My truck was bought new by my cousin and not even a year having it the frame started rusting badly. Now we own it & it is scary to drive the frame is so bad rusted. We have put so much money into it it’s ridiculous & cant afford to anymore. It’s a danger for my family to drive it. I’m scared to drive my 8 year old in it. It’s causing more than the frame to rust. We’ve replaced gas lines, brake lines & so much more. I wished GMC would fix this problem & repair all vehicles this has happened to.

Received a air bag recall notice . I scheduled a appointment with Hall Buick GMC in Tyler Texas 10-18-21 at 11:00 am . We showed up to service Dept. The young guy checking us in told us that 92% of the time they will crack the dash when getting it removed to do the the air bag recall work and the dealer is not responsible for any damage. I told him to get his manger so he did. We talked to service manger John Mackey he told use the same thing that the dealer is not responsible for any damage done to the dash like cracks or breakage while doing air bag recall work. I told him as you can see this truck has been garage kept since new and not in the sun. He said I can see that . I told him per the paper work I received if not fixed it may cause serious injury or death to passengers .Who's going to pay for that. He said GM and Takata. Is there any one that can do the air bag recall work without damaging the dash.

The contact called on behalf of a GM dealer where he is employed. He stated that a customer had dropped off his 2009 GMC Sierra to be serviced for NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V052000 (Air Bags). As the vehicle sat on the dealer lot with the engine off, the contact witnessed both the passenger and driver side air bags deploy without incident. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was filed. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was 68,895.

Transmission Control Module Since the summer of 2020 the vehicle has at least half a dozen times, without warning, experienced the following symptoms (most recently July 27, 2021 when I captured it on video). 1. power door locks begin cycling open and closed 2. intermittent chime operation 3. transmission locks into a single gear and won't shift or will shift harshly 4. gauges fluctuate 5. traction control and stabilitrak turn off 6. service traction control and service stabilitrak messages appear 7. transmission position indicator disappears

Dash cracked. A known problem for these vehicles

Dashboard has cracked right in the middle. Happened overnight.

The contact owns a 2009 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that the service air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V052000 (Air Bags). The vehicle was repaired but continued to experience the failure. The manufacturer was informed of the failure but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 131,667

There was no incident, yet. However, this recall was issued on February 5, 2021, today is July 6, 2021. My safety and the safety of passengers are at risk because there is no resolution from the manufacturer thus far, over five months. This recall also negatively affects the resell/trade-in value of my vehicle. Because of the active recall, dealers will not trade for my vehicle for a reasonable value. So, due to the manufacturer being unable to fix the problem in a timely manner, I am financially impacted.

Takata Recall. The contact owns a 2009 GMC SIERRA. The contact stated that the "Service airbag notification" warning light had illuminated onthe instrument panel. The contact then received a notification for NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V053000(AIRBAGS); however, the parts for the repair were unavailable. The dealer had been notified about the recall; however, the contact was informed that the parts were not yet available. The manufacturer had been notified of the recall. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the repair. The failure was unknown. Vin tool confirms parts not available.

First had transmission replaced, then a second one, now third time they say transfer case, locking itself in gear, and dangerous cause wanted to take off fast in reverse. All this happening just in a couple months time. Cost 3500 for transmission, now saying transfer case will cost me more money, and I still owe 800 on the transmission replacement. It is a 2009 GMC Sierra LD, vin is [XXX]. Thank you hope you can help me out on this. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

HELLO, I WAS JUST AT MOSSY GMC IN NEW ORLEANS,LA., WHERE I WENT TO SEE ABOUT GETTING MY RECALLED AIRBAG ORDERED AND REPLACED. THE SERVICE REP TOLD ME THAT WHEN THEY CHANGE OUT THE AIRBAG, MOST OF THE TIME THE DASHBOARD CRACKS EVEN MORE, WHERE THEY WILLBE WORKING, BUT THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE BROKEN DASHBOARD. I FEEL THAT THIS IS TOTALLY REDICULOUS! IF I DIDN'T HAVE THAT DAMAGE BEFORE GOING INTO A SERVICE CENTER, AND NOW I HAVE DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE SERVICE CENTER, I SHOULD NOT BE HAVING TO PAY FOR A NEW DASHBOARD OUT OF MY OWN POCKET. I FEEL THAT A CRACKED DASHBOARD COULD COMPOUND THE SEVERITY OF A CAR CRASH, BEING SAID, IT COULD SHATTER INTO PIECES UPON AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND SEND SHARDS OF DASHBOARD FLYING AT BOTH THE DRIVER AND THEIR PASSENGERS. THE SHARDS, COULD ALSO LACERATE THE AIRBAGS AND RENDER THEM USELESS. PLEASE HELP ME OUT WITH THIS SITUATION.

