I just wanted to let everyone know that's this is gonna be the 1st recall on this shitty Silverados. Mine is braking instantly while running!!! Barely had this truck for 1 month and I already regret it :( That parking brake turning on by itself was happening since the beginning.  I just went to another webpage of complaints on this pickups and it turns out same thing happened to another gentleman and turns out his TCCM was defective.  The definition apparently of that is the Transmission Module of these Silverados.... he had to go return his pickup and have that module replaced

I’m really sorry for your situation and it sucks that it’s costing you two new tires. However, as you said, it’s specifically called out in your owners manual. I guess it’s a lesson for everyone not t

Yep, probably correct. Being it's with the brakes and a safety issue, it now becomes a recall instead of a service bulletin.  Haven't had it happen on mine yet (thank goodness) and I'm 3 mos. in my RST.

mine does this also at times...the fan speed and radio volume also seems to have a mind of it's own!

Dump the truck fast, when all these issues get out, your value will be nothing. 

Why are you still here since you say you dumped your Chevy? Is it just to bash Chevy trucks? Go out and drive your perfect Raptor if you even bought one.               

Make sure you post any issues you are having with the Raptor on here, oh that's right we wont hear anything about that.

GM’s third-quarter vehicle sales volume dropped by 14.7 percent from the previous year, the company said. Sales fell across every region and every brand, with Cadillac seeing the smallest decline in sales among its marquee brands, 3.9 percent, from the previous year.

yes, just here to bash Chevy and help some of the people who made the same mistake I did. I should have never bought a brand that can’t out sell a fiat truck. So, go back to your cry room snow flakes.

Really. 

Snow flakes Chevy sad.

You are in that category because you are in the same boat it seems that bought a new series truck and then whine about it.

You owners of the new design 2019's are the test crowd.

Sorry but that's the truth IMO.

 

Nobody likes a smart a$$, especially one that rags on a product they own.

Dude really??? Have you been on the other truck forums especially RAM??? They are having many serious issues. All are for that fact. Glad I'm not having the problems other brands are. As for GM, my emergency brake doesn't come on, rear slider window doesn't leak, drivetrain doesn't clunk but, I hate it for those that have these problems and hope they get it sorted out.

 GM had a very late start on selling the 19's compared to other brands and was a contributing factor on 1st qtr. sales vs. RAM. Ford sells one truck, RAM sells one truck but GM sells two. Combine GM's Silverado/Sierra sales and that puts the goat where? Where it's always been.  Ford has out sold Silverado for many years (even though combining Silverado/Sierra trucks GM was the leader for the majority of those years) but doesn't make Ford the superior truck does it?  Is your Silverado a lemon?  If so, take a loss, trade it in on a goat then come back and cry us. Terrible bud...

I don’t disagree with you. The point is the early build trucks are a POS. GM should fix the junk instead of cover up the problems with software and de-sensitizing systems suck as park assist, lane keep assist, pedestrian alert etc...FYI, when you trade, the dealer, no matter the brand, gets the service record. They see all the BS going on. They had all 5 of my visits and why. In four months, it was in the should 7 days!  And for the record, I really liked the Silverado, it’s a great start but GM is NOT fixing the electrical problems nor the programming. 

I did sell it and bought a Raptor. All the systems work and of course all vehicles have there problems. Good luck, I’ll keep a tow rope ready for ya.

I have a 2019 LD and I always use my parking brake every time I park. I have noticed an issue where when I crank the truck my parking brake light on the dash is not illuminated. It always illuminates when I engage the parking brake, but probably 1/10 times when I crank up there is no brake light on dash. Because of this I drove a few miles the other day with it on and didn’t even get a warning chime!

 Parking brake comes in for 3 reasons, all legit I think.. 1. Your holding down there brake when you turn off the truck (keyless). 2. Your in hitch view mode and shift into park.  3. You shake the shit out of the truck.. not sure about the last one but once I shook the truck (that was parked and off)  aggressively and I heard the brakes engage..

 I just got my 2019 Crew RST in Novemeber.  My kids typically jump in the truck before my wife or I do.  3 times I was in the garage when it happened.  The kids opened the back doors to get in, closed the door.  I had to put something else in the back with them reopened the back door then closed it again.  Thats when I heard the parking brake actuator in-gauge. One time the truck was pulled in the garage, the other 2 times it was backed in so its not one door or the other.  truck was unlocked in the garage all three times.  

Just today, my wife called me when she was driving my truck and told me the same thing happened to her.  She was putting groceries in the back floor and she heard something go off. She first opened the back door on one side before opening the drivers door.  Upon getting in the truck, she noticed the E brake was in gauged.

That explains it, I use hitch view to see when I'm into the garage far enough. I've been trying to figure out why the brake engages every time I park in the garage.

Anyone know how to manually override the parking brake?

 

Had the system fail this weekend to the on position. Had to disconnect the battery to reset the system and get it working again.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That is a fair point, and I think an OBD-first proof is probably the right next step. I agree that the value is not the hardware box by itself. The marketable part would be the software: always-on capture, baseline learning, event reduction, system-specific reports, and alerts. Also agreed that if an OBD device is always plugged in and has local storage, it should not miss the event in the same way that a scanner plugged in after the fact would. The only thing I would not want to assume yet is that an ELM327-class device gives all the late-GM data needed at the rate needed. Standard OBD live data, DTCs, freeze frame, Mode 6, VIN, and calibration information are definitely the right starting point. GDS2 also proves that a lot of useful ECM data can be viewed through the DLC without needing a DTC first. The question I need to test is whether the data needed for a useful GM V8 event report is actually available through the DLC, and at a useful sample rate: - misfire counts / roughness by cylinder - AFM/DFM state - oil pressure and oil temperature - fuel trims - voltage / reset context - U-codes and communication events - calibration / software information - whether these are standard PIDs, enhanced DIDs, Mode 6 data, GDS2-only data, or not available So I think the right benchmark is: 1. Build the OBD-only version first. 2. Keep it plugged in and logging locally. 3. Compare it against GDS2 / freeze frame / HP Tuners or another higher-end logger. 4. Measure which parameters are available and at what update rate. 5. Only justify ECM-side hardware if it captures useful evidence the OBD version cannot. So you may be right: the consumer product might simply be an always-plugged-in OBD event recorder with much better reporting. A question for you: when you say ELM327 devices can already deliver all the data needed, do you mean generic OBD Mode 01 data only, or GM enhanced data as well? For a useful GM V8 report, would generic OBD data be enough, or would you expect the tool to include enhanced items like misfire by cylinder, AFM/DFM state, oil pressure/oil temp, U-codes, and calibration information?

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
