My 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD does not bear the certification label required by 49 CFR Part 567. I bought it used from a franchised Chevrolet dealer in April 2024 and am the current owner. The date reported is the date I examined the vehicle and confirmed the label was absent. This is not an incident, and I do not know when or how the label came to be missing. I checked the driver-side hinge pillar, door-latch post, door edge, and surrounding areas. The only labels present are: a GM trailering label (10,000 lb GVWR, 26,000 lb GCWR, 6,390 lb rear GAWR, no front GAWR, no FMVSS conformance statement); a Tire and Loading Information placard (states seating capacity, a 2,111 lb occupant-and-cargo limit, and tire sizes, but no GVWR and no GAWR); and a cellular module sticker with no weight information. Nothing on the vehicle states the manufacturer, the month and year of manufacture, the GVWR with front and rear GAWR, and the FMVSS conformance statement. A 2023 GMC Sierra 3500HD I photographed for comparison bears all of it. On the panel below the trailering label there is a rectangular area, distinguishable from the surrounding paint, with adhesive residue visible and palpable. I report this without characterizing it. The practical effect is that I cannot determine my front or rear gross axle weight rating from the vehicle. This truck was also built with a factory-reduced 10,000 lb GVWR rather than the approximately 11,350 lb published for the same configuration, and the certification label is the one document that would display the certified ceiling alongside the actual axle capacities. Photographs of every label present, of the comparison label, and of the residue area are attached. General Motors has not provided the VIN-specific build record or any record of whether a certification label was applied at assembly.

Rear tailgate opening and closing repeatedly on its own. Background: Arrived home from work yesterday evening, Jun 4, 2026. Parked my truck in the driveway. It was a hot sunny day. Turned the vehicle off, exited the vehicle, and locked the doors. Upon walking around behind my vehicle, the tailgate was opening and closing repeatedly. I attempted to manually close it to see if it would stop, I pushed the lock button on my key fob, and I pressed the tailgate button on the dash which would normally cause it to either open or close depending on its current position. None of those steps resolved the issue. I quickly googled the problem, identified the correct fuse in the dash, and pulled the endgate fuse to stop the tailgate from opening and closing on its own. With the fuse pulled, the tailgate does not function. I called my dealer who informed me it is a known issue with some Silverado trucks and that some had been recalled however he noted my 2022 was not included in the recall for this issue. I have an appointment on Jun. 19, 2026 to have it repaired.

When truck is turned off, cannot remove key. You have to wait 5 minutes or more before the key will come out of the ignition. Sometimes longer. This is an ongoing problem. We have another truck doing the same thing.

Vehicle was brought to Lone Star Chevrolet in Houston on 6/16/2025 because Tailgate would not open with the button and only would open with the fob. They stated no parts to fix and did not advise of the severity of risk from the recall when picked truck up. Saturday afternoon [XXX] while leaving a parking lot and driving on the feeder road the tailgate opened resulting in the large ice chest that was full of water bottles ice and and storage containers with food to fall on road along with battery power fan and several extra batteries. These items unexpectedly sliding down the feeder resulted in several cars making defensive maneuvers nearly resulting in several crashes and the ice chest bumping 1 vehicle. All lanes of traffic stopped and several people helped to pick up the debris off the road. No information from people who stopped was collected, and no report from driver of truck that hit cooler.

The key constantly gets stuck in the ignition after shutting off the vehicle. Some times have have to start the car multiple times and move the steering wheel to get the key to come out. Sometimes that doesn't work and I have to play with it for up to 3 minutes just trying to get the key out.