TAKATA PASSENGER AIRBAG GM RECALL N212328780. GM SAFETY RECALL LETTER DATED 02/2021 INDICATING PART IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE AND I WILL BE NOTIFIED ONCE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. I REQUEST, WITH CONCERN, AN INVESTIGATION BE PERFORMED ON THE AIRBAG PROPELLANT COMPONENTS FOR SIGNS OF EXPANSION PROBLEM WHICH MAY HAVE CAUSED A CRACK/SPLIT IN VEHICLE DASH SURFACE. THIS COMPLETE CRACK/SPLIT IS LOCATED NEAR UPPER LEFT CORNER OF RECALLED PASSENGER AIRBAG/COVER. DASH APPEARS TO BE SLIGHTLY RAISED IN THAT AREA OF CRACK/SPLIT. PREVIOUS GM RECALL ISSUED FOR SAME DASH PROBLEM FOR OTHER MODEL YEAR VEHICLES?

I KEEP RECEIVING THE LETTERS ABOUT MY RECALL BUT THE AIR BAG IS NEVER IN STOCK, I ALSO HAVE A CHEVY TAHOE 2011 WITH SAME ISSUE

CONTACTED GM CORPORATE, THEY TOLD ME THEY CAN'T HELP ME AND TO CALL THE LOCAL DEALER TO SCHEDULE GETTING THE SERVICE TO GET DONE. LOCAL DEALER DOES NOT HAVE ANY INFORMATION, IS NOT ABLE TO GET PARTS, AND IS NOT WILLING TO DO SERVICE AS IT WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AS ITS NOT IN GM'S SYSTEM. GM IS CONTINUING TO STALL AND THIS HAS BEEN A FOUR YEAR ORDEAL. LOCAL DEALER HAS NO TIMEFRAME OF WHEN THE SYSTEM WILL BE UPDATED SO THEY CAN BEGIN THE WORK, THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHEN THEY WILL BE ABLE TO GET PARTS OR IF THEY WILL EVEN BE ABLE TO GET PARTS.

PLASTIC "MOLDED RIVETS" ARE BREAKING ON THE KNEE BOLSTER THAT HOLDS THE METAL SHIELD BEHIND IT. I'VE BEEN TOLD THIS SHIELD IS TO GUARD FROM INJURY FROM THE STEERING COLUMN DURING A CRASH. I'VE READ REPORTS ONLINE OF PEOPLE REMOVING THIS GUARD SINCE IT HAS STARTED RATTLING. I WILL NOT REMOVE MINE, BUT I'M NOT GOING TO INSTALL BOLTS THROUGH THE KNEE BOOSTER TO SECURE IT. IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE REMAINING PLASTIC BREAKS FREE AND THIS WILL BE DISCARDED. IF IT'S TRULY A SAFETY ITEM, I BELIEVE IT NEEDS TO HAVE BETTER SECURITY THAN MOLDED INTO THE BRITTLE PLASTIC THAT WE ALL KNOW GM HAS IN THESE TRUCKS FROM THE LAWSUIT ON DASHBOARDS.

DASH IS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES, ESPECIALLY AROUND PASSENGER AIRBAG, POSSIBLY CREATING SHRAPNEL IN AN ACCIDENT.

AT AROUND 4,000 MILES THE FRONT BRAKES SQUEALED OFTEN, MOSTLY WHEN IT HAD BEEN SITTING FOR A WHILE. (BRAKE PADS HAD A LOT OF MEAT LEFT). AT AROUND 10,000 MILES THE BRAKES STARTED GRABBING WHILE DRIVING. I PLAYED WITH THE E-BRAKE SOME SINCE THIS IS THE MOST COMMON CULPRIT, AND THE GRABBING WENT AWAY SOON AFTERWARDS. FAST FORWARD TO 80,000 MILES WHERE I CHANGED OUT THE FRONT BRAKE PADS. THE SPRING RETAINER CLIPS WERE COMPLETELY DESTROYED, AND THE PADS HAD SIGNS OF GRABBING (HAD UNEVEN WEAR). MY NEW PADS ARE SQUEALING JUST LIKE THE FIRST SET OF PADS DID. I'M ASSUMING THE SPRING RETAINERS ARE HITTING THE ROTOR, SQUEALING, AND EVENTUALLY BREAKING. I CAN ONLY GUESS THAT MY NEW PADS WILL BE GRABBING IN A FEW THOUSAND MILES.

