Vibration in the rest end. Had tires rotated and still a vibration. Complained to General Motors only to be told that it is within their specs. They know there is an issue with the 2015-2017 Silverado and nothing being done. Makes it uncomfortable to drive on long trips is at all speeds while driving and negotiating bends in the highway. Noticed when I purchase and drove off the lot purchased in November 2017 continued

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.

This vehicle, like many others of this same design, has had a vibration at highway speeds since the vehicle was purchase on 9-14-2017. It has been addressed by the dealer four times with the tires being the presumed issue. The vibration has continued even after different tires installed and recently the vibration caused the vehicle to begin to drift toward the edge of the roadway while travelling at 70 mph in a 70 mph speed zone in a curve that was not posted with a reduced suggested speed. The truck has currently been at the General Motors dealer in Delaware Ohio for eight days where they have verified the issue, have not been able to locate a cause and have notified General Motors for guidance. While researching this issue I have found that it appears to be a long term issue for this manufacturer that is not being addressed. Being a retired state trooper who has driven many many miles in his career, I feel this situation could cause a serious safety issue that could potentially cause a loss of control and contribute to injuries or worse to the vehicle occupants. Personnel at the dealership have confirmed to me that they have heard of this situation and that some trucks are absolutely perfect while others develop this continuing problem. This vibration begins at approximately 68 mph and continues to at least 76 mph and is felt through the seat, accelerator and steering wheel. I do have some of the "repair" documents but they are incomplete at this time.

When driving at night and shifting into reverse the tailgate camera activates on the dash display at full brightness effectively blinding the driver from seeing anything/any person outside the vehicle as he tries to back up. There is no way to disable or dim the touchscreen during reversing.

Vehicle radio display is too bright. Using the dimmer does still leaves the radio the brightest display inside the passenger compartment blinding the driver at night. The only option is to turn the display off which takes 5 separate inputs to the display control. Once the display is turned off any other input to the radio or heating/ac controls turns the display back on and requires another display input to turn the display off again.

Truck exhibits a rough idle after truck is driven and warm. Idle causes teh truck to shake and feels like it will die at stops. RPM drops below 300 RPM then goes back to 490 RPM. In addition the truck will start to shake and vibrate at highway speeds of 75-80 mph. GMC service performed tsb changing our engine mounts but that has not fixed the issue. This is a known issue on Silverado and no fix in site. Concerned with seat vibration this is a safety issue due to potential drive train part failure.

Dash cracking in pieces could cause pieces of plastic shards to become airborne when air bag is deployed causing injury and possible eye damage. The vehicle was stationary when I heard it pop after turning on defroster. It appears to be a common problem in Chevrolet / GM vehicles spanning many years.

There's a box under the steering column that can vibrate loose and fall by your feet while driving. It falls right beside the brake and makes it difficult to safely brake without it swinging around. It can be replaced but is capable of vibrating loose over and over.

My vehicle is a pickup with the Z71 off road package. I use it working on farm and pasture land which requires me to drive off road in tall grass and brush at times. I noticed, and it was called to attention, that grass and brush was collecting around the rear axle, drive line and exhaust system. I got under the vehicle and found two large plastic clamps around the axle housing that have a large V shaped opening facing the front of the pickup. The clamps are catching and holding grass and brush which then builds up as the vehicle travels. I consider this to be a safety issue which number one could cause a fire, cause damage and failure of the drive line and endangers my safety by having to crawl under the vehicle to remove the brush and grass. This problem started when the vehicle was new 6/25/17 to current.

Rear facing camera can not be dimmed. When backing at night, camera display is so bright you can't use your mirrors. You can not Focus on anything that may be along side of the vehicle. This could be dangerous to anyone who might be out of sight of the camera. I have read that older year vehicles have a camera display dim feature.

When accelerating from a stop truck hesitates to the point where you could get hit or you have to push pedal hard which makes vehicle jerk or spin tires, especially when wet pavements. Also will stutter and vibrate at higher speeds. Been told it's normal for this truck with its fuel saving [xxx] from 4-8 cylinder. Not safe at all.

