| Dec 2025 | ENGINE | Took 2025 Silverado with a 6.2L engine to get oil changed and tire rotation done. Upon completion drove out of dealership and notice a weird noise coming from engine, then kind of disappeared. Drove home. Wife took car for gym then suppose to go to work. She called stating engine sounded really bad, like a lot of metal and metal screeching. Went to dealership, explained and they towed truck to service department to be looked at on 12/22/2025. Safety to others would have been detrimental if the vehicle had seized on the highway. The dealer person who sent for the tow was not the service manager but when we arrived he heard what the vehicle sounded like. No check engine lights or any warnings on. Hope to have results on Monday. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | At random times when you start the vehicle there is no sound. No sound from the turn signals, radio, emergency flashers. Apple Car Play. You have to restart the vehicle to have it reset. You always do not know there is no sound until you have started to drive and go to use the radio of notice that the turn signal is not working. I did not realize that my left hand turn signal did not turn off and at a traffic light I was going straight and a car turn in front of me because they assumed I was making a left hand turn. There was not an accident because they were able to stop. I have had it back to the dealership a number of times. They reset the system. Said it needed a global reset. Even after the reset it still is doing this. Happens more in cold weather. I have recording that are date showing no sound. I have multiple videos but I am unable to upload due to size. I was able to share them with the service technician at Gentilini Cherolet. 500 John S. Penn Blvd. Woodbine, NJ 08270. Phone Number 609-459-0014. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where the failure was acknowledged, but the contact was informed that the remedy to correct the failure was not yet available. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 75. | Crash: No Fire: No | 75 |
| Dec 2025 | ENGINE | I was driving down the highway with my children to see a movie when my trucks check engine light came on and started surging and losing power we were struggling to drive 5 mph on the shoulder of the road to make it to the closest exit ramp for a safe place to stop. We were able to make it to the ramp but couldn't exit completely because it was an up hill grade. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for a complete engine replacement.

| Dec 2025 | ENGINE | Purchased new and after 3 weeks (about 600 miles) I was on highway between 60-70 MPH truck started to shutter like it was losing power and would not accelerate. I complained to the sales person and he stated it ran a little rough when purchased first day - I was told it just needs to warm up. Took truck to dealer and they determined at this time it was a misfire and lifter bank issue. There seems to be an issue widespread - I am not comfortable with car and if on the highway i am not able to accelerate properly or becomes unreliable at the time to accelerate I am worried about safety. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Oct 2025 | ENGINE | I purchased the vehicle on 8-23-25. On 10-23-25 while driving my daughter to school I received a message on the dashboard that said "reduced acceleration mode drive with care." I immediately drove to the dealership. After a few hours I was told by the dealer that the diagnostic code of PO6DD "Engine Oil Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Stuck Off" had been recorded and a full engine replacement will be required. The vehicle has 3307 miles on it and has been at the dealership since. Engines for this vehicle are on back order and there is no timeframe available on when a new engine will be available. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Oct 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | While driving down IH10 in Boerne, TX on Oct 15, 2025, I saw smoke coming into the vehicle from the A/C vents. I immediately pulled over and put it in park, opened the driver door to get out and turned back to my truck to flames shooting out between the rear passenger side of the cab and in front on the bed of the truck. I had a UHaul trailer in tow and immediately unhooked it to get it away from the truck. I returned to my truck to retrieve my phone and proceeded to watch in desbelief as my truck and belongings went up in flames. It was fully engulfed within 30 seconds with no warnings from inside the truck while driving. Took firefighters over two hours to distinguish the flames fully. | Crash: No Fire: Yes | Unknown |
| Sep 2025 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | The glass on the driver's side mirror fluctuates when driving at speeds above approximately 35 MPH. It gets more intense the faster the vehicle travels. It's very distracting and also causes the mirror to go out of adjustment. I have had the mirror assembly changed 2 times by the dealer I'm still having the same issue. I filed a complaint with GM. After I filed a complaint the dealer installed ballast on the back side of the glass for counter balance per GM Engineers. That still did not fix the problem. I feel this is a design issue with the mirror. I am not the only owner with this issue. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Sep 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | The vehicle was a service loaner provided to me but it was factory new with the sticker still on the window. The dealer told me they would still sell the vehicle as new. When I started it, I had a display screen that indicated it was in a Demo mode. Taking it out of Demo mode would have required me to confirm that I had purchased the vehicle. The volume control and power control for the audio were not working at all. The volume was probably at 30% where I could hear but not clearly and also just loud enough that I couldn't hear sounds outside the vehicle well. This condition was not affected by the audio source. I could no change the volume in Bluetooth, AM, FM, XM, or Phone modes. I also could not turn off or mute the audio by pressing the Power button. There was a responding fire truck behind me on the road and I went to turn off the audio to hear it clearly and I was not able to. I took a video of this condition happening multiple times as photographs don't help to demonstrate much. I did notify the dealer by sending the Service Manager a text message with the video and said he would notate the condition. This persisted through multiple days and multiple restarts. After approx. 