2017 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

I was at a drive through lane yesterday. My truck became hard to slow down and stop. I had to push the brake pedal very hard to stop to avoid crashing the car in front of me. I had to do the same on way home approaching stop signs and traffic lights. When turning to and park at our driveway, it was hard to make stop and park also. I heard some noise from power braking system and felt the truck shaking.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving at an unknown speed, he depressed the accelerator pedal however, the vehicle failed to respond with an abnormal noise. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer and was informed no failure was detected. The contact stated two weeks later, he experienced the failure for a second time and the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact took the vehicle back to the local dealer and was informed no failure was detected. The contact took the vehicle to a second local dealer; Hamden Chevrolet (200 Skiff St, Hamden, CT 06517, (203) 687-4751) where it was diagnosed with needing the lifters, valves, manifolds, gaskets, seals, and pushrods to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired however, the contact experienced the failure for the third time. The contact took the vehicle to the first local dealer, where it was still under diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 27,000.

At low speeds in like parking lots the brake pedal can not be push to stop the truck. There is a recall for this problem N192268490 but my vin # is not in the recall.

In the midst of rush hour traffic without any indication in a major interstate, 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT lost power as the engine reeved up and then check engine light came on. Once vehicle was carefully moved from interstate with citizens to the service road, engine running but would go into gears (D, R, L) without any movement. Transmission issues (p0700, p0796, etc... from OBD II). Vehicle has had routine maintenance on all oils as scheduled.

Backing up from my driveway, my brakes fail. The brake pedal was very hard, I had to pressed multiple times until vehicle came to a stop. It was a very scary moment almost rear ended car park on the street. I purchased this vehicle on 12/24/2021 From Antelope Valley Chevy in Lancaster Ca. Same day of the incident. 2017 Silverado. I try contacting the dealer but they’ve close already due to the holiday. Please help!

I was in a drive thru yesterday and couldn’t stop. I was traveling less than 5 mph, and the brake pedal was extremely stiff, I had to pump the brakes several times in order to stop the truck. At one point I had to place the truck in park in order to keep the truck from moving because the brake pedal wouldn’t hold the truck still. It happened a few more times on my way home in slow traffic. I almost crashed once.

I PICKED UP MY TRUCK FROM THE DEALERSHIP AFTER REPAIRS DUE TO AN IMPACT WITH A DEER. THE VEHICLE WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THREE WEEKS. AFTER TRAVELING LESS THAN THREE (3) MILES, FROM THE DEALERSHIP, THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK PROPERLY/ISSUE WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL AND STOPPING. I WAS ABLE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT BUT HAD TO PARK THE TRUCK AND HAVE IT TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. UPON INSPECTION, THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED THAT THE VACUUM PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I KNOW THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS PART FOR THE CHEVY SILVERADO BUT MY VIN SHOWS NO RECALL SO I AM REPORTING THIS ISSUE FOR MY VIN AND HOPEFULLY THIS INFORMATION CAN HELP ANOTHER TRUCK OWNER AVOID AN ACCIDENT OR INJURY. IN THE EVENT THE RECALL IS EXPANDED TO OUR SILVERADO MODEL WE WOULD REQUEST REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE EXPENSE TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PART. I HAVE ALSO CONTACTED GM DIRECTLY TO REPORT THIS ISSUE AND THEY ARE GOING TO FOLLOW UP WITH ME REGARDING THE MATTER.

Was driving for 25 minutes in the truck. Temperature outside was around 40 degrees Fahrenheit. I did not know the rear defroster was on. My son who was in the back seat smelled smoke and said that the truck was on fire. I pulled to the side of the road and looked in the back and could see the rear defroster on drivers side was glowing and emitting smoke. I looked at rear defrost light and it was on. I turned the rear defroster off to prevent any more current from going through the wire. Once we were sure there was no more smoke or fire we got back in the vehicle. About 300 seconds later the window shattered. If my son was not in the back seat and smelled smoke the back seat could have caught on fire. I called the dealer and they stated no recalls for my vehicle. There is an article from Canada describing what happened to my truck. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2019/07/gm-truck-recall-2014-2019-silverado-sierra-trucks-over-fire-risk/ No warning at all. The rear defroster just started smoldering and smoking. I do have a rear sliding window so only the left glass pane was impacted.
