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.

my 2021 silverado 1500LT 5.3L has the same symptoms, this started about a week ago, service parking brake, rough idle, engine light and anti-traction disabled. i find if i turn it off and then restart it goes away but yesterday i got a message from onstar diagnostics that it detected a emissions problem and i need to take it in for service within 7 days.

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.

So, I having the same issue today(3/29/22). When going to doctor appointment!  Tried to get help from GMC service department, which was very little other than getting a appointment to get it checked & they would have to have it for 2-days & no loaner!

    • www.enginelabs.com/news/what-i-learned-today-bearing-clearances-vs-oil-viscosities/     www.enginelabs.com/news/oil-viscosity-can-the-numbers-be-misleading/ The Big Lie… Coming full circle to the reason Lake discusses the Porsche engines in particular. Based on the 2000 samples in the SPEEDiagnostix database, increasing the oil viscosity in these engines, even those run on the track, showed no significant difference in results.   The smoking gun was in the oil chemistry. That is where the data shows higher instances of more wear. Molybdenum was the key; the higher the amount, the less the wear. Speed postulates that higher viscosity oils have more thickeners to artificially inflate their viscosity numbers. These thickeners lose viscosity under shear, and the result is that not all oils of the same viscosity have the same shear stability.   Having enough viscosity is the most important characteristic, but according to Speed, once that required viscosity level is reached, additive chemistry matters more than additional viscosity. Speed also states, oil pressure problems on the racetrack aren’t a viscosity problem; it’s an oiling system problem. Running a thicker oil is just a band-aid for an underlying oiling system problem.
    • Can it still be Assembled II?   Viscosity on the decline by various means. Heat on the rise making that worse. Engine RPM in the tank. Smaller motors with more boost trying to emulate an electric motor. Full torque, zero rpm. Then we will triple the OCI. Argh.    But wait....there is more. LSPI has pushed a shift from Ca to Mg and as that cost more PLUS the run to lower sulfur compounds the TBN is moving in the wrong direction for the increased OCI's demanded.    That not being enough to placate a demand for a parameter they can't measure the other sulfur bearing compounds are also under attack. That would be zinc and phosphorus sulfonate compounds. To some degree those are being replaced with boron esters and others, i.e. titanium ect. All of which have shorter service lives. And there there is the "Secrete Sauce" marketing for AW adds that 'Can't be detected by UOA's" but trust me because I (the blenders) never ever lie.    Spoiler alert; ALL additives are sacrificial! Smaller amounts of the old blended with less robust versions of the new do not equal longer service lives. So what are the blenders recommending? Wait for it.......   MOVING THE GOAL POSTS! OMG      Let's declare the long standing TAN/TBN crossover irrelevant and tell people that soot is a great 'graphite' based lubricant which can aid tribo films. Wait, what? Let's declare that the standards used for oxidation and nitration were to conservative and can be expanded. Let's tell them that because GDI fuel dilution, although being a VISCOSITY KILLER and an acid generator is actually okay because we have better base oils that limit viscosity failure limits. (Said knowing this is measured in fractions of a centipoise and in bases not commonly used in shelf oils)   Lying from the heart is not just the new normal but we have a public, a very young public, that is so ignorant of the facts and so sure of their "RESEARCH" into AI driven models base in regurgitated  instead of scientific research based unvarnished, peer reviewed FACTS that the incoming guard is loosing their grip on reality and the OEM's are tickled pink while the blends bend the knee.    You have an ever limited set of tools to work with. And sooner or later those will be taken from you as the API and the EPA strangle the last remaining fluids from the system. What you have left is your wits. If you care to use them.    At some point in the very near future it will not longer be possible to do "What is best for the machine", and be replaced with "The best you have access too". You WILL be rewarded with half the life and twice the cost. That isn't that hard to predict.         
    • I trust you saw the other comment where he knew what he was talking about !. Yes, these darned newer vehicles with all their so smart they are stupid technology, goes and drains the battery down. As you might see my other comment, I installed a Noco 5 battery tender under the hood and at this point still have the cord routed so I have to lift the hood and then plug it in but am typically parked in a garage or a shed so its not risking the engine hood in the wind. That way I am assured or hopefully so of not finding I have a battery drawn down and can't even start the truck and that also damages the battery to draw it down too far. 
    • I guess no surprise my guesses were wrong !, at least now I know if I ever happen to see it grayed out in my own truck as to what is going on.    I never happened to catch my truck with it grayed out, it seemed every time I would test to see if there was an update it never found anything and yet more than once I would check to see if there was an update and there was nothing, then a day later or even that same morning I would drive to town and after more than one engine shut down in town as I did my errands it would pop up that there is an update now ready to install and the only place I have a connection to the internet is at home by wifi so its not as if it grabbed the download while driving. I don't trust these new vehicles due to all the crap they can decide to do while sitting for some days not running and run the battery down so most of the time if I know the truck will sit for a few days I plug in the battery tender I have mounted under the hood and so the only time the truck must have downloaded software was when it was sitting in the garage where the signal is awful but I have that tender plugged in and somehow it managed to download it. I honestly detest all this crap, way to easy to leave a person stranded.    Since I don't trust any of it I don't do the install of the already downloaded software until I get home and sometimes have even sat in the truck to watch what its doing as its going through the process to its conclusion as its not like it is set up that it will tell you the next time you fire up the engine that the update that was initialed actually installed or installed properly. Yes I can go into the updates and see the list. After I go through the install where I feel its safe to do so in case it breaks down as a result, I will plug in the battery tender after the fact to recharge as I don't know how much power its taking just to do the install and that can take a while for it to install. 
    • Thanks for the reply. All settings were correct and the engine was off, as it was supposed to be. It turned out to be something simple. I took a drive for about an hour. I must have had a low battery without knowing it. The voltage gauge on the display looked ok. At the end of my drive, I shut off the engine and the update prompt came up and it updated normally. It’s ironic because one of the features of the update is a reduction of battery drain.
