Vehicle was hard shifting from 1st to 2nd gear and back from 2nd to first gear. Periodic hard shifting would occur at highway speeds when attempting to pass. Vehicle was taken into the dealership. Deal had performed a smart learn on the transmission. Problem was corrected for approximately 50 miles. Problem came back and the dealership was contacted but they had no appointments available but stated vehicle was safe to drive. While at a stop light from red to green the vehicle lost all power, would not shift gears and check engine light came on. 7 codes were displayed all around the transmission valve cover and vales. Dealership said the vehicle was safe to drive and could not further diagnose the issue for several weeks. Drove the vehicle home approximately 7 miles and it would not shift out of 2nd gear. Called another dealership who said that the vehicle was not safe to drive and had it towed to the dealership. Dealer took it in replaces the valves and valve body but the vehicle has not been returned as issues are still persisting but dealership cannot locate reason for poor transmission performance and is tearing down the transmission. At this point the vehicle has been down for 2 weeks.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER
Rear camera view intermittently displays a blank or distorted image. This issue occurs almost every time when in reverse. In most occurrences, the screen will alternate between a blank screen with a warning indication and the video display several times within the same occurrence. After the video display reappears, the camera view sometimes freezes and does not display a live feed. These issues contribute to considerable risk and liability when the vehicle is in reverse. This issue is identical to a current recall on another vehicle. Please reference safety recall notice 22S06/ NHTSA Recall 22V082 for correlated information. The dealership refuses to acknowledge the issue and it has already contributed to physical damage when backing into my garage.

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The car has been running in remote start mode.mode. The problem with this car is that even when I shut off the vehicle, the engine keeps running.Onstar was able to come in overnight to retrieve the truck and deliver it to the dealer. It's not safe to drive a truck in these conditions, but since my family and I were on the other side of town, we decided to slow down and head home. Note : The truck was full of gas This is a safety issue that must be addressed as people leave their trucks inside their homes while the truck is still on. It also increase the level of CO2 inside the house hold . Another fact while the truck stayed on the air condition system also stayed on ( full power ) and i start smelling burned motor which i belive this would caused fire

The integrated trailer brake system fails shortly after plugging in a trailer. I have tried both my travel trailer and flatbed trailer. Both have the same issue. This started in November 2022, the first time I tried to pull one of my trailers. The message on the driver information panel would say Trailer Braking system disabled. System needs repair. I can't pull any trailer with electric brakes at this time. I purchased the truck in October 2022. Took it to the dealership I bought it from. They where able to make the message appear. This is reference document PIT5948A-GM. They say it is being worked on, but no resolution at this time. Not sure what I am suppose to do, as I would like to use my trailers.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
When connected to a trailer with trailer brakes, the driver information center displays a message check trailer brakes when I apply the brakes. After usually the 3rd brake application the driver information center displays a message-Trailer Brake Disabled. Local certified chevy dealer tested the brake components on a computer and verified it is the truck that has issues. They also stated there is no fix at this time and that Chevrolet has known about the issue. Our dealership said to drive it without them, that is irresponsible. My vehicle is available for inspection at any time. This is very dangerous and the truck should not be driven while towing a trailer. This is a continuous issue and not intermittent.

I turned the truck off. Waited a moment and restarted. All warnings were gone and truck acted as normal. LET ME BE VERY CLEAR THIS COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC.

I was following a vehicle at 3-4 car lengths at 35 MPH. The vehicle in front made an aggressive stop and although I immediately saw the incident, I could not stop in time with a full panic stop by pressing the brakes hard to the floor. My brakes felt greasy and even though I had enough separation, the truck did not decelerate much. I felt the anti-lock mechanism but it did not seem to slow the vehicle.
