2010 GMC SIERRA. CONSUMER WRITES REGARDING TAKATA AIRBAG SAFETY RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE SPONTANEOUSLY SET ON FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT RUNNING WHEN THE WHEN THE FIRE OCCURRED.*JS

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET, THE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FAILED ALMOST CAUSING ME TO BE IN AN ACCIDENT. THE ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS BLOWING UP WITH METAL ON METAL SOUNDS, LOSS OF CONTROL AND POWER. I HAD MY VEHICLE TRANSPORTED TO AN AUTHORIZED MECHANIC AND HE DETERMINED THE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM HAD FAILED AND THE ENGINE WOULD HAVE TO BE REBUILT. I SPENT OVER $3000 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AND IT STILL LEAKS OIL AND HAS ISSUES WITH PROVIDING CORRECT ENGINE POWER AND CONTROL. IT IS NOT SAFE NOR DEPENDABLE.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY TRUCK IS JUST CRACKING ALL OVER. I CONTINUOUSLY CLEAN AND USE SUN SHADES FOR IT. THIS IS A PRODUCT DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE LOCAL DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 78,000.

DASH IS CRACKING AROUND AIRBAG AND OTHER AREAS. CONCERN IS THAT BROKEN PIECES COULD BECOME SHRAPNEL IN A COLLISION.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN UNDER A RECALL FOR MANY YEARS AND STILL NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED BY GM

MY DASH HAD 4 CRACKS IN IT. THE PART COVERING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS VERY IN SAFE

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL LETTER JULY 2016 FOR THE TAKATA AIR BAG. I CALLED THE DEALER SERVICE GARAGE IN EL PASO, TEXAS AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE AIR BAGS. SO, THEY COULD NOT REP[LACE THE DEFECTIVE AIR BAG.

DASH BOARD CRACKING SEVERAL PLACES

WHEN IF EVER IS NHTSA GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS?? I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU AND GM FOR 7 YEARS NOW, TO GET SOMETHING DONE. IT'S BEEN LONG ENOUGH TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I LIVE IN A STATE WHERE WE GET 60 PLUS INCHES OF RAIN EVERY YEAR. AND THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS THEY GIVE FOR FAILURES OF THE AIRBAGS. I DON'T WANT TO GET SOMEONE KILLED BECAUSE YOU CAN'T FIND TIME TO DO YOUR JOB. TIME TO GET OFF THE POT, AND GO TO WORK. MY NEXT STEP WILL BE TO GET AHOLD OF TRUMP MAYBE HE CAN HELP YOU FIGURE IT OUT AND GET SOMETHING DONE ✅

DASH CRACKED IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS TO INCLUDE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG STORAGE COMPARTMENT (DASH MOUNTED). IT STARTED OUT AS A SMALL CRACK ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL COWL, IT GREW AND MULTIPLE CRACKS EMERGED SINCE THEN.

DASHBOARD CRACKED AROUND THE AIRBAG OPENINGS. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AND MAY AFFECT PROPER AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT OR CAUSE THE DASH TO FRAGMENT AND HIT OCCUPANTS IN A COLLISION.

DASH CRACKING AT PASS AIRBAG ( SAFETY ISSUES ) AND NUMEROUS CRACKS ON INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PORTION OF DASH... MULTIPLE EXACT PROBLEMS AND A LAWSUIT DATED JAN 2018. GM NEEDS TO REPLACE ALL THESE DASHBOARDS.

LIFE THREATENING SAFETY PROBLEM: WHILE MERGING INTO HIGH-SPEED TRAFFIC ON [XXX] IN CHARLOTTE NC, MY 2010 GMC SIERRA RAPIDLY DECELERATED FROM APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH TO 10 MPH. TWO TRACTOR-TRAILER TRUCKS GOING AT LEAST 70 MPH NARROWLY AVOIDED REAR-ENDING ME . ONLY THE LACK OF TRAFFIC ON THERE RIGHT SIDE PREVENTED A MAJOR DISASTER. MY DASHBOARD SHOWED A ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED/SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL/SERVICE SABILITRAK WARNINGS, AND THE ENGINE IDLED ERRATICALLY AS I MANEUVERED OFF THE TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. THERE WAS NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. THIS ENGINEER DESIGN PUT THE SAFETY AND LIVES OF MANY AT RISK BY DUMPING ENGINE POWER TO WHAT IS THE EQUIVALENT OF SLAMMING ON THE BREAKS AT HIGH SPEED WITHOUT WARNING. IN APRIL 2018, APPROXIMATELY 8 MONTHS AGO, I HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD ROAD. AN AUTHORIZED DEALER COMPLETED A $679 REPLACEMENT OF MY THROTTLE-BODY GASKET AND GAS PEDAL ASSEMBLY (SEE ATTACHED RECEIPT). THE TRUCK DROVE WITHOUT ISSUE UNTIL THIS INCIDENT. I DIDN'T THINK THIS WAS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT DID NOT HAPPEN AT HIGH SPEED. NOW, I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY. FINALLY, THE DEALER EXPLAINS THAT THERE ARE MULTIPLE ISSUES THAT CAN CAUSE THIS MALFUNCTION AND THEY ARE NOW COMPLETING ANOTHER $600+ REPAIR, REPLACING MULTIPLE PARTS (REPAIR BILL NOT YET AVAILABLE). BASED ON THIS TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIR HISTORY, A CONSUMER IS NEVER GETTING A GUARANTEED PERMANENT FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. THIS BEGS THE OBVIOUS QUESTION, OF WHY IS THERE A DESIGNED MALFUNCTION THAT JEOPARDIZES SAFETY IN THIS MANNER? PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

EXTREME RUST ON UNDERCARRIAGE HAD BROKEN SUSPENSION, BRAKE LINES, FUEL LINES, FRAME INTEGRITY

THE DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED IN TWO PLACES. THE VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT WHEN NOT IN USE. I AM CONCERNED THAT DASHBOARD PIECES MAY INJURE THE DRIVER OR PASSENGERS DURING A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.

CRACKED DASH BY PASSENGER AIRBAG! IF I WAS TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND MY PASSENGER AIRBAG GOES OFF MY PASSENGER IS MOST LIKELY GOING TO BE HIT WITH CRACKED DASH PIECES AS WELL.

MY CONCERN IS WITH THE TAKATA INFLATORS AND POTENTIAL SHRAPNEL PRODUCED FROM THE ROTTING DASHBOARD BECOMING AIRBORNE DURING AN ACCIDENT. THERE IS A WEBSITE THAT SHOWS THE MAJORITY OF THESE GM DASHBOARDS ARE DEFECTIVE AND FALLING APART BEYOND COSMETIC APPEARANCE. WHAT KIND OF SAFETY TESTING HAS BEEN DONE IN RELATION TO CRACKED DASHBOARDS CAUSING INJURIES? THERE SHOULD BE A SOLUTION TO THE TAKATA INFLATOR ISSUE AND A RECALL ON GM CRACKED PLASTIC DASHBOARDS. IT IS PAST AUGUST OF 2017 AND I HAVE HEARD NOTHING REGARDING THE AIRBAG ISSUE SOLUTION. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND STATED THAT, DUE TO THE WARRANTY EXPIRING, THEY WERE UNABLE TO ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 178,000.

THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKING IN SEVERAL PLACES. NAMELY ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AND NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. THERE WAS NO STRESS OR IMPACTS TO THE DASH THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE CRACKING. THE MANNER AND LOCATIONS OF THE CRACKS COULD CAUSE THE DASH TO FRAGMENT AND CAUSE INJURIES TO OCCUPANTS IN THE EVENT OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE DASH CRACKED. THE DASH HAS CRACKED IN FRONT OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND THE CRACK GOES INTO THE AIRBAG SECTION. AS I DRIVE, THE WHOLE DASHBOARD BOUNCES UP AND DOWN AS IT IS NOW UNSTABLE. THIS IS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT MANY OTHER DRIVERS HAVE REPORTED ONLINE. A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH BRINGS IT UP. IT WILL COST OVER $900 PLUS THE COST OF A WHOLE NEW DASHBOARD TO GET THIS FIXED AND THAT IS A QUOTE FROM AN INDEPENDENT, VERY ECONOMICAL REPAIR SHOP (NON-DEALERSHIP). I CANNOT AFFORD THIS AND WILL TRY TO USE TAPE. HOPEFULLY THE DASHBOARD DOESN'T BOUNCE OFF WHEN I'M DRIVING AND HOPEFULLY THE AIRBAG DOESN'T GO OFF. PLEASE SERIOUSLY CONSIDER A RECALL ON THIS. IT CRACKED ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO AND I ALMOST DIDN'T ENTER THIS CLAIM ON HERE. I TOLD MY DEALER, BUT THEY DIDN'T PURSUE IT FURTHER. IMAGINE ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO OR WHO TO TELL. THANKS FOR YOU HELP.

TAKATA RECALL. WAS CHECKED BY DEALERSHIP OVER 6 MONTHS AGO AND EVERYDAY I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE WITH THESE AIR BAGS PUTS MY FAMILY AT RISK. I WAS TOLD THESE PARTS WERE ORDERED TO FIX MY VEHICLE BUT HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ELSE. I'M VERY WORRIED THAT AT ANY MOMENT THESE AIR BAGS COULD GO OFF.

VEHICLE SHUTS OFF THEN TURNS BACK ON RANDOMLY WHEN DRIVING DOOR LOCKS POP UP AND DOWN. VEHICLE LOOSES ALL POWER

3 CRACKS ON DASH! 1 ON CORNER OF AIR BAG AND OTHER 2 ABOVE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED IN 2 LOCATIONS, ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG, POSSIBLE DANGER FOR PLASTIC PIECES DURING AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

UPPER DASHBOARD CRACKED ALONG AIRBAG LOCATION ON PASSENGER SIDE - TOP LEFT CORNER OF AIR BAG. CAR WAS PARKED, CRACK WAS JUST THERE WHEN I ENTERED THE VEHICLE ONE MORNING...NOT JUST ONCE BUT TWICE. APPARENTLY THE DASHBOARD CRACKS JUST AFTER THE THIRD YEAR AND RE-OCCURS WITH REPLACEMENT DASHBOARDS AS WELL (ALL DASHBOARDS ARE DEFECTIVE, INCLUDING THE REPLACEMENTS). NOTE: EXACT SAME CRACK AND LOCATION AS MANY OTHERS REPORTED ON FACEBOOK GROUP FORUM PAGE (07-13 GM CRACKED DASH SAFETY HAZARD FOR ALL TRUCKS).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE AIR BAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO YATES BUICK GMC (13845 W TEST DR, GOODYEAR, AZ 85338) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A CRIMPED WIRE LEADING TO THE AIR BAG HAD CAUSED A SHORT, AND THE WIRE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT IF THE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AFTER THE REPAIR, THE AIR BAG WOULD ALSO NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE THE AIR BAG AT A REDUCED COST. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,500.

