When towing a trailer, the trailer brakes will disconnect when applying medium to hard brake. This is when the brakes on the trailer are needed the most. The trailer lights still work when the brakes controller disconnects them. There was a recall on the 2024 Chevrolet HD trucks to "fix" this.

Safety Issue. The raised cruise control speed set button on the steering wheel is prone to being touched when rotating the steering wheel while making sharp turns when driving through parking lots at low speed. If the distance cruise was previously set at say 45 mph the last time it was used, and the set button is very briefly hit upward when rotating the wheel through your hands to the left, it can inadvertently cause the truck to start accelerating to that previously-set speed. The cruise button needs to be programmed such that at certain steering angles it will not respond to inputs. This is very dangerous. I ave had this happen to me at least 5 times. Hitting the brakes stopped the acceleration. I reported it to the dealer as a potential engine surge but they could not reproduce it. I just recently realized what was happening. I believe this can easily be addressed by a steering angle lockout of the button. Other issues: Drivetrain vibrates occasionally and shifts very hard (drivetrain literally slams through gear change) when leaving driving from a stop a slow speeds. Dealer cannot replicate. This diesel truck gets very poor mileage possibly from spending too much time in regeneration mode. Truck is super sensitive to fuel. Mileage varies drastically from fill up to fill up depending upon station. I believe the fuel cetane content affects regeneration in unexpected ways. I buy fuel at name brand stations but mileage varies drastically from vendor to vendor. Mileage average goes down to about 11 mpg much of the time due to time in regeneration. Dealer has no comments. I know HD trucks don't have official mileage ratings but this is just crazy. I drive light on the accelerator. Rarely achieved up to 21 mpg but average mileage runs about 11-12. I believe this to be a fault with these trucks as I have read complaints from many others. The infotainment system frequently loses all audio, including turn signal sound, nav. GM has no fix. Possibly software.

During cold weather, temperatures below freezing, both sideview mirrors open fully extended contacting the fenders, sometimes open partially, sometimes open 3/4 of the way. Cycling the mirrors closed then open condition repeats. Each mirror responds independently from the other. This resulted in dents on each fender from the mirrors when they open fully. The doors cannot be opened without further damaging the fenders and or the mirrors. Once the temperature rises above freezing, the mirrors return to normal function. The truck is available for inspection upon request. Safety concern and risk exists without function and use of sideview mirrors. Cannot see down both sides of vehicle behind when operating. The safety and risk increases exponentially when towing. The problem was not duplicated at the dealership due to the vehicle was inside the shop unexposed to the below freezing temperatures. It has been reported to the dealership and inspected by the body shop manager who also acknowledged the problem and cause. Mirrors and vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer or insurance representative. There were no warning lamps to indicate an issue. The indication was the function of the mirrors and the positions they would stop at when vehicle is unlocked.
