2020 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

INFOTAINMENT SCREEN IS TOO BRIGHT FOR NIGHT DRIVING. NO DIMMER CONTROL. THE BACKUP CAMERA IS SO BRIGHT YOU CANNOT SEE OUT OF THE CAB. I ALMOST RAN INTO A TREE TYING TO BACK THIS THING UP AT NIGHT. DRIVING AT NIGHT, I WAS CONSTANTLY DISTRACTED BY THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE DISPLAY. YOU CAN TURN OFF THE DISPLAY, BUT IF YOU NEED NAVIGATION THAT DOESN'T WORK. YOU CAN DIM THE INTERIOR LIGHTS, BUT BY THEE TIME THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN IS DIM ENOUGH YOU CAN NO LONGER SEE THE GAUGES. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. *TR

ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS: ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS OF APPROX 50-70 MPH, THE POWER STEERING FEEDBACK WHILE MOVING THROUGH A LEFT CURVE FAILED. THE WHEEL DID NOT REACT BACK TO THE CENTER WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL WAS "LET GO". THE STEERING WHEEL FELT "DEAD" AND STAYED IN THE LEFT TURN POSITION. WHEN COMING OUT OF THE LEFT TURN/CURVE, THE WHEEL HAD TO BE FORCED BACK TO CENTER. PULLING OVER AND TURNING THE TRUCK OFF AND THEN ON, SEEMED TO FIX THE ISSUE TEMPORARILY. FEELS EXTREMELY UNSAFE. *TR

2020 SILVERADO LT WITH ONLY 4660 MILES WAS PARKED IN A NEIGHBORHOOD DRIVE WAY WHERE OUR 17 YEAR OLD SON HAD SPENT THE NIGHT WITH A FRIEND. HE STARTED THE TRUCK TO LEAVE AND IMMEDIATELY HAD SEVERAL ALARMS; BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE, DRIVE NO FASTER THAN 62 MPH, SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE, SERVICE ESC. HE TRIED TO EASE OUT OF THE DRIVE TO TEST BRAKES, ABOUT 5-10 MPH; HE HAD NO BRAKES, ZERO BRAKES! HE ROLLED TO THE EDGE OF THE DRIVEWAY AND TURNED THE TRUCK OFF. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINS HE STARTED THE TRUCK AGAIN AND THE BRAKES WERE WORKING AND ALARMS WERE CLEARED BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND COULD HAVE LED TO MUCH WORSE ENDING. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE, WE FOUND THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON AND GM HAS DONE 2 RECALLS ON THIS PROBLEM YET IF YOU AREN'T AWARE OF IT, YOU, YOUR FAMILY OR OTHER INNOCENT DRIVERS COULD BE KILLED BECAUSE GM AND THE NHTSA HAVE NOT MOVED STRONGLY ENOUGH TO WARN OWNERS, THERE SHOULD BE A NATIONWIDE 'DO NOT DRIVE' ALERT ISSUED ON THESE VEHICLES. I HAVE CONTACTED MY ATTORNEY TO SEE HOW TO PROCEED AND OUR SON WILL NOT RISK HIS LIFE IN THIS TRUCK AGAIN. NO BRAKES AND NO EMERGENCY BRAKE!! WOULD GM'S CEO LET THEIR 17 YEAR OLD DRIVE THESE DANGEROUS TRUCKS? THE NHTSA NEEDS TO TAKE IMMEDIATE DIRE ACTION ON THIS, LOOK AT YOUR OWN WEBSITE AT HOW MANY COMPLAINTS THERE ARE ON THIS EXACT PROBLEM! MY ATTORNEY READ YOUR SITE AND HE SAYS YOU ALL CAN'T DENY KNOWING THE PROBLEM EXIST, TAKE ACTION BEFORE DRIVERS DIE. GM AND NHTSA ARE BEING NEGLIGENT ON THIS AND I WILL GLADLY TESTIFY IN ANY CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AND UNFORTUNATELY THERE WILL BE SOME. GM SHOULD DO THE RIGHT THING AND IMMEDIATELY ADVISE ALL DRIVERS OF 2019-2020 CHEVY SILVERADOS TO STOP DRIVING THEIR NEW $40,000 TRUCKS AND CALL A LOCAL DEALER TO COME GET IT. DRIVERS WHO READ THIS PLEASE BE ADVISED, THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SOME GM DRIVER WILL DIE BECAUSE OF THIS BRAKE FAILURE. *TR