THE DASHBOARD CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AS WELL AS THE STEERING WHEEL FOR NO REASON...WORRIED THAT IF THE AIRBAG GOES OFF THE DASH WILL BREAK APART AND CAUSING INJURIES. 3 OF US AT WORK THAT OWN A GMC/CHEVY PRODUCT IN THIS AGE RANGE HAS THE SAME CRACKS IN THE SAME PLACES. MY DASH CRACKED OVERNIGHT WHILE SITTING IN A GARAGE. THE AIR TEMPS WERE IN THE 60'S SO COULD NOT BE BECAUSE OF HEAT OR COLD. THE REPAIR FOR THE CRACKED DASH WAS A LITTLE OVER $1200.

MY DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND ON TOP OF THE DRIVERSIDE DASH. I AM AFRAID THAT THE CRACKS AROUND THE AIRBAG ARE A SAFETY HAZARD FOR MY FAMILY. BOTH CRACKS ARE GROWING RAPIDLY. VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 44,000 MILES AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.

DASH IS CRACKED ALONG SIDE OF PASSENGER AIR BAG AND ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL ON DASH.

DASH PANEL CRACK NEAR PASSENGER AIRBAG. THIS IS THE SECOND DASH THAT HAS BEEN PLACED IN THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST DASH WAS REPLACED ON 07/23/2013 AT 31,093 MILES. THE REPLACED DASH CRACKED WHILE STATIONARY ON 05/28/2017 AT 73,197 MILES. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2007-2013 GMC VEHICLES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC DENALI. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD CRACKED WHERE THE AIR BAG WAS LOCATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, BUT IT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

DASHBOARD CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES INCLUDING MOUNTING TAB.

DASHBOARD CRACKING ALONG THE CONSOLE AND AROUND THE AIRBAG. SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT FLAW IN THE PRODCT USED FOR THE DASHBOARD

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE.

UPPER DASH BOARD CRACKING AROUND PASSENGER AIRBAG.

DASHBOARD CRACKED BY PASSENGER AIRBAG, AND BY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, AND BY THE CENTER SPEAKER . CONCERNED FOR MY FAMILY SAFTY AND THE DEPLOYMENT OF AIR BAG AND PIECES BEING DASH IMPALING FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

THE 2010 GMC SIERRA LD 1500 HAD MULTIPLE PREMATURE FAILURES ASSOCIATED WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE FAILURE WERE PERTAINING TO THE RADIO ASSOCIATED WITH AN INTERNAL SHORT FROM THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL AND THE DRIVERS SIDE ELECTRONIC FUNCTION PANEL. MONTHS AFTER OWNING THE VEHICLE, A FAILURE PROGRESSED IN WHICH THE DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO USE THE FUNCTION BUTTONS FOR THE WINDOWS AND UNABLE TO LOCK OR UNLOCK THE DOORS FROM THE ELECTRONIC FUNCTION PANEL UNLESS USING THE KEY FOB TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE DOORS. ONLY THE FRONT PASSENGER AND THE REAR PASSENGERS MAY WIND THE WINDOWS DOWN DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE DRIVER WAS ONLY ABLE TO WIND THE WINDOW DOWN ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DUE TO THE FAILURE. IN ADDITION, THE AUX FUNCTION SHORTED PREMATURELY SO WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ATTACH A DEVICE, IT MAY OR MAY NOT CONNECT DUE TO AN INTERNAL ELECTRICAL SHORT IN WHICH IT MAY NOT RECOGNIZE THE DEVICE (PHONE, MP3, TABLET OR IPAD/IPOD). AN ABNORMAL NOISE PROGRESSED FROM THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK AND UPON A MECHANICS INSPECTION, IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE UPPER CONTROL ARM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW SWITCH PANEL AND RECOMMENDED TAKING THE VEHICLE FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTING ON THE INTERNAL ELECTRICAL FAILURES. THERE WAS ALSO PROGRESSION OF PREMATURE RUST UNDER THE FRAME IN WHICH THE MECHANIC RECOMMENDED COATING THE FRAME TO PREVENT ANY FURTHER RUSTING UNDER THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TO BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR FURTHER TESTING AND DIAGNOSIS. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

CRACKED DASHBOARD NEAR PASSENGER AIRBAG.

TAKATA RECALL - I WOULD LIKE TO SELL MY VEHICLE, BUT I CAN NOT DUE TO THIS RECALL THAT CAN NOT BE FIXED. WHAT CAN I DO?

TAKATA RECALL - NHTSA RECALL #16V381 CALLED THE GM CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER TOLL-FREE LINE IN JULY 2016, THEY RECOMMENDED ME TO TAKE MY VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST GMC DEALER. TOOK MY TRUCK TO POWELL WATSON GMC DEALER IN LAREDO, TEXAS ON JULY 2016 AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT GM HAD NOT YET FIGURED OUT A REPLACEMENT PART AND THAT A REPLACEMENT PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE AT THE TIME. AGAIN ON JAN 2, 2017, I TOOK MY TRUCK TO THE SAME DEALER FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND THEY RESPONDED TO ME THAT THERE WAS NO CURE FOR THE SAFETY AIR BAG ISSUE THAT MY TRUCK WAS BEING BROUGHT IN. THE GMC DEALER WAS NOT GIVING ME ETA ON THE REPLACEMENT PART. AND THE SAFETY CONCERN WAS NOT BEING RESOLVED. *TR

2010 GMC SIERRA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO STEERING WHEEL NOISES AND RECALL NOTICE 16V-381 ISSUES. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THERE WAS A WHISPERING SOUND COMING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL. *JB

DASH IS BROKEN ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE JUST TO THE LEFT OF WHERE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYS, AND THEN IT IS ALSO BROKEN ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE CENTER OF THE DASH IS LACKING SUPPORT AND IT VIBRATES BADLY AND HAS CAUSED THIS BREAKAGE.

MY DASH IS CRACKED ABOUT 2 INCHES LONG ON CORNER BY AIRBAG WHENT DO DEALER SAID NOTHING THEY CAN DO

PASSENGER SIDE DASH IS CRACKING RIGHT BEHIND THE AIR BAG. HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE FIXED IN FEBRUARY OR MARCH OF 2014. ALMOST 3 YEARS LATER THE NEW DASH IS CRACKED. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN 2007-2013 GM TRUCKS AND SUV'S. I JUST NOTICED THE CRACK YESTERDAY DECEMBER 11TH, 2016. THE CRACK HAS STARTED WITHIN THE LAST MONTH THAT I CAN RECALL.

CRACKED DASH BY PASSENGER AIRBAG AND OVER INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

DASH IS CRACKED AT FORWARD LEFT CORNER OF PASSENGER AIRBAG OPENING AND RIGHT FRONT CORNER OF INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AREA. EXTREME CONCERN THAT. IN THE CASE OF AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, PIECES OF THE PLASTIC DASH COULD PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG AND/OR BECOME FLYING SHRAPNEL/DEBRIS CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE PASSENGER.

THE DASH OF THE VEHICLE HAS CRACKED AROUND THE FORWARD EDGE OF THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG. I AM CONCERNED THAT PIECES OF THE DASH MAY BECOME MISSILE HAZARDS IN THE EVENT OF AN AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. THIS VEHICLE HAS ONLY BEEN SUBJECTED TO HIGHWAY MILEAGE. A CURSORY SEARCH OF THE INTERNET FOR CAUSES OF THE CRACK REVEALED THAT THIS IS AN ON-GOING ISSUE FOR THIS MODEL VEHICLE THAT IS BEING IGNORED BY THE GM CORPORATION.

AT ~ 54,000 MILES, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED INCREASED OIL CONSUMPTION AND LOST COMPRESSION ON TWO CYLINDERS. THIS VEHICLE HAS ONLY BEEN SUBJECTED TO HIGHWAY MILEAGE OF ABOUT 30 MILES/DAY ON AVERAGE AND HAS BEEN PROPERLY MAINTAINED. THE DAMAGE WAS TO THE EXTENT THAT CYLINDERS HAD TO BE REPLACED AND IT TOOK THE DEALERSHIP 25 DAYS TO REPAIR. A COWORKER HAD THE SAME ENGINE ISSUE ON HIS CHEVROLET SILVERADO WITH THE SAME 5.3 LITER ENGINE AT ~ 45,000 MILES. A CURSORY SEARCH OF THE INTERNET WILL REVEAL THAT THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF OWNERS COMMENTS THAT I HAVE RESEARCHED BELIEVE THAT IT IS CAUSED BY THE ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FAILING TO PROPERLY LUBRICATE COMPONENTS WHEN THE ENGINE CYCLES BETWEEN 4 AND 8 CYLINDERS. GM DISAVOWED ANY KNOWLEDGE OF THESE INCIDENTS WHEN CONTACTED. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF MY LOCAL GMC DEALERSHIP DISAVOWED ANY KNOWLEDGE ALSO ALTHOUGH I PRESENTED THEM OVER A DOZEN PAGES OF GM OWNERS GROUP WEB PAGES WITH DESCRIPTION OF THE SAME ENGINE FAILURES. HOWEVER, WHEN THEIR MECHANIC WAS QUESTIONED AS TO WHETHER HE WAS REPAIRING THE PROBLEM OR MERELY EXCHANGING DAMAGED PARTS, HE REPLIED "IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN, WE DO THIS ALL THE TIME". THIS TELLS ME THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT THE FIRST THAT THEY HAVE SEEN WITH THIS PROBLEM.

CRACKACK DASHBOARD

DASH IS CRACKING AGAIN. THE DASH WAS REPLACED UNDER THE ORIGINAL 3/36 WARRANTY AND NOW THE REPLACEMENT IS CRACKED. TWO CRACKS IN THE REPLACEMENT. ONE IN FRONT OF DRIVER AND ONE ON PASSENGER SIDE AT THE CORNER OF THE AIRBAG.

CRACK ON DASH ABOVE GAGES AS WELL AS ABOVE AIRBAG!!

CRACKED DASHBOARD. MY VEHICLE IS A 2010 WITH 43,000 MILES AND IS STORED IN A GARAGE MOST OF THE TIME (NOT A DAILY DRIVER). DASHBOARD CRACKED WHILE SITTING IN THE GARAGE. NO EXTREME CHANGES IN TEMPERATURE AS GARAGE IS HEATED.

TAKATA RECALL - IN ADDITION TO THE WIDESPREAD AIRBAG SAFETY ISSUE, I AM AMONG THE MANY, MANY OTHER 2010 GMC SIERRA TRUCK OWNERS WHO HAVE A CRACKED DASH. THE CRACK BEGINS ON THEFRONT, LEFT SIDE OF PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT, AND EXTENDS TO THE FRONT OF THE DASH (TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD). WITH SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS, COUPLED WITH THE FACT THAT THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BE A FATAL DEFECT, ONE WOULD THINK THAT AN NHTSA SPONSORED INVESTIGATION AND A RECALL WOULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN ISSUED BY NOW! I MEAN, IT'S ONLY BEEN 6 YEARS!!!!

