ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
MY TRUCK WAS RECALLED I RECEIVED A CALL FROM MY DEALER ABOUT THE RECALL. I TOOK MY TRUCK TO DECATUR JAMES WOODS CHEVROLET WHICH PERFORMED A RECALL ON THE EPS MODULE FOR A STEERING RECALL. NOTE PRIOR TO ME TAKING MY VEHICLE IN I HAD NO PROBLEMS OR ISSUES. I TAKE MY TRUCK IN FOR DOCUMENTED OIL CHANGES AND SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. ONCE THEY DID THE RECALL FLASH UPDATE REPROGRAMMING I PICKED UP MY TRUCK AND ON THE WAY HOME THE DASH LIGHTS BLINKED OFF THE STABILITRAC ERROR AND TOW HAUL ERROR BOTH CAME UP. I CALLED THE SERVICE DEPT IMMEDIATELY ON THE WAY USING HANDS FREE SYSTEM AND THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THE RECALL COULDN'T CAUSE THAT. ON THE ROAD TO MY HOUSE THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED OUT OF MY HANDS LIGHT SPRAIN TO MY WRIST AND ALMOST TOOK ME OFF THE ROAD AS THE BRAKES ALSO FAILED TO WORK VERY WELL. THE TRUCK DIED TO A STOP. WHEN I RESTARTED IT SHOWED NO ERRORS AND ALL WORKED AGAIN. THE NEXT MORNING WHEN STARTED IT DISPLAYED A CALIBRATION ERROR AND HAD ME OPEN AND CLOSE MY DRIVER WINDOW. WHEN DRIVING TO MY DEALERSHIP JERRY'S CHEVY IT BLINKED THE DASH AGAIN WHEN I USED MY BLINKER TO CHANGE LANES. THE POWER AND RPM WHERE ALL OVER THE PLACE AND RUNNING VERY ROUGH. WHEN I GOT TO JERRY'S THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T TOUCH IT AND TAKE THE LIABILITY AND TO TAKE IT BACK TO DECATUR THEY HAD MESSED SOMETHING UP. NEXT MORNING TO TO LOCAL MECHANIC WE HAVE USED THEY PUT COMPUTER DIAGNOSTIC ON IT AND SHOWED ALL KINDS OF ERRORS AS WE TEST DROVE WHILE HOOKED UP. HE SAID THE RECALL PROGRAM HAS EVIDENTLY CAUSED COMMUNICATION ISSUES TO OTHER MODULES AND CAN TEAR UP THE TRUCK. I TOOK IT BACK TO DECATUR THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T GET TO IT AND TO COME BACK THE NEXT DAY. I DROPPED IT OFF TRUCK STILL HAVING ISSUES AND RUNNING AND SOUNDING WORSE AND LOSING POWER AND VOLTAGE GAUGE DROPPING AND GOING BACK TO NORMAL. SAFETY CONCERN FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS ON ROAD DUE TO THIS RECALL FLASH.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE DRIVING INTO TOWN FROM A WEEKEND TRIP, WHEN TRYING TO STOP FOR A RED LIGHT FROM THE HIGHWAY, THE BRAKE PEDAL IMMEDIATELY BECAME STIFF AND WOULDN'T SLOW THE VEHICLE. IT REQUIRED BOTH FEET PRESSING DOWN HARD ON THE PEDAL IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE IN TIME. AFTER TURNING OFF THE TRUCK AND RESTARTING IT, THE BRAKE PEDAL RELEASED ITS PRESSURE AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY. HOWEVER, WHEN COMING TO A STOP TO BACK INTO MY GARAGE, THE BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN, WAS UNDER PRESSURE, AND WOULD NOT STOP MY VEHICLE UNLESS EXCESSIVE FORCE WAS APPLIED. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE, JUST FEET FROM THE WALL IN THE ALLEY. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. LUCKILY, I DIDN'T HAVE ANY ISSUES WHILE GOING 75 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, OR I PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO WRITE THIS. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE TOWED TO MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY THE VACUUM PUMP WAS THE CAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. AFTER HAVING TO SHELL OUT MORE THAN $700 ON A PART FOR A TRUCK THAT'S A 2015 WITH 63,000 MILES WITH NO OTHER ISSUES, IS RIDICULOUS. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, AND IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY CHEVROLET. THIS ISN'T A PART THAT SHOULD FAIL ON THE VEHICLE.

AT LOW SPEEDS AND OR STARTING FROM A STOP AND REAPPLYING THE BRAKES THE BRAKE PEDAL GETS EXTREMELY HARD AND WILL NOT HOLD THE VEHICLE FROM ROLLING FORWARD. YOU MUST PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AS HARD AS YOU CAN WITH BOTH FEET TO TRY TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STOPPED. I HAVE TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AT EACH STOP. EACH OCCURRENCE HAS HAPPENED ON A CITY STREET.

I PURCHASED A 2015 CHEVY 2500 SILVERADO LTZ BLACK NEW. THE PAINT IS STARTING TO CHECK AND BUBBLE ON THE TRUCK. THE HOOD IS THE WORST SO FAR BUT U CAN SEE IT'S STARTING ON EVERY PANEL ON TRUCK. THE TRUCK HAS BARELY 50,000 MILES , HAS ALWAYS BEEN GARAGED, AND BABIED. I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND SAY THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE IT OVER 3 YEAR 36000 MILE CORROSION WARRANTY. I'VE BEEN A CHEVY TRUCK DRIVER FOR 25 YEARS I WILL SOON BE DRIVING ANOTHER BRAND AND WILL BE SHOWING AND TELLING PEOPLE HOW THEY BACK THE PRODUCT. VERY DISAPPOINTED!