I HAVE A 2020 SILVERADO 1500 THE BACK UP CAMERA IS SO BRIGHT AT NIGHT TIME (THE SCREEN BRIGHTNESS AND ITS WHITE WASHED/ TOO HIGH OF CONTRAST) THAT IT MAKES IT UNSAFE TO BACK UP AT NIGHT TIME. I AM BLINDED BY THE SCREEN AND CANT EVEN USE THE SCREEN. *TR

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND 7 DAYS LATER IT WOULD NOT START AND THE BATTERY WAS COMPLETELY DEAD HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. *TR

THIS IS MY SECOND COMPLIANT, ON 5/7/20, AFTER MY SHIFT ENDED. THE TRUCK WOULD NOT START. I CALL THE SALES PERSON, WE WENT OVER SEVERAL STEPS AND IT STILL WOULD NOT START. I CALLED ON STAR. SHE SAID WILL DO A DIAGNOSTIC. WHEN SHE STARTED EVERY THING WELL OUT. I CALL BACK BY PHONE AFTER AN HALF HOUR..THEY SENT ME A JUMPER. THE NEXT DAY I TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER. THEY RESET EVERY THING. SAID BEFORE I PURCHASED IT MAY HAVE SAT ON THE 6 MONTH. I HAD IT FOR WEEKS! ON 5/II/20, I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF GOT OUT AND LOCKED THE TRUCK. A FEW SECONDS CAME BACK AND UNLOCK TRUCK, OPEN THE DOOR THE RADIO WERE STILL ON. AFTER THAT IT CUT OFF. I WAS PARTED AT BJS. *TR

BRAND NEW TRUCK WITH ONLY 450 MILES. FIRST INCIDENT WAS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON , BRAKE PEDAL WAS REALLY HARD TO PRESS ALMOST HIT CAR INFRONT OF ME. SECOND INCIDENT ALL LIGHTS CAME BACK UP ABS,SRS, TRAILER BRAKE MODULE, PARKING BRAKE, TRUCK WILL NOT GO FASTER THAN 42MPH. AND BRAKE PEDAL WAS REALLY HARD AGAIN. CALL ONSTAR FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND CODE CAME UP, C05B0,P25A2. CHECK ENGINE LIKE CAME OFF. WENT TO DEALER TODAY AND THEY SAID NOTHING CAN BE DONE , BECAUSE NO LIGHT IS ON. SERVICE ADVISOR REFUSE TO PUT SCANNER TO READ ANY STORED CODE. SERVICE ADVISOR SAY IT CAN BE THE COMPUTER IS RESENTING, NEED TO KEEP DRIVING VEH UNTIL CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES BACK ON AGAIN. NO FEEL SAFE ON NEW VEH WITH NO BRAKES TWICE. *TR

AT COLD START UP, THE TRUCK IMMEDIATELY ILLUMINATED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WITH A MESSAGE OF REDUCED ENGINE POWER. A SHUT DOWN AND RESTART PRODUCED THE SAME RESULTS. SHUT THE TRUCK OFF AND PULLED THE TROUBLE CODE P26BB. NEXT START UP, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON, BUT THE REDUCED ENGINE POWER MESSAGE WAS GONE. DROVE IT TO THE DEALER WITH NO PROBLEMS, WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED A FAULTY COOLANT FLOW VALVE. 38 DAYS LATER IT STILL SITS AT THE DEALER STILL NOT REPAIRED. IF THIS PROBLEM WAS TO HAPPEN UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING, REDUCED ENGINE POWER COULD PRODUCE DANGEROUS CONDITIONS IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS ( IE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC, MERGING). *TR

IT CUT OFF AT A STOP AND AFTER I STOP WITH WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKES. I FELL BUMP IN THE REAR OF THE TRUCK, LIKE I BEEN REAR END AND THE REAR SHAKES. SOME THE THE AS WELL. IT CUT OF AFTER I STOP A FEW SECONDS AND START RIGHT BACK UP. IN DRIVE WAY IDLES ABOUT 15 OR LONGER, IT CUTS OFF. I HAVE TO RESTART IT. AND TAKING OFF IN HESITATION AND SOME TIMES MOVEMENT IN THE REAR AND UNDER THE TRUCK. BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.

WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE (OURS DOES NOT HAVE THE STOP START TECHNOLOGY); HOWEVER WHEN IDLING LOW OR COMING TO A STOP THE VEHICLE WILL JERK THEN DIE. THE MOTOR WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF; STALLING, THE ONLY WAY TO RESTART IS TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL OR PARK AND TURN IGNITION AGAIN. THE MOTOR SHUTS OFF ENTIRELY USER IS UNABLE TO DRIVE; PRESENTS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. PUSHING GAS PETAL DOES NOT WORK EVEN IF IT DID HAVE THE STOP START TECHNOLOGY.
