NHTSA Complaint #11071849 — 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 3500

RANDOMLY WITH NO NEEDED INSTANCE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER READS SERVICE TRAILER BREAK. WITH OR WITHOUT A TRAILER CONNECTED. WITH THE TRAILER CONNECTED THE TRAILER BREAKS FAILS TO OPERATE CAUSING A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. AFTER PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS SAFELY AS POSSIBLE WITH AN APPROXIMATE OF 20K POUNDS WITH NO BRAKES ON THE TRAILER AND TURNING THE TRUCK ON AND THEN BACK OFF THE BRAKES RESUME AS NORMAL. OTHER SERVICE PROMPTS RANDOMLY APPEAR ON THE INFO CLUSTER ON THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE, BUT NONE AS SERIOUS AS THIS PARTICULAR ONE. SUCH AS SERVICE FRONT CAMERA, SERVICE STABILITRAC, AND SERVICE DEF SYSTEM. WHILE THESE MAY ALL BE RELATED TO THE SAME CAUSE I FEEL MY LIFE AND THE LIVES OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC ARE BEING GAMBLED WITH WHILE THE CAUSE IS GUESSED AT. I HAVE TAKEN MY TRUCK IN FOR THESE RELATED ISSUES FOR A TOTAL OF THREE TIMES NOW. EACH TIME I AM SENT BACK OUT TO BE THE TEST [XXX] IN THIS POTENTIAL [XXX] TRAP. THE VIDEOS WERE TO BIG TO UPLOAD TO THIS FORM. BUT I HAVE VIDEOS OF THIS ISSUE WITH AND WITHOUT A TRAILER CONNECTED AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. PLEASE EXCUSE MY PROFANITY!
