Just started having this same issue in my 2021 RST (5.3l V8) bought in March of this year. Started running rough and misfiring yesterday on the way home. Could hear the knocking in the engine (thinking it was a stuck lifter or valve issue). The knock/tick increases in speed as the RPMs go up (and coasting with no gas pedal input stops the ticking). Parked it in front of the garage and checked the oil. It's due for a change (14% oil life left at about 6,500 miles, so first change). Oil is dirty and dark, as expected, but nothing that should be super sludgy. Turned it on today and engine is still running rough. After idling for about a minute, I got the Service Parking Brake and Service ESC messages with the traction control light. Calling dealer tomorrow.

Mine has done this several times. Service ESC, Parking brake, and traction control I think. Then the transmission shifts funny. If I turn the truck off and on again it will go away. Don’t have much faith in my local dealer so I haven’t brought it in yet. 

This is exactly what just happened to my truck (2020 trail boss) took it to dealership they said they will look at it on Monday, hope the problem can be found and fixed. Downshifts horribly 12000 miles

Following. Just had to tow my 2021 Sierra 1500 SLT with the 6.2 into the dealer as well. Stopped and filled up with fuel and on the way to work it started to misfire and shifting hard. Stopped at another gas station along the way and parked it and had a buddy that I work with come pick me up. Returned after work to haul it into the dealer and went to start it to put it on my buddy's trailer, it started running real rough with the check engine light, service parking brake light, and check ECS light all on. Started second guessing the fuel and everything but had my receipt that said I had got premium fuel and not diesel. Truck has 10k miles on it and looks terrible being pulled into a dealer by a Ford.....LMAO

Welcome to the site.

 

By your description of how the engine is running, my guess would be an internal failure, lifters, bent/broken push rod as possibilities.

Really don't even want to read all of these different threads on the same lifter issue anymore at all.  So disappointed in this truck now.  Should have stayed in my old one.

I got one of these. and it works great. It turns off the cylinder deactivation. https://www.edgeproducts.com/products/in-line_chips_and_modules/pulsar/pulsar_lt/parts/22451                                                                                                                               The truck runs better, no more auto shut off and I think I picked up some mileage.

This is exactly what just happened to me today. I have already had injector #4 replaced because of this 3 weeks ago.

This sounds like a common problem and doesn’t sound like they have a fix for it. Im starting to get worried.

My 2021 Sierra 1500 AT4 with 24000 miles, today the service ESC and parking brake screen came on. Cab started shaking if I drove above 45 mph. Steering screen on truck said to be careful.  I was pulling a trailer at the time. Was wondering if the light hook up from trailer to truck might have messed with trucks computer system.

I have a 2020 Silverado LTZ 6.2L with 4500 miles and after slowing down and accelerating again I noticed it was running very rough and seemed to be missing.  The Service ESC first came up and then the check engine light came on.  Shorty after the wrench and parking brake light came on, and I also noticed the whole time the traction control ight was illuminated.  Then the error message went to service parking brake.  This is some BS.  Will update when and if I get a resolution.

    • I’m definitely interested to hear the end result here. 
    • My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.
    • Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken. 
    • Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
