problem #5

  • 32,000 miles
While driving the vehicle during nighttime hours the dashlights and navigation screen will turn to daylight mode which then makes the truck headlights turn off (when in auto mod) and the navigation screen is too bright and distracts you when driving. The dash lights and navigation screen will randomly switch between daytime and night time mode when driving.

Interior driver side front driver window button not always working. At times when this happens the door ajar is lit, while the door may be shut, it doesn't latch completely. This happens when the vehicle is in motion or in park. This causes the interior lamps to stay on and drain out the battery. I did have it serviced under warranty. Problem was solved, until today 08/10/2018.

Backup camera too bright for backiup at night while still needing to view side mirrors. It would be great to come up with a sliding "on screen" brightness control for immediate control over the backup camera on screen brightness. Way too bright for safety / still needing to view side mirrors.

While utilizing the high beam function of the projection lighting shake or rattle when traveling over bumps on the road causing a flickering affect of the lights. I have had the entire headlight assembly replaced and the defect is still present. I have driven two 2017 and one 2018 Silverado pickups and the defect was also present. This defect is very distracting during nighttime driving and poses a safety risk during normal vehicle operations.

The mylink backup camera does not allow dimming at night when backing the vehicle causing the mylink backup camera screen in the dash to go full brightness, thus blinding the driver from seeing the passenger mirror. This is a safety hazard that can cause an accident when backing the vehicle at night.
