I have had an ongoing problem with the electrical system in my truck. first time it happened i was leaving my house and as soon as i got a few houses down the road my door locks started unlocking and locking themselves over and over and the speedometer gauge was all over the place along with the rpm gauge and the road up would turn off and on and the brakes would lock up and then release and it did this until i was able to pull over and turn the truck off. once the truck was off it wouldn't start again. i had taken the battery out to be tested and it was fine. the alternator was fine and as far as i could see the negative and positive cables from the battery were clean too. i've traced the ground and it doesn't appear to be in bad shape either. well after i was able to get it back to my house it sat for a few days and after a couple days it randomly started back up. took it to the local chevy dealership and they said there is no problem everything is good and they couldn't recreate the problem. they said it could be the aftermarket head unit. well once i got my truck back the head unit no longer works or gets power? well now a month later same problem and the truck is totally dead but battery and etc is fine.

Tl* the contact owns a 2011 chevrolet silverado 1500. while driving approximately 40 mph, the engine began to emit a knocking noise and the engine traction warning indicator illuminated. also, the vehicle took a longer amount of time than usual to stop when the brake pedal was depressed. the contact took the vehicle to a certified mechanic who diagnosed that the number one and number 7 spark plugs were burned out and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired, but the failure recently recurred. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case (reference number: 8/2905223479). the approximate failure mileage was 62,765.
My traction control light and abs light came on and the messages to service both of these systems are in my information center. my brakes are now dragging the rotors due to this problem. this is a major safety concern and a recall needs to be implemented to correct this issue. this started while driving down the highway.
While leaving our house to go to work the rear differential signal/ anti skid dashboard came on and the truck refused to go. it had not power. we had to replace the sensor. after that the stabilitrak and the anti skid and the abs light keeps coming on taking away my anti lock brakes and making my car unsafe to drive. i also haul my horse so it is too dangerous to move my horse anywhere when this service light keeps coming on. it has not come on while hauling anything. it comes on randomly with absolutely no weight in or on the truck. this has happened 3 more times within the last month.
My problem started around october 25, 2014, a week before i took it to the dealership.. the back brakes started to chatter when i applied the brakes. it was coming from the back brakes not the front.. the dealership told me the inspection showed the lr wheel cylinder leaking heavily and contamination shoes. rr also seeping. nec to replace rear wheel cylinders and bleed system. replaced rear shoes and cleaned affected areas. resurfaced drums and reassembled. i paid $514.74 for this, and with a reward card, i got $15.00 off, bringing the total to $499.74. i talked to the service mgr. from hamilton chevrolet on 11/7/14, and he said he would see if he could get me a refund for half of the charge, and should get the check from gm in about two wks. i feel that this is a gm problem, and with only 35, 574 miles on my truck this should not have happened. i am a 73 yr. old retire, and having to pay for this repair really set me back. i have owned many gm vehicles, and have never had any problems. i take care of my vehicles, and make sure they are serviced regularly. i would appreciate it if you could look into this, and get back to me. thank you. *tr

I was driving and was pulling into a parking spot and the vehicle accelerated instead of slowing down and coming to a stop causing it to collide with the brick building i do not what the truck speeded up to but both of the airbags went off and i missed a little 5 year old girl by about 2 inches. *tr
