THE FOLLOWING ALL TAKES PLACE WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE INTERSTATE AND CITY, AT HIGHER RATES OF SPEED AND WHEN TRAVELING AT A SLOWER SPEED - WHICH IS AN EXTREME DANGER - EVERY DASH WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND WARNING MESSAGES FLASH (BRAKES, STEERING, TRAILER, FUEL, ETC) ROLL FROM MESSAGE TO MESSAGE, BRAKES GET SOFT AND HARD TO STOP, TRUCK TRIED TO STALL AND SLOWED DOWN LIKE IT WAS LOSING POWER (THIS HAPPENED WHILE ROLLING AT 45 MPH), AC STOPPED WORKING (FAN WORKING BUT COLD AIR STOPS), TRUCK LUNGED FORWARD WHILE ENGAGING THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN AT A RED LIGHT, STEERING DEFINITELY STIFFER DUE TO LACK OF POWER ASSIST. THESE SAME MESSAGES AND WARNING LIGHTS WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO FLASH WHEN THE TRUCK IS PARKED. THIS ISSUE STARTED AT 3300 MILES ON JULY 8TH, THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN JULY 24TH, THEN AGAIN AUG 4TH/5TH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2020 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE PULLING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND WENT TO THE FLOORBOARD BEFORE STOPPING THE VEHICLE. THE CHECK ENGINE AND SERVICE BRAKING SYSTEM WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, THE ENGINE POWER REDUCED AND POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILURE MESSAGES WERE DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING WAS TEMPORARY AND RETURNED TO NORMAL OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JOE BASIL CHEVROLET (5111 TRANSIT RD, DEPEW, NY 14043, (716)683-6800) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKING SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V116000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE RECALL REPAIR WAS PERFORMED. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE CAUSE OF THE POWER STEERING FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,451.

STARTED THE ENGINE AND HAD NO POWER STEERING. I HAD A MESSAGE THAT SAID SERVICE ECS I BELIEVE. POWER STEERING HAS STARTED WORKING AGAIN SINCE.

THIS VEHICLE WAS DELIVERED TO ME IN LATE MARCH 2020. NEW SMYRNA BEACH CHEVROLET SOLD ME TWO FAULTY VEHICLES. THE FIRST THEY TOOK BACK AND NOW THIS SECOND VEHICLES BACK UP CAMERA WORKS INTERMITTENTLY FROM DAY ONE. GM NOR THE DEALER SHIP CAN LOCATE THE REPLACEMENT PART AND THIS HAS BEEN ON-GOING FOR 3 MONTHS NOW. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT HAS A FAULTY CAMERA. I FEAR THAT AS A RESULT, BODILY INJURY COULD RESULT TO SOMEONE ELSE. GM HAS FAILED TO GIVE ME AN ETA ON THE PART, FAILED TO PUT ME IN A LOANER VEHICLE, AND FAILED TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM BY OFFERING ADEQUATE TRADE ASSISTANCE TO GET ME INTO A WORKING VEHICLE.

WHEN I STOP SLOWLY THE BRAKE PEDAL STARTS TO MAKE A NOISE AND STARTS TO SHAKE. YOU CAN LITERALLY FEEL YOUR FOOT SHAKING WHEN STOPPING SLOWLY. IT DOES NOT MAKE IT EVERY TIME BUT WHEN IT DOES IT MAKES IT LIKE 4 TIMES. I FIRST NOTICED THIS WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE ON A ROAD TRIP THEN IT STARTED DOING IT ON THE CITY STREET. IT DOES IT WHEN YOU ARE MAKING A STOP BUT HAVENT STOPPED COMPLETELY BECAUSE WHEN YOU COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IT STOPS DOING IT.

BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE ON 2020 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. MULTIPLE DASH WARNINGS NOTIFYING OF BRAKE FAILURE, ESC FAILURE, AND SERVICE BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING

I WAS PARKED AT A LOCAL LAKE WHEN I STARTED MY 2020 CHEY TRUCK AND NOTICED SEVERAL WARNINGS ON MY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, SERVICE ESC & SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE. I BACKED UP SLOWLY AND NOTICE MY BRAKE PEDAL WAS HARD AND IT TOOK A LOT OF EFFORT TO GET IT TO STOP. THERE WAS A WARNING THAT SAID DRIVE NO FASTER THAN 43 MPH. THE TRUCK WOULD NOT EXCEED 43 MPH. I DROVE IT HOME ABOUT 3 MILES. WHEN I GOT HOME I TURNED OFF & RESTARTED THE TRUCK ALL ERROR CODES WERE GONE, BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON. THE BRAKES SEEM TO BE WORKING FINE, BUT I AM STILL TAKING IT TO THE DEALER MONDAY TO BE SAFE. I HAVE READ THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE A RECALL, BUT I COULD NOT FIND ONE FOR MY VEHICLE. EVERYONE THAT OWNS ONE OF THESE TRUCKS SHOULD BE INFORMED ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IF PEOPLE ARE NOT AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM THERE WILL BE SOME SERIOUS ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THESE BRAKE FAILURES. NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE THIS PROBLEM FROM A CHEVY.

SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST SERVICE ESC *TR

I WAS STOPPED N THE DRIVE THRU AT IN-N-OUT WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THE ECO SYSTEM HAD TURNED OFF THE MOTOR. IT SPONTANEOUSLY TURNED BACK ON WITHOUT ME LIFTING MY FOOT OFF OF THE BRAKE AND THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGED AND THE TRUCK LAUNCHED FORWARD APPROXIMATELY 12-18 INCHES. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME. IT ALSO HAPPENED ONE NIGHT ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS, I COULD HAVE HIT SOMEONE OR THEIR CAR OR I COULD HAVE EVEN RECEIVED WHIPLASH MYSELF. *TR

THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM GOES TO MAX BRIGHTNESS AT NIGHT BLINDING THE DRIVER MAKING IT NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO USE MIRRORS. THERE IS NO ADJUSTMENT TO CORRECT THIS. *TR
