2025 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

The vehicle’s wireless Apple CarPlay system forces the iPhone to connect to the truck’s built-in Wi-Fi network, which does not provide internet access. When connected, iPhone cellular data is blocked, resulting in frequent loss of navigation, traffic updates, and streaming services while driving. There is no option in the vehicle settings to disable the Wi-Fi or force cellular use. Multiple troubleshooting steps have been attempted, including iPhone network resets, Wi-Fi assist, toggling data settings, and re-pairing CarPlay, all without success. This design flaw creates a safety concern because navigation and real-time traffic information can fail unexpectedly, requiring driver distraction to troubleshoot or rely on a handheld device. The issue appears to be a firmware or design limitation of the infotainment system, not a defect with the phone. Using wired CarPlay resolves the issue, but wireless CarPlay as advertised consistently blocks cellular data. I am filing this complaint to report a persistent connectivity and safety problem that affects all users of wireless CarPlay on this vehicle model. The inability to access real-time navigation and traffic data while driving is a clear distraction and could contribute to unsafe driving conditions.

Driving south on I95 under normal condition. After driving for about a hour truck started smoking under the hood. I pulled over and turned off vehicle. I released the latch to open hood. When I got out of the vehicle to lift the hood there were flames coming from both sides of the hood. I did not lift the hood. I moved away from the vehicle and called 911. Police and fire department responded and extinguished the fire. Vehicle was a total loss.

The thrust bearing of 3.0l diesel engine is out of spec engine knocking there was no check engine lights on. The safety of this problem is I was at the cancer facility with my other half while she was getting chemotherapy when this started so I left her there went home and got are other vehicle

Was driving home from going to dinner on Jan 4th Sunday lower acceleration than usual . Did not think anything about it got up on the 5th January 2026 to goto work got on the interstate and a message power decline drove carefully. I changed direction and started driving to the dealership right as I got to the stop light by the dealership I got a message low oil pressure turn engine off. At which time the dealership checked the truck said the oil pump faulted and caused the engine to burn up,

infotainment center and navigation and Bluetooth with phone problem started on the way home from the dealer same day it was purchased , 3.0 diesel engine failed at 7000 miles

On 11-20-25 while driving vehicle home a loud noise was heard coming from rear of engine. After review and consultation with automative technician it was thought best to park truck in safe location at house and have towed to dealership as engine noise identified aligned with other reports of thrust bearing failures associated with this engine. Driving engine further was considered unsafe if further damage occurred the engine could seize up while on highway. The Dealership tested engine on 11-21-25 in accordance with GM technical service bulletin and confirmed a thrust bearing failure had occurred. A replacement engine and turbo were submitted for order, but not available to due to back order of these parts due to large number of failures of same engine this year. Only the GM dealership that I purchased car from has inspected vehicle at this time and there were no check engine lights in vehicle when failure occurred. I have since identified the GM technical service bulletin was published in September of 2025 and the Duramax 3.0 has had numerous failures throughout 2025, prior to my purchasing vehicle at end of October. GM manufacturing misrepresented the quality of vehicle during the new vehicle purchase and did not disclose the significant number of engine failures that have occurred this year that could have left me and my family in an extremely unsafe situation. Additionally there has been no communication on how the replacement engine equipment manufacturing has resolved the issue that created the initial failure and I am concerned of driving vehicle in future as the engine failure may occur again. NHTSA needs to record this incident and request to GM failure rate data this year and investigate GM for selling vehicles with known manufacturing issues that place driver/passengers in an unsafe condition when vehicle looses power while driving.