DASH BOARD CRACKING FOR NO REASON. OUT OF WARRANTY. AFTER SEARCHING GOOGLE I SEE IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM...... ANY HELP ON GETTING THIS ISSUE FIXED

AFTER MONTHS OF PURCHASING MY VEHICLE WHICH IS A SIERRA DENALI MY DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED IN HALF. THE PURGE VALVE AND THE HIGH PRESSURE OIL SYNDICATOR SENSOR HAS BEEN CHANGED ABOUT 5 TIMES. WHEN I PUT VEHICLE IN MY TRUCK IT WON'T START ON ITS OWN THE STARTER JUST KEEPS TURNING OVER TO FIND OUT BY THAT THE SENSOR UNDER THE GAS TANK NEEDS TO BE CHANGED NOW. I HEARD THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THAT IS WHY THEY CHANGED THE SYSTEM ON IT, BUT MY TRUCK WAS NEVER CHANGED. THE DEALERSHIP ACTS LIKE MY COMPLAINTS WERE SENSELESS AND AFTER A YEAR MY WARRANTY HAS RAN OUT.

WIPERS WILL JUST BARELY MOVE WHEN TURNED ON. I PUT NEW MOTOR AND NEW SWITCH BUT NEITHER FIXED THE PROBLEM. I FOUND IT WAS THE WIPER TRANSMISSION (LINKAGE) WAS FROZE UP,RUSTED AND HAS WATER IN IT. ORDERED ONE FROM DORMAN AND THERE IS NONE IN STOCK. CANNOT FIND ONE ANYWHERE. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN ON A 2010 VEHICLE.

LETTER FROM CONGRESSMAN POLIQUIN ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT RE 2010 GMC SIERRA REAR LEAF SPRING RECALL. *SMD

TAKATA RECALL. DASHBOARD BEGAN CRACKING ON BOTH DRIVERS SIDE AND PASSENGERS SIDE. DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THEIR VEHICLES AND USED TO HAVE A SOLUTION IN PLACE WHERE THE CUSTOMER WOULD PAY $100 AND THE MANUFACTURER WOULD PAY THE REST TO HAVE IT REPLACES BUT HAD SINCE DONE AWAY WITH THAT DEAL. I IMAGINE CAUSE IT WAS COSTING THEM MORE THAN THEY HAD THOUGHT. ASKED IF MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WOULD COVER IT AND AFTER SPEAKING TO A REPRESENTATIVE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ALSO DID NOT COVER THIS DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

THE DASH IS CRACKED AT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND POSES A SAFETY ISSUED IN THE EVENT OF DEPLOYMENT. AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT COULD CAUSE PLASTIC SHARDS TO BE PROPELLED CAUSING INJURY.

TAKATA RECALL, I HAVE RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE ON MY TRUCK AND HAVE CALLED THREE DEALERSHIPS BUT NO ONE IS WILLING TO HELP WITH A LOANER UNTIL REPAIRS CAN BE MADE. THEY ALL SAY MY VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE. I UNDERSTAND HUMIDITY PLAYS A ROLL IN THE AIR BAGS. I LIVE IN MENA AR. WE GET BETWEEN 50 AND 60 INCHES OF RAIN YEARLY WITH HIGH HUMIDITY AND AFTER 5 + YEARS LIVING HERE I HAVE A VERY LARGE CONCERN FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY. I DO NOT WANT TO PUT THEM AT RISK FOR INJURY OR POSSIBLE DEATH, BECAUSE OF A FAULTY AIR BAG. PLEASE CAN YOU HELP US GET A DRIVABLE VEHICLE UNTIL THEY CAN REPAIR OURS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE OPENING THE FRONT DRIVER DOOR, THE HANDLE FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKING AND PARTICULARLY AROUND THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. THERE IS NO REAL WAY TO REPAIR THIS. WHEN WE SPEAK TO GM DEALERSHIPS, THEY TELL YOU THEY KNOW IT IS A PROBLEM AND ARE WILLING TO REPLACE THE DASH BUT THEY WILL CHARGE EXORBITANT AMOUNTS TO DO SO. THE SECOND PROBLEM IS THAT THE DOOR HANDLES ARE NOT SAFE. ONE OF THE REAR DOOR HANDLES HAS ALREADY BROKEN. IF YOU PULL ON THEM JUST THE SLIGHTEST BIT TOO HARD, THEY CRACK ON THE INSIDE, CAUSING THE HANDLE TO FALL OFF AND BE INOPERATIVE. ONCE AGAIN, GM IS AWARE OF THE FAULTY PARTS BUT WILL NOT RECALL ON THIS MATTER. BOTH OF THESE ISSUES ARE SAFETY CONCERNS AND ARE WIDESPREAD. I KNOW THIS TO BE TRUE BECAUSE ONCE MY DASH STARTED CRACKING, I LOOKED ONLINE TO SEE IF OTHERS WERE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. SURE ENOUGH, I LEARNED THAT THIS IS VERY WIDE SPREAD. THERE ARE EVEN AFTERMARKET COMPANIES THAT HAVE STARTED TO MAKE PLASTIC DASH COVERS TO FIT DIRECTLY OVER OUR DASHBOARDS JUST BECAUSE IT IS SO WIDESPREAD. GM MUST RECALL THESE TWO DEFECTS. KINDLY INVESTIGATE?

DASH CRACKED UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS REPLACED IMMEDIATELY BY THE DEALER (HOWARD BENTLEY IN ALBERTVILLE,AL). REPLACEMENT DASH HAS CRACKED AGAIN. MY CONCERN IS THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH CERTAIN GM MODELS AND IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH THE PIECES OF COMPROMISED DASH WILL BECOME A PROJECTILE INSIDE THE VEHICLE.

NOTICED A CRACK DEVELOPED IN THE DASH, AT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SEAM, SHORTLY AFTER THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY ENDED. STILL HAD ROUGHLY A YEAR LEFT ON THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY WHEN THE ISSUE OCCURRED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL OR ANYTHING THEY COULD DO, BUT ALSO STATED THAT THEY HAD SEEN MANY TRUCKS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. 3 YEARS OLD AND THE DASH HAS ALREADY CRACKING??? CONCERNED THERE MAY BE AN ISSUE, IF THE AIRBAG EVER HAS TO DEPLOY. WOULD HAVE REPORTED IT SOONER, IF I KNEW ABOUT THIS SIGHT.

CRACKED DASH LEFT TOP CORNER OF PASSENGER AIR BAG AREA. SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE ON HERE. REPLACED DRIVERS SIDE SEAT MOTOR AT$132. REPLACED DRIVERS SIDE REAR WINDOW REGULATOR AT $165 WITH LABOR AT $60. REPLACED BOTH DOOR HANDLES AT $89 WITH LABOR AT $60. HAD TO RENT A CAR FOR 4 DAYS IN THE AMOUNT OF $285. THIS ALL HAPPENED IN NOV. AND DEC. OF 2015. NONE OF WHICH IS COVERED BY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY PURCHASED FROM DEALER. ALSO THE PAINT IS BUBBLING AROUND THE REAR CARGO LIGHT. ALSO NOT COVERED UNDER MY "PAINT WARRANTY". AT THE TIME OF ALL THIS HAPPENING WE HAD LESS THAN 65,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE.

CRACKED DASH ON OUR 2010 GMC SIERRA. THERE IS A SMALLER CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND A VERY LARGE CRACK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AND IT KEEPS GETTING BIGGER. THE BIG CRACK ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL RATTLES A LOT WHILE DRIVING AND VERY IRRITATING. THE BIGGEST ISSUE WE HAVE REGARDS SAFETY. IF WE WERE IN A WRECK AND THE AIRBAGS WOULD DEPLOY WITH THE DASH CRACKED THAT BAD, WE FEAR THAT IT WOULD SHATTER IN MANY PIECES. WE HAVE TAKEN VERY GOOD CARE OF THE TRUCK, IT IS GARAGE KEPT AND A SUN SHIELD USED WHEN PARKED IN THE SUN. IT HAS 58,000 MILES AND IS A 2010. THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECT IN THE DESIGN AND BELIEVE THAT GM SHOULD REPLACE IT, BUT AFTER MANY CALLS TO GM DIRECTLY, THEY REFUSE TO PAY FOR IT TO BE REPLACED.

THE DASH ON MY TRUCK BEGAN CRACKING AT AROUND 36,000 MILES AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD BE DONE AS MY TRUCK WAS OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY COVERAGE. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD MANY ADDITIONAL CRACKS AND HAVE HEARD THAT THE CRACKED DASH ENDS UP BREAKING APART AND BECOMING SHRAPNEL IN THE VEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE ON THESE VEHICLES AND I THINK GM SHOULD OFFER RECALL AND INITIATE A FREE OR REDUCED COST REPLACEMENT OF THESE DASH PANELS TO PREVENT INJURIES.

CRACK ON DASH BOARD NXT TO AIRBAG CONTACTED GMC BUT THEY HAVE NOT TAKEN CARE OF THE MATTER IM CONCERN IF AIRBAG DEPLOYS SHRAPNEL WILL FLY INTO MY YOUNG CHILD FACE I NEED THIS TAKEN CARE VERY IMPORTANT MATTER THANKS.

MULTIPLE CRACKS ON DASHBOARD. THE FIRST TWO (2) CRACKS APPEARED ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO (TRUCK ONLY THREE YEARS OLD AT THAT TIME) LOCATED ON PASSENGER SIDE OF DASH - ABOVE WHERE GLOVE BOX ENDS. JUST FOUND ANOTHER CRACK THIS PAST WEEKEND WHEN CLEANING DASH. (TRUCK IS NOW 6 YRS OLD - JUST FINISHED PAYING IT OFF!!) THIS ONE IS LOCATED ON LEFT SIDE OF DRIVER SIDE, ABOUT HALF WAY BACK. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE DASH IS NOW COMPROMISED. IN THE EVENT THE AIRBAGS ARE DEPLOYED, MY CONCERNS ARE THAT THE AIRBAGS MAY NOT COME OUT, COME OUT IMPROPERLY DUE TO THE CRACKS, OR THAT THERE MAY BE ADDITIONAL DASH PARTS BECOMING A PROJECTILE THAT COULD CAUSE MORE HARM. IN READING THIS SITE IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BEFORE IT CAUSES A MAJOR PROBLEM. THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN KEPT IN PARTIAL SHADE AND HAS ALWAYS HAD A SUNSCREEN IN PLACE WHEN NOT IN USE.

