FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
The fuel pump went out, left me stranded and was replaced The transmission went out and was replaced. The lifters in the engine were replaced. When will the engine recall be addressed/acted on? The "cure" to install heavier engine oil is a very bad "bandaid"....truly masks the problem. Maybe the Chevy CEO should return her 2024 $25mm bonus to help pay for the repairs.

I have had to replace 2 batteries due to the tailgate opening and shutting randomly even when parked, and ruining my batteries. You recalled the 1500 HD's for the same issue... but yet not this model when it's clearly happening to 1000's. I'd appreciate it being fixed

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I am filing this complaint against General Motors (GM) and its affiliated dealership Kunes Chevrolet for the unauthorized installation of a surveillance/tracking device (LoJack) in my vehicle, which resulted in severe personal harm, digital exposure, and downstream targeting. On [XXX], I purchased a 2023 Chevrolet Silverado from Kunes Chevrolet in Morrison, Illinois. I was never informed that a LoJack tracking device had been installed in the vehicle. On [XXX], I appeared in person at the same dealership to confront suspicious activity tied to my vehicle’s GPS data. A service advisor confirmed the presence of a LoJack unit and printed a removal ticket, which should be recorded in GM’s internal service system under my name and VIN. This constitutes verifiable, documented acknowledgment of the unauthorized installation. Consequences of This Violation Include: •Illegal geolocation tracking without consent •Suspected sale or exposure of my driving data to third parties and possible defense-linked contractors •Multiple impersonation attempts, including suspected social and professional infiltration •Psychological harm, loss of employment, opportunities, and repeated digital sabotage •Multiple homicide attempts on my life •FOIA-confirmed military interest in my location (Air Force Case #: [XXX]) •IRS and identity manipulation, suggesting systemic misuse of my physical address, GPS logs, and digital footprint INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Occasionally, from the time the vehicle is started to a while after shutdown the left front turn signal / DRL / parking light does not work. Upon turning on the left turn signal, the driver information center says check left front turn signal lamp. The rear turn signal flashes rapidly and the front doesn't illuminate. I've had the vehicle to the dealer 3 times and counting. Twice they confirmed the problem. Wires were inspected and a connection to the turn signal assembly was greased and researes. The next step is to replace the turn signal / headlight assembly.

POWER TRAIN
While driving to work one day I came to an intersection and stopped. When I went to accelerate to take off my truck shuttered and made a loud noise. The truck immediately went into "Reduced Power Mode" with no warning. I could no longer drive the appropriate speed limit and had to constantly pull over to allow other vehicles to go by. This caused a traffic jam on narrow roads to get the vehicle to a safe spot. My truck only has 43,000 miles on it. The dealership confirmed that the truck has a bad valve body and needs to be replaced. The truck is currently sitting at the dealership and has been since May 15, 2025. As of today, July 18, 2025, GM still does not have an ETA on when the part to fix my truck will ship out.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ENGINE
I was on a two lane driving down the road and getting up to speed. I was still about 45 miles per hour on my way up to 55 mph my vehicle started de rating very fast as I’m driving and then my engine shut off. I had no control over my steering as I made a turn to get off the two-lane road because there was no shoulder. I had to turn the steering wheel really hard and was not able to control the vehicle at all because the engine shut down completely. Everything shut down. I was sticking out in the road. I have no clue yet. What caused it I had to get it towed to a dealership. I just thank God I wasn’t on an interstate but still I was on a two lane and had just topped over a small hill where nobody could see me when they topped the little hill. It could’ve been a very dangerous situation.

POWER TRAIN
Sudden jerk power train and deceleration while driving and towing 5th wheel, immediate loss of power and could have been catastrophic. GM has a known defect that requires immediate attention and investigation to affirm this is a broad national problem with the Allison 10 speed 10L1000 transmission, specifically the defective transmission control valve body assembly. Do we have to wait for multiple family members to be killed or seriously injured due to this known defect? Time for action and resolution. My local dealer tells me this is bigger than anyone knows... why?

POWER TRAIN
The vehicle is now at the dealer for the second time regarding transmission shifting issues. First visit I was told they can find nothing wrong despite my experiencing transmission slipping, loud clanking on shifting, and severe jolting when shifting. While having a travel trailer hitched to the truck after the first visit, I experienced all the same issues with the addition of transmission overheating warnings on the dashboard and near complete stoppage of the vehicle at highway speed. The same dealer now says the transmission "valve body" is defective and is being ordered. Due to Towing a trailer with this truck (much lighter than rated capacity) I have the transmission fluid changed on nearly every oil change. The Transmission filter has been changed on the recommendation of my mechanic, strictly due to quantity of fluid changes.
