General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and GMC Sierra 2500 vehicles equipped with the enhanced towing option and 20-inch accessory tire/wheel package.

“The backup camera system blackout for half a second and shows up in another position as if the vehicle moved sideways as backup straight. Completely throwing me off direction which make the entire experience full off uncertainty. This has happened since the day I purchased it in 2024 from McNeil chevrolet and they only wasted my time telling me that they reset the computer and SHOULD BE FIXED ( never fixed it !!) Constantly asked about a fix for backup camera when getting other services and recall work done but never fixed or even a apology. They just add on the bill that they washed my truck which never ever happened (lies). So I tried a different dealership (Ballas) and they did replace the 0w20 weight oil that wasn't supposed to be ran in my 6.6 gas motor that Swanton Ballas had put in it, trust the dealership professional they state in their ads now had the wrong oil in it for 1-2 thousand miles. So this dealership looked into the camera system and seen the issue but wouldn't verify it by a simple video or even just put it in writing (Protecting the manufacturer company from responsibility). I contacted GM and I was told that I can get it fixed when they…”
“My brake rotors are damaged to the point where they have to be replaced at 36,000 miles this doesn’t sound right to me because I had the same truck in a 2018 and I had over 60,000 miles on it and the brakes were still like new. I was just trying to find out if they’re having a problem with their brake rotors. I never told anything with it and I know other people that tow with the same truck and they have twice as many miles and their brakes are still good.”
“First started around 4 to 6000 miles, felt a shuttering between 50 and 65 mph. Shattering lasted from 10 to maybe 30 seconds let off the fuel and reapplied still there on one or two occasions. RPMs were approximately 2000 RPM shattering stopped in our PMs went down to 1500. This is occurred many times taken to a dealership always get same result, no problem found. Problem always occurs just after a transmission shift which I can tell by RPM. When I apply gas shuttering sometimes increases not always. Also noticed that sometimes shifting on a flat surface 65 miles an hour engine will speed up to almost 2000 RPM and when it goes to shift back, I get a clunk or sometimes a shutter normal cruising is about 1500 RPM at 65 mile an hour. I didn’t notice towing an empty trailer about 2600 pounds shattering seemed worse. With no Trailer I sometimes get erratic shifting where RPM goes 1500 to 2000 to 2500 and then back down again then back up again then it can shift all the way back to 1500 RPM still maintaining 65 mph. Also another problem may be connected to transmission, but I have pulled out into traffic pushed on the pedal and it feels like the truck has no power…”
