There are 6 owner-reported visibility & wipers complaints for the 2019 Chevrolet Silveradoin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
My vehicle has a rear window leak. The dealer looked at it and said this is a common problem with the new body styles. Dealer confirmed it is a crack in window seal and window frame. Although there isn’t any immediate safety issues. There may be long term including mold that passengers will breathe in and also the water leaks down window on the interior and creates streaks and hard to see through rear window if not cleaned often. GM knows about this issue and has released a technical service bulletin (Chevrolet TSB 18-NA-383)
Today March 25 2022 around 07:20 driving to work, the passenger side stationary panel of a 3 panel sliding window exploded with a loud noise. The window is totally shattered, but stayed in place. Little cubed glass is starting to fall from around the bottom edge. A month ago, I had experienced a crackling arcing sound coming from the defrost on that same panel. I took it into Quirk Chevrolet, Manchester NH to have it looked at. they stopped the arcing and released the vehicle back to me and fixed under "service bulletin". I am finding many other individuals experiencing this same exploding glass issue. There is a bulletin out concerning this particular model and yr truck for sliding glass window defroster overheating issues. I am hearing that the dealer is not addressing this as an issue and not remedying this under warranty. I have only 28500 miles on the truck.
WHEN PLACING THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE AND WATCHING THE REAR VIEW CAMERA, WHILE IN MOTION, AS YOU GET CLOSER TO AN OBJECT THE CAMERA WILL GO BLACK FOR A FEW SECONDS, DISTURBING THE DRIVERS IMMEDIATE VIEW OF ANYTHING BEHIND THEM AND NOT VIEWABLE BY THE REAR VIEW MIRROR. THIS PRESENTS THE POSSIBLY OF CRASHING INTO AN OBJECT BEHIND YOU UNEXPECTEDLY AND UNKNOWINGLY; WHETHER IT BE REVERSING IN A PARKING LOT OR INTO A SPOT NEAR OTHERS PERSONAL PROPERTY. IT HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION.
REAR CAMERA WAY TOO BRIGHT. GOING INTO REVERSE GEAR, THE REAR CAMERA GOES TO FULL BRIGHTNESS AND MAKES SEEING OUTSIDE OF THE CAR NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE AND VERY DANGEROUS. THE CAMERA NEEDS TO EITHER A) HAVE THE ABILITY TO TURN DOWN BRIGHTNESS OR B) SET AT A LOWER LEVEL OF BRIGHTNESS CONSISTENT WITH SEEING OUTSIDE IN THE DARK.
CAMERA HAS VERY POOR NIGHT VISION. FUZZY PICTURE. THE DISPLAY AT NIGHT IS SO BRIGHT IT PREVENTS YOU FROM BEING ABLE TO USE THE MIRRORS. THE DESIGN CREATES A DANGEROUS CONDITION AT NIGHT.
WHEN THE BACK UP CAMERA IS ACTIVATED BY BEING PUT IN REVERSE IT IS SO BRIGHT THAT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT THE PASSENGER SIDE MIRROR AT NIGHT. THIS IS A NON HD MONITOR AND THERE IS NO WAY TO ADJUST BRIGHTNESS OR TO TURN OFF THER SCREEN. IT COULD RESULT IN SCRAPING THE SIDE OF THE TRUCK OR HITTING SOMETHING. BACK UP CAMERAS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A REPLACEMENT FOR MIRRORS