I WAS DRIVING AND NOTICED THE DASH WAS CRACKED AND IT'S JYST GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER.

TRUCK HAS 56000 MILES. HAD TO SERVICE AIRBAGS A FEW YEARS AGO.. BIG BUCKS. NOW HAVE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT ON FOR 2ND TIME. I REPLACED BOTH IMPACT SENSORS BUT THAT DID NOT FIX PROBLEM. IT SEEMS THAT OTHER SIERRA OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR AIRBAG PROBLEMS. I'M WONDERING IF IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE AND IF THIS IS A DEFECT THAT GM IS IGNORING.

I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM TAKATA 3 YEARS AGO ABOUT A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG RECALL BUT NEVER RECEIVED ANY INFO ABOUT TAKING IT IN TO HAVE IT REPLACED.ALSO, ABOUT THE SAME TIME AS I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE MY SERVICE AIRBAG SOON LIGHT CAME ON AND IS STILL ON WHICH WILL MOST LIKELY PREVENT ME FROM TRADING IN OR SELLING THE TRUCK SHOULD I DECIDE TO DO SO.I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE PROBLEM SOLVED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. ALSO I HAD TO REPLACE THE WHEELS AS THEY WERE RUSTED OUT AND LEAKED AIR THRU THE WELD JOINTS WHICH APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH GMC AND CHEVVY TRUCKS.2016

REAR END LOCKS UP. IF THE WHEELS SPIN THEN THE TRUCK WONT MOVE. IT GETS STUCK AND YOU HAVE TO FORCE IT FORWARD UNTIL THE WHEELS START MOVING FREELY AGAIN.

THE VEHICLE CONTAINS TAKATA AIRBAGS THAT AN OPEN RECALL WAS STARTED 3 YEARS AGO FOR BUT A DECISION HAS NEVER BEEN MADE. THE DASH HAS NOW CRACKED NEAR THE AIRBAGS. IF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY THEY COULD CAUSE SHRAPNEL FROM THE DASH TO BE PUT INTO THE CABIN. THERE IS AN OPEN LAWSUIT IN THE US AND CANADA WITH GM IN REGARDS TO THE DASH. THE VEHICLE IS ALSO DISPLAYING INTERMITTENT AIRBAG SERVICE ERROR MESSAGES. GM WILL NOT DIAGNOSE THE AIRBAG ISSUE FOR FREE AND WANT'S ANYWHERE FROM $150-$250 SIMPLY TO READ THE CODE PLUS WHATEVER THE REPAIR WOULD COST. GM ALSO WANTS $1500-$2000 TO REPLACE THE DASH. GM HAS DEEMED THIS VEHICLE "SAFE" BUT WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THAT "SAFE" DESIGNATION BY DIAGNOSING THE AIRBAG ISSUE FOR FREE. THE AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT STARTED OFF VERY INFREQUENTLY AND HAS STARTED TO BECOME MORE FREQUENT. I HAVE ALSO BEEN CUT BY THE DASH ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, WHICH PRESENTS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD. GM CORPORATE WILL NOT GIVE ANY TIMELINE TO A RESOLUTION AND WILL ONLY PAY FOR REPAIRS ONCE THE NHTSA FORCES THEM INTO A RECALL. A "SAFE" VEHICLE DOES NOT INJURY IT'S USERS OR REPORT ERRORS WITH ITS SAFETY SYSTEMS FREQUENTLY.

I HAD COMPLETED THE LEFT TURN, AND AS THE WHEEL WAS RETURNING TO THE CENTER(TURNING BACK TO THE RIGHT), THE WHEEL LOCKED. I WAS FORCED INTO THE NEXT LANE AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I HAD TO USE A LOT OF STRENGTH, AND I EVENTUALLY FORCED IT. WHEN IT BROKE FREE, IT MADE A LOUD POP SOUND. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE TRUCK.

