Service trailer brake warning system activating intermittently without a trailer attached. Dashboard message center displays "service trailer brake system" alarm chime activation sounds. Repair facility diagnostics indicate the wiring harness between the BCM-??s and brake system has a fault / defect issue. I was advised this is common issue with this vehicle and presents a severe safety concern with a braking system and require immediate repair for my safety. The repairs are not covered under a TSB or recall notice from Chevrolet.

Service trailer brake system and stalilitrak warning continually pops up due to faulty wiring

- Latham, NY, USA

Remote started my vehicle in the morning, made it about a mile down the road, and the center console started fire. Looks to be the wiring/wireless charger on top of the console. Zero warning lamps or warning labels. Safely made it to the side of the road after getting out of traffic, but inhaled quite a bit of white, bitter smoke.

The trailer brake system dings on the dash board constantly, causing the brakes to malfunction and studder which is causing an increased risk of for safety incidents to happen.

Rear defroster where power sliding window meets started smoking while defroster was in use. Reference TSB# n192265660 rear window defroster thermal events. This is a replica of that issue, but have thus far been told by GM corporate that vehicle is not eligible under the released customer satisfaction program.

"Trailer Brake System" (TBS) warning indicator malfunction. Out of nowhere the TBS warning message and chime started malfunctioning. The malfunction is irregular and often so frequent the vehicle is un-drivable. The rapid warning display and chime is very distracting and presents a very significant distraction resulting in unsafe operation of the vehicle. I have multiple videos of the malfunction, ranging from and occasional chime to a constant chime. Unfortunately they are too large to upload.

I have a 2016 Silverado which was purchased new, the vehicle has now 35K miles. Recently the radio display which contains the intelink and other adaptive controls began randomly going through multiple screens on my dashboard, and touch screen radio screen including digital speedometer turning off and going to random music stations, the radio flickering as if searching for different signals, and going through different screens, blue tooth, ac, radio volume going extremely loud, driver info screen going blank, etc... causing a horrible distraction, and will not turn off a search on the internet shows multiple GM vehicles for the years 2016-2020 with the same problem I have contacted local dealer who states car is not under warranty anymore. This is definitely a safety issue on this vehicle and I would like to report this to the NHTSI

Entered vehicle, inserted keys and drove approximately 300 ft to drop off mail. While sitting in the vehicle and the vehicle was in park, and running. I heard a very load pop and and observed left side window had shattered. This is the driver side rear window, left side looking from rear of vehicle. The window was bowed out slightly and some loose pieces of glass were observed. This occurred approximately 3 minutes after the initial start of the vehicle. No other damage observed. This vehicle had been previously subject to a recall regarding the powered rear window defroster circuit. The dealer corrected this recall on February 7, 2020.

2016 Chevrolet Silverado LT Crew Cab Standard Box A/C Condenser (GM Part Number 84802253) cracked at weld and failed at approximately 63,000 miles, resulting in refrigerant leaking to atmosphere and loss of cooling.

Vehicle entertainment center has intermittent issues with the hands free, bluetooth connection. The system reverts back to non hands-free operation or mutes the call randomly. The entertainment center also randomly scrolls, selects radio stations and changes modes when not in a call. Happens while vehicle is in motion at low and high speed, in all associated conditions. This distracts the driver and has the potential to result in a fatal accident. Other Chevy Silverado of various years exhibit the same issue as evidenced by a number of internet forum and you tube posts by owners. A date of occurrance is provided, but it's happened numerous times over the past two years.

The truck will cut engine at any speed, totally losing power to breaks, steering, odometers etc. It mostly comes back on after a few seconds and sends a code of many different kids (service park assist, stabiitrac, roll window down and back up, trailer brake assist etc) this is very dangerous and needs to be recalled. This could happen during a critical driving move and could end up deadly. Currently, there are 70,000 miles on this truck and out of standard warranty and will probably cost a lot to fix. (labor mostly) research shows that this is pretty common and very scary. GM even has a service bulletin out (18-na-161) showing that this is a common problem and is very dangerous, thus need to cover the recall right away.

Cold weather (25-30 degrees?) on 12/24, so remote started truck and began driving (rear defroster auto starts). Heard slight sizzle noise, but couldn't figure out what it was...then wife (riding in back) heard it get worse, then a little smoke, then rear-window on driver side popped/cracked/shattered (truck has a sliding rear window, so 3 sections). Didn't blow out, but is completely shattered. Taped it to keep pieces from blowing apart. Talked to dealer and GM customer care, and they advised of an open customer satisfaction program for this issue, but it only applies to vehicles in certain states (cold weather)...including mi, but I'm 1 hour South in northern in. #N192265660-01 is the program number (rear window defroster thermal events - us only _(Mar 25, 2020). The problem also seems to be more common in Canada where a full recall is in effect. At this point, however, GM customer care (case # 9-6442774509) says they can't do anything and referred me back to dealer...who I will assume will refer me back to cust care again. I'm waiting on their response. Makes no sense that they will reimburse only for vehicles in certain states. I'm in the same cold climate as Michigan and many of the other impacted states. Looking for reimbursement of costs to repair, but for now I'm waiting to make sure someone will pay for it. This is a known issue that GM is refusing to reimburse (even though they are clearly willing in many other states). Any suggestions?

Vehicle was stationary, in driveway of residence, running after being started with remote start. Temperature outside was about 35F. Front and rear window defrosters typically come on when the vehicle is remote started in the winter months. Rear window of truck has three separate panes, the two outer panes are stationary and the middle slides opens via a switch in the overhead console. All windows in vehicle were closed. I was standing beside the vehicle when there was a loud cracking sound and small pieces of the rear window pane behind the driver fell to the ground. The window continued to make a cracking sounds for several minutes after the initial sound. There is a slight smell of electrical wire burning inside the vehicle very close to the bottom left side of the damaged pane of glass. Despite the following information, GM claims that the VIN of the vehicle is not subject to the recall.

I turned on the rear defrost to the vehicle. Within about 30 seconds, I saw smoke rising from the center part of the rear window as if the defroster had started a fire. I immediately turned the rear defrost off and the smoke ceased. Within a mater of seconds, the right panel of the rear window popped very loudly as it shattered, presumably from the fire. I was driving on a rural road when this occurred. I do have a power rear window on the vehicle and there is a recall already in Canada for Chevrolet Silverado's of my model year with the rear power window having fires started by the rear defroster.

When driving, if I do something electrical, like applying the brakes or using my turn signal, the entire car electrical system shuts off for a second and sometimes jerks the steering wheel out of my hand. It usually restarts immediately on its own while driving. I've had it also while parked with just the radio on, that everything just died. Then it took a few tries before the truck engine turned over to try starting

Steering will jerk back and forth very sharply and dash information center goes blank when turning into parking spots. This has happened at speed with A/C and radio going blank.

The vehicle completely loses power for a split second. After this incident happens, the display says lower then raise the driver side window all the way. The ambient temp reading goes to 32 and displays warning possible freezing conditions. The problem seems to be coming from a bad ground cable.
