- My back up camera developed a fish eye distortion. - It makes it hard to see how close something is behind you, making it dangerous backing up with children in the area. - Yes, although the dealer is trying to claim it is ''normal'', even though it was not that way when I bought the truck, or I would not have purchased it. - There were no warning lamps or other symptoms prior to the problem.

While driving home in my neighbor I was approaching vehicle ahead of me which was stopped. I applied the break pedal which went loosely all the way to ground and unresponsive. Due to my inability to stop on time I rear ended the vehicle. No warning that there was an issue with my breaks what so ever. The only thing that I did have going on was my trucks front panel (gauges & stereo screen) weren't functioning. I went to turn on my pick up and it behaved as if battery was dead. I let it sit for a few minutes and attempted to start it once again and it started right up. The issue was the stereo screen stayed black and only the fuel gauge and speedometer were functioning. In the end I ended up being at fault in the accident and reported it to my insurance.

275/60r20 Rear Passenger side exploded, damaging my rim. Less than 20k miles on truck.

The radio continuously keeps blacking out turning off and back on over and over. Radio has been replaced and everything and it’s still an issue.

After a morning’s fishing, I drove the boat to the launch site to retrieve and load onto the trailer. Started my 2020 1500 Silverado in the parking lot and went about 75 feet to the launch and retrieved the boat. While I was retrieving the boat, I left the Silverado motor running. After boat pickup, drove about 75 feet in the lot to rig the boat for travel and shut off the Silverado engine. After rigging was completed, started the truck and there was no power steering. The following two messages were present on the DIC: “service power steering drive with care” and “service ESC”. I can’t believe that this truck with less than 2800 miles was exhibiting such a major problem. Restarting the tuck multiple times did not clear the error messages. Since I live about three miles from the lake, I decided to take a chance and drove home and left the truck in the street. Called the dealer and made a service appointment. After about an hour, I went out and started the truck in an attempt to park it in the driveway. The messages had disappeared and power steering was functional. Also, I did some searching on the internet and found many other owners of 2020 1500 Silverado that had the exact same loss of power steering and messages that I had experienced. The dealer informed me that although there were many communication error codes present, they were not able to find the cause of the problem. They requested that I leave the truck with them and they will try to reproduce the power steering failure. The dealer didn’t seem to care, even after I mentioned that there were many others with identical problems and surely someone in Chevrolet engineering knows of the problem and how to fix it. Their response was that they were not aware of any known documented problems like mine. I think I’m getting the run around. They still have the truck after twelve days and no solution. My wife refuses to drive the 2020 1500 Silverado with such an unsafe condition.

Service ESC and Parking Brake error. Drove to work with no issues. Started up to drive home and I kept hearing a "Ping" noise like hail hitting my roof. Then I thought my transmission was going out while driving. It is almost like it is firing out of order. Dealership ordered multiple parts: Misfire in cylinder 4 plus issue with the heads and push rod. GM decided that the issue it to be repaired rather than a new engine be put in.

While driving all warnings lights came on and all gage needles started moving back and forth.

Momentary loss of electrical power going over bumps, stabilitrak warning then complete loss of cabin power, engine power and power steering. Corrects after approx 1 sec.