THE DASHBOARD OF 2010 GMC SIERRA DENALI IS CRACKING AROUND THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, AND ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THE REASON BEHIND THIS IS UNKNOWN TO ME. I RARELY DRIVE MY TRUCK, AND HAVE NOT BEEN IN ANY COLLISIONS. THE CRACKS CONTINUE TO GROW DUE TO THE STRESS ON THE DASH WHILE DRIVING (I.E. THE SEPARATED PIECES MOVE UP AND DOWN DUE DEPENDING THE ROAD CONDITIONS).

A CRACK HAS RECENTLY APPEARED IN THE DASH FOR NO REASON.

THE DOOR CABLE

CRACKED DASH BETWEEN PASSENGER AIR BAG AND DEFROSTER, CREATED A RATTLE SERVICE MANGER AT GAY GMC SAID THEY ALL CRACK $800 BUT THEY WOULD REPLACE FOR $400 I HAVE EXTENDED COVERAGE $100 DEDUCTIBLE GMC HAS A BIG PROBLEM OF PRODUCT DEFECT NOT FROM WEAR. I WANT IT REPLACED AT NO COST

I CONTACTED GMC ON 10/26/2015 TO INFORM THEM THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD ON THE UPPER LEFT SIDE OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. THE FIRST TIME BRIAN HARRIS GMC, THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE TRUCK FROM, REPLACED THE DASHBOARD UNDER THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY. I ALSO TOLD ANDRE AT GMC I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE ALL 4 DOOR HANDLES AND NOW THE 2 BACK DOOR HANDLES ARE BROKEN AGAIN. ANDRE TOLD ME TO HAVE THE DEALER ASSES THE PROBLEM. DAVID, THE SERVICE REP. AT BRIAN HARRIS SAID THEY WOULD REPLACE THE DOOR HANDLES UNDER MY EXTENDED FACTORY WARRANTY, AND WAIVE THE DEDUCTIBLE, BUT GMC WILL NOT COVER THE DASHBOARD. I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE DASHBOARD WAS NOT COVERED AND WAS TOLD IT WAS GMC"S OPTION. I DISAGREED AND EXPLAINED THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. WHAT IF THE AIRBAG DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY OR NOT FUNCTION AT ALL. IF IT DOES DEPLOY WILL IT THROW SHARDS OF PLASTIC AND INJURE THE PEOPLE IN THE TRUCK? HE SAID HE UNDERSTOOD BUT THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO. SO I NOW HAVE A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD OF MY TRUCK FOR THE SECOND TIME. WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

THE TRUCK WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN I GOT IN AND STARTED THE IGNITION. AS SOON AS I DID, THE PLASTIC DASHBOARD CRACKED AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. ONE WEEK LATER, SAME SITUATION, AS I STARTED THE IGNITION, THE DASH CRACKED ABOVE THE DRIVER'S SIDE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CRACKS HAVE CONTINUED TO GROW SINCE INITIALLY APPEARING. I HAVE A SAFETY CONCERN THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY AS INTENDED SINCE THE INTEGRITY OF THE DASHBOARD HAS FAILED, AND FURTHER CONCERN THAT IF THE AIR BAGS DO DEPLOY, THAT THE DASH HAS BECOME SO BRITTLE THAT THERE WILL BE SHARP CHARDS OF PLASTIC IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AS THE DASH IS SHATTERED INTO PIECES FROM THE IMPACT OF A CRASH.

ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON - TOOK TO DEALER - WAS TOLD IT WAS PO455 CODE EVAP FAILURE - EVAP VENT VALVE STUCK OPEN. WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT NOT COVERED BY GMC - COST $501.17

DRIVERS SIDE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE - CHROME IS PEELING EDGES ARE SHARP CUT HAND OPENING DOOR

DASH HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES AND COULD BE A SAFETY CONCERN. EDGES ARE SHARP AND VIBRATE AS WELL.

DASHBOARD CRACKED.

THE DASH ON MY 2010 GMC SIERRA SLT CRACKED IN TWO PLACES. ONE IS RIGHT ON THE PASSENGER AIRBAG TO THE EDGE OF THE DASHBOARD. TWO IS FROM THE EDGE OF THE DASH UP TO THE GAGE CLUSTER HUMP. THESE CRACKS HAPPENED ON A 4 YEAR OLD TRUCK THAT HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF. I ALWAYS HAVE A SUN VISOR UP WHEN PARKED OUTSIDE. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO GM AND HAD A DEALER TAKE A LOOK AT IT. THE SERVICE GUY SAID THAT HE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY REPLACED HIS DASH FOR FREE. THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WASN'T A SAFETY CONCERN AND GM WOULD COVER $300 OF THE REPAIRS. THE REPAIRS WERE GOING TO COST AROUND $1000. THIS IS A VERY COMMON DESIGN FLAW THAT GM DOES NOT WANT TAKE CARE OF. I FEEL THAT THIS COULD BE SAFELY CONCERN IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS AND THE DASH SHOOTS SHARP PLASTIC FROM A FAULTY DASH ALL OVER ME OR MY FAMILY.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A STEEP HILL, LOST ENGINE POWER AND TRUCK SPEED WAS DRAMATICALLY REDUCED. DASH WARNING "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" DISPLAYED. COULD NOT ACCELERATE. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THIS SITUATION CAUSED DIFFICULTY CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE.

DASH CRACKED OVER DRIVER SIDE INSTRUMENT PANEL; I NOTICED THIS IN THE FIRST WEEK OR TWO OF DECEMBER, 2015. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AND I DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES TO PAY TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE EQUIPMENT. TRUCK IS ALWAYS PARKED UNDER COVER AND NEVER EXPOSED TO DIRECT EXTREME TEMPERATURES FOR ANY EXTENDED PERIODS. TRUCK HAS APPROX. 79,000 MILES AND IS VERY WELL MAINTAINED. IN ADDITION TO THE DASH CRACKING, THE LEATHER DRIVER SEAT IS RIPPING AND APPEARS TO BE CAUSED BY THE SEAT BELT NOT RETRACTING PROPERLY. THIS WAS NOTICED ABOUT A WEEK AFTER I NOTICED THE CRACKED DASH. I AM THE ONLY DRIVER, AM 67 YEARS OLD, DON'T WEAR ANYTHING SHARP ON MY CLOTHING THAT WOULD DAMAGE MY SEAT. SURELY THE INTERIOR OF THIS TRUCK SHOULD LAST LONGER THAN THE TIRES AND I BELIEVE GM SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.

ENGINE LIFTER ISSUE/LOW OIL PRESSURE PROBLEM RELATES TO HAVING THE LIFTERS REPLACED. THE 5.3 VORTEC ENGINE HAS AFM (ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT). DEALER WANTS $5800 TO FIX THE LIFTER ISSUE, WHILE ESTIMATES TO REPLACE THE ENGINE WITH NECESSARY PARTS RUNS BETWEEN $6900 AND $7200. IS THIS A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM? TRUCK HAS 52,000 MILES AND HAS BEEN SERVICED AT REGULAR INTERVALS. TRUCK WAS PARKED WHEN THE ISSUE BECAME EVIDENT DURING THE STARTUP. TRUCK IS NOW AT THE DEALER (TOWED) AWAITING REPAIR.

HOOKED UP A TRAILER (FIRST TIME EVER), DISCOVERED THAT THE TRAILER LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING, CHECKED FUSES, FOUND A MELTED FUSE. FOUND A RECALL FOR SAME PROBLEM, HOWEVER IT IS VIN SPECIFIC AND VIN IS NOT COVERED. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP, AND REPORTED PROBLEM TO GMC, WAS TOLD TO REPORT IT HERE. ALSO FOUND A VIN SPECIFIC RECALL FOR THE DRIVER CONTROL BUTTON FOR THE PASSENGER WINDOW (SOMETIMES WORKS, SOMETIMES DOESN'T) AND AGAIN THIS VIN IS NOT COVERED.

THE DASH HAS CRACKED RIGHT ABOVE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG . THE TRUCK WAS CLEANED AND DETAILED ON WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 25TH 2015 , PARKED BACK IN THE GARAGE AND WHEN I LEFT IN IT FRIDAY NOVEMBER 27 , 2015 I NOTICED THE DASH WAS CRACKED . THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR ME SINCE IT IS THE PASSENGER AIR COMPARTMENT AND COULD RESULT IN FLYING DEBRIS FOR AN OCCUPANT INSIDE MY TRUCK .

'10711995'

2010 GAS LEAKING AROUND FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT. CONTACTED DEALER ABOUT RECALL NON BUT IT IS COMMON FOR THIS TRUCK ??? FUEL ? LEAKING ? FIRE? ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD ?? GM REPLACEMENT PARTS TO REPLACE RUSTED OUT SENDING UNIT $595 + LABOR @ $240 MILES @52000. THIS IS A SAFTY AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZZARD AND NEEDS A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE IS DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!

2010 SIERRA DENALI WITH 53K. 1ST DASH CRACK AT PASSENGER AIRBAG WITH APPROX 20K. 2ND DASH CRACK OVER STEERING COLUMN AT APPROX 40K. WE HAD TO STUFF A PIECE OF CARDBOARD IN THE DASH BECAUSE IT RATTLED SO BADLY. WE ALSO HAVE: 1. PASSENGER DOOR HANDLE CHROME PEELING AND SHARP ENOUGH TO CUT 2. A/C CONTROL BUTTONS WORN OFF 3. BOTH FRONT HEAT/COOLED SEATS HAVE STOPPED WORKING 4. RUNNING BOARD STEPS CRACKED ON BOTH SIDES 5. TAIL GATE WILL NOT STAY CLOSED UNLESS LOCKED.

DASH CRACKED FROM CORNER OF NEAR AIRBAG ON PASSENGER SIDE. NO IMPACT OR ANYTHING TO CAUSE CRACK.

DASH HAS CRACKED BEHIND GAUGE CLUSTER ON DRIVER SIDE AND AIR BAG ON PASSENGER SIDE.

A CRACK HAS FORMED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE DASH BOARD NEAR THE AIR BAG. THIS SHOULD NOT OCCUR IN A VEHICLE OF THIS AGE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WITHOUT ANY MENTION OR ACTION TO REPAIR. I WILL BE CONTACTING THEM ON MONDAY ABOUT COVERING THE REPAIR. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DESIGN ISSUE AND THE DASH SHOULD BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. IN THE MONTH OF JUNE 2015, I HAD TO HAVE MY MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS IN JANUARY 2015 OF THIS YEAR AND I FILLED THE MASTER CYLINDER WITH FLUID BECAUSE OF THE BRAKE WARNING SYSTEM CAME ON AND THE BRAKE FLUID IN THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS AT THE MINIMUM LEVEL. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED TAT IT COULD BE THE RESULT OF LOW BRAKES AND TO KEEP AN EYE ON IT AND IF IT LOOSE BRAKE FLUID TO BRING IT IN.WHEN IT OCCUR AGAIN IN JUNE 2015, I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER. IT WAS DETERMINE THAT THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER WAS LEAKING INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER CAUSING THE WARNING LIKES ON THE DASH TO ILLUMINATE. AT JUST OVER 40,000 MILES, THIS SHOULD BE COVER BY GM AS A WARRANTY ITEM. I BELIEVE I AM DUE A REFUND.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT OBSERVED A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD NEAR THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 64,500.

PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WENT ON INDICATING THAT THE AIR BAG WAS NOT FUNCTIONAL. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP AND THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THEN TOOK IT TO A GMC DEALER AND THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WAS DUE TO LOSS OF POWER TO THE AIR BAG MODULE ATTRIBUTED TO CORROSION WITHIN THE UNDER-HOOD FUSE BLOCK.

DURING A CRASH AT HIGH SPEEDS AND FRONTAL IMPACT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WAS LIFE FLIGHTED TO THE HOSPITAL AND SUFFERED LIFE ALTERING INJURIES. MY 2 KIDS WERE ALSO IN THE VEHICLE AND SUSTAINED INJURIES WHICH THEY ARE STILL BEING TREATED FOR.

VEHICLE HAS CRACKED DASH IN AREA OF PASSENGER AIR BAG WHICH COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE SHRAPNEL IF AIRBAGS ARE DEPLOYED. THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON AND THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THIS CRACK IN THE EXACT SAME AREA AS MINE. CONTACTED GM AND THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE A PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE REAR DRIVER SIDE LEAF SPRING FRACTURED AND PUNCTURED A TIRE AFTER DRIVING OVER A POTHOLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER AND REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,000.

AROUND 37,000 MILES A CRACK APPEARED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH, AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THERE ARE NOW 3 CRACKS AROUND THE AIRBAG AND THESE CRACKS COULD POTENTIALLY RESULT IN A TEAR IN THE AIRBAG DURING DEPLOYMENT, RENDERING THE AIRBAG INEFFECTIVE IN PREVENTING INJURY DURING AN ACCIDENT. FROM ONLINE SEARCHES, IT APPEARS THIS MIGHT HAVE BEEN A DESIGN ISSUE ON THE 2010 MODEL THAT WAS FIXED STARTING WITH THE 2011 TRUCKS. THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THERE IS NO RECALL. I FEEL THAT DUE TO THE POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS, THE DASHES FOR THIS MODEL YEAR OF SIERRA SHOULD BE FIXED BY GM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2010 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHORTLY AFTER PARKING, THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE. A FIRE REPORT WAS FILED AND NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED BACK TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

3 YEARS AGO WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS STILL "UNDER BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY" A CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH APPEARED AT THE UPPER LEFT CORNER OF WHERE THE PLATE IS THAT COVERS THE AIRBAG. MUNDAY CHEVROLET IN SPRING TEXAS TOLD ME THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE "WARRANTY" BUT THEY WOULD REPLACE IT FOR A REDUCED COST OF $1,000. GM IS NOT GETTING ANOTHER BAIL OUT FROM ME. THE SINGLE CRACK DEVELOPED A SECONDARY CRACK RESULTING IN A "Y" SHAPED CRACK. ABOUT A WEEK AGO THE AREA IN THE "TOP" OF THE "Y" FELL OUT SO NOW THERE IS A HOLE AND A CRACK. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE AND NOT ONLY DOES THIS UNFAIRLY DEVALUE MY INVESTMENT BECAUSE GMC USED INFERIOR, CHEAP MATERIALS, MOST IMPORTANTLY IT IS NOT SAFE. IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS, THERE IS AN INCREASED LIKELIHOOD THAT THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD SPLINTERS INTO SHARP DEADLY PROJECTILES. THIS COMPANY HAS A HISTORY OF COVERING UP INFERIOR PRODUCTS AND POOR DECISIONS RESULTING IN LOSS OF LIFE AND FINANCIAL LOSS. GM CONTINUES TO EXPECT CUSTOMERS AND TAXPAYERS TO SUFFER FOR THEIR LACK OF QUALITY AND POOR DECISIONS. GM NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND REPLACE DANGEROUS AND DEFECTIVE DASHBOARDS OR THEY WILL CONTINUE TO CUT CORNERS AND HIDE ISSUES. PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW GM TO EXPLOIT HARD WORKING FAMILIES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE ACTIVATED AND FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE CONTACT ENGAGED THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS AND CONTINUED DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

WE WERE DRIVING ON A 2 LANE HIGHWAY GOING 60MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TRUCK WENT TO 20MPH. THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME ALMOST REAR ENDED ME. I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND SAW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON, AND ALSO THERE WERE OTHER MESSAGES SAYING THAT TRACTION CONTROL WAS OUT, VEHICLE STABILITY WAS OUT, ETC. I WAS A COUPLE OF MILES AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP SO I CALLED THEM. LUCKILY THEY WERE OPEN ON SATURDAY. I TOOK IT THERE AND HAD THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED. THE TRUCK HAS ONLY 18,500 MILES ON IT. THE SERVICE MAN SAID THERE WERE NO RECALLS OR SERVICE BULLETINS FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE LITTLE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE SHOWS THAT MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDERGOING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED THAT THE TRANSMISSION LINES WERE LEAKING. AS A RESULT, THE TRANSMISSION LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,500.

THE FIRST TIME WAS NOV.2014 WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SOLID ALONG WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED AND THE ENGINE VIBRATED AND WOULD NOT GO OVER 20 MPH.I LEFT THE TRUCK PARKED FOR 3 DAYS AND WHEN CRANKED THE TRUCK ALL LIGHTS WERE OFF AND THE TRUCK RAN FINE.ONCE IN DEC. 2014 AND ONCE IN JAN.2015 THE SOLID CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON BUT THE TRUCK RAN FINE AND AFTER A FEW DAYS WENT OFF. THE FIRST WEEK OF FEB. 2015 THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED AND ENGINE VIBRATION. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE SLOWLY ONLY TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC THAT I NORMALLY GO TO BECAUSE HE WAS CLOSER THAN THE DEALERSHIP AND I WANTED IT CHECK IMMEDIATELY SINCE THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON.HIS CODES SHOWED THE THROTTLE BODY WITH SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.HE STATED HE LEFT THE CODES IN EVEN THOUGH THE WARNING LIGHTS WENT OFF BECAUSE HE THOUGHT THIS WORK WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANTED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING WEEK AND WHEN I TOLD THEM ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS HAD WENT OFF THEY STATED IT WOULD PROBABLY BE A WASTE OF TIME TO CHECK ON THEIR COMPUTER. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT. ABOUT HOW YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN THIS WILL HAPPEN AND WHEN IT DOES YOU ARE BASICALLY STRANDED BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL BARELY MOVE. THE NEXT WEEK FEB.11, 2015 IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND ALL 3 TIMES I WAS LUCKY I WAS NOT IN ALOT OF TRAFFIC OR TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS OR ON A STEEP GRADE.IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A ACCIDENT. I HAD TO LEAVE THE TRUCK IN A PARKING LOT AND THE NEXT DAY TOOK IT BACK TO THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC.I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND AGAIN THEY WANTED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT AND THEY STATED THE WORK WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY SO MY MECHANIC CAME UP WITH THE SAME CODES AND FIXED THE PROBLEM.CALLED GM AND EXPLAINED THE UNSAFE SITUATION AND GOT NO CUSTOMER SERVICE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE SPUTTERED AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE ABOVE 20 MPH. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR CODES NEEDED TO BE RESET. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,500.

2010 GMC SIERRA CREW CAB PICK UP TRUCK. DASH PANEL CRACKED ON UPPER RIGHT CORNER OF PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. UPPER LEFT CORNER CRACKED A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER. GMC REFUSES TO ADMIT THAT THERE'S A PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH THE CRACKED DASH PANELS HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED ON SEVERAL DIFFERENT MESSAGE BOARD AND FACEBOOK GROUPS. *TR

ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING, DASH GAUGES BLANK. I MANAGED TO PULL OVER WITHOUT POWER BRAKES OR STEERING! AFTER A FEW MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO RESTART WITH "REDUCED ENGINE POWER, TRACTION CONTROL OFF, AND STABILITRAC" PROBLEMS DISPLAYED ON DASH. I WAS A MILE FROM HOME IN -10F TEMPS! I PULLED IT INTO MY SHOP. DTC CODE P2135 WHICH HAS TO DO WITH THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. THE DEALER HAS A 2 WEEK DELAY IN GETTING INTO THEIR GARAGE! I FOUND OUT THAT THE THROTTLE BODY/SENSOR IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. SO WITH THE COST OF A TOW (CAN'T TRUST THE TRUCK TO MAKE TO DEALER) PLUS THE PART COST, I WILL REPAIR IT MYSELF. THE REASON FOR THIS LETTER, I DISCOVERED THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER GMC TRUCK OWNERS. THEIR VEHICLE QUIT IN THE SAME MANNER. I THINK THAT "REDUCED POWER" IS NOT THE SAME AS NO POWER!!! I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO ME IF I WAS ON THE FREEWAY DURING RUSH HOURS??? BE PREPARED FOR SOME CREATIVE DRIVING! *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK SEEMED AS IF IT TURNED OFF, ALL THE GAUGES WENT DOWN APPEARING OF THE TRUCK WAS OFF AND NOT RUNNING. THE TRUCK WAS STILL RUNNING, BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT HAVE POWER OR ACCELERATION. CONTINUED TO DRIVE TILL I WAS AT A SAFETY ZONE. TURNED IT OFF AND DID NOT WANT TO START NO MORE I TOOK THE BATTERY CABLE OFF AND PUT IT BACK JUMP START IT AND EVERYTHING WENT BACK TO NORMAL. *JS

I WAS TRAVELING HOME FROM VACATION AND ABOUT 70 MILES AN HOUR IN MY 2010 GMC SIERRA AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY TRUCK REVVED UP AND MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. I ABOUT GOT HIT FROM BEHIND. I PULLED OVER AND THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD. I OPEN THE HOOD AND THERE'S TRANSMISSION FLUID FROM THE FRONT TO THE BACK UNDER THE TRUCK. ONE OF THE COOLING LINES RUBBED THE OTHER AND CHAFFED A HOLE. COST ME 150 DOLLARS IN TOWING FEES. GM DOESN'T WANT TO HONOR THEIR WARRANTY BECAUSE THEY REMOVED THIS PART OFF THEIR WARRANTY IN 2009. TRYING TO COVER UP THEIR MISTAKE .I CALLED GM PRIORITY CARE AND THEY HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO BECK AND MASTEN GM. THEY ARE TRYING TO CHARGE ME FOR THE REPAIRS WHEN ITS A DEFECT ON GM'S PART. MY QUESTION IS HOW MANY INNOCENT DRIVERS ARE GOING TO GO BANKRUPT PAYING FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION WHEN IT WAS GM'S MISTAKE IN DESIGN. OR EVEN WORSE HOW MANY WILL GET KILLED ON THE HIGHWAY. I THINK I'VE MADE MY POINT! *JS

