General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks. The battery positive (B+) cable rings may have been manufactured with excessive glue, potentially causing an intermittent electrical connection between the B+ cable and alternator.

ON 1/10/20, I WAS DRIVING HOME ON A MAJOR FREEWAY. JUST BEFORE 5:00 PM I HIT TRAFFIC AND SLOWED DOWN TO ROUGHLY 5-10 MPH. AT THAT MOMENT MY DASHBOARD LIT UP AND A NOTIFICATION STATING, "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE" AND "SERVICE ESC" POPPED UP ON MY DASH. AT THAT POINT I WAS UNABLE TO STOP WHEN APPLYING MY BRAKES. LUCKILY I HAD A LARGE ENOUGH SPACE BETWEEN MY TRUCK AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AS WELL AS THE TWO LANES BESIDE ME HAVING AN OPENING AND I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER AND COAST TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE SHOULDER. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ELECTRONIC MALFUNCTION. HAD I LOST MY BRAKES 10 SECOND SOONER I WOULD HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO STOP AND CAUSED A POTENTIALLY FATAL CAR ACCIDENT.
Electronic stability control (ESC), Service brakes, Jan 11, 2020
STARTED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE AND THE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS NEARLY GONE. BRAKE PEDAL WAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THE TRUCK HAD TO SLOW TO A STOP. THANKFULLY I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AND NOT ON THE ROAD BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE PUT MY WELL-BEING AT RISK ALIGN WITH OTHERS. GM SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL ALL OF THE VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM!!! HOW CAN ANYONE BE ALLOWED TO SELL A VEHICLE THAT WILL NOT PROPERLY STOP WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED?

TWICE WHEN PULLING A SMALL EMPTY TRAILER RECENTLY, I CAME TO A STOP SIGN AND HAD ALMOST NO BRAKING POWER. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS HARD AS CONCRETE WITH ALMOST NO TRAVEL AND I HAD TO STAND ON IT TO STOP THE TRUCK WHICH ROLLED INTO THE INTERSECTION BOTH TIMES. BOTH ATTEMPTED STOPS WERE FROM A LOW SPEED AND I DIDN'T HAVE ANY ISSUES BEFORE OR AFTER AND NO WARNING LIGHTS. GOOD THING I LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN WITH VERY LITTLE TRAFFIC OR I COULD HAVE BEEN T-BONED.

I OWN A 2019 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 LTZ. I PURCHASED IT NEW 35 DAYS AGO. I RECENTLY ENCOUNTERED A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST IT'S BRAKING ABILITY. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS FULLY DEPRESSED BUT THE TRUCK WOULD NOT STOP. THE VEHICLE COASTED UNTIL IT CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE DISPLAY INDICATED SERVICE TRAIIER BRAKE SYSTEM, SERVICE ESC, BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE, AND CEL. I POWERED THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTED IT. THE CEL REMAINED ON. THE OTHER LIGHTS WENT AWAY. THE BRAKES APPEARED TO WORK BETTER BUT WHEN I APPLIED THEM I EXPERIENCED A JERKING MOTION. I CALLED MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP, PRINCE CHEVROLET, LEDO RD. ALBANY, GA. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT THAT YIELDED NO RESOLUTION AS MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON WHEN I LEFT THE APPOINTMENT AND IS STILL ON NOW. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM "MIGHT" BE A RESULT OF STARTING MY VEHICLE USING THE "MY CHEVROLET" MOBILE APP. I WAS INFORMED THAT NOTHING WAS DONE TO REPAIR THE ISSUE AS THEY DIDN'T KNOW EXACTLY HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM AT THIS TIME. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE TECH DID FIND A SERVICE BULLETIN AND BASED UPON THE CONTENTS THEREOF, I WAS ADVISED NOT TO USE THE APP ANYMORE. FURTHER, I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD RECEIVE A CALL WHEN A SOLUTION WAS DETERMINED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2400.

SERVICE REAR VISION SYSTEM AND BLUE SCREEN FOR BACKUP CAMERA AND CAMERA SYSTEM ON TRUCK HAS BEEN INTERMITTENTLY NOT WORKING SINCE PURCHASED ON 5/18/19. HAVE HAD THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER TWICE TO FIX. FIRST TIME REPLACED REAR CAMERA. ISSUE RETURNED NEXT DAY. SECOND TIME, DEALER POINTED TO A TSP THAT INDICATED THE SYSTEM WAS BUSY WHEN FIRST STARTING THE VEHICLE AND TO ALLOW FOR EXTRA TIME TO PLACE VEHICLE IN REVERSE. ISSUE IS NOT RELATED TO PLACING THE CAR IN GEAR, IT ONLY SHOWS THE ISSUE. ISSUE APPEARS TO BE A SOFTWARE ISSUE IN WHICH THE SYSTEM DOESN'T GET BOOTED UP IN A TIMELY MANNER. AFTER SOME TIME, HAS BEEN RANDOM FROM 2-3 MINUTES TO OVER 30 MINUTES, THE SYSTEM WILL EVENTUALLY COME ONLINE AND WORK PROPERLY. THE ISSUE I HAVE IS MANY OF MY TRIPS ARE JUST A FEW MINUTES UP THE ROAD TO MY FIREHOUSE I VOLUNTEER AT. THE TRUCK DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO COMPLETELY BOOT UP THE CAMERA SYSTEM AND I'M LEFT WITH A BLUE SCREEN WITH NO WAY TO RESET IT OR USE THE CAMERAS. I'VE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER AND CHEVROLET AND CHEVROLET INITIALLY CALLED BACK WANTING ME TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID HE WOULD INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE AND CALL ME BACK TO SCHEDULE A FIX. NO WORD IN OVER 1 MONTH NOW. I SEE ON SEVERAL FORUMS OTHER USERS STRUGGLING WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND SO FAR THERE SEEMS TO BE NO FIX. I'M NOT SURE GM KNOWS WHAT THE ISSUE IS AT THIS POINT. THERE SEEMS TO BE NO WAY TO ALERT THEM AND GET THE RIGHT PEOPLE WORKING ON THE ISSUE. HOPING THIS VENUE WILL BE ABLE TO WAKE SOMEONE UP AT GM. ISSUE IS CONSISTENTLY RANDOM. SOMETIMES IT LOADS QUICKER THAN OTHER TIMES, BUT IS CONSISTENT IN NOT WANTING TO WORK WHEN NEEDED.

WHEN PUTTING VEHICLE IN DRIVE FROM PARK IT JUMPS FORWARD EVEN WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE. WHEN GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE IT FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN GEAR AND THEN ENGAGES AND THEN THE VEHICLE MAKES A CLUNK NOISE AND ABRUPTLY JUMPS FORWARD. THERE IS ALSO A ISSUE WHEN GOING FROM FIRST TO SECOND WHEN ACCELERATING AND THE SAME WHEN DOWNSHIFTING. THE TRANSMISSION ON THIS VEHICLE IS VERY ERRATIC IN NATURE, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT IT IS GOING TO DO EVERY TIME YOU DRIVE IT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE FIRST 100 MILES AND I NOW HAVE 8600 AND STILL HAPPENING.
