at least once a month gives a false trailer braking error and the truck brakes itself, dash dies, driver loses control over the vehicle. It is a risk of crashing or being hit because the truck stops itself in the middle of driving without brake lights coming on to alert other drivers. No way to overcome this - can't hit the gas pedal, etc. It seems to think that you are hauling a trailer and it thinks the trailer is swaying... problem is this truck has never towed a trailer even one time... it's completely false. But also very dangerous.

Imy 2013 Chevy Z21 has started leaking sround the light on top and back light on the hood of the truck. I noticed wet spot on back part of headliner and some mold in the area. I have found where other people have said the same problem on their 2013 Silverado, I can't found any recalls on this. I feel there needs tio be a recall from what I have found about this.. my 3 year old son rides in the backseat right where the leak is.and I'm afraid it could make him sick
