Trailer brake system I have owned this Chevy Silverado 2015 since 2018 when I purchased it certified from a used car dealership in upstate New York. About one year into owning the vehicle I started to experience an alarm that was flash trailer brake system. This alarm would beep and flash in my center consul restricting me from sight distracting me from driving and is almost impossible to drive the car without distraction. I checked YouTube I called the manufacture I did so much to figure out what was going on and why this was happening considering I do not show any thing I did not understand why the trailer brake would cause such a problem considering I never told anything.After about three months of driving the car this trailer brake system alarm stopped. Now recently 2022 the trailer break system alarm is back and flashes nonstop and is relentless. I cannot listen to music I cannot hear my own self think the alarm is so loud and so distracting I would rather walk to the store then drive the truck I am forced to drive this truck because of the fact that I need to get to work but the safety hazards that are now limiting me and I am afraid this is going to cause a major accident or loss of life. I recently discovered that this is a manufacturers wire harness malfunction due to faulty wiring and a low-grade wire harness system. Before this gets any worse I need some sort of help. Knowing that it is impossible to fix without thousands of dollars being spent and finding a specific electrical auto technician to fix it it is nearly impossible to have this fixed Chevy refuses to even acknowledge there is a problem I need someone to please help me and the other Chevy Silverado owners to get this under recall so that these wire harnesses can be replaced please help us my name is [XXX] my address [XXX] [XXX] is my cell phone number INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The electrical system randomly shuts down. It has done this multiple times in the past several months. Everything shuts off, including engine, power steering, etc. It has done this both while sitting idle and when driving. Most times, it will come back on after a few seconds but I have had to coast off the roadway, and have it towed back home. This is VERY DANGEROUS!!! Fortunately, the times it has shut down while driving has been during daylight hours because if this were to happen at night, I would lose all lights, therefore making a serious crash almost certain.

2015 Chevy Silverado, 62,300 miles. While driving at highway speeds. The air condition compessor locked up. Causing the engine to die and causing the loss of power steering and power brakes. I was unable to brake in a timely manner and had to swerve to avoid stopped traffic. It seems there are thousands complaining of the same issue online. There was no warning. I have contacted the dealer and they say there is no recall.

I have been waiting for nearly a year to have this recall fixed by GM! All my dealer's service people do is shrug their shoulders and tell me I'll get a letter when they have the parts. How much longer do I need to wait?
