2021 Chevrolet Silverado HD owner complaints

Starting smelling gas inside of the cab, at first thought it was non-issue, but the smell persisted. Several days passed, and when I went to warm up my truck in the morning smelled a strong gas odor, and when I looked under the engine - there was a pool of gas, and gas was leaking. Took it in to the dealership (thinking it was a simple loose filter line) but they now say that it is more than that. Not sure if this has been a re-occurring issue with these new trucks, but it could have been a very dangerous situation.

The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500.

It's a known issue that 2020 and 2021 Chevy Silverados have a malfunction in the tailgate where it automatically opens while driving, opening the driver-side door, or even locking and unlocking the vehicle.

We believe that it is the park sensor in the column . When you place the truck into park, the screen displays the words shift to park period and the dinger.Inside the truck continues to ding for a long time, even with opening and closing the door ... The truck is actually in park, so it does not move.But the display says it's not.And apparently it is not registering because it keeps dinging

The contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500.

Non stopbbreak noise. No matter what you do, what is or isn't added, how clean they are, they constantly squeak and loud! Dealers won't help. Tell you to get on the brakes hard. That helps for a few minutes! Over 50k fix the brakes!!!

Took truck to dealer with concern of higher than normal braking force needed. Couldn’t verify concern. Looked today under the steering column and the brake booster is leaking fluid inside the cabin of the truck when the brake pedal goes through the firewall. There was Almost no brake fluid inside the reservoir causing the brakes to fail with no warning. Looked at similar trucks and all have brake fluid leaking from the same location. With as little as 10,000 miles. Mine has 22,000 miles and it’s failed requiring complet replacement of the brake booster. Taking to the dealership to replace the complete brake booster assembly when part is available. This is a 21 Chevy 2500 truck that pulls up to 18,000 pounds. higher than normal braking application needed, can be deadly or lead to complete b

My fiance started the truck. Drove about 2 miles from my mothers house, the check engine light came on. The traction control light came on and then she informed me that it felt like all braking power was lost. Truck is being towed to dealership. Could have killed or badly injured someone.

Unexpected roof rail airbag deployment without vehicle impact or accident. Front left and right side deploy - rear left and right side deploy spontaneously without notice.

I own a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD Duramax diesel with approximately 100,300 miles. The truck began displaying a “Service Emissions System” warning and a countdown message that in a certain number of miles the vehicle will be limited in speed (for example to 65 mph). GM’s own Duramax diesel owner’s supplement explains that when a “Service Emission System” message appears it is accompanied by a distance-until-speed-limit countdown and that the truck will progressively limit speed first to about 65 mph and then to about 55 mph if the condition is not corrected, telling the owner to see the dealer. This creates a safety risk because the derate can occur while driving on highways or rural roads, where an unexpected limit on maximum speed can interfere with merging, passing, and keeping u

Service steering column lock continually appears on my screen. Front collision detectors are also going off for no reason.
