general problems of the 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 - part 2

2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 5. 3 litre v8 1. Low speed brake failure. Problem seems more prevalent while vehichle is in reverse. 2. Had to use emergency brake to stop the vehicle. 3. Not yet but research show safety recall for 2014-2018 vehicles. When I searched on my VIN it did not show up and I never received any recall notice. 4. No 5. No - problem has occurred intermittently several times.

Engine has always “ticked” since new took it multiple times to dealer they said it’s normal. Took it to shop they say its pushrods. Brakes front they wear unevenly even after being replaced by shop it always feels like truck is braking feels like it takes extra effort on gas pedal transmission its a 6l80 only 85,000 miles and already there is metal shavings in pan and transmission is shifting hard and slipping.

At low speed my brake pedal goes all the way to the floor like I am losing my braking power completely. I found a recall on this issue but my truck doesnt seem to be included in this. How can I get my truck repaired before I kill someone.

Vehicle only has 86,000 miles. Brake vacuum pump issue has failed and almost caused an accident or even death. I took my tuck at an easy trail in big sur CA. Brakes wasn’t working properly. I feared it would completely fail and cause us to fall off the cliff. Fortunately we got off that trail, but as we continued to drive on highway 1 the brakes would not stop the vehicle as it should. The truck would still move forward or even in reverse with the brakes pressed down. Brake pedal was hard to press and would get stuck. There were no warning lamps on to alert me. This issue has been going on for about a year and has finally given out. The vehicle has been inspected and brake vacuum pump replaced by smith Chevrolet in turlock CA. I was told by the service person that chevy has a 150,000 mile warranty on the brake vacuum pump part only so mine was covered. After inspection I was told that the brake vacuum pump had no fluids at all. Vacuum pump is defective.

1: brakes concerns: I feel unsafe driving my truck. Brake pedals gets stuck, seems like a brake vacuum pump issue. Vehicle keeps slowly rolling forward or backwards even when brakes are applied. Even worse when on an inclined road, the truck will not brake properly as it should. It is very dangerous to my safety and others. It comes and goes, but it seems to be getting worse now. I have made an appointment to chevy so that they can inspect it. But I am sure they wont help me since my truck is slightly over the manufacturers warranty. As always I know they will try to sell me an extended warranty. I fear this issue will get me in an accident. I have also looked online and have read a few articles about 2017 chevy silverado owners who are having the same issue.

The problem started about 3 days ago I was driving to work and I was coming to a stop at a red light then it said “trailer brake system” and then it completely shut my truck off and my brakes were really hard and my steering wheel was stiff then another day it did the same thing and after it was telling me all my blinker were about to go out.

Trailer assist alarm keeps coming on intermittently. Then the brakes are very difficult to press. Almost feels like the brakes need to be bled. It only happens intermittently as well. It is very dangerous while driving as I cannot safely stop at red lights.

While starting from a park position, I was pulling into a parking space. I went to apply the brake and the brake pedal went to the floor where the vehicle did not stop immediately. This is happened three times. This occurred twice with me and once with my wife driving. This seems sporadic and happens at low speeds in my parking areas or something like that.

In slow driving the braking system is requires significant effort and requires increased distance to stop. Service braking system message comes across the dash and goes away after a restart of the vehicle. Gm has a recall for this issue but will not perform the programming required a second time despite it being a known manufactures defect.

It is difficult to brake at low speeds; I have to press very hard for it to brake. I took my 2017 Chevrolet silverado in to a shop in reference to a safety recall, they said they followed the procedures for that recall, but I have the same issue. I believe the proposed solution is not fixing the problem. This has been on going for at least three years. To be clear, this happens when there is repetitive braking at low speeds. Typically after three times braking at low speeds (0-5 mph). What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? brake how was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? it is difficult to brake anytime there is repetitive braking at low speeds, including but not limited to parking lots, drive thru, or heavy traffic. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? yes, per the safety recall message. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? yes. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? sometimes there is a "brake assist warning" message.

I have notice from onstar for issues with antilock braking and on the vehicle dash notice for brake assist problems. I have experienced pedal pressure changes at very slow speed where I had to push very hard to stop the vehicle. Search and info from consumer reports indicates this is a problem for this model year, however I have not been notified of a recall and none is listed on this web site. I have scheduled service, but I believe this vehicle should be added to the recall.

I was driving on a road trip and when approaching a traffic light when I went to stop the brake pedal was hard, could not be pushed, and the truck would not stop this happened several times during the trip the next day on star notified me and says there is a problem with the brake assist system seems to be a common problem with these trucks but there is no recall on my truck this is very dangerous because the truck will not stop people are going to get hurt or killed due to this problem with these trucks.

I was traveling approximately 20mph on a side street that was snow covered when I came to an uncontrolled intersection where there was another vehicle approaching from my right and when I began to break the abs stabilitrak lights came on and my vehicle began to slide all over the roadway. Abs light stabilitrak and service trailer brakes come on causing the vehicle to slide on icy roadways. Bought the car brand new and has 45k miles. The diagnostic pulls up right rear speed sensor, so I replaced it and it still comes on with warning lights and sounds. I’ve tried to find more information on the internet and it seems a lot of people have had the same issues for many years with this problem.

It started to struggle to turn on, until it finally would not start. Gave a warning service trailer brake system.

While in drive thru or slow speeds in parking lot have lost braking power. Pedal just goes completely soft and sounds like abs activating.

I had to press the brakes exceptionally hard to stop at low speed. This occurred after having the recall reprogramming the electronic brake control module. I believe the pump needs to be replaced!.

Low brake pressure at low speeds.

I was driving north on hwy 60 just south of the hwy 73 turnoff in arizona. It was a windy mountain road. I was approaching a vehicle from behind and took my foot off the gas and hit the brakes. Nothing - nothing. I started pumping the brakes to the floor - still nothing. I was able to adjust my position on the road and travel between the two lanes of traffic - one northbound and the other southbound. I did slightly clip another vehicle. My truck rolled into a stop several miles later. When I was almost at a complete stop - the brakes finally engaged and the vehicle stopped. From where I stopped - it was a flat drive into showlow, az and there was no cell service where I was. I drove at appx 40-45 mph with my emergency flashers along the right side of the road. The truck is sitting on my lot in lakeside, az and has not yet been taken to the dealer for service. Several things to note: I have no recollection of the incident after the initial brakes failed and I took corrective action. My next memory was rolling to a stop on the side of the road. Right after the incident, which driving into town, I suffered a stroke and drove to the hospital. I was released 24 hours later and have since returned to phoenix. The truck is still in lakeside awaiting repair.

1. I lost power steering, power breaks, all dash lights/power and I believe air bags. The truck is available for inspection. 2. The first time I was traveling at 65mph in moderate traffic, it was very difficult to pull over to safety. The second time I was traveling at 50mph on a very windy road with heavy traffic. I almost hit another vehicle head on with several vehicles traveling in both lanes. The last time I was backing into my carport and almost bumped I to my house. 3. No, I called onstar the first time, they did a system check and said everything was good. I called a dealership the second time and they confirmed I had no open recalls and explained it would be difficult to troubleshoot because it was intermittent. 4. I will be calling back to the dealership in the morning to make an appointment. 5. I got the audible chime, the airbag light came on and the "trailer break" message came on the info center. But everything goes back to normal.
