This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
My vehicle started displaying a stabilitrak warning, gauge lights dimming, hard steering, and the ac turning off when I would push the brake pedal while driving. 15 miles later, while making a left hand turn, my vehicle shut off completely which caused a loss of power steering. I was able to avoid an accident as the vehicle did restart. Prior to this incident, I have taken the vehicle in twice to Chevrolet dealerships to diagnose this issue. Both times they stated they could not duplicate the issue so nothing was done. This seems to be a common issue for many 2014 Chevrolet Silverado owners.
Electronic power steering suddenly fails as low speeds, low speed turning, and backing up. Often occurs after dash lights flicker and stabilitrak warning comes up on dash monitor. Causes dangerous situations in parking lots trying to navigate around other cars. This is the second occurrence since purchasing the vehicle. I had it fixed once through a software fix. The problem has returned a year and a half later.
The vehicle has experienced dash and screen flickering while driving. When stopped and making turns the engine shuts off and the steering is locked. The whole dash goes blank. The engine is not able to restart or click. Anit-theft warning comes on for no reason. I feel there is a safety issue when driving this vehicle but no recalls have been placed. I don't feel safe driving my babies in the car.
Vehicle losses electric power steering specially at low speeds tends to jump to the right side or locks the steering wheel possibly accident if it continues. There are recalls on most trucks like mine but it seems that my truck is not in the list and it should be this is a real safety issue I believe that I report it to you before.

Multiple GM vehicles have an error with the traction control system that they cannot diagnose and continuously dismiss to cover their mistakes. Many makes and models report warnings to Service Stabilitrak and Service Breaks along with numerous other warnings. After the warning, drivers are experiencing power failure, locking steering wheels, wrecks, exponential costs for investigations, and temporary fixes. GM will not release any information on investigations into this matter. GM Technicians can not adequately diagnose the issue and will say there is a grounding problem, Traction Control module needs to be reset, replace the battery, and many other bogus repairs to temporarily fix the problem. How many people will have to experience these mechanical errors that can cause serious wrecks or fatalities before NHTSA or GM will investigate? All GM owners should be absolutely disappointed and disgusted with the response from the safety measures put in place to "protect us."
My 2014 Silverado had a hose leak in 2018. Three years later I have the exact same issue. It-??s a refrigerant leak. It has not been inspected this time around because it-??s clear that this will be an ongoing expensive problem that I cannot afford. It-??s in the 100-??s out here and even hotter in a vehicle. My family and are getting sick from heat exhaustion I need immediate relief, please.
The vehicle will intermittently start to have electrical glitches such as loss of electric power steering, A/C and radio shutting off, stabilitrack shutting off and engine shutoff. I've heard there is a known ground issue with this model and its can be dangerous when moving if you lose steering control and engine control. This has happened multiple times the most recent was 6/28/2021
The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle inadvertently shut-off. On several occasions, after the failure occurred, the vehicle independently restarted. During the failure, the power steering assist and traction control were inoperable. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who replaced the negative battery cable assembly, but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 72,000.
The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving at speeds under 30 mph, the vehicle loss motive power without warning. Additionally, while turning the steering wheel in either direction, the failure recurred without warning. While attempting to restart the vehicle, the message "roll down the window; then roll the wind back up" was displayed. The cause of the failure was not determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not yet notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 97,000.
Issue first noticed when backing into a parking spot, at low speeds, when I turn the wheel I look power steering abilitiy and have to fight to turn the wheel. At the same time I have issues with the electrical system...radio cuts off/on, stabitrack warning, doors unlock then lock, ac cuts off/on. After this happening very randomly for a few months it has progressively gotten worse. Most recently I was turning left on a busy street and the same above mentioned things happened, stalling me out in the middle of the street. I was luckly not to get hit due to a couple defensive drives able to avoid me. I have already hadthe Safety Recall fixed (#17276), however its the same exact symptoms as the recall.
Having issues where steering will lock up while driving at slow speeds. Air conditioner will stop radio will go out will get a message about stabalink and driving assist may have stopped. Will be like this for a few minutes and then I get control again. Also while driving on the highway I notice this
Vehicle will shut off while driving at low speeds. Also power steering will come on and off during turns. Happens often. Then a messege pops up on dash to lower than put up drive side window. This happens without any warning.
