2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Other Problems

The oil cooler line was un-lodged from the metal crimp that secures it while I was pulling away causing total loss of all engine oil in a matter of seconds. Not only does the car immediately tell you to turn your car off to avoid catastrophic engine failure, but this is also dangerous for other drivers as the oil may cause a hazard for controlling the vehicle going through the oil.

On 6/4/2025 while driving my truck, I noticed smoke coming out of vents of the front passenger side of vehicle. I got out of truck and went to open passenger door to investigate and the engine ignited. A neighbor called 911 and the local fire department responded.

I have a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT and I am having issues with the transmission bucking, hesitating, slipping. I am also having issues with the variable timing system. The variable timing system started acting up last year and when I took it to the dealer they replaced it and I was charged over $400 for it to be repaired.

I was driving down the road and my oil lines from my engine to my oil cooler exploded and oil went everywhere. I turned off the truck immediately. I started looking around and there is a Bulletin (N192220080) addressing this issue with my make model and year vehicle but my VIN was not included.

Was at a red light after a very short drive, as soon as the light turned green I let off break hit gas and felt a huge kick that felt as if I was rear ended. I let off the gas and another big kick happened. Check engine light came on and dashboard read “Service ECS and Service parking break”.

I have 2019 chevy silverado 1500 that only has 38000 miles and bought it at 34000 miles. I drive it 20 miles if that to work and back only and use my wifes cars another chevy on weekends family car. One morning I turned it on and it stated no oil pressure to turn car off.

Rear defrost is causing a loud hissing/arcing sound. After leaving the defrost on for a short period of time, I could see smoke forming near the bottom left corner of the window. This is concerning because defrost is turned on automatically when the truck is started and it is cold outside.

Back up camera fails, and a collision follows. The camera keeps flickering and going black all the time. I ask the dealer and was told that if the factory warranty expired, nothing they can do.

The rear windows leak because of a faulty window seal. This is a widespread issue that some people don’t even notice until truck is out of warranty and dealers want $700-$1000 to fix. The issues causes water to enter the cab, mine had water going into seatbelt areas that could damage mechanisms inside and cause seatbelts to not operate properly in a crash.

Water leak on rear windshield creating damage on floor and headliner my safety is at risk because there are electrical cables on top of the head liner that can create a fire if get wet also the bad smell I notify chevrolet gm and the dealership all the silverado 2019 with the rear sliding window leak water and this is a factory problem they should recall my warranty expired last month they dont want to fix the issue and I have to spend money and time to fix something they build wrong

Forward automatic braking system has not ever worked since I purchased the truck. I was told that chevrolet was aware of this and was going to issue a recall. I did receive a recall notice #n192275630.

After performing the latest recalls the check engine light illuminated with a p25a2 code. I did not notice any change in the vehicle handling or performance. After I took the vehicle to the dealership for service they told me that they couldn't find an error code, only the p25a2 code which is to illuminate the check engine light.

An intermittent electrical connection between the b+ battery cable and the alternator could cause the vehicle to stall. The intermittent connection could also lead to arcing, which could generate sufficient heat to damage surrounding material and increase the risk of a fire. Gm recall #: n192273510.

Back window on truck is leaking water. Headliner is discolored and its very close to an airbag. I'm hoping its fixed before the water sets off the air bag accidentally.

Back up camera is fuzzy at night and is very dangerous to use when backing up. Using it at night has resulted in almost being in an accident on two occasions. I took it to the chevrolet dealer today and they said it needed no repair at this time and it met gm specs.

Service rear vision system and blue screen for backup camera and camera system on truck has been intermittently not working since purchased on 5/18/19. Have had the truck to the dealer twice to fix. First time replaced rear camera.

This vehicle is a brand new 2019 chevrolet silverado 1500 trail boss. This truck has the 4.3l v6. The first time backing up in my driveway I noticed the backup camera flickered everytime I touched the brake pedal.

2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, VIN [XXX] . Purchased in 2020 from McLarty Chevrolet Little Rock, AR. Dealer, Russell Chevrolet Sherwood, AR installed remanufactured engine 03/13/2025 at Russell Chevrolet (Service Order [XXX]).