THE DASH IS MY TRUCK HAS STARTED TO CRACK. FROM RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET I SEE THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON OCCURRENCE. THE DEALER SAID IT IS NOT COVERED ALTHOUGH I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. I AM UNSATISFIED WITH GM AND FEEL THIS CRACK DASH COULD BE A HAZARD IF AN ACCIDENT WERE TO OCCUR. I WOULD LOVE A COMPROMISE FROM GM TO AT LEAST OFFER TO PAY SOME OF THE COST OF REPLACEMENT, IF NOT ALL OF IT. *TR

ON 10/29/2014 I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH ODI NUMBER 10650997 ABOUT THE OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLES ON MY 2010 GMC SIERRA SINCE THREE OF THEM HAD BROKEN OFF SINCE DECEMBER 2013. THEN ON 11/6/2014, THE PASSENGER BACK DOOR HANDLE CAME LOOSE & IS PULLING OUT OF THE DOOR. THIS IS THE ONLY ONE OF THE DOOR HANDLES THAT HAS NOT BEEN PREVIOUSLY REPLACED. ALL OF THE DOOR HANDLE FAILURES HAVE OCCURRED SINCE DECEMBER 2013. THIS PRESENTS A POTENTIAL HAZARD. IT HAS BEEN MY EXPERIENCE ON THE DOOR WITH BROKEN HANDLES THAT IF THE DOOR HANDLE COMES COMPLETE OFF, IT IS HARD TO GET THE DOOR TO LATCH PROPERLY CAUSING IT TO POP OPEN WHICH COULD EASILY HAPPEN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION PUTTING ANYONE SITTING BY THE DOOR IN HARM'S WAY. IT IS VERY DISCONCERTING TO ME THAT ALL FOUR DOOR HANDLES HAVE NOW FAILED. I WOULD DEFINITELY THINK THIS IS A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW WITH THESE VEHICLES. TWO OF THE HANDLES WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY HOWEVER, THE COST TO REPLACE THE REMAINING TWO IS $200+ EACH. TO DATE GMC IS NOT WILLING TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. *TR

IN DECEMBER 2013 THE PASSENGER EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE CAME OFF & A FEW DAYS LATER EXTERIOR DRIVER BACK DOOR HANDLE CAME OFF. THE DEALERSHIP DID REPLACE BOTH HANDLES UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, WHILE WE THERE ANOTHER MAN CAME IN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM ON HIS GMC SIERRA. IN OCTOBER 2014, THE EXTERIOR DRIVER DOOR HANDLE CAME OFF. DEALER REPLACING BUT CHARGING CUSTOMER $200+. SERVICE PERSON INDICATED THEY HAVE HAD NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE HANDLES ON GMC SIERRAS BREAKING, AS RECENT AS THE LAST MONTH OR SO. IN INTERNET SEARCH THIS SEEMS TO BE A PREVALENT PROBLEM WITH THE GMC SIERRA. OTHER CAR DEALERS HAVE TOLD US THAT THEY HAVE HEARD COMPLAINTS ON THIS ALSO. ALTHOUGH IT MAY NOT BE A CRITICAL SAFETY ISSUE, WHEN THE DRIVER DOOR HANDLE CAME OFF OUR VEHICLE, THE DOOR WOULD NOT LATCH PROPERLY WITHOUT SOME EFFORT. THIS COULD CAUSE AN EXTREME ISSUE IF THE DOOR DOES NOT LATCH. IF THE DRIVER OR ANY PASSENGER SITTING BY A DOOR ON WHICH THE HANDLE BROKE DOES NOT GET THE DOOR TO LATCH PROPERLY IT COULD EASILY FLY OPEN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING AND COULD BE CATASTROPHIC. *TR

ON OR ABOUT THAT DATE, DRIVING ABOUT 25 MILES ON RURAL ROADS AT SPEEDS FROM 45 TO 55 MPH, THE DAMPNESS IN THE AIR CAUSED CONDENSATION HAZE TO FORM ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDOW. I TURNED ON THE DEFROSTERS WHICH CLEARED OFF THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW SO I COULD SEE BUT THE PASSENGERS SIDE NEVER CLEARED AND I HAD 0 VISIBILITY TO ANYTHING ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE ROAD OR PULLING OUT FROM DRIVEWAYS OR ROADS ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO GET REPAIRED TO BE TOLD GM HAD A SERVICE BULLETIN ON THIS THAT SHOWED THEM HOW TO REPROGRAM THE SYSTEM TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. ALSO THIS VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH A REAR CAMERA SYSTEM THAT IS INTERMITTENT IN ITS OPERATION, SOMETIMES BLURRED IMAGES OR SOMETIMES BLANK COMPLETELY. THE DEALER DISCONNECTED AND RECONNECTED THE CAMERA SYSTEMS THINKING THE CONNECTION MIGHT HAVE AN ISSUE BY BEING CONTAMINATED,OXIDIZED, OR LOSS. NOT SURE IF RELATED BUT THE DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED MY RIGHT REAR SPEAKER SEVERAL TIMES CLAIMING THAT THE SPEAKER IS SEEING SHORTS AND/OR HIGHER POWER OR SHORTING INTERNALLY. BEING THIS IS MULTIPLE TIMES (3 OR 4 TIMES FOR THIS SAME REPAIR) WHAT OTHER ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PROBLEMS WILL I BE SEEING AND WILL ANY OF THESE LEAD TO FIRES OF ADDITIONAL SYSTEM DAMAGE. EVEN WITH THESE KNOW ISSUES AND SERVICE BULLETINS ISSUED ON THE BLOWER SYSTEM AS DOCUMENTED ON THE REPAIR INVOICE, WHILE KNOWING THAT LOSS OF VISION THROUGH THE WINDOW IS POSSIBLE, GM HAS NOT INITIATE ANY CAMPAIGN TO PROACTIVELY FIX THIS. ONLY AFTER THE PROBLEM OCCURS AND IF THE PERSON IS LUCKY TO AVOID ACCIDENTS WILL THEY ADDRESS THIS WHEN YOU COME INTO COMPLAIN ABOUT, BUT BY THAT TIME THEY HOPE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY SO THEY CAN CHARGE YOU. AFTER ALL IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITHOUT THIS SYSTEM WORKING PROPERLY SO PEOPLE WILL PAY TO GET THIS FIXED. *TR

THE DASH BOARD ON MY 2010 GMC HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL AREAS, INCLUDING AT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I HAVE STRONG CONCERNS THAT THE DASH WILL BREAK APART IN AN ACCIDENT IF THE AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY AND POSSIBLY INJURE OCCUPANTS IN THE CABIN. THE PLASTIC IS VERY BRITTLE AND COULD EASILY CUT SOMEONE. *TR

THERE ARE CRACKS ON DRIVERS SIDE DASH & AROUND AIR BAG ON PASSENGER SIDE. *TR

DEALER STATES THAT THE BRAKE MODULAR AND PLUG ARE NO GOOD. THE COST OF THE REPAIR WOULD BE $1200.00. THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WOULD COME ON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT EXTERIOR PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR HANDLE FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER TWO TIMES AND THE PLASTIC DOOR HANDLE WAS REPLACED EACH TIME. MOST RECENTLY THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000. UPDATED 10/02/2014*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS INVESTIGATE BY THE MANUFACTURER'S A REPORT WAS ISSUED ON 8/8/14. UPDATED 3/9/2015 *JS

I HAD THE OIL CHANGED AT THE DEALER ON THE FRIDAY PRIOR TO AUGUST 5, 2013 AND THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRING (AT THAT TIME) IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE. GOT IN THE TRUCK TO GO OVER TO MY FATHER'S HOUSE AND STOPPED AT A LOCAL GAS STATION THAT STILL DOES FULL SERVE (FOR A PENNY OR TWO HIGHER THAN THE SELF SERVE DOWN THE STREET). AS THE OWNER OF THE STATION WAS CLEANING MY FRONT WINDSHIELD HE ASK ME WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE DASH AND THAT IS WHEN I SAW IT. TWO LITTLE CRACKS FROM THE PASSENGER AIRBAG UNIT TO THE DEFROSTER VENTS AND ONE THAT WAS COMING STRAIGHT UP THE DRIVERS SIDE DASH HUMP (WHERE ALL THE GAUGES GO). I CALLED THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY AND THE SERVICE MANAGER ASK ME TO SEND PICTURES OF THE CRACKS AND THE ODOMETER, SO HE COULD SUBMIT TO GM. THE FINALLY REPLACED IT, THOUGH THE OWNER OF THE GMC/BUICK/CADILLAC DEALERSHIP SAID THAT IF THE WARRANTY HAD NOT COVERED IT THE DEALERSHIP WOULD AND MY UNDERSTANDING WAS THAT GM WANTED THE CRACKED DASH BACK OR AT LEAST THE BATCH NUMBER. *TR

30 MINUTES AFTER MY WIFE PARKED OUR 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500 PICK-UP IN OUR DETACHED GARAGE, WE HEARD A BOOM AND I RAN OUTSIDE TO SEE THE GMC CAB AND HOOD ON FIRE. I IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT, MY GOD MY WIFE WAS JUST IN THERE AND THERE IS NO WAY SHE COULD HAVE SURVIVED. I PROCEEDED TO CALL 911 AND ALL THE NEIGHBORS TO EVACUATE THEIR HOMES BECAUSE WE LIVE IN A VERY WOODED AREA AND I THOUGHT THE FIRE WOULD SPREAD. IT BURNED THE GMC, MY SUBURBAN, OUR PONTOON BOAT, OUR SONS CHEVY Z-71 PICK-UP AND THE GARAGE TO THE GROUND. *TR

DASHBOARD IS GETTING A LARGE CRACK IN IT EITHER DUE TO STRESS OR SUN HEATING AND COOLING(EXPANSION/CONTRACTION). THIS IS A PLEASURE VEHICLE, NO WORK, NOTHING EVER PUT ON THE DASHBOARD. CONCERN THAT AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY PROPERLY. *TR

THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD HAS STARTED CRACKING. *TR

