traffic. The doors locked and unlocked several times, several chimes went off, the display flashed a few times, and then, after a couple of seconds, I was able to steer and pull back into my lane. I promptly called Chevy support to report the issue, as I believed this to be an important safety issue that Chevy would be extremely concerned with. I was disappointed to find that the operator was not interested in taking my information, she suggested that I contact the dealership for service, which I already was in the process of doing. I explained that I was calling to report a safety issue to Chevy, not to merely complain, and offered my VIN number. She reluctantly checked the last 8 digits of my VIN number for known recalls and again suggested I call for service. Dealership said that my power steering module needed calibration updates. But, they are not sure that this will solve my issue. I see many complaints like this online and Chevy is not proactively scanning for this computer issue even though it could be deadly in traffic, especially on the highway.

2017 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500- Glendora , CA
GM already has a recall for brakes going out at low speed this has happened multiple times on this vehicle but there's no recall according to this Vin, the second is the transmission shakes the entire vehicle violently at higher speeds, commonly known as the "chevy shake." Multiple dealers refuse to look at the truck charging upfront fees and saying there's nothing wrong with it since there are no warning lights or other sensors on or reporting any errors, both problems have been recalled on similar vehicles just not for this Vin #, a truck with no brakes can put many at risk
