The front trunk latch mechanism repeatedly fails. When this occurs, the vehicle believes the trunk is open and will not let you drive in normal mode. It forces you to proceed in limp mode which is dangerous. The 12v battery has to be reset to have the sensor redetect the close latch. Reports from multiple forum sources show this to be a widespread problem and currently dealer are replacing with the same mechanism and the problems reoccur.Owner report · Structure · Sep 2025

While in traffic over 45 miles per hour, the vehicle placed itself into a hazard mode due to the electric vehicle propulsion system. This happened so fast and the deceleration rate was so quick that it risked a rear end collision. This is the second time this has happened and both were following a heavy rain storm. I drove through a modest puddle that did not even submerge half of the tire wall making contact with the road and did so slowly. Less than five miles later, the vehicle goes into what my service advisor calls "limp mode." I have asked General Motors to give me an even exchange or, in lieu of the fear this vehicle gave me, an upgrade to a Cadillac Escalade IQ.Owner report · Electrical System,Engine,Fuel/Propulsion System · Jul 2025
The soft tonneau cover that was installed on the vehicle was faulty and became detached from the metal tension bar and cant be reattached.Owner report · Structure,Unknown Or Other · Jul 2025
The backup camera stopped working around July 1. I took the vehicle to the dealer and the dealer could not fix the problem. The dealer says GM is aware that some vehicles have their backup camera stop working and is working on a software fix. Backup cameras have been a required safety item on all cars sold in the US since 2018. An inoperable camera thus is a safety risk. There are no warning lights or other messages.Owner report · Electrical System · Jul 2025
Frunk compartment of Silverado ev won’t close and puts the car in “limp” mode. Dealership has replaced it twice. Still happens making the car not drive able and unsafe. Multiple people have had this issue and needs to be addressed pleaseOwner report · Unknown Or Other · Jun 2025
I am 6'2" tall. The shoulder straps on both the drivers and passenger side do not adjust up far enough to protect me in the event of a crash. The straps slip down below my shoulder. This is due to the fact that the WT model does not have power seats, so I am unable to lower my seating position to a safe level. If the seat could be lowered, the shoulder straps would sit properly above my shoulder. In the event of a crash the shoulder strap will be totally useless.Owner report · Seat Belts · Jun 2025
The contact owned a 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV. The contact stated that when idle, the vehicle would hesitate before accelerating. Continuing to drive at approximately 55 MPH, the accelerator was released, and the vehicle continued to accelerate. The vehicle veered off the road, where the vehicle flipped a total of 5 times before coming to a stop. The contact received injuries to their back, whipflash, and a contusion of the stomach. Medical treatment was needed and had been ongoing. The vehicle was towed and totaled. A police report was filed. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.Owner report · Power Train,Vehicle Speed Control · Apr 2025
The rear door sensors do not function, doors are always indicated as being closed, even if they are open. The car gives no warning if door open and vehicle put into drive. Also with walk away lock the vehicle can lock while rear door is in the open state resulting in accidentally locking a occupant in the vehicle. The walk away locked engaged while I was at the rear of the vehicle unloading my dog from the back seats.
