Abrupt shifts when approaching a red light or stop and sometimes rough shifting.

The contact owns a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving 45 mph and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle failed to respond. The brake, the abs and the traction control warning lights were illuminated. Additionally, the messages "brake service failure "trailer brake system" "service trailer brake system" "service esc" were displayed on the GMC mobile app. The contact stated that he pumped the brake pedal; however, the failure persisted. The contact stated that as he was approaching the traffic light, he made a left turn into a ditch in order to stop the vehicle. The contact was able to pull out of the ditch. The contact stated that he activated the hazard lights and drove to the residence at 5 mph. The dealer was notified of the failure and an appointment was made to tow the vehicle to their location the following day. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 31,120.

While traveling on the instate at 70mph the truck started making a loud noise and started feeling like all tires were flat. Getting off the road the routors were very hot. Getting back on the interstate to get to an exit, a message appeared that said brake failure. There were no brakes when pedal was applied. It was towed to the integrity chevrolot in chattanooga, TN. A case was opened with general motors #9-12243446777. GMC reported to us that the truck which we bought with 5900 miles (driven by a salesman), had had the brakes reprogrammed 4 times which we were unaware of. They reprogrammed the brakes, put on new brake pads, milled the router and replaced the brake fluid, informing us this was needed, charging us $1210. GMC refused to pay because the dealership said it was normal wear and tear. Truck has 38,000 miles. Brake pads showed 62% front and 78% back life. We have emails as documentation. I was unable to upload but can forward if email address is provided.

This 2019 silverado pickup truck lurched forward on 2 different occasions. The first time it lurched forward, it was in a parking lot and no damage was done to the truck or any other vehicle. The second time our 2019 silverado pickup truck lurched forward I was turning around at a farm. The truck hit a wooden building on the farm and did damage to it and our truck did damage the front end of the truck to the tune of $3,474. 00. If someone was in front of the truck, they would have been killed or seriously injured. We have been very careful with the truck ever since. We could pull it into our garage and it could lurch forward and go through the garage wall.

Truck stay without breaks in the freeway randomly and bunch of lights came on.

Brakes locked up and rear end slide out when just feathering the brakes into a turn in the cold.

The contact owns a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 3 mph up the driveway, he heard an abnormal sound as if the vehicle was being struck in the rear. The contact stated that the vehicle stopped abruptly, as if he had depressed the brake pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the engine was still running. The contact placed the vehicle in park(p), turned the vehicle off, and then restarted the vehicle, and shifted into drive(d) and was able to continue driving. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent at first but had since become a recurring failure while driving at various speeds. The contact was able to drive the vehicle to a local dealer who diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the electronic brake control module (ebcm) software needed to be updated. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact researched online and related the failure to NHTSA campaign number: 19v889000 (service brakes, hydraulic, service brakes, electronic stability control) however, the vehicle was not included. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 154,000.

I started vehicle. Everything seemed fine. Drove 2 blocks and all eletricals started acting up. Lights flashing all warning lights went off. Service brakes, service parking brake, service ecm, etc. Motor started to bog down and major knocking from engine. Took to GMC dealership. They found issues with lifters and had to replace all lifters and camshaft. Also replaced faulty brake sensor. Get truck back and oil cooler hose or line came off and was leaking oil. 1 week after repairs. Take back to dealership for repairs. 2 weeks later went to start truck all electronics went haywire, lights flashing, all warning lights start going off again. Truck will not start. Let sit for 15 mins. Try starting and no electrical power at all. Truck will not shift out of park. Major issue. Sounds to be a common issue with 2019 trail boss. Only has 40,000 miles.

I bought a 2019 chevy silverado z71 trail boss a month ago and just bought a camper and went and towed to to a camp ground thous weekend and the transmission headed up to 270 degrees took it in the torque converter was bad and towed it some transmission still getting to 250 and won't shift right and transmission with out the camper still jurks into gear and the brakes when u step on them shutter alot.

The messages "service parking brake" and "service esc" were displayed. The check engine warning light was also illuminated. The contact was able to veer to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that cylinder #5 lifters had collapsed. The dealer informed the contact that the cylinder lifters needed to be replaced. Additionally, the camshaft would be replaced as necessary. The vehicle was being repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 104,000.

Currently own a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 texas edition z-71. Transmission continues to hard shift / lunge in forward and reverse. The transmission has popped so hard, on multiple occasions that I was convinced that someone had hit me from behind and had to pull over. The downshift is occasionally so hard that it that you jerk forward out of the seat. In October of 2022 the downshift at 15 mph made me lose control of my truck and utility trailer, sliding me into a small tree causing over two thousand dollars in damages. The suspension is also extremely shaky and any rough terrain makes the vehicle uncontrollable even at low speeds. I have almost had 3 additional accidents because of loss of control in rain and snow. The suspension is also noisy when you first drive with a grinding / rubbing sound. Vehicle has been in for service for these issues on more than one occasion and I have been told they cannot find anything wrong. I have had a transmission code in the past that eventually turned off. A quick internet search shows these all to be known issues and Chevrolet refuses to address of repair these major safety issues.

