Exterior Lighting problem #1

At least once a month gives a false trailer braking error and the truck brakes itself, dash dies, driver loses control over the vehicle. It is a risk of crashing or being hit because the truck stops itself in the middle of driving without brake lights coming on to alert other drivers. No way to overcome this - can't hit the gas pedal, etc. It seems to think that you are hauling a trailer and it thinks the trailer is swaying. . . Problem is this truck has never towed a trailer even one time. . . It's completely false. But also very dangerous.

Exterior Lighting problem #2

Imy 2013 chevy z21 has started leaking sround the light on top and back light on the hood of the truck. I noticed wet spot on back part of headliner and some mold in the area. I have found where other people have said the same problem on their 2013 silverado, I can't found any recalls on this. I feel there needs tio be a recall from what I have found about this. . My 3 year old son rides in the backseat right where the leak is. And I'm afraid it could make him sick.
