While pulling our new travel trailer home from the dealership I tested the trailer brakes prior to leaving the camper dealers lot and the trailer brakes work with both the manual switch and the trucks brake pedal. But while traveling down the highway and braking with the foot pedal the truck emitted an audible alert tone but by the time that I looked at the dash the visual message had already disappeared. While traveling this happened a few more times before I was finally able to read the alert notification on the dash in time to read the there was a trailer brake fault and the electronic trailer brake controller had been disabled. The trailer I was pulling was well within the trucks TWR rated capacity, but yet heavier than the truck. Luckily I finally figured out what was going on and did not need to brake hard and was able to get my trailer to our nearby destination. Had I have been aware that there could be a trailer brake controller problem I would have never made this trip with my truck and trailer and risked incident. At no point in my truck purchasing process or during ownership have I ever been notified that my truck could have trailer braking problems. Had there been a situation where I needed to stop fast it could have resulted in catastrophy. Chevrolet needs to inform owners of this potential safety issue immediately.  After the fact, I came across multiple articles stating that GM has issued a service bulletin for the problem, but apparently will only be addressed at the time of customer complaint. I did call the dealership where I purchased my truck and was informed at that time of the service bulletin. My truck has since been to the repair shop to have the trailer brake control switch replaced and trailer brakes are currently functioning properly.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2022","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"SILVERADO 1500","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