Trailer brake service indication comes on constantly and cannot see speed use the radio or make a call. Already have changed the switch that they say is the problem, did not fix issues. Other mechanics on the internet are saying it's a wire harness between the switch and the module this needs to be replaced due to poor quality. We'll have a professional mechanic assess this but it looks like it's a common problem across the board. Please get gm to issue a recall on this because it becomes a safety issue, distraction and not able to read speed. Thanks.

While I’m driving the truck will start jolting and driving rough. When I looked at the dashboard it said that the parking break is on. This has occurred on several occasions now. I have never used my parking break in this truck because I live in an area that is pretty flat.

I was involved in an accident on one 2623. My vehicle was struck. However, my airbags did not deploy. Also, the diagnosis code did not show in remains faulty.

2019 chevy silverado rst turbo. 46k miles. Truck would feel like it skipped a gear a few times for a few months; I chalked it up to needing a new air filter. Had that and the oil changed. Ran normal for about 3 weeks. Check engine light came on and began flashing, service esc and service parking brake lights came on. Truck would vibrate while at an idle. Truck would not get up and go and when it go to 30mph, it would violently shake and stutter. Changed the 4 spark plugs, with number 4 being the worst, then 1, then 2 and 3. Mind you, the truck only has 46k miles. Got them replaced, removed the negative battery terminal to reset the codes and now the heat isn't working.

Pressed the brake and service esc/ service brake assist/ check engine/ abs/ lights came on. Speed was restricted to 43 mph, speed was restricted to 62 mph. Cruise control was disabled. Brake pad monitoring system read incorrectly. Took it to dealership for further inspection.

Lost all power steering and brake pedal did not work properly. Could not steer vehicle at all even using both hands on steering wheel. I shut off the truck, turned it back on and "service power steering" light came on the dashboard. Steering did not work at all so I shut it off. Called dealer to report problem and left a message to call me back. ( I did not hear back from the dealer. ) after a short period of time, I restarted the truck and the service light was still on, but the steering and brakes were working so I drove it home. I took it to the dealership on sept 5th to explain what happened. They pulled up 8 codes from the truck and made me an appt for sept 8th. They informed me that there was a wire chafing problem with this particular truck, but upon inspection on the 8th, they said they could not find a bad wire. They told me to drive it until it happens again! not being able to steer or brake are definitely safety issues !.

I have a 2019 chevy Silverado 1500 that has been well taken care of. I got into my truck and went to start it and a bunch of warning lights appeared stating brake system failure, service esc, traction control off and 4wd off. The check engine light also came on with multiple other warning lights. I had a family member jump my truck and I was able to make it home. I hooked it up to my code reader and it showed- p25a2 brake system control module 1. This has been a known issue and has been recalled twice for about 550,000 of the 2019 Silverado 1500, but my VIN isn’t included, even though it’s clearly having the same issue. The fix is to have the brake system reprogrammed by the dealership. Since my VIN isn’t listed I’m not getting any help with the issue.

I had to use my brakes hard because someone pulled in front of me. It drove fine for 10 miles afterwards on the interstate. I parked and turned the truck off but when I returned and turned the truck on the dash read abs , traction control, ebs need service or failed as well as 43 miles per hour maximum speed. The power brakes do not work and the truck will not drive more then 43 mph.

The ball joint for the front left tire broke while driving on a straight road and caused over $2,100 worth of damage to the wheel, axle, brake, etc. I had no warning or anything when this happened. It felt like my tire popped and when I pulled over, the wheel was still attached but was sitting at an awkward angle. The shop quoted me at $2,154 as there were 5 or 6 different parts they needed to repair including the ball joint, axle, brakes, brake sensors, rim, etc.

Event in order: -autostart, failure -started with key -“action required” - “steering assist is reduced, drive with care” -“service” - “trailer brake system” -“dash panel information” not available – fuel economy and oil life -“traction control light on” -put truck in reverse, gear not engaged, no response -put truck in drive, worked, but steering very difficult and made vehicle not safe to drive and/or operate. This has happened to me once before but not to this extent, last was when I was driving and thankfully I was able to pull over and turn the vehicle off. It would not start after repeated attempts but finally started after and functioned normally. These events had not check engine lights and when serviced, the mechanics said they didn’t see anything when scanned. Onstar diagnostics had no report when I had it active. I bought this truck less than 18,000 miles ago. Initially bought at 17,181 miles on Feb 22, 2021 and is now at 34,675 miles as of oct 29, 2021. This is a safety concern as the steering fail can potentially lead to an accident if the truck can’t be controlled. Traction control failure can lead to the vehicle becoming stalled in a dangerous situation. Brake systems can lead to unwanted breaking and/or being unable to break. This truck is a danger to operate. I do have video but, upload does not support mp4 format.