4-5 days, the expected functionality returned with no action or updates that I am aware of. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Sep 2025 | ENGINE | At 5,750 mi. the 6.2 gas engine seized due to connecting rod bearings. The dealer replaced the engine, cooling system and oil cooling system under warranty with a similar engine. I am of the opinion that it could have been at least partly due to the low viscosity motor oil that the manufacturer insists upon to maintain the factory warranty, 0-W20 synthetic, along with a poorly engineered fuel management system. Also, once the vehicle was stopped and put into park, the electronically controlled transmission refused to change gears, to be put into neutral, in order to be pushed out of traffic and on to a tow vehicle, it had to be dragged. The vehicle is extremely unreliable and a danger to the public. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE | On the evening of August 27, 25, when exiting the highway ramp, the vehicle's engine suddenly stopped and stalled, the gear automatically shifted to neutral, and the hazard lights could not be turned on. After about 2 minutes, it restarted normally and turned on the hazard lights. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the instrument cluster displayed a black screen and seized. The contact stated that occasionally the instrument cluster failed to activate. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with instrument cluster failure. The contact was informed that the instrument cluster needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was informed that the parts were not available to repair the instrument cluster. The contact referenced an undisclosed recall; however, the VIN was not under recall. The contact stated that the failure started immediately after the vehicle was purchased. The contact had been waiting for delivery of the parts for two months. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The contact stated that the manufacturer had been contacted more than twenty times. The failure mileage was approximately 2. | Crash: No Fire: No | 2 |
| Jul 2025 | POWER TRAIN | Transmission would not engage reverse gear. Then forward drive gears hard shift and surging. Truck delivered to dealer, inspection revealed a bad valve body. Parts availability unknown. No warning lights or caution lights. Just broke in a parking garage in Aspen Co. I live in south Texas. Truck and travel trailer in Colorado. Truck has 16000 miles. Had this failed two days before we would have been on pikes peak mountain. And the danger of transmission failure going up or down the mountain would have been very dangerous. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | ENGINE | My 2025 Chevy Silverado ZR2 has experienced the same dangerous system failure five times. While driving, every warning light on the dash activates, I lose power steering, and the vehicle completely shuts down and won’t restart. This creates an extreme safety risk — the first failure happened on a local road, but most recently, it occurred while my family was driving out of state during a holiday. The truck has now been out of service for over 50 cumulative days across these repeated incidents. GM has accepted a Lemon Law claim but has not resolved it, leaving me without a vehicle and no clear path forward. These systemic failures present serious risks to me, my family, and other drivers. The latest failure occurred in July 2025, and the vehicle remains at Bill Cramer Chevrolet in Panama City Beach, FL with no resolution. I am still making loan payments and paying for transportation out-of-pocket, without any support from the manufacturer. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | ENGINE | when coming to a stop, the truck idols high before slowly going down. Seems unsafe as if is not wanting to stop. I am also hearing a chirping coming from under the hood. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2025 | TIRES | Tread on tire chunked, exposing belts. Tires have <12,000 miles on set. OE installed. Bridgestone Alenza A/S 02 115S 275/60R20 | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2025 | POWER TRAIN | My 2025 Certified Pre-owned, 10 day old truck with approx. 6200 miles, was parked and I was unable to shift into reverse (as if in neutral). I put the truck in drive and entered the highway. About half a mile later, multiple warning lights appeared and the truck slowed, unable to shift out of gear. Luckily, there was a dealership a few miles away so I drove the truck there slowly and on the shoulder as much as possible. Upon inspection at the dealership, they told me that the valve body needed to be replaced. After the repair, which only took a few days, the dealership was test-driving the truck when the powertrain completely seized. They attempted to restart the truck but burned out the starter and fuse block which was also replaced. After a GM engineer gave the mechanics permission, they dropped the transmission to find that it was completely seized and had also seized the engine, though the engine was reportedly not damaged. The entire transmission was replaced and the truck was returned to me with about a month of downtime. This was a clear safety issue as the truck stopped working while on a highway. Luckily, I was in a heavily populated area where help was available. The transmission was returned to GM for further inspection and the repair was fully covered under warranty. Prior to the incident, there were no warning lights/messages, but only appeared after the issue. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