I WAS TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY 151 AT 70 MPH WHEN I RECEIVED A MESSAGE STATING STABILITRAK WAS DISABLED, FOLLOWED BY REDUCED ENGINE POWER MESSAGE. WITHIN SECONDS MY TRUCK WENT FROM 70 MPH TO 35 MPH WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH A SEMI-TRUCK BEHIND ME, A CAR IN THE FAST LANE ON MY LEFT SIDE, AND SNOW ON THE RIGHTSIDE SHOULDER. I QUICKLY TAPPED MY BRAKES AND PUT ON MY RIGHT TURN SIGNAL TO NOTIFY TO THE SEMI-TRUCK DRIVER THAT I WAS QUICKLY TURNING OFF THE HIGHWAY AND DRASTICALLY REDUCING MY SPEED LOWER THAN THE ALLOWED STATE HIGHWAY MINIMUM SPEED LIMIT. CONSIDERING THE HIGHWAY TRAFFIC AND THE SPEED AT WHICH MY TRUCK REDUCED SPEED IN SUCH A QUICK MANNER, IT WAS A MIRACLE I WAS NOT REAR-ENDED BY THE SEMI-TRUCK DRIVER. THIS NOT ONLY HAPPENED TO BE ONCE ON SUNDAY, BUT TWICE ON THE SAME DAY WITHIN ABOUT 20 MILES FROM THE FIRST INCIDENT. *TR

MY 2010 GMC SIERRA HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE DEFROSTER NOT DOING AN ADEQUATE JOB WHEN THE TEMPERATURE GOES BELOW 40 DEGREES. THE COMPUTER SYSTEM WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO TURN ON THE A/C TO DEFROST THE WINDOWS NOR WILL IT ALLOW YOU TO TURN OFF THE RECIRCULATING AIR. SO BASICALLY AFTER 40 DEGREES OUTSIDE YOU ARE JUST PUMPING THE SAME HUMID AIR THROUGH THE CABIN CAUSING SEVERE FOGGING OF ALL THE WINDOWS. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ONLINE AND THERE IS A TSB IN PLACE TO FIX THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER, SINCE THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE, WHICH AFFECTS THOSE OF US IN COLDER CLIMATES, I FEEL THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL DONE. THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN 1 PERSON IN THE TRUCK AT A TIME, THE WINDOWS ARE SO FOGGY YOU NEED TO DRIVE WITH HER HEAD OUT THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW JUST TO SEE. I HAVE OWNED THIS TRUCK FOR 2 YEARS NOW AND THIS IS THE COLDEST WINTER WE HAVE HAD IN A WHILE. I DON'T THINK IT GOT BELOW 45 LAST YEAR SO I DIDN'T NOTICE AN ONGOING PROBLEM. NOW IT IS EVERYDAY. TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN - #11-01-38-001B. *TR

SATURDAY, JULY 27, 2013, OUR 2010 GMC SIERRA K1500 CAUGHT FIRE AND WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AS MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. AS SMOKE BEGAN TO FILL THE CAB AND THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT CAME ON, HE ATTEMPTED TO BRAKE SO THAT HE COULD ESCAPE, BUT THE BRAKES WERE GONE, AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. IMAGINE HIS TERROR AS HE REALIZED THAT AT AGE 65, HE MAY HAVE TO JUMP OUT OF THE TRUCK OR BE CONSUMED BY A FIRE. HE WAS ABLE TO DOWN-SHIFT TO SLOW THE TRUCK ENOUGH TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO GET THE TRUCK STOPPED JUST IN TIME TO ESCAPE FROM THE TRUCK AND GET FAR ENOUGH AWAY TO AVOID BODILY INJURY AS THE TRUCK AND OUR BELONGINGS BURNED COMPLETELY. WE ARE GRAVELY CONCERNED THAT THE TRUCK, WHICH WAS PURCHASED THREE YEARS AGO THIS MONTH, AND HAD ONLY 18,000 MILES ON IT, CLEARLY WAS A RISK TO OUR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF OTHERS. WE HAVE THREE ADULT CHILDREN AND SEVEN GRANDCHILDREN & OFTEN HAD ONE OR MORE OF THEM WITH US AS WE TRAVELED IN THIS VEHICLE. HAD WE NEEDED TO UNBUCKLE THE BABIES FROM THEIR CAR SEATS AND/OR ASSIST THE TODDLERS IN GETTING OUT, THE OUTCOME MAY HAVE BEEN VERY DIFFERENT, AND IT HAUNTS US TO KNOW THAT THIS COULD HAVE BEEN THE CASE. ALL HAD RIDDEN IN THIS TRUCK IN THE WEEKS PRECEDING YESTERDAY'S FIRE. AS MY HUSBAND HEADED HOME TO MONTANA AT THE COMPLETION OF HIS TRAVEL TO VISIT OUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN, HE ASCENDED, THEN DESCENDED "LOOKOUT PASS" ON I-90 AT THE MONTANA/IDAHO BORDER - A PASS THAT IS STEEP AND VERY BUSY WITH SUMMER VACATION TRAVEL AS WELL AS CONSISTENT HEAVY SEMI-TRUCK TRAVEL. THE CURVES ON LOOKOUT ARE TREACHEROUS: THE RATE OF ACCIDENTS AND SEMI-TRUCK ROLLOVERS ON THE CURVES IS HIGH WITHOUT AN EXTRAORDINARY EVENT SUCH AS A BURNING VEHICLE. IF OUR TRUCK HAD CAUGHT FIRE EVEN THREE OR FOUR MILES EARLIER AS HE WAS DESCENDING THE PASS, THE OUTCOME IS ALMOST UNTHINKABLE. *TR

NEED TO GET DRIVER'S SEAT BELT AND PASSENGER DOOR LOCK FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. A BAD EMPLOYEE AT THE DEALER IN JULY 2010 COMMITTED IDENTITY THEFT AND OPEN ACCOUNTS UNDER A DIFFERENT NAME "[XXX]" [XXX]. DEALER PUT ME ON A GM WIDE BLACKLIST AND SO FRUSTRATING. HAVE REPORTED TO POLICE, BUT JUST WANT TO GO TO ANOTHER GMC DEALER TO HAVE FIXED. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS NOT HELPED AND KEEPS CALLING THE FIRST DEALER TO REQUEST THEIR PERMISSION AND IT HAS BEEN DENIED. DEALER THAT COMMITTED ID THEFT: FERGUSON GMC BROKEN ARROW, OK 74011 I REALLY LIKE THE PICKUP, BUT UNFAIR TO HOLD UP WARRANTY/SAFETY REPAIRS BECAUSE OF THE ID THEFT.

INSIDE DRIVER DOOR HANDLE CHROME IS FLAKING. 3/9/13 IT CUT MY INDEX FINGER FAIRLY DEEP AND APPROXIMATELY 1/2 INCH IN LENGTH. OF COURSE IT BLED ALL OVER MY SUIT AS I WAS HEADING TO BE THE BEST MAN AT A WEDDING. 7/21/13. MY SON WAS GETTING OUT OF THE DRIVERS DOOR AND RECEIVED THE SAME INJURY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA EQUIPPED WITH PROCOMP X TREME MT TIRES, SIZE 12.50/R20LT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS HE NOTICED VIBRATION IN HIS TIRES. AFTER INSPECTING THE TIRES HE NOTICED FRACTURES ON THE SIDEWALLS OF ALL FOUR TIRES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED BY A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THEY OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 55,000 ON THE VEHICLE AND 30,000 ON THE TIRES. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

DRIVING AT ANY SPEED WHEN APPLYING LIGHT TO MEDIUM BRAKE PEDAL (AS IF SLOWING TO EXIT INTERSTATE HIGHWAY) BRAKES BEGIN TO PULSE. IT FEELS AS IF ITS IN THE REAR BRAKE. TAKEN TO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE SHOES AND DRUMS TWICE. IT LASTS 2K MILES AND STARTS ALL OVER. *TR

THE WINDSHIELD AND THE SIDE WINDOWS OF MY NEW 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500 WT, HAVE AN EXTREME TENDENCY TO FOG OVER IN TEMPERATURES NEAR THE FREEZING POINT. I HAVE READ, AND OBSERVED, THAT THE AC COMPRESSOR BECOMES AUTOMATICALLY DISABLED WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE GETS NEAR THE FREEZE ZONE (I THINK THE ACTUAL THRESHOLD IS SOMEWHERE AROUND 40 DEGREES F). WITH THE AC DISABLED, THE DEFROST MODE CANNOT KEEP THE WINDOWS CLEAR. THE PROBLEM IS MAGNIFIED WHEN THERE ARE TWO OR THREE INDIVIDUALS IN THE CAB. AT THAT POINT, IT IS EXCEEDINGLY DIFFICULT TO CLEAR THE SIDE WINDOWS, EVEN TO THE POINT THAT FROST FORMS ON THE INSIDE WINDOW SURFACE! VERY RECENTLY, WHILE TRAVELING TO WORK DURING MY 40 MILE COMMUTE, I WAS RUNNING THE AC, WITH THE TEMP CONTROL SET TO A COMFORTABLE LEVEL AND THE BLOWER ABOUT THE MEDIUM SETTING AND FLOWING THROUGH THE MAIN VENTS. THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS, APPARENTLY, HOVERING NEAR THE POINT WHERE THE ELECTRONICS DISABLE THE COMPRESSOR. THE WINDSHIELD AND BOTH SIDE WINDOWS FOGGED OVER SUDDENLY. I NOTICED THE AC LIGHT WAS OUT, SO I SWITCHED TO DEFROST MODE AND HI BLOWER. THE WINDSHIELD DID CLEAR IN ABOUT A MINUTE OR TWO, BUT ALL OF THAT HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE TURNPIKE AT 70 MPH. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERN....AT LEAST FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. IF THE AC COMPRESSOR HAD STAYED ENABLED, THIS WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP CONDENSATION BUILDUP IF YOU CANNOT RUN THE AC TO DRY THE CABIN AIR. THIS DESIGN CONFIGURATION SEEMS TO PRESENT AN ISSUE OF SAFETY. I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS JUST THIS PARTICULAR MODEL. I SUSPECT SO, SINCE IT IS THE BASE MODEL TRUCK. WE HAVE A 2011 GMC TERRAIN, WHICH DOES NOT PRESENT THIS ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER ABOUT THIS ISSUE NOW FOR 3 YEARS WITH NO RESOLUTION. THEY ACT AS THOUGH YOU ARE AN IDIOT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE SPEED INCREASED UP TO 95 MPH. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE BY TURNING OFF THE IGNITION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 42 MPH THE VEHICLES WARNINGS LIGHTS CAME ON INFORMING ME THAT THE STABILITRAC NEEDED SERVICE, TRACTION CONTROL WAS NO LONGER WORKING AND THE ENGINE WAS OPERATING AT A LOSS OF POWER. THE ENGINE STARTED SHAKING AND THE DIFFERENTIAL STARTED TO CLUNK AS IF IT WERE GOING IN AND OUT OF ENGAGEMENT. AN IMMEDIATE POWER LOSS, I WAS UNABLE TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC AND WAS IN BECOMING A HAZARD TO OTHER MOTORISTS. THE ENGINE STARTED TO PING AND FELT AS IF IT WERE FIRING ON 2 OR 3 CYLINDERS. I PULLED OVER INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE AND SHUT THE TRUCK OFF. SEVERAL MINUTES LATER I STARTED THE TRUCK AND IT RAN NORMAL, HOWEVER APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES DOWN THE ROAD IT DID THE EXACT SAME THING. I MANAGED TO TAKE THE "BACK ROADS" HOME WITHOUT ENDANGERING ANYONE. THE NEXT MORNING IT STARTED AND RAN NORMAL. YESTERDAY IT HAPPENED AGAIN ONLY THIS TIME I WAS AT A MAJOR INTERSECTION AND ALMOST CAUSED A COLLISION BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO GET THROUGH THE INTERSECTION BEFORE THE LIGHT CHANGED. I MADE IT THROUGH AND CALLED TO HAVE THE TRUCK TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. *TR