TAKATA RECALL I WAS NOTIFIED IN JULY OF 2016 BY GMC OF A POSSIBLE ISSUE WITH TAKATA AIRBAGS. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO CURRENT SOLUTION AND TO WAIT. I WAITED ONE YEAR (2017) AND CALLED AGAIN AND WAS TOLD NOTHING HAS CHANGED. I DID THAT AGAIN IN 2018 AS WELL AND WAS TOLD THERE WERE NO UPDATES. AROUND THE TIME OF MY SECOND CALL IN 2018, I STARTED GETTING AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGE FROM THE VEHICLE. I CONTACTED GM CORPORATE IN REGARDS TO THE ISSUE ASSUMING IT HAS TO DO WITH THE RECALL. I WAS TOLD BY GM CORPORATE THAT IN NO WAY WOULD THEY BE WILLING OR ABLE TO ASSIST OR PAY FOR ANY OF THE COST OF GETTING THIS RESOLVED AND THAT I WOULD BE REQUIRED TO EVERYTHING MYSELF. I MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET REIMBURSED IF THE RECALL FINALLY WENT THROUGH, BUT IF THE RECALL WENT THROUGH AFTER I SOLD THE VEHICLE THEY WOULD NOT REIMBURSE ME. I CONTACTED A LOCAL DEALERSHIP THAT WAS NOT WILLING TO HELP WITH COSTS EITHER AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD PROBABLY BE $300 TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM PLUS COSTS OF REPAIR. I'VE ALSO ATTEMPTED TO SELL THE VEHICLE BUT HAVE HAD BUYERS BACK OUT DUE TO THE OPEN RECALL OR OFFERED ME BELOW MARKET VALUE FOR THE TRUCK BECAUSE OF THE RECALL. THEREBY CAUSING AS OF RIGHT NOW "PERMANENT DIMINISHED VALUE" I PERSONALLY FEEL LIKE GM IS DRAGGING THEIR FEET KNOWING THAT IF THEY CAN WAIT LONG ENOUGH THE NUMBER OF VEHICLES WILL DROP OFF THE ROADS CAUSING THE REPAIRS TO BE CHEAPER.

I PURCHASED MY TRUCK ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO AND IT HAD 32,00 MILES ON IT, IT NOW HAS 40,000 MILES. EVERYTHING WAS FINE WITH IT UNTIL ABOUT MID-APRIL. I WAS DRIVING TO KALAMAZOO TO SEE MY DAUGHTER ON I-94 AROUND 72 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON. I TURNED ON MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL TO CHANGE LANES TO PASS THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME AND TO MY DISMAY MY SPEED DROPPED DRASTICALLY AS THE CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGED. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES ON THE WAY TO KALAMAZOO THAT DAY. IT ALSO GOT WORSE ON THIS TRIP, SOMETIMES THE DOOR LOCKS WOULD LOCK AND UNLOCK, ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD TURNED ON AND OFF AND EVERY TIME ANYTHING HAPPENED THE SPEED DROPPED, WHICH TO ME IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE PART OF A RECALL. WHEN I GOT HOME THE NEXT DAY, I CALLED LEVALLEY GMC TO TAKE A LOOK AT MY TRUCK (WHERE IT'S BEEN SERVICED SINCE PURCHASE). WHEN I EXPLAINED THE SITUATION TO THEM, THEY CLAIMED THEY NEVER HEARD OF IT. THAT'S STRANGE BECAUSE IF THIS SITUATION IS GOOGLED, THERE IS A LOT OF INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT COULD BE WRONG. LO AND BEHOLD A DAY AND A HALF LATER MY TRUCK WAS FIXED AT A COST OF $1069.71 FOR DIAGNOSIS AND 3 CABLES, ALL POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLES. I CONSIDER THIS SITUATION A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I SENT A LETTER TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE. LOU CONTACTED ME AND LEFT A VOICE MAIL WITH CASE NUMBER 8-4206988703 (6/4/18). I CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE AND SPOKE WITH TONI ALSO 6/4/18. TONI REVIEWED THE CASE AND ASKED WHAT I WAS REQUESTING. I TOLD HER THAT THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY MATTER THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AND I WOULD LIKE TO BE COMPENSATED SOMEHOW. TONI STATED THAT THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS SITUATION AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT SHE CAN DO. I TOLD HER MAYBE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AND I AGAIN STATED THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE

"TAKATA RECALL". HAVE NOT BEEN TO OBTAIN REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS FOR MY TRUCK SINCE AUGUST 4, 2016 FROM ANY DEALERSHIPS IN MY AREA.

TAKATA RECALL, I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL IN JULY OF 2016 RECALL NUMBER 49151. I KEEP ASKING MY LOCAL GMC DEALER LINUS BUICK GMC 1401 US HWY 1, VERO BEACH, FL 32960, 772-562-1700, AGAIN TODAY 10/23/2017, I VISITED THEIR SERVICE CENTER IN REFERENCE TO THIS RECALL. I WAS TOLD AGAIN THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE FOR MY VEHICLE. ON 10/20/2017 I RECEIVED A POSTCARD FROM TK HOLDINGS INC. P.O.BOX3004 MONROE, WI 53566, CHAPTER 11 CASE NO. 17-11375(BLS) I WANT MY VEHICLE REPAIRED.

