2016 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

THE 7" MYLINK SCREEN IS TOO BRIGHT AT NIGHT EVEN WHEN I DIM THE DASH LIGHTING. THERE IS AN OPTION IN THE SCREEN SETTINGS TO TURN OFF THE SCREEN, WHICH I DO USE, BUT THIS IS DISTRACTING TO GO THROUGH AND THE SCREEN TURNS BACK ON EVERYTIME I ADJUST THE HVAC OR RADIO. THE SCREEN NEEDS AN INDEPENDENT BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENT OR A BETTER SCREEN. I THINK A LED SCREEN WOULD WORK BETTER THAN THE CURRENT LCD SCREEN. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT IT.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 29,999.

WHEN BACKING UP LOST POWER BRAKE ASSIST, ALSO WHEN PULLING FORWARD, WAS DROPPING MY BOAT OFF IN STORAGE CAUSING MY TO USE THE BRAKES A LOT WHEN BACKING UP, NO POWER ASSIST WHEN PULLING OUT OF GARAGE WHEN LEAVING, WHEN GOING DOWN ROAD BRAKES CAME BACK TO OPERATE AS NORMAL. NOW AFTER BACKING AND BRAKING 3 TIMES POWER ASSIST IS GONE BUT RETURNS WHEN DRIVING NORMAL. HAVE APPOINTMENT AT DEALER TOMORROW FOR CAL PROBLEMS (DASHBOARD SAYS CAL AND SMARTPHONE REMOTE START DOES NOT WORK) WILL HAVE BRAKES CHECKED.

THE BRAKES HAVE FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE IN 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS IN SPEEDS LESS THAN 5 MPH. THE HAS BEEN REVIEWED BY A CERTIFIED CHEVROLET MECHANICS AND THEY SINCE THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE, THEY DON'T FEEL IT IS A MAJOR CONCERN. I WANT TO ENSURE THAT OTHERS ARE AWARE AS I HAVE STOPPED DRIVING THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERN. I AM CURRENTLY WORKING WITH CHEVROLET TO TURN THE VEHICLE BACK INTO THEM SINCE I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN INTERNAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE THAT WAS PROGRESSING. TWO DEALERS WERE CONTACTED: BRAD DEERY AUTO GROUP (844-877-2770, LOCATED AT 112 N 2ND ST, MAQUOKETA, IA 52060) AND AN UNKNOWN DEALER WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE.

THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE THE BRAKES LOST ALL POWER ASSIST AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS COMPLETELY STIFF. I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL EXTREMELY HARD TO PREVENT HITTING THE CAR PARKED IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS MOVING SLOWLY AND THIS CONDITION CAME WITHOUT WARNING. MOMENTS EARLIER THE BRAKES HAD PERFORMED NORMALLY. THIS VEHICLE HAS 44,000 MILES.

MY COMPLAINT IS VIBRATION OR A SHAKE. IT'S MOSTLY OCCURS OR WHEN I EXPERIENCE IT IS WHEN I'M AT A IDLE. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL. I SPOKE WITH SEVERAL MECHANICS AND A FEW MENTIONED THAT IT COULD BE THE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR FILTER THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BUT SINCE THEIR IS NOT A LIGHT POPPING UP FOR A CODE,THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I'VE NEVER FELT THIS IN OTHER CHEVY OR GMC TRUCKS THAT I HAVE DRIVEN. WHY IS CHEVROLET IGNORING THIS ISSUE. TO JUST TELL AN OWNER OF A CHEVY TRUCK, OH IT'S THE "CHEVY SHAKE" AND BRUSH IT OFF IS NOT OK.