Check engine light comes on P06dd. Initially it was a oil injector that needed replacing within the first 4 years of purchase of a new truck. When the code comes on later it's the oil pump. Oil pump has a pressure switch on it that says pump oil at 10 ppm, if it goes at 7 ppm it will cause the check engine light to come on.the oil pressure going into the engine at 7 ppm is not S serious issue and shouldn't cause the check engine light to come on.I live in a state county where you can't register your 1500 truck for a new vehicle registration with the check engine light on.the dealer wants to bill me 10 hours of labor because of where the oil pump is located inside the engine.the local dealership wants to charge $1,000 for the replacement fo the oil pump and the connected sensor.I would like to see a recall effort happen which will not make the sensor enact the check engine light for small irreverent discretion with the pressure switch.
When I take low speed turns, either going forward or backwards, the power steering starts going in and out and the radio will turn off. Sometime the whole vehicle will shut off or just turn off then right back on. The stability track messege pops up on the dash. When this happens my vehicle will reset itself.
Vehicle's electrical system will fail while driving, it may fail during ignition, and it may fail immediately after shutdown. These failures are catastrophic. All systems in the vehicle fail at once. All steering and braking assistance, all lights, HVAC, ignition, fuel delivery, all electrical systems are affected by this dysfunction. This is highly dangerous as it can and does occur while driving at highway as well as residential speeds. Associated failures include various dash modules unresponsive or off intermittently, stabilitrac service message, action needed message: Roll down then up driver window, exterior and interior lighting including headlights flickering and dimming, frozen or glitched or otherwise unresponsive radio, steering wheel forcefully jerking without input from driver or road, 'traction off' indicators. All issues are sporadic, chronic, and debilitating. Vehicle has delivered stabilitrak messages and momentarily tripped all electronics while driving as well. Not every failure is complete, some glitches in the electrical may persistently occur under normal driving conditions, this puts un due strain on the attention, mindfulness, and peace a driver is reasonably expected to achieve in any vehicle. This has also been a precursor to complete failure and great care must be taken to remove the vehicle from roadways and traffic.
When I am driving I turn the blinker on or press the brake and the stable track comes on truck turns off at low speeds when I am turning the wheel or pressing the brake took it to the Chevy dealership and nothing I tell them I almost crashed due to this issue and they say it's your hole wired electrical system that doesn't make sense I tell them I need recalls done and they still do nothing
While driving, the "service trailer brakes system" kept coming on. There was a visual and audio warning chime that would not stop. Instead of a single notification to the driver, the intermittent connection would result in the error message continuously re-appearing and chiming. This was extremely distracting and could increase risk of crash. I removed the brake gain controller from the dash and found corrosion on an electrical contact strip. After cleaning it with electronics cleaner, the error message went away.
The vehicle will be in motion and when I try to turn onto a street, or into a parking lot, a warning for service stabilitrak will come on, the steering wheel will lock up, the A/C will turn off, the lcd radio display will go blank, and my headlights will flicker and or turn off. Sometimes the truck shuts off. Has almost caused 2-3 accidents so far... also while traveling at highway speeds, if I have the cruise control on and I put on my turn signal it will turn off the cruise control, and flicker my radio lcd display, and also cause a service stabilitrak warning. Sometimes when I apply the brake, my headlights will flicker, or turn off. Clearly an electrical issue. When researching the problem online there appears to be a recall for other Silverado's with these same issues, but there isn't one currently under my VIN number, however it appears to be the same problem. This has been an ongoing problem and is getting worse. The problem first started around 88,000 miles
Code P2138. Truck goes into "limp mode" when pedal harness sensor gets wet. (I.e. driving in heavy rain). Power and transmission reduce speed to less than 45mph. Will not go into any gear higher than 2nd. This happened to me on the interstate at driving at the posted speed limit of 75 mph. Had to pull over and limp 1 mile to the nearest off ramp creating a dangerous situation. Has been an ongoing issue.