TAKATA RECALL AFTER MANY CALLS TO MY DEALER I CAN NOT GET THIS AIR BAD CHANGED. IF IT'S BAD ENOUGH FOR A RECALL IT'S BAD ENOUGH TO CHANGE IT NOW. DOES IT HAVE TO EXPLOSED BE FOR ANYTHING HAPPENS. I HAVE CALLED CRITZ GMC MORE TIMES THAN I WANT TO ,IT'S BEEN GOING ON TWO YEARS SINCE I GOT THE NOTICE.

CRACKED DASH ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND BY THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. COULD CAUSE A SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED AND IS NOT AESTHETICALLY PLEASING CONSIDERING THE MONEY SPENT ON THE VEHICLE.

AT AROUND 100,000 MILES, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND INDICATE LOW OIL PRESSURE. CHANGING THE SENSOR OUT DID NOT EFFECT THE SITUATION. CHANGING THE OIL WOULD HELP BUT USUALLY ONLY FOR AROUND 3,500 MILES. THE ENGINE WAS LOSING OIL MORE THAN IT SHOULD. THEN AT AROUND 129,000 MILES, THE TRUCK STARTING SHAKING BECAUSE OF THE ENGINE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE A CYLINDER 7 MISFIRE. CHANGING THE COIL PACK, SPARK PLUG, AND SPARK PLUG WIRE DID NOTHING. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE WAS IRREPARABLE AND NEEDED REPLACING. UPON RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM AMONG 2008-2012 GM ENGINES WITH THE AFM SYSTEM. GM SHOULD ABSOLUTELY ISSUE A RECALL AND REPAIR THESE DEFECTIVE ENGINES OR OTHERWISE REIMBURSE THE OWNERS FOR THE REPAIRS.

ENTERING A HIGHWAY FROM A STOP, PROCEEDED TO ACCELERATE NORMALLY AND GRADUALLY. AFTER APPROX. SHIFT BETWEEN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR, THE GAS PEDAL WAS 'SUCKED' DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND REMAINED STUCK IN THAT POSITION. THE TRUCK LURCHED FORWARD AND BEHAVED LIKE IT WAS IN 'PASSING' GEAR. I TRIED TO TAP THE PEDAL TO RELEASE IT, BUT HAD NO EFFECT. I TURNED THE CRUISE CONTROL ON THEN OFF (DID NOT SET A SPEED) AND HAD NO EFFECT. I DEPRESSED THE BRAKES FAIRLY HARD WHICH SLOWED THE TRUCK DOWN, BUT THAT DID NOT RELEASE THE GAS PEDAL; AS SOON AS I LEFT OFF THE BRAKES, THE TRUCK AGAIN ACCELERATED AT FULL SPEED. ALTERNATING BETWEEN THE BRAKES AND TAPPING THE GAS PEDAL EVENTUALLY UNSTUCK THE GAS PEDAL.. NOTE THAT MY 'SPEED' WAS 0-50MPH WHEN I WAS ABLE TO UNSTUCK THE GAS PEDAL. I STATED THE INCIDENT OCCURRED AT (APPROX) 15MPH, THE SPEED WHEN SHIFTING BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND.

DASHBOARD CRACKS, ON BOTH SIDES, ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. PASSENGERS SIDE CRACK IS EFFECTING HOW THE AIRBAG ACCESS COVER SNAPS INTO THE EXCISTING DASH RECESS. IT'S VERY BAD AND SAGGING DOWN EFFECTING HOW THE AIRBAG WOULD DEPLOY.

TAKATA RECALL TRUCK PURCHASED FEB 2014 AIR BAG LIGHT BEGAN TO FLASH "ON" WITHIN MONTHS, CONTINUOUSLY AS OF JULY 2014 AND REMAINS ON TODAY. WRITTEN NOTICE OF RECALL ARRIVED A YEAR AGO. CAR DEALER WAS CONTACTED. I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN REPLACEMENT AIR BAG CAME IN. TO THIS DAY, NO CONTACT. WHERE IS THE REPLACEMENT?

TAKATA RECALL! IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR SINCE WE RECEIVED THE NOTICE OF THIS RECALL. DEALERSHIPS LOCALLY SAY PARTS NOT AVAILABLE YET TO FIX OUR AIRBAGS.. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED FOR OUR SAFETY WOULD LIKE A RESOLUTION IMMEDIATLY PLEASE. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO WORRY AND WAIT THIS LONG TO SECURE THEY ARE SAFE IN THEIR VEHICLE. PLEASE HELP ME.

