general problems of the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500

The variable geometry turbocharger actuator failed on my 2019 2500hd silverado. There was a significant decrease in power. This was most noticeable on uphill grades where speed would drop to between 35 and 40 mph on a 75mph speed limit highway. On several occasions, vehicles came close to hitting me because of my slow speed.

The contact owns a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. While driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated.

All or most of the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 3500 models are having the same exact issue, the coolant hoses that cools transmission oil are exposed metal to metal rubbing against each others, and over time from driving normally will eventually cause transmission oil leaks in different areas of the hose element, gm technicians acknowledge it a faulty design from the manufacturer , so gm adapted a customer loyalty program but only to deny a fix or repair at there own expense. This is definitely should fall under a manufacturer recall.

I was driving my truck and lost full power to the truck. Which happened as I was pulling out of a parking. The truck went into a limp mode. With the truck losing full power, it put my child and I into a safety risk. The truck got repaired at the dealership. The dealer was able to reproduce the issue. The truck was inspected at the dealership. Warning system did come on saying speed would be limited if (roughly 150 miles to a max 65mph). When I called another dealership, they said this was a normal thing for these trucks and chevy hasn't fixed it. I feel like if its a known issue with the wiring becoming free, why would they not proactively fix this issue before someone gets hurts from thinking they have the power to drive. The dealership that I took this too knew where to look right away as this is common.

The def system and turbo system. It will not let me tow nothing. And has started limited my speed to 65mph and says in 55 miles it will restrict to 55mph. I need my truck for work.

Vehicle caught fire in engine compartment and caught rest of truck on fire .

Prior to 04/25/21 and 08/25/21 I was traveling 60mph on I-205 in the fast lane when my truck went into limp mode. I nearly caused an accident because the truck started shaking, all check engine lights illuminated, and it was challenging to navigate to the right lane and off the highway. This happened on two separate occasions. Gm sent a letter dated August 2021 that my truck, "equipped with a 6. 6l diesel engine, may have a condition that could cause the engine glow plugs to fail. " the letter goes on to say that gm will cover this issue "within 15 years of the date your vehicle was originally placed in service or 150,000 miles (240,000 km), whichever occurs first, the condition will be repaired for you at no charge. " gm charged me for the repair. The issue is the language in the letter and the word "condition". My interpretation is the "condition" that caused the glow plug to fail is what should be warranted. Nowhere in the gm's letter does is state the glow plugs may fail and we will only warranty glow plugs. What caused the glow plug(s) to fail was the electrical connector. The electrical connector is what caused the glow plug to fail. The glow plug by itself was not the "condition" that caused it to fail, the "condition" was a faulty electrical connector. Gm must be held accountable to cover this safety defect. I have attached all documents pertaining to this incident. Please advise.

The truck was issued a recall for the engine blocker heater which was performed. Since that recall was performed I keep getting low coolant warnings on the dash in error. The vehicles was taken back to dealer and everything was checked. They refilled the system just incase there was an air pocket but they warned me about 4 out of 10 people that have the recall performed continually get a low coolant light. The truck was fine for 2 months and now I'm back to having the low coolant light on. The coolant level looks fine. I called the dealer and they said gm knows about it but no fix is available because throwing parts at it like a new reservoir tank and coolant sensor doesn't seem to fix the issue. We're being told to simply ignore the warning displayed on the dash for now. To me it is totally unacceptable that the "fix" for the engine clock heater recall has now created a secondary issue that has not been addressed. Since you have the database of vins that were part of the engine block heater recall I ask that you reach out to those people that have had the fix performed and find out how many are now having a low coolant issue as a result of that repair being made.

The engine surges when letting out of the pedal and coming to a stop. I have been told by the chevy service department that they don't see it.

Vehicle often dose regen (burning of diesel exhaust for emissions). When vehicle is in regen, outside of the truck, there is a strong odor of burnt rubber mixed with toxic fumes. It is more noticeable on the passenger side rear under the right rear tire. You can also smell exhaust gasses inside the vehicle.

When vehicle is accelerating anywhere from 30-50 mph, the truck loses power for several seconds, and starts sputtering or chugging. The rpm on the dash starts bouncing up and down. This goes on for several seconds and truck slows down. It then goes away and can continue driving. However, when towing trailers, the effect is only increased and the truck slows down even more.