I was driving for an hour when the truck was dinging and it told me to turn off engine no pressure with oil coolant I pulled into a customer’s driveway and all the oil in the truck was all over the customer’s blacktop called Chevy they knew nothing about problem and said no recall and was not covered with 42000 miles on truck had it towed and repaired by my local mechanic who also questioned Chevy and got the same response

I am reporting a catastrophic internal engine failure in a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 at 87,600 miles. Prior to this event, there were NO warning lights or symptoms. While traveling alone during the holiday on a remote, one-lane road with no shoulder, the vehicle suddenly suffered a loss of power. Every warning light on the dashboard illuminated at once, followed by shaking, misfiring, and loud knocking from the engine. Because I was on a one-lane road with no place to pull over, this created an immediate safety hazard for me and oncoming traffic. I had the car towed to the dealership ( where I bought the truck) confirmed the failure was a collapsed lifter and scored camshaft (which i found out to be a known design flaw in the 5.3L DFM engine). The dealer said it was not under warranty. I felt held over a barrel by the dealership; they initially provided an inflated quote and told me it would cost approximately $1,200, not including tax and shop fees, just to put the engine back together if I wanted to tow it elsewhere for a second opinion. I was forced to pay over $8,395 under protest just to regain use of my primary vehicle after 42 days of downtime. Upon completion, the dealer provided a "Lifetime Warranty" on the replacement parts. This is a tacit admission that these components were never intended to fail during the life of the vehicle. GM refuses to include this vehicle in its coverage list, treating a dangerous engine stall as a simple "out of warranty" repair. This is a systemic safety defect that requires a mandatory recall expansion before it results in a terrible accident. My understanding is that a Class Action lawsuit, Harrison vs. General Motors, for this same thing, but they say my car is not in it, i should have been put on notice for this so I could protect myself.

My truck locks up the back tires at 7 MPH. No warning lights come on and the only indication it is going to happen is when shifting from park to reverse it bangs extremely hard.

Transmission-Has always shuddered and hesitates when shifting. Problem seems to get worse. Dealer had no answer except try flushing transmission.

GM refuses to cover catalytic converter recall 20V-005 despite matching VIN/build criteria. Failure occurred at 88k, but dealer refused service at the time. I'm now driving it at 108k.

The transmission does not shift smoothly. It actually will lurch forward after a stop at a sign or traffic light. It hesitates upon acceleration. I find it unerving and possibly dangerous. It was fixed by the dealer on October 22, 2024 and was good for 6 months but has started to do the same thing again.

Sliding rear window leaks in 3 spots. Leak poses the safety risk of mold growth inside the vehicle along with the potential of water getting inside of electrical components and air bag device compartments. The problem was reproduced and confirmed at the dealership, to which the plastic seal at the top of the rear window was confirmed to have failed in 3 locations.

Hard shifting, mainly first to second gear. Shuddering at high speeds, and hard downshifting.

Crank no start with a p129f set due to internal speed failure between fuel pump and fuel pump control module.

I had known transmission problems resulting in $5974 repairs. I consider this an extreme safety issue. Had the transmission failed in heavy traffic, it would present a dangerous situation for both me and others near me.

Pulling an enclosed trailer with my 2019 Chevy PU. Stopped at a gas station and discovered the tailgate had dropped down while driving. Making the turn into the gas station with the trailer in tow creased the tailgate considerably by the jack on the trailer.

The rear view camera mounted in the tailgate of my truck displays a distorted and fuzzy display on the video display, when in reverse gear. When I select reverse gear and it's at night, the light at the top center of the tailgate, intended to illuminate the tow hitch, is so bright that it bleaches any view from the screen. I'd suggest the light be on a separate switch to be used only for actually hitching to a trailer. The display shows the guiding marks where the truck will go and it is bleached from view also. This is a hazard because the view is so blurry, nothing of value is displayed. I mentioned this to the dealer's service manager, where I purchased this truck, used, and he said that the camera would have to be replace or at least removed from the tailgate and cleaned and resealed. I noticedd this imperfection upon delivery as a used truck and since it's out of the warranty period i will wait to have it repaired. Thank you..