THE DASHBOARD CRACKED AT THE AIR BAG LOCATION. UPPER LEFT SIDE OF THE AIRBAG.

I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK BRAND NEW AND I CAN ALWAYS REMEMBER HEARING LOUD POPS COMING FROM THE DASH AREA ON A REGULAR BASIS. FOR SEVERAL THOUSAND MILES, THERE WAS NO VISUAL DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF THESE POPS. AROUND 60,000 MILES, HOWEVER, I BEGAN TO. NOTICE A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD NEAR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. AS I CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE TRUCK, I STILL HEARD THE OCCASIONAL POP AND ANOTHER CRACK SOON APPEARED ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. MORE MIKES DRIVEN, MORE POPS, AND MORE CRACKS. AS ANYONE WOULD DO, I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO THE LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP TO LET THEM KNOW THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE DASHBOARD. I ALWAYS USED A SUNSHADE WHEN PARKING OUTSIDE AND I KEPT IT PARKED IN THE GARAGE AT HOME. I ALSO KEEP MY TRUCK MAINTAINED VERY WELL, AS I CAN'T STAND A DIRTY AND NEGLECTED VEHICLE. SINCE IT HAD BEEN WELL-MAINTAINED AND WAS NEVER DRIVEN HARD, I EXPECTED GM TO SEE THE DAMAGE AND REPLACE IT UNDER WARRANTY. TO MY DISMAY, HOWEVER, THEY SAID THAT DUE TO THE AGE AND MILEAGE, THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. GM QUOTED ME AROUND $1200 TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD IF I WANTED TO GET RID OF THE CRACKS. ASTONISHED THAT GM WOULD NOT WARRANTY AN OBVIOUS FAULTY ITEM, I THEN SEARCHED ONLINE TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I QUICKLY FOUND OTHERS IN FORUMS, YOUTUBE VIDEOS, AND ON FACEBOOK THAT HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS MYSELF, WITH CRACKS IN THE EXACT SAME PLACES AND VERY SIMILAR RESPONSES FROM GM WHEN THEY TRIED TO HAVE THE ISSUE RESOLVED. I FOUND A GROUP ON FACEBOOK DEDICATED TO THIS EXACT PROBLEM AND IT IS CONSISTENT IN '07-'13 MODEL GM TRUCKS AND SUVS. AFTER BEING DENIED ASSISTANCE BY GM, HAVING SOME MECHANICAL KNOWLEDGE, AS WELL AS THE DESIRE TO CONTINUE DRIVING THIS TRUCK LONGER, I REMOVED THE DASHBOARD ONLY TO FIND CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD WHERE THE SCREWS FASTENED IT IN PLACE, AS WELL AS CLIPS BROKEN OFF THAT WERE MEANT TO HOLD IT DOWN INTO PLACE.

DASH IS CRACKING NEXT TO AIRBASE ON PASSENGER SIDE AND ADDITIONALLY NEXT TO INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. MULTIPLE CASES HAVE BEEN REPORTED OF THIS (DEALER SAID IT IS TYPICAL). SOME REPORTS ARE AT 80% OF THE DASHES CRACK IN THIS AREA. WE ARE AT 100%. MY WIFE'S 2009 CHEVY TAHOE IS CRACKED IN THE EXACT SAME PLACE. IN HER CASE, THE AIRBAG MECHANISM IS POPPING OUT OF THE DASH. SHOULD IT NEED TO DEPLOY, IT CANNOT AS DESIGNED. BOTH VEHICLES HAVE BEEN PROPERLY MAINTAINED AND NO CHEMICAL USED ON THE DASH. IN THE CASE OF THE GMC SIERRA, IT ONLY HAS 66K MILES ON IT AND HAS NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD. DEALER AND GM HAVE REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. REPAIR COST 1,200. I AM TAKING THE TAHOE IN NEXT WEEK FOR REPAIR DUE TO MY SAFETY CONCERNS FOR MY WIFE.

ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT FAILURE NUMBER 4 CYLINDER. P0304 DTC. HAS A LOUD TICKING NOISE AND A MISS ON NUMBER 4 CYLINDER. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN MAINTAINED AND AS I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM, IT APPEARS TO BE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO AFFECT THESE TRUCKS.

