The DEF fill tube is under the hood on the opposite side of the fuel filling tube. To fill the DEF at a truck stop, one has to park really close to the pumps and stretch the hose across a hot engine. One has to be careful that hot engine does not burn a hole in the DEF hose and cause a spill.
Headlights are foggy causing less and less light to drive by. Transmission has a hesitation when going from P-D, P-R, D-R, and R-D. It does this most of the time but not all the time. Transmission makes loud popping noises at times. Seems to be mostly when almost stopped or from almost stopped and then accelerating. Seems to try and shift gears also when truck goes into Regen mode when stopped at traffic light or stop sign making loud popping noises. It does this sometimes but not all of the time.
Severe shake when braking at high speeds, fuel tank failed (vehicle was spewing diesel) - it took 3 months to get a new tank, transfer case has failed multiple times. We have been having these problems since the day we picked up the truck.I have service records showing all the repairs.

November 20, 2019 with only 1380 on the new 2019 Silverado. While leaving a parking garage in the morning in reno, Nevada it was 28 degrees. When driving out the transmission seemed to have lost connection. The engine was running but the transmission was not engaging. I feathered the throttle and it reengaged. After entering the street I travelled about 300 to 600 feet and the transmission went to shift but neutralized. Again, I feathered the throttle and it engaged again. At about 2500 miles the transmission did it again. The dealership said that they have contacted Chevrolet about the problem, but Chevrolet does not have a fix for it. The dealership service advisor told me that in the future to start the vehicle and let it run for 3-5 minutes before driving the vehicle.
While driving in town and slowing down the transmission down shifts and makes a loud clunk noise just below 10 mph and ether the transmission or rear differential lock up and make the rear tires lock up for about one second. This happens more during the first drive in the morning but will happen anytime with no warning. I am very worried about towing with it. ## VIN passed ##, ##