UPON START UP, AFTER SITTING FOR SEVERAL HOURS OR OVERNIGHT, THE CAR FAILS TO STOP PROPERLY FOR THE FIRST MINUTE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS THE PEDAL IS SOFT AND INCONSISTENT AND STOPPING TIMES AND DISTANCES ARE SUBSTANTIALLY GREATER THAN NORMAL OR ACCEPTABLE TOLERANCES. IT IS DANGEROUS TO BOTH PEOPLE AND PROPERTY AS THE CAR DOES NOT STOP AS IT SHOULD. I HAVE EXPERIENCED TAPPING INTO GARAGE DOORS DUE TO THE FAILURE OF THE CAR TO STOP PROPERLY. IN THE EVENT THAT A PERSON WOULD HAVE BEEN PRESENT, IT COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS CLOSE CALLS WHEN MANEUVERING IN GARAGES. A FRIEND HAS THE SAME TRUCK AND HAS ASKED IF I EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM WITH STOPPING THE TRUCK AFTER START UP. I TOOK THE CAR TO GO GMC IN GOLDEN COLORADO ON MULTIPLE OCCASSIONS. THEY DOWNPLAY THE EVENT AND STATE THAT THEY CANNOT GET THE TRUCK TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM WHEN TESTING. AFTER MULTIPLE TRIPS TO THE DEALER, THEY ARE NOW SAYING THAT IT TAKES A MINUTE OR TWO FOR THE VACUM BOOSTER, OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, TO PRESSURIZE AND THE BRAKES ARE WORKING "NORMALLY." IF THIS IS NORMAL, IT DOES NOT CONFORM WITH STANDARD DRIVING BEHAVIOR. HAVING TO WAIT FOR YOUR BRAKES TO PRESSURIZE FOR A MINUTE OF SO IS NOT NORMAL. THANKS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE PISTONS WERE LOOSE AND STRUCK THE CYLINDER WALL, IT WOULD LOOSEN UP THE ENGINE AND CAUSED AN ABNORMAL KNOCKING FROM THE ENGINE. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURE WAS NOTHING TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT AND WAS NOT HURTING THE ENGINE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED WHO STATED TO THE CONTACT THAT THEY WOULD SPEAK WITH THE DEALER TO DETERMINE THE REMEDY FOR THE FAILURE. THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THE FAILURE.

DURING A TRIP ALONG WA HIGHWAY 2, WESTBOUND THRU STEVENS PASS, THE TEMPERATURE WAS DROPPING AS INDICATED BY THE VEHICLES OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE INDICATION. AS IT TRAVERSED FROM APPROX 42 DEGREES F TO 36 DEGREES F ALL WINDOWS FOGGED SEVERELY SO AS TO RENDER NO VISIBILITY. THE DEFROSTER WAS ENGAGED DURING THIS EVENT. THIS VEHICLE HAS A MANUAL HVAC SYSTEM. THIS HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES AS THE TEMPERATURE TRAVERSES BELOW 36 DEGREES F, ALL TIMES RESULT IN EXCESSIVE CABIN MOISTURE AND WINDOW FOGGING. THIS EVENT HAS BEEN REPORTED BY OTHER 2010/2011 GMC/SILVERADO/AVALANCE, ETC OWNERS. GMC IS AWARE BUT HAS NO FIX AND DEALERS OFFER NO FIX. *KB

THE DEALER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND AGREED TO PERFORM THE REPAIRS; HOWEVER, HE LATER BACKED OUT BECAUSE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE AN ADEQUATE REMEDY FOR THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT DID NOT INFORM THE MANUFACTURER OF THE FAILURE NOR WAS THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 5,000 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,800.

2010 GMC SIERRA 1500. CONSUMER STATES THE JACK THAT COMES WITH THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO USE WHEN REMOVING THE REAR TIRE *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE JACK COULD EASILY SLIP OFF FROM UNDER THE AXLE, WHICH IS ROUND AND DOES NOT HAVE ANY FLAT OR CONTAINED SURFACE FOR THE JACK TO BE PLACED. *JB

THE WINDSHIELD AND THE SIDE WINDOWS OF MY NEW 2010 GMC SIERRA 1500 WT, HAVE AN EXTREME TENDENCY TO FOG OVER IN TEMPERATURES NEAR THE FREEZING POINT. I HAVE READ, AND OBSERVED, THAT THE AC COMPRESSOR BECOMES AUTOMATICALLY DISABLED WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE GETS NEAR THE FREEZE ZONE (I THINK THE ACTUAL THRESHOLD IS SOMEWHERE AROUND 40 DEGREES F). WITH THE AC DISABLED, THE DEFROST MODE CANNOT KEEP THE WINDOWS CLEAR. THE PROBLEM IS MAGNIFIED WHEN THERE ARE TWO OR THREE INDIVIDUALS IN THE CAB. AT THAT POINT, IT IS EXCEEDINGLY DIFFICULT TO CLEAR THE SIDE WINDOWS, EVEN TO THE POINT THAT FROST FORMS ON THE INSIDE WINDOW SURFACE! VERY RECENTLY, WHILE TRAVELING TO WORK DURING MY 40 MILE COMMUTE, I WAS RUNNING THE AC, WITH THE TEMP CONTROL SET TO A COMFORTABLE LEVEL AND THE BLOWER ABOUT THE MEDIUM SETTING AND FLOWING THROUGH THE MAIN VENTS. THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS, APPARENTLY, HOVERING NEAR THE POINT WHERE THE ELECTRONICS DISABLE THE COMPRESSOR. THE WINDSHIELD AND BOTH SIDE WINDOWS FOGGED OVER SUDDENLY. I NOTICED THE AC LIGHT WAS OUT, SO I SWITCHED TO DEFROST MODE AND HI BLOWER. THE WINDSHIELD DID CLEAR IN ABOUT A MINUTE OR TWO, BUT ALL OF THAT HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE TURNPIKE AT 70 MPH. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERN....AT LEAST FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. IF THE AC COMPRESSOR HAD STAYED ENABLED, THIS WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP CONDENSATION BUILDUP IF YOU CANNOT RUN THE AC TO DRY THE CABIN AIR. THIS DESIGN CONFIGURATION SEEMS TO PRESENT AN ISSUE OF SAFETY. I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS JUST THIS PARTICULAR MODEL. I SUSPECT SO, SINCE IT IS THE BASE MODEL TRUCK. WE HAVE A 2011 GMC TERRAIN, WHICH DOES NOT PRESENT THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 GMC SIERRA HYBRID (NA). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES GRABBED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS COMING TO A STOP, WHICH MADE THE VEHICLE COME TO AN ABRUPT JERKING STOP. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHEN SLOWING DOWN FROM HIGHER SPEEDS, HE HAD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH EXTREME FORCE. THE DEALER GAVE THE CONTACT A MEMO FROM THE MANUFACTURER TO PUMP THE BRAKES ON THE HYBRIDS FOR A SMOOTHER STOP. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 2,000...UPDATED 09/15/11 *BF UPDATED 09/26/11

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2010 GMC SIERRA CREW CAB. THE REAR SEAT HEAD RESTRAINTS ARE INADEQUATELY AND/OR DEFECTIVELY DESIGNED, AND WILL OFFER LITTLE PROTECTION TO THE REAR SEAT PASSENGERS IN THE EVENT OF A REAR END COLLISION. THE RESTRAINTS ARE MOUNTED ON SHORT POSTS, WHICH DO NOT EXTEND HIGH ENOUGH TO OFFER PROTECTION TO MOST INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE SEATED IN THE REAR. THE POSTS ALSO DO NOT LOCK IN PLACE, (LIKE THE FRONT HEADRESTS) AND SIMPLY SLIDE UP AND DOWN FREELY. I CONTACTED GMC BY LETTER, AND REQUESTED THAT THEY MODIFY OR REPLACE THE HEADRESTS, BUT THEY REFUSED, STATING THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED TO PASS ALL FEDERAL SAFETY STANDARDS. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, I REALIZED THAT AUTO MANUFACTURERS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO INSTALL HEAD RESTRAINTS ON THE REAR SEATS OF PASSENGER VEHICLES, AND THAT THE SHAPE, SIZE AND LOCATION OF THE RESTRAINTS CONTINUES TO VARY FROM VEHICLE TO VEHICLE. IT THEREFORE APPEARS THAT MANY VEHICLES, SUCH AS MINE, OFFER INADEQUATE HEAD PROTECTION FOR ALL BUT THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGERS. INDEED, THE PROTECTION IS SO POOR IN THE SIERRA, THAT ANY FRONT OR REAR COLLISION WILL LIKELY RESULT IN THE REAR SEAT PASSENGERS' HEADS COLLIDING WITH THE REAR WINDOW, CAUSING HEAD TRAUMA IN ADDITION TO THE CERVICAL TRAUMA SUSTAINED FROM THE LACK OF HEAD AND NECK SUPPORT. I AM QUITE DISAPPOINTED THAT MY VEHICLE OFFERS SUCH INADEQUATE PROTECTION, AND HOPE THAT THE NHTSA WILL TAKE ACTION ON THE ISSUE. THE COST OF INSTALLING ADEQUATE HEAD RESTRAINTS IN ALL U.S. VEHICLES SURELY OUTWEIGHS THE HEALTH CARE AND HUMAN COSTS THAT ARE BEING BORNE BY OUR CONSUMERS EVERY TIME SOMEONE IS INJURED DUE TO A MANUFACTURER'S FAULTY OR NEGLIGENT HEAD REST DESIGN. UNTIL THE NHTSA MANDATES SUCH PROTECTIONS, AUTO MANUFACTURERS WILL HAVE FREE REIGN TO CONTINUE TO SKIMP ON CONSUMER SAFETY, AND THE U.S. PUBLIC WILL CONTINUE TO SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES. *TR
