I bought the truck around [XXX] from Barkau CDJR, Freeport IL. Two hours away from the dealer the truck went completely dead in traffic. A message appeared on the info screen that said roll down the drivers window and back up to reset the system when the truck finally restarted. Got home with it and called the dealer and let the know. In the next few weeks it happened a couple of more times. It was taken to Tapper Chevrolet in Paw Paw, MI to be serviced. The tech thought it was a problem in the fuse Block and replaced that, after that on the week end the truck was returned the problem happened 3 times. Took it back to Tapper's and they checked it again, had it for 4 days and could not replicate the problem. Kept having issues and took it to 1st Choice Automotive LLC in Dowagiac, MI, he went through the wiring and cleaned some grounds and it seemed to work for a while. Now it is doing the same thing again. It just shuts down randomly for no reason. You lose steering, brakes, you have no control when it happens and no warning when it is going to happen. Have searched You Tube and have seen many other complaints of the same problem with no solution. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Water filtration from the shark antenna and rear third light, with possible short on a dash board and instrumental panel (already occurred more than once with no light on a instrumental panel and no function of the all gauges including speed gauge) the problem happened especially on rainy days on stationary vehicle and also in a driving conditions bolt city and highway time. The photo showing are only the recent but the problem happened several times before than now. This time was the worst ever
Radio and turn signal "clicking" sound will not work sometimes when truck is turned on. If I turn off vehicle and come back 5-10mins most of the time it will start working again. This has been going on for a couple of months and seems to be worst when it's cold outside.
Truck seems to lose power when slowing down. Steering wheel locks up. Dash display go dark and comes back. Stability track warning. Airbag warning. Headlights flicker. Ac and fan go out. Happens when making turns at a slow speed. And when hitting the brake at any speed.

Front headlight assemblies cracking only on the daytime running lights not on the high beam a known issue that GM is ignoring and its dealerships other owners are complaining about has greatly impacted me driving my truck at night like I said GM knows about the defect in their headlight assemblies as I was told from the GM mechanic and service writer and GM owners are complaining about it all over the inter net starts a little bit over time until its very noticable starts spider wed cracks
I was at a stop sign trying to make a left hand turn and the truck steering locked up and then it happened again in a drive thru fast food place. I'm scared it's going to cause me to wreck while driving. I have no control of the truck when it happens and my lights, radio, and door locks go out then come back on.

Headlights flickering when on. While in motion my stabilitrack light illuminates along with the seatbelt light. When using the turn signal the radio display goes out for about a second and turns back on. When braking the radio display goes off for a second. I get a low battery signal maybe 2 or 3 times a week, I drive my truck daily. It has 76K miles. I lose power steering after about 150 mile drive. Its been happening for about 3-4 months. 4/22/2019 was the worst. All of it happened yesterday on a 175 mile drive
I noticed a water leak in the head liner by the rear passenger seat. I had it inspected and I was told that there have been reports of water leaks coming through the third brake light above the back window. We tried fixing it using a new gasket, silicone, and even a new light with new seals and nothing has fixed the issue.
I was in an accident driving slow. Couldn't control the steering. Would only go straight. Air bag did not engage and seat belt did not work. Lights go dim and flash. Radio display not working correct. But main concern is inside lights go dim or flash.on city streets driving slow.
Rear tail light wiring harness for both right and left side let moisture in causing corrosion in the electrical plugs. The turn signals have been impacted and have had to both be replaced within 8 months of each other.
The third brake light on my 2015 1500 Silverado leaked into my headliner. Now there is a brown line all the way across my headliner above the rear window. Even the service guy at Chevy said it wouldn't leank anymore. He has had quite a few trucks come through with this issue. The fix was $153. How will I know if mold forms due to this? my truck was sitting in my driveway during the rain.
One morning when I was driving my 2015 Chevy Silverado, I noticed a message on the dash board screen which read "right rear tail light signal failure. I went to the nearest auto parts store and purchased replacement bulbs and noticed that the bulbs weren't the problem. I also checked the fuses and did not find any blown fuses which again wasn't the problem. However the right rear tail light will turn on if the lights are on but will not blink when the signal light is on or if the brakes are engaged. Later that night I realized that none of the interior lights worked either; weather the light is in the door position or the on position. I'm not really sure what the problem is but with this truck being so new with less than 45000 miles, these problems shouldn't be happening.
