2017 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO TURN LEFT AT AN INTERSECTION, THE POWER STEERING LOCKED UP AFTER ABOUT 2 INCHES OF TURN ON THE WHEEL. I WAS FORCED TO ABRUPTLY BRAKE. TRIED AGAIN, STILL WOULDN'T TURN. THIRD TRY, IT RELEASED. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, AS I WAS ANGLED ACROSS THE ON-COMING LANE AND STOPPED. IF I HAD NOT BRAKED, I WOULD HAVE WENT HEAD ON INTO A LIGHT POLE. I LISTED MY COMPLAINT ON CARPROBLEMS.COM, AND THERE WERE DOZENS OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME STEERING ISSUE ASSOCIATED WITH THE 2017 CHEVY SILVERADO, SOME RESULTING IN ACCIDENTS WITH INJURY.

Trailer brakes quit working, message displays service trailer brake system. Dealer did a diagnostic with scanner and could get no response. They say probably broken wire somewhere in system. Vehicle is still like new, low mileage. Dangerous having no trailer brakes could cause accident.

I had driven to work. While backing into a parking space at idle speed the brake pedal would not depress. It was hard as a rock. I nearly hit the building but was slowly backing up slightly up hill so my truck stopped on its own. I never had an issue with the brakes before this. later in the same morning I drove my truck to the local dealership a few miles up the road and had no braking issues while driving there. Rather terrifying suddenly having no brakes!

In the last few weeks there have been five instances of the vehicle downshifting multiple gears at approximately 60 MPH with a hard shift. The vehicle was in 2wd mode during all events. This occurred twice on wet roads and resulted in a momentary loss of control which I was able to recover when the rear wheels suddenly slowed and skidded. The vehicle was taken to Brenegen Chevrolet in Onalaska, WI today. The dealer was unable to replicate the issue and charged me for diagnostic time. Vehicle mileage is 53k

Drive complains of fuel smell. Upon inspection found fuel pump outlet port cracked. Replaced fuel pump to correct.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving at an unknown speed, the airbag warning light illuminated intermittently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed however, the contact was unsure of the part that needed to be repaired. The vehicle was repaired however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed with the same failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 55,000.

My vehicles trailer breaking system keeps activating cause the brakes to activate. Additionally, it is activating my stabilitrak system and turns the vehicle off and on. These issues coralate with recall #19V761000.

The system that failed is the speedometer display and radio display while driving. This can be dangerous as I do not know the speed I am driving. This can also be dangerous as the display includes the screen for the backup camera that turns off without notice while backing up. The problem has happened many times in the 2017 Chevrolet Silverado owned by the company I work for. I own a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado and the issue occurs in it, as well. I notified the GM dealership where both vehicles were purchased and they said the screen could be replaced but would be very expensive. No warning lamps or messages occurred. The screen jumps around a lot and occurs at various times (morning, afternoon, warm or cold weather, etc.).

My engine went out while I was driving in the highway. The engine started ticking and I was instantly limited to 30mph with cars going highway speeds around me. No symptoms or warnings prior to that. Dealer said it was faulty lifters required for the AFM module.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving 70 mph at night, the display screen started switching screens independently.

The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 64,500.