When putting the vehicle into reverse for the purpose of backing up, the radio screen illuminates to a blinding level of brightness when the rear camera view is displayed. This is especially noticeable at night and impairs my ability to see out of my windows. There is no adjustment within the radio settings to fix this issue, and the rotating dial to the left of the exterior lighting knob will do nothing to dim the screen when in reverse. During normal operation (not in reverse), the screen is able to dim with the rotating dial whether parked or driving. I believe this is a software issue that if not resolved, could result in detrimental impacts to driving safety, especially at night. If Chevrolet/GM could implement an update that would allow a software update to put a "soft" button into the settings menu, I feel that overall visibility would be improved greatly and temporary night blindness would be a thing of the past. My vehicle is not the only type of GM vehicle affected with this issue.

I have been driving a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Z71 pick-up truck since February 2017. Since nearly day one, the vehicle has experienced vibration and wobble like shaking noticeable at normal highway speeds, becoming more noticeable above 60 mph. At certain instances the vehicle begins to experience a mild bouncing. The vehicle has been in to the dealership to repair the problem four times over the course of ownership (apx. Six months at the time of this submission) and approximately 10,000 driving miles and the issue still is ongoing. The dealer stated that they are unable to repair the problem. The dealership had called in a field engineer to help with the issue, twice, they as well, unable to repair the problem. The dealership has replaced numerous tires, road force balanced wheels and tires, replaced suspension bushings, steering gear box, steering bushings, unmounted the body from the chassis and unbolted the exhaust system, reassembling in a different pattern, removed caliper clips, and made other changes. The issue still exists. Following their attempt to repair the issue, the vehicle now makes a clunk noise when executing a tight turning radius and driving over a small bump (such as a driveway apron). When the shaking / vibration occurs, the vehicle feels unstable and feels as if there may be a loss of control.

I am requesting that dot NHTSA investigate the extreme wobble/vibration/shake on new 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The vehicle was purchased new and driven under 55 mph for the first 500 miles. After the first 500 miles and beginning to drive highway speeds, between 60 - 75+ miles per hour, a wobble/vibration/shake began to occur. When the wobble/vibration/shake begins the driver feels that control of the vehicle is being lost and the driver must decrease the speed, which is able to be accomplished with both releasing foot off of the accelerator or lightly breaking, in order to regain control. The vehicle has been to the dealer for front left wheel replacement due to the inability of original tire to be balanced, the vehicle has field force balancing 3 times, and the left front axle boot has been replaced. After several attempts to correct the wobble/vibration/shake, the vehicle now has ~10,000 miles, the wobble/vibration/shake continues to occur at highway speeds.

Bought the truck 16 Nov 16 in Idaho. Noticed at the end of Jan/early Feb '17 that paint chips/knicks were starting to appear all over the truck and in places where the only way you could see them was to the open a door (I.e. not even exposed to the road). After making numerous inquiries to local GM dealerships, all of whom said it was sand damage, I started doing research. Turns out, I'm not the only person with this issue on their trucks. It appears the issues with paint on GM (both GMC and Silverado) trucks started around mid to late model 2014 trucks and persists to this day (see attachments). Additionally, my local dealership here in reno, I have found out, has been lying to me; they told me they submitted two separate requests to GM for the truck to be repainted as they agreed with me (in-person and via phone) that something is wrong with the paint. It turns out, this is all a farce. The two requests they submitted stated, "customer has been advised to file a claim with their insurance as damage is caused due to sand damage. Customer insists dealership submit a claim to GM for warranty re-paint". whilst I'm paraphrasing here, I was livid to learn this was 'their behind my back kind of thing'. prior to learning about this shenanigan, I thought for a second that perhaps the dealerships could be correct, maybe it could be damage from driving. So, I took it to three separate repair facilities in the area and all of whom said the same thing, verbatim, "the clear coat is too hard, it's like glass. Factory defect". well, that confirmed it. Lastly, I have just recently contacted the dealership from which I bought the truck (Idaho). They advised me at 1352 on 23 May 17 to escalate this issue beyond GM. And that's why I'm filing this complaint folks. Do your homework before buying any new GM product.
