This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
While driving, the stabiltrak, ABS lights come on and the vehicle powers down and barely moves. This has happened on several occasions, mostly during cold weather, although it has happened in warm weather at highway speeds, creating a dangerous situation while trying to maneuver out of traffic. On one occasion, the vehicle was towed to a Chevrolet dealership and when checked over they reported that nothing could be found. The vehicle operated normally after sitting there all night. This is dangerous! I have read many instances of the same thing happening to other Silverado owners. Please check into this. This has happened at least 5 times, the latest around January of 2019.
When attempting to start vehicle I stop leave it in start position and it will start by itself when not attempting to start. After this when put into gear it will shut off when this happens.
According to NHTSA my vehicle has an outstanding recall. Why has this not been taken care of yet ? I've asked my local Chevrolet dealer and was told there's no recall on my vehicle.

My dash has cracked significantly in three different places at different times. It is unknown to me what caused the first two cracks, but the most recent occurred while I was driving down the road. This not only affects the value of the vehicle, but also worries me that in the event of an accident, it may affect the airbags or even project pieces of the dash towards anyone in the vehicle.
Takata recall - there has been a recall on our vehicle since 2016 with no remedy available and is preventing us from turning in to our fleet management. Please post a remedy or remove the recall!
Dashboard has cracked and broken in 2 separate places. Top left of the passenger airbag and top left of the instrument cluster with a piece broken out. This is a safety hazard with plastic pieces that can become projectiles or cut the airbag in the event of a crash. This is a common problem on many models and will get worse as the plastic has become brittle. Vehicle is a 2011 year with 82000 miles.
My 2011 silverdo dash is cracking by the passanger air bag and above the instrument panel. The cracks get bigger in cold temperatures and cause a bigger gap in the cold temperatures. As the weather gets warm the gap gets smaller. This crack is due to a defect in the dash material. I fear that if I were to get into a accident that pieces from the dash could cut the air bag if deployed causing serious or fiscal damage to myself or others riding in my truck. If others are injured in my truck due to my dash pieces cutting my air bag will I be sued because of a GM dash defect" I would also like to mention the clear plastic in my dash cluster is cracking. You touch it and it falls apart. Why"
I am one of the many that has a cracking dashboard that GM has refused to fix. Mine is above the passenger side airbag. I got in one day everything was fine, the next day got in to go and there was the crack. Vehicle was not moving when I noticed it. I have always had a sun shade in the window when the truck is parked.
Ignition lock cylinder binding recall ignition position gets stuck on start position and can be a potential safety hazard. My VIN on my 2011 Chevy Silverado doee not come up as recall but only certain 2011 Chevy Silverado but mine has the same safety hazard
Within 2 day, 2 cracks appeared on my dash. They are in the same spots as others have complained on the net. Top left corner of passenger air bad to windshield and behind the instrument cluster to windshield.
Dash cracking in several places. Had replaced w/in 12,000 miles and now needs replacing again. Also cigarette lighter covers and usb cover have broken at least 4 times. Handle latch on console broke off while not in use.
My 2011 Silverado dash is cracking right by the passenger side air bag. This is happening on 2007 to 2013 General Motors vehicles. I believe this could cause pieces of the dash to break apart when the air bag goes off.
The dash on my 2011 Chevy Silverado lt has numerous cracks both on the visible parts, but more importantly around the bolts and screws that fasten it in place. My concern is that it is no longer structurally sound and that it could fail causing injury. This dash houses the passenger side air back and it has two cracks that touch the air bag. It is my concern that this is a safety issue. The dash is virtually cracked from one in to the other and the vehicle only has 64,000 miles.
