My 2023 Silverado High Country ACC is flakey also.......

It will sense a car in the next lane over and slam on the brakes when I start to approach it.....had it do the same with a car entering the freeway on the acceleration lane and putting myself and vehicle behind me in a panic situation that was completely unnecessary.  

 

It's a hazard in itself IMHO........talk about getting rear ended when the brakes are slammed on for no reason.

Turn it off.......drive alert and use your own senses, not some computer and camera.  

 

Perhaps the dealer needs to re-align the camera that is in front of the rearview mirror.

It’s happening on both sides of the vehicle explain that???

not sure how that could be an alignment issue….

Might not be the adaptive cruise, but the truck is seeing something that is causing emergency braking to kick in or has a faulty camera or sensor sending a signal so the truck 'thinks' something is there. 

 

All '23 1500 pickups have UHY and UKJ

......or it's a piss poor design and/or implementation. Try mentioning it to the dealer and they say it works just fine. 

During a test drive of a different 2023 High Country than I purchased, with the sales guy in the vehicle, it did the same thing. Excuses from the salesman abound. 

 

Turn it off and problem fixed.....not worth the hassle or safety issues it presents.

My brand new 2023 Chevy Colorado ZR2 has been randomly braking, slaming from 75 down to 40. Absolutely nothing around. Clear day, straight roads. I've had it in 4 times, 2 different dealerships. Their solution...they disabled the feature. A safety feature option I paid for. I contacted GM corporate, they contacted the dealerships who said the feature works as it should. If it's working as it should, why disable it?

Hello, SHERYL SKRZYPCZAK. Please know our team is only an email away if you are ever in need of assistance. Thank you and have a great day.

This has happened several times on my fathers 2023 Chev Silverado.

Solution: Dealer says turn off adaptive cruise control. 

Asked about a refund - they offered a free oil change.

Someone is going to be killed due to this problem...I suppose that is when they will be force to do something about it.

I have a 2021 Silverado High Country. Great truck. But the ACC has tweaked on me as well but only when going uphill. It's as if the computer is interpreting the road as captured by the camera as a collision threat and then braked very hard causing me to have to turn the cruise off as quickly as possible to regain speed and actually avoid someone from colliding with me from behind! Then...the ACC won't rearm for several minutes thereafter for some reason. It's frustrating since I do like the feature even though I don't rely on it to text or otherwise not stay alert. There are too many "non-alert" drivers out there already to do that! It doesn't sound like there is a universal diagnosis of the problem or fix either. Someone mentioned using cruise control without ACC. I guess I didn't realize that was possible on a vehicle equipped with ACC. How exactly is that done? Thanks!

When it activates, the text box that comes up should indicate which mode it is in, and how to change modes. 

 

It's also in the owners manual

(this is from a '23 manual, but it operated the same on my '21)

      Replacing 2.7L on 2021 Silverado with 2023 2.7L

      I’m definitely interested to hear the end result here.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      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.

      OCI, not when but why?

      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.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      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.
