Same thing happened to me, 2019 Silverado LT (Hecho en México) with 5000 miles, after the recall fix for erroneous brake pad wear reading.  Display said Trailer brake failure, do not exceed 62 MPH.  I wasn't trailering, but when I went down my driveway, found I had no power assist and ended up on my neighbor's lawn.  Got it back up the driveway, had a variety of messages including Service ESC.  Next morning all messages had cleared, made appt with dealer, who told me there are no recalls.

Dont do the recalls! Tell them you want to wait until they sort out the issues with those updates.

Taking advice not to get the recalls, been waiting for a few weeks for them to get sorted out and they still can't get them right.  I've had such bad luck with this truck that I wouldn't be all that m

Folks-  Just some words of advice for those of you who are going thru this but have not yet visited your dealership.  9 times out of 10 your dealership is not going to have any clue about this issue a

Day 3 of PIT5728B being done to my truck after the initial brake recall and app/remote starts caused it to have all the warnings and diminished braking.

 

So far so good, my dealer has been amazing I was in a loaner a month while this was being figured out. 

 

I recommend everyone with the issue bring the TSB to their dealer's attention

I had no brake problems with my HC and all the software updates are completed including PIT5728B and I have started the vehicle via Remote Start App the last 3 days with no problem.

Are you saying Onstar cannot perform a Diagnostics report on your vehicle [IE the report you can get once a month] or Onstar cannot tell you what the error code is if one exists? [These two operations should be the same thing but....]

I spoke to a Detroit Free Press reporter for a while about this today. GM is finally admitting their December brake update/recall is causing brake problems for owners. I believe she will have something out this week.

This is insane!!! Right after the recall is completed the bs starts. Same error code P25A2 on my 2019 Sierra Denali 6.2 this is definitely not a good look GMC.

I was interviewed for a story on this, coming out in the next day or so. GM is supposedly going to issue a new recall for all the 2019 to correct this. In the meantime we're all R&D dummies for GM.

Awesome article. 
I really appreciate all you did!!!
so far mine is good. 
I hv driven GM vehicles for 15 years and I do not want to change.  But, I have to have brakes & steering. They need to test the recall software updates On their test vehicles first. I pay attention to all updates now. 
 

thank u again for having the knowledge and courage to take this on!

      2015 Sierra Denali L86 cyl 5 misfire at idle

      By Gkistler · Posted

      Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions?

      Pulsating Noise 4Cyl Mode

      By zibzer2 · Posted

      2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.

      He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
