This morning I was driving to work with the heat on full, heated seats on, and the rear defrost. I smelt smoke coming from somewhere in the car. I looked in my back seat to see smoke coming from the bottom of my rear window. I did not operate my rear power window at any point today. I stopped and looked closer to see something electrical melting behind the rear passenger head rest (see picture). Suddenly there was a loud pop, it was the rear window breaking. The whole thing did not break, just the 1/3 on the driver side. I believe this was the first time I have I used the rear defrost. I'm very happy nothing caught on fire and my back seat was empty. When I drove home there were no problems, the rear defrost was off but now I have a shattered. I did not have anything in my truck bed that could have broken the window, I believe the heat from the electrical issue caused it to shatter. I have seen that Canada has recalled this truck for this issue. I don't know who is responsible and who is going to fix this problem.

I was driving the vehicle and the power steering went out temporarily at an intersection when attempting to make a left turn. The issue went away but then a month later the same issue happened again when turning right into a driveway except this time the truck completely stalled and went powerless. The truck was taken to a local dealership and they were unable to gurantee a fix but stated they disconnected and cleaned a few grounds before reattaching them. GM customer service declined to assist at all with covering the shop charges. The truck that is 3 years old and has less than 30K miles.

The mylink radio system in my 2017 silverrado has developed a mnid of its own. It doesn't matter if the truck is sitting still or moving. Turn radio on and in just a few seconds the radio starts the browse function. It starts scrolling all the stations and on my little screen above my steering wheel goes to audio function disabling my speed readout. Also effects the navigation screen where the map jumps all over the place and displays locations off and on. On the home screen the apps just keep scrolling by never stopping. It is like the system has a ghost in it. It is very distracting while driving as the screen keeps changing. Now I am leaving the radio off. Can not use my navigation which I pay for every year, also sometimes the touch screen will not respond. My truck has 50,800 miles on it. I purchased the truck on October 31 2017. I have researched on the internet and found this problem happens quite frequently with the mylink radio system in other Chevy products. Also discovered that the approx. Cost to replace or fix is approx. $1000. I first noticed this problem apprx 2.5 months a nd has steadliy gotten worse. Am afraid the the hmi module may go out and render my truck useless

While operating the moving vehicle the touchscreen activates by itself causing radio to turn on or off, both city and highway operation. This draws attention away from the road and to the electronic touch panel resulting in a possible distracted driving situation. The system also activates or deactivates other features on the display.

Transmission shifts hard into gear when slowing down and extremely hard when towing 2,000lb empty trailer, currently at dealership to have new torque converter and pump installed. Dealership stated no metal shavings in transmission they believe. When accelerating engine rpms increase while vehicle speed decreases. Stereo constantly disconnects from wifi when streaming music. Wifi will continue to work for other devices. Voice commands work 80%ish of the time.

As I was driving on a city street high speed limit all the sudden all the warning dash lights came on although the engine is running, I didn't understand it tried to slow down and had to apply a lot of pressure to the brake pedal. I did not understand it. When I stopped the lights went out. I turned off the vehicle with the key and started it again. A couple days later I remotely started my vehicle but when I got in and turn the key on the lights did not go off immediately as they normally do.

It happens intermittently.. as I slow up to a speed under 10 miles an hour, as soon as I turn the steering wheel, the vehicle will lose power, either turning off and on fast the dash will lose power but the motor will still be running... sherry this happens, the steering feels like theres resistance turning and the only way to fix it is to turn off the vehicle and let it sit. Other times it will happen and the vehicle will lose total power, almost like I removed the key but the vehicle will still be rolling. The steering wheel has locked twice all while the vehicle is still in motion as well and brakes are non functioning. Its happened several times going through intersections, pulling into my driveway, and U turns. It never happens in reverse. Ill never own a Chevy again...

A rough clunk noise occurs when trying to stop, and car actually revs to accelerate speed when applying breaking and trying to stop. (in. Motion) this is a dangerous issue. Transmission does not appear to smoothly enter into subsequent gears. A jerk occurs in between shifting of gears. (moving) I have been completely stopped on a flat street, and relax my foot off the break, and the car wants to leap jump forward. This is not safe. (stopped) there are several reports of this issue found in online forums from other owners with the same 2017 Chevy Silverado. Just purchased vehicle in November.

The ambient temperature sensor doesn't work. It does not read the correct temperature outside. This impacts the A/C, which does not work properly when the sensor is not reading the correct external temperature. The fairfield Chevrolet service department refuses to acknowledge the issue, let alone fix or replace the sensor. I use my truck on ranches and logging properties where it is literally impossible for me to drive over 20mph for 5 minutes. And when it is 105 degrees and the A/C thinks it is only 65 outside, the A/C does not engage. The service department keeps telling me that they cannot replicate the problem so it must not be real. This is the equivalent of calling me a liar in order to avoid honoring the warranty.

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.

While I was driving on the highway, approximately 55mph; the check engine light came on; smelled like plastic burning at the same time; I was able to stop on exit ramp as thick black smoke filled the inside. Good samaritans helped me get out as flames were ignited under the hood. Several like MINIexplosions accompanied the flames.

Vehicle was parked in a shopping center parking lot after being driven for approximately 15 minutes. When returning to the vehicle 10 minutes after parking it, the vehicle starter was attempting to start the vehicle despite no remote start or onstar app being activated to start the vehicle. The vehicle continued to attempt to crank and start, even after I unlocked the vehicle with my key fob, inserted the key into the ignition, and attempting to start the vehicle and turn off the key. The vehicle continued to attempt to crank and start and I smelled a strong electrical burning smell. I then saw blue/greyish smoke coming from the passenger side where the hood meets the windshield. I then gathered my belongings from the truck and watched from a safe distance. After the smoke, the truck no longer attempted to crank or start itself and the smoke was gone within 5 minutes, although there were small instances of smoke over the next 15 minutes. The truck was put on a flatbed tow truck for further diagnosis at the local Chevrolet dealership. Initial diagnosis indicated that the "starter had consumed itself" and was the cause of the smoke I saw, but no further information was available. It was quite scary to have a truck attempt to start itself with a small electrical short/fire as a result without a key being needed.
