Trailer Brake System, needs service light keeps coming on. Have had this issue with this vehicle since I purchased new in 2015. Have had this issue checked by dealer several times and they always tell me unable to duplicate customers issue on my service invoice. The service light will come on and an audible alert will sound for a few seconds and then go off and come back on. Apparently this is an ongoing issue with GM products, have talked to other Chevrolet owners who have experienced same issue and several GM forums have this issue as a priority topic.

I was driving the other day and slowed to an upcoming vehicle, when I tapped the brakes the stabilitrak light flashed and all my dash lights and radio flickered, then when I used my turn signal the same things happened plus the windshield wipers came on, then when I went to merge back into my lane the pickup completely stalled out jerking us forward into our seat belts and then kept going. Later that day I went thru a drive thru and when I was turning the steering wheel jerked and wasn't able to continue turning and the pickup died. I had to lock the steering wheel in order to get it started again. This isn't the only time the first issues have happened or the steering wheel being jerked and stalling out, but this is the first time it completely stalled out in the highway and that is not okay. That is a complete safety issue and I'm not the only one who has had this issue, however when I have talked to a mechanic about it they couldn't find anything wrong and had no answer for me. There are several recalls on the years before the 2016 chevy silverado but nothing for them, and this is a big safety concern.

The transmission jerks when shifting or just driving as you’re accelerating and as you’re at cruising speed, the transmission has a shutter that creates a vibration through the truck. My safety was put at risk as I did not know if the transmission was gonna fail as bad as the truck was shaking. The dealer reproduced the same problems that I was having. Said the fix was to change out transmission oil with the new transmission oil. Had to pay for a flush and filter at 56,000 miles. There were no warning lights coming on for the vehicle. Just the shattering of the transmission.

LT275/65R20 Goodyear Trailrunner On vacation and started feeling a wobble from the back. Pulled over to see a bubble on the tread and part of wall. Luckily I caught it before it blew apart. Finally found a tire at a dealership in Castroville, tx. Didn’t know they were discontinuing the tires until I got home to have another tire with a bubble which will be on another complaint. On another note my first complaint which is complaint #11530224 I forgot to mention the tire was a wrangler Trailrunner.

- #11530235July 3, 2023TIRES:TREAD/BELT
LT275/65R20 Wrangler Trailrunner After my second tire having a bubble, I was riding and felt a wobble so I took it to a car care in el campo, instead of getting the tires rotated and balanced. I had yet ANOTHER TIRE with a bubble. Tried to order another tire but come to find out that Good year discontinued this style of tire. I know they did it because of how bad a tire they have. So I had to order a full set of four new tires. So now I have one tire with less than 8000 miles and another with less than 500 miles and I had to pay for four new tires. I think Goodyear should pay for their mistake not write it off and make another tire without any recourse.

Automatic tailgate open by itself while vehicle was traveling at 65mph on I64 in Virginia between Charlottesville and Waynesboro. And when we stopped the tailgate reclosed by itself. But we lost our load in bed of truck. State police was called but no report was made because load did not cause accident.

- #11529707June 30, 2023ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
The wiring harness of the vehicle was placed too close to the frame and began wearing the wires down until they broke. Once this happened, the vehicle turned off while driving and would not restart for a few minutes. The vehicle would turn off repeatedly every few minutes leaving me stranded in the middle of the street until I could get the truck to turn off and restart. There was no warning on when the engine would shut off, it just happened randomly while driving and while in park.
