Interior of tailgate fills with rainwater when tailgate is down. Electrical components inside the tailgate are affected by the water/moisture including two rear view cameras, components associated of the power tailgate, and the electronic tailgate latch/lock. The rear-view camera has failed. Cameral failure is also affecting the proximity radar system which is working intermittently. The equipment failures have resulted in several near miss incidents. Warnings appear on the dashboard when attempting back up the vehicle. Proximity radar stops working without warning.

Rear window frame is leaking during rain or heavy dew. Causing saturated headliner, seats and carpet. Mold could develop and become a health factor. My 2 kids always ride in the back seat. This is a known issue for GM and are not taking action to correct this problem. Vehicle started leaking with 25,000 miles.

I own a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD pick-up, VIN: [XXX]. I use this truck primarily to haul a heavy horse trailer and to tow a travel trailer. Ever since I bought this truck I have had a problem with the trailering application. At times it will start working (especially if it has not been used in a while??), but every time I am actively using it there is an issue: -??The app will totally blank out giving me a black screen, and/or -??I will get a message that my trailer brakes are disconnected. I will stop, disconnect and reconnect the brakes, turn off the engine and restart, and so on. Nothing helps. I have had my truck in to the dealer (Bend Chevrolet) three times to have this repaired. Every time I get the reply that there is nothing they can do, that Chevrolet says this is a software issue and that they are working on it. See Bulletin [XXX] Trailering App is Non-Functional, published 11/5/2020. Chevrolet has been aware of this problem for over 3 years and has not come up with a solution? This feels like they are ignoring it. I have searched on-line and see that many Chevrolet Silverado owners have the same problem and are getting no assistance in solving it. For years. This is a safety problem. I haul in mountainous terrain and cannot afford to have issues with my trailering system, especially the brakes. I would like to see the NHTSA issue a recall on this problem and demand that Chevrolet fix it. Please contact me if you need additional information. I would really like to get this fixed.

While plowing, my ABS brake light came on along with a warning that the ESC was disabled and a trailer brake system warning.. This appears to have been a recall for 2020 1500's but I have a 2500. It would appear the recall needs to be expanded.

  • 505 miles
The transmission locked up when slowing down at a exit from Ohio turnpike. The vehicle was throne into a skid just missing two light poles. The vehicle only had 505 miles on it, the dealer installed a new transmission in it. We now have 650 miles on it and hope this or other issues of safety don't arise.we hope that there are not other trucks out there with this problem.