DASH IS CRACKING AT THREE POINTS. TWO ARE LOCATED AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG AND THE THIRD IS AT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

AT 80000 MY TRUCK IS GOING THROUGH 4 TO 6 QTS OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. AS A MASTER TECHNICIAN THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE POOREST EXCUSE FOR ENGINEERING I HAVE EVER COME ACROSS WITH THIS AFM SYSTEM THEY HAVE. I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT HAVE LOST AN ENGINE BY 100000 MILES. WITH TODAYS TECHNOLOGY THAT'S A BAD JOKE ON THE CONSUMER. WITH SHORTER INTERVALS AND SOME ADDITIVE'S I HAVE MANAGED TO GET TO 1 QT EVERY 1900 MILES AND THAT'S AS GOOD AS IT GETS.

MY TRUCK DIED IN TRAFFIC BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET STARTED AND HOME (2 MILES). MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I AM READING A CODE U0191, WHICH REFERS TO THE FUEL PUMP FLOW CONTROL MODULE. I HAD TO PURCHASE A BATTERY BECAUSE I HAD A BATTERY DRAINING ISSUE AND WAS HAVING TO JUMP IT IF IT SAT FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. MY TRUCK WILL NOT START AT THIS TIME. AFTER DOING SOME CHECKING, BOTH MY FUEL PUMP AND FUEL FLOW MODULE FUSES ARE HOT EVEN WITH THE TRUCK IGNITION OFF. WHICH WOULD INDICATE A SHORT IN THE SYSTEM. AFTER SOME RESEARCH , I FOUND A SAFETY RECALL THAT DESCRIBES THE EXACT ISSUE BUT MY VIN DOESN'T COME UP IN THE RECALL. RECALL BULLETIN # 14515B . I GUESS WHAT I AM ASKING IS WHY WASN'T MY VEHICLE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL? APPARENTLY THIS IS AFFECTING MORE VEHICLES THAT WHAT THE RECALL INCLUDED.

CRACKS APPEARED ON DASHBOARD ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND PASSENGER AIRBAG. CRACK NEXT TO AIRBAG APPEARS TO BE SAFETY HAZARD AS IT COULD PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG DURING DEPLOYMENT OR THE PLASTIC COULD EASILY BREAK AND BE LAUNCHED AS A PROJECTILE.

DASH IS CRACKED RUNNING DIRECTLY OVER PASSENGER AIR BAG AND ACROSS THE VENT POTIONS OF THE DASH.

ALL DOOR LOCKS ARE INOPERATIVE. THEY WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK THE DOORS WITH EITHER THE KEY OF THE DOOR LOCK BUTTONS. JUST FOUND THIS WEBSITE-HENCE DELAY IN REPORTING, DID CONTACT DEALERSHIP-COST OF REPAIR IS ASTRONOMICAL

DASH CRACK.

THE DASH HAS CRACKED, SPECIFICALLY AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG, WHICH RAISES CONCERN THAT DEBRIS UPON IMPACT MAY CAUSE INJURY OR CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO MALFUNCTION. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN A COLLISION. THE CRACKS PROGRESSIVELY WORSEN OVER TIME. GMC REFUSES TO OFFER ASSISTANCE FOR THIS REPAIR BECAUSE IT IS OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY AND WE ARE NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNERS. THE CRACKS HAVE APPEARED SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE.

CRACKING DASHBOARD

DASH BOARD CRACK(S) FOUND IN MANY 2007-2013 GM TRUCKS/SUVS MAY CAUSE INJURY IN THE EVENT OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THESE CRACKS CAN TURN INTO PROJECTILES CAUSING INJURY TO PASSENGERS.

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

SEVERE DASH CRACKING OF DASHBOARD AROUND FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG RAISES GREAT CONCERNS OF PLASTIC FRAGMENTS INJURING FRONT OCCUPANTS IF AIR BAG IS DEPLOYED. ADDITIONAL CRACKING APART OF DASH PARTS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF DRIVER ABOVE GUAGE CLUSTER THAT CLEARLY IS A MFG DEFECT THAT IS BEEN FOUND A COMMON DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED.

LIFTER FAILURE! EXPENSIVE REPAIR! COMMON ISSUE ON AFM 5.3 V8 ENGINES. DRIVING DOWN HWY. JUST HAD HAD LOW OIL PRESSURE ISSUES AND MADE NECESSARY REPAIRS THE VERY DAY BEFORE (CLEANED SMALL SCREEN THAT PICKS UP OIL TO SEND PRESSURE TO DASH GUAGE) CHANGED OIL AT DEALERSHIP, ONLY TO DRIVE TRUCK LESS THAN 75 MILES AND LOUD KNOCKING IN ENGINE OCCURED, TRUCK WENT INTO "LIMP MODE" HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP FOR A FULL LIFTER REPLACEMENT. AGAIN, COMMON PROBLEM THAT SHOULD OF BEEN RECALLED/REPAIRED BEFORE DRIVERS ARE LEFT STRANDED FACING HUGE EXPENSIVE REPAIR BILLS.