We bought the truck on 09-30-2021 with 24992 miles on it , brakes are all 4 horrible, no pads left and all 4 rotors are shot . This is a problem with this truck from the reports of this vehicle having premature brake wear from the customer satisfaction program . It is sitting at the repair shop as we speak with almost $1000 in brake repair that needs to be done . This is very unsafe . Please let me know what I need to do to be reimbursed . There has been prior recalls on this truck also for brakes.

Abs brake assist module failed. Warning lights and indicators alerted the problem and the vehicle lost power assist braking. I was able to drive the vehicle to the local dealership as the warning message on the dash indicated the vehicle could not exceed 40 mph with manual braking. Service tech diagnosed the module had failed, stated they are beginning to see this issue in more and more 2019 vehicles.

Service trailer brake system - warning code is displayed every time the vehicle is started and must be dismissed. This does not allow for safe towing and braking. Social media has displayed numerous other chevy trucks with this problem and have stated "cheap wire harness. " this needs to be replaced by the manufacture for using cheap materials.

On September 11 at approx. 1630 hrs. My wife and I were going out for dinner. I stopped at a stop light on a hill. Transmission in drive, foot on the brake. Our truck suddenly started rolling backward. I looked at the dash, no warning lights, gauges still working, transmission in drive, I stood on the brake pedal, no effect, I put transmission in park, no effect, I engaged the parking brake, no effect other than the parking brake warning light came on. We had rolled back approximately 50 feet. I looked in my rear view mirror and observed a car approaching. Luckily he/she saw my problem and stopped. Things suddenly started coming back to life and came to a gentle stop. When I looked in my mirror I was so close to the car behind me all I could see was his windshield, no hood. I moved the transmission from park to drive and we continued on. I have contacted the dealer and they are attempting to determine what happened. However, I am afraid this will happen to someone else who may not be as lucky as I was or that it may happen to me again. I pull a 5th wheel trailer with this truck.

Started to drive my truck this morning and it was driving very rough. Dashboard warning lights came on; service parking brake, service esc, check engine light, stability control light, parking brake on indicator. None of this was happening yesterday. It just happened this morning. This truck only has 7,100 miles on it.

Started truck up after parking for 20 minutes and the brake esc service light on dash came on and stated that there was a problem and I would not be able to drive over 43 mph, the abs, traction control were also shut down. I drove this to the local gm dealer who is now working on this for the third day and can't figure out what is wrong. The programing for the brakes was gone, they reprogrammed and it cleared out immediately. They are working with gm to attempt to fix the issue once they figure it out.

Check engine light came on and is currently pulling the following codes. P25a2 u0146 u0101 u0100 mil status- off freeze frame dtc- u0146 I had an oil change done by hare chevy in noblesville 2 weeks ago, never an issue with my truck until after I left the dealership. Stanley chevy in mccordsville looked at it this morning and said they have to order a bunch of parts for it, including new leaf springs for a truck that is less than 2 years old…never have heard of such a thing.

Stabilitrak was set off due to air bag module going bad. When braking it locked up 3 of the 4 tires abs went nuts but didn’t stop it from locking up.

Rear brake pads sticky on brake disc after car washing and back to my home the brakes still blocked and pads sticked on brake disc.

The "service brake system" and "service esc" lights came on, along with the service engine light and rough idle, resisted roll (slight brake applied, perhaps?) and per the dealer, no code was stored and there is no fix. Bulletin pit5728b says different and not to drive the vehicle until fixed. I am refusing to accept my vehicle back until fixed as of 27 Apr 2021.

While driving at 25 mph, all 4 brakes locked up. This happened 4 times then the truck was parked. I was turning on a state highway .

I was given a 2019 chevy silverado and when I turned the truck off the shift to park light would stay on and in February the brakes froze with the bad freeze when it thawed the brakes just started locking up by them selves I could not get over 5-6 mph so I made an app with dealership took it in told them what it was doing they had it a week they replaced shifter handle and bolt and reset codes I get the truck back did not have it 24 hrs I was leaving where I was fishing that morning I was going maybe 40 mph when the abs and other lights came on on dash and the brakes locked up again sending me sliding about 60 yards when I ended up in a ditch I tried to get out and the truck would not move so I get out and look to see my front passenger tire completely broke off folding up under truck. No one else was involved I automatically called dealership told them what happen filed a crash report and tow truck took truck back to dealership I contacted gm snd they sent an investigator to look at it but denied my claim said it was not a manufactur defect. . So no one is wanting to fix my truck now it’s still under warranty with less than 19000 miles on it. . . And if I was to pay out my pocket to fix it I feel that it will happen again cause the freeze did something to the electrical brake system. . The truck is a year and 4 mts old. Paid cash for it and not I can’t even drive it. .