IT'S BEEN 3 TIMES I HAVE HAD A RECALL ON THE BRAKES AND THEY CHARGED ME FOR THE DIAGNOSIS THAT RETURNED p25a2 AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME FOR FIXING SOMETHING THAT WENT WRONG SINCE MANUFACTURING MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 6,000 MILES IT SKIDS A LOUD SOUND IS HEARD DOWN AND WHEN I BRAKE FOR A LITTLE MORE AND I CRASH 3 TIMES

Sliding Back window of 2019 and newer GMC pickups are experiencing issues with defects on the plastic connecting to the back window. They are cracking and allowing water to enter vehicle and down to carpet possibly creating mold. They have fixed mine one time already and the fix lasted for a little over 2 years.

My rear window was leaking and repaired by the dealer in 2020 . Then in November of 2023 I noticed the water again in the cab I noticed stains and mold in the cab the vehicle now had 42,000 miles the dealer said the truck was out of warranty so I would have to pay out of pocket or make an insurance claim .

Truck developed leak in rear window area, which will create mold in the vehicle, making it unsafe to be in. Took it into Chevrolet dealer and told it was third brake light leak a known issue with a TSB. First told will need window replaced also, but then they changed to the reseal window (see quote attached).

The rear sliding window structure is faulty and this is well documented through complaints. The structure surrounding the rear sliding window is not strong enough to stand normal wear and tear. This is documented in [XXX] .

On Monday, [XXX] my husband was driving his 2019 Chevy Trail Boss (VIN [XXX] ) home from work and a warning light came on the dash indicating “low oil pressure, turn engine off.” He pulled off the road immediately to turn the truck off and then realized that there was oil pouring out from the truck and which had covered the entire underside and sides of the vehicle. After having the truck towed to the local dealership we were notified that the issue was related to the oil cooler lines detaching causing the oil leak. The recommended fix was replacement of the lines and fresh oil. We proceeded with the service and thankfully there was no apparent damage to the engine at this time. The dealership acknowledged that this was a common problem with this truck. We paid $1,307.13 for the completion of this work, completed by Urka Auto Center in Ludington, MI. Unfortunately, after doing some research it has come to our attention that the detachment of the oil cooler lines is a very common problem amongst 2019 Chevy and GMC trucks and have located service bulletin (GMC TSB [XXX]) that identifies this as an issue for a select group of vehicles. It is very concerning that this has never been identified as a recall and it’s obvious that this issue affects many more trucks than those identified in the service bulletin. Similar issues also noted in Customer Satisfaction Program documents ([XXX] and [XXX]). We live in Michigan and, as happens in Michigan during winter, we’ve been experiencing snow and cold temps. It seems that in our research the colder temps put these oil cooler lines at an even greater risk of failure. The detachment of the oil coolant lines seems to be much more wide-spread than what has been acknowledged in the referenced documents. This parts failure has potential to severely damage the vehicle's engine. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My purge pump has gone out 3 times. I do not overfill my tank. They have also stated it is due to no lid on the gas tank but this truck is designed without a lid for the tank.

Truck does not recognize shifter position of park, will not turn off properly. No wat to tell if transmission is safely in park. Does this about 50 percent of the time.

Water leaking from the rear windshield into the vehicle. Large amounts of water into the housing for the rear seatbelts, which is concerning for damage to the seatbelts. There are concerns for mold and electrical issues as well.

In November of 2021, There was a water leak found inside the truck, on the passenger side rear cab. Chevy repaired in accordance with GM bulletin # 18-na-383. After six month, leak came back.

Changed my oil and filter and notice a oil leak from under my radiator area. Investigated and found that the oil cooler lines was leaking from crimp joints.

Started to drive my truck this morning and it was driving very rough. Dashboard warning lights came on; SERVICE PARKING BRAKE, SERVICE ESC, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT, PARKING BRAKE ON INDICATOR. None of this was happening yesterday.

Vehicle was parked and not running. I got into the vehicle and started it. I proceeded to put the vehicle in reverse and backed my truck up out of a parking spot.

Purchased this vehicle in nov of 2019. The rearview camera does not function properly and gm does not want to change my camera. They keep on stating they haven't found a fix and always leave me with no new information.

