Chronological view of owner reports
Every time the truck is started it will give a dash screen warning of "Low Coolant Level" even though the reservoir is completely full. It has been doing it for years now. The warning can simply be dismissed, but I worry that if it actually ever is low, I will never know until it's too late because myself and everyone affected is going to simply dismiss the warning as it is a daily occurrence. That is to say if the sensor works properly at all. I have researched it online on several Chevy owners websites and it is a very common problem that appears to be from a faulty sensor that is built into the plastic AF reservoir. Many have stated they have reported it to dealerships, but to no avail.
Repeated temporary failures in the Integrated Trailer Braking Control (ITBC) results in trailer brakes being inoperable (disconnected) while driving as indicated by the warning display on the dash. The complete loss of trailer braking, including increased stopping distance or trailer instability which could result in serious injury, death, or property damage. The ITBC has been replaced twice, including once by dealership and the problem persists. This has been occuring from 2019 until today whenever I tow my 5th wheel. Trailer to truck connecting cords and outlets have been inspected and/or replaced as a precaution. This is the same 5th wheel which was towed by a 2005 chevy 2500HD for 10 years without a problem using an aftermarket Brake Controller.