When I hit the brakes while moving in reverse, my backup camera glitches or gives an error to service. This could prevent me from seeing something behind me while backing up. This has been a problem since purchasing.

Rear back up camera quit working. The center monitor read "service rear view camera". Tried turning the motor off and on numerous times but still would not work.

I bought a new 2019 chevy silverado at the end of 2019. The backup camera flickers and cuts out. I took it to the dealership and was told there is no solution for it.

Backup camera so burry at night can't see or tell whats behind the truck. Never had one like this, dealership said there's they can do about it. A $50,000.00 truck should have a working camera.

Rear backup camera screen gets fuzzy with several white lines across mainly during night driving. Very poor visibility for a brand new truck/camera. Good visibility is critical for backing up in a crowded parking lot at night.

Have taken veh,in twice for recall fixes,getting notices on ph ,saying veh has not been fixed

Rear view camera cuts out intermittently when brakes are applied while backing up. Rear view camera is very fuzzy at night and is difficult to see. This is a safety concern due to visibility.

The backup camera is useless at night, I already took it to the dealer and they told me that it was normal for the trim of the truck

I was driving on the highway for approximately 1 hour/75 miles. I pulled over to clean out my truck. I parked in a vacant parking lot.

Not really a safety concern but the backup camera worked for about a year, then got foggy during wet weather and completely useless in winter here in Anchorage, it was still foggy the following summer and then it went completely off and the following message appeared on the screen: service rear vision system. Of course it’s out of warranty now.

This truck has about 35,000 miles on it and the frame is rusted severely. Doesn’t feel safe to drive. Have to because it’s my only vehicle.

the transmission at the time of putting the speed jumps by itself, and the stereo turns off completely by itself

1) Temperature outside 25 degrees F 2) Used Remote Start to warm up the truck 3) Truck ran for 5-8 mins 4) After getting in the truck when I closed the driver side door the full rear window glass completely shattered and blew out.

Clarity of the back up camera is very cloudy or not clear at all

Start-stop system not working,

Backup camera is so bright at night that I can not see my mirrors to use them. Backup camera gets lines on the screen. This happens where moving or sitting still.

Camera is really fuzzy not clear and horizontal lines run through it it makes it very hard to see at night when you are backing up

When using the backup camera at night, it goes into full brightness blinding myself and all passengers. I cannot use the mirrors to back up my trailer because it is extremely overwhelming. I have covered it with a t-shirt so that I can actually see.

My backup camera does not show a clear image when backing up at night.

Present on a 2019 chevy rst z71 in nighttime conditions, when the rear backup camera is engaged the quality of the camera is extremely poor with grainy / pixelated image and may cut out entirely while the vehicle is stationary and in motion. This condition posse a danger to the safety of any one or any thing the driver may not see as a result of this condition

Back up camera system is too bright almost blinding at night and is poor quality. The bright screen make is difficult to see behind.

Poor visibility with rear camera at night time when backing up and the brightness and reflection is blinding while trying to use side mirrors

The back up camera at night is blinding due to brightness and is non-adjustable to dim. Brightness of screen makes it difficult to adjust vision looking away from it to use side mirrors. Safety issue with a moving vehicle.

Backup camera at night blurry and shines eye very hard to see to backup

The backup camera screen is at full brightness at night in the pitch dark making for this issue. If you are looking in your side rear view mirrors to backup and look to the right one, passing the screen, you are blinded by the brightness of the screen. This, in my opinion, is very dangerous.

The backup camera system is essentially unusable at night when reversing. The image quality is fuzzy at best and cuts in and out with horizontal lines flashing through it. On top of the fact that it is a fuzzy image, it is so bright, it is unbearable to look at, it's basically white-washed.

2019 chevy 1500 trail boss double cab: the backup camera cuts in and out when you apply pressure to the brakes. This could cause issues when you rely on this and then the camera cuts off and boom... You hit something/someone because the backup camera cuts off.

The chrome surrounding the air vents can reflect the sun in a manner that blinds the driver. This has happened to me on multiple occasions when driving north in the afternoon. It forces me to look away from the road, and causes imprinting in my vision, which reduces my ability to see when driving.