THE PARKING BRAKE LIGHT TURNS ON RANDOMLY, WHEN JUST STARTING THE VEHICLE, WHEN JUST SITTING IN THE PARKINGLOT BEFORE MOVING, WHILE DRIVING, BUT MAINLY WHILE SLOWING DOWN....WHILE USING THE BRAKES. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 OR 5 TIMES NOW, AND THEY CANT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM IN THEIR SHOP, SO THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. IT IS GETTING WORSE NOW. FLASHING AND DINGING WHEN SLOWING DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY, OR WHEN GOING DOWN HILL. I AM WORRIED THAT IT MAY TRIGGER SOMETHING, LIKE THE BRAKES. THE DEALERSHIP HAS WORKED WITH ME, STILL "TRYING" TO FIX EVEN AFTER MY WARANTEE HAS EXPIRED. I ALSO HAVE THE DASH CRACK ISSUE TOO .AND IS VERY CONCERNING BEING ON THE RIM OF THE AIR BAG .THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO AND NOT WAIT TIL SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS. BE PROACTIVE, NOT REACTIVE.

REAR CENTER LEAF SPRING BROKE ON DRIVERS SIDE AND THEN TURNED AND HIT BODY, A MONTH OR SO LATER PASSENGER SIDE DID THE SAME THING. GM KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM , THEY EVEN SEND A LETTER SAYING SO. IT SEEMS TO ME THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IF THESE BROKEN LEAFS ARE FALLING OUT TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY?

BACK UP SENSORS FOR PARK ASSIST DO NOT WORK WHEN A HITCH IS IN THE RECEIVER.

THE DASH ON MY TRUCK HAS CRACKED BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ALSO BY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL. ONLINE FORUMS PROVE THAT GMT900 VEHICLES (TAHOE, SUBURBAN, YUKON, SILVERADO, SIERRA) HAVE THIS ISSUE. THE HEADLIGHTS KEEP BLOWING AND HAVE REPLACED THEM 8 TIMES. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM DUE TO HAVING TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. ALSO BOTH RIGHT SIDE DOORS WILL NOT UNLOCK AND THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WHEN YOU HAVE A SMALL CHILD.

EXCESSIVE OIL USAGE, HAVE HAD IT MONITORED 3 TIMES PER GM. USES OIL EVERY 2 THOUSAND MILES ,THEY ARE AWARE THAT THESE 5.3 V8 ARE DOING SO. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN OUT ON THIS PROBLEM, THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BY OUR GOVERNMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS BLINKED ON AND OFF. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH AND THE BODY CONTROL MODULE, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,843....UPDATED 05/19/16 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE AIRBAG SDM MODULE WAS CORRODED. THE CONSUMER STATED THE FAILURE SHOULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED UNDER THE RECALL. UPDATED 11/2/2017*JS *TR

THE DASH ON THIS TRUCK HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL LOCATIONS. AFRAID WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT IF THE AIR BAGS DISCHARGES CAUSING PARTS OF THE DASH TO BREAK APART AND CAUSE INJURIES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND THE STABILIZER TRACK CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION WHEN DRIVING OVER 50 MPH, THE ENGINE MADE A CLINKING NOISE AND THEN STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I HAVE REGULAR MAINTENANCE DONE ON VEHICLE FROM CERTIFIED GMC DEALERSHIP. HOWEVER, A FEW DAYS AGO WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE BOTH THE ENGINE LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO DISPLAY LOW ENGINE WARNING AND LOSING ALMOST ALL ACCELERATION. TOOK IT IN TO DEALERSHIP, AND WAS CHARGED NEARLY $800 FOR REPAIR.

I HAVE THE ENGINE WITH ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT AND AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INSTATE THE ENGINE GOES IN TO FAILURE MODE. LIFTER COLLAPSED TEARING THE CAM UP AS WELL. SPENT ABOUT 3000 DOLLARS HAVING ISSUE FIXED WITH NEW GM PARTS ONLY TO HAVE IT FAIL AGAIN. CALLED GM AND THEY SAID THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT IT'S FROM FAULTY PARTS AND IT WAS THE CUSTOMERS PROBLEM. THE ENGINE SMOKES BAD AND BURNS OIL AND RAW GAS SITS ON THE PISTON WITHOUT BEING BURNED OFF PROPERLY.

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND SERVICE AIR BAG CAME ON WILL NOT GO OFF DEALER SAID PASSENGER PRESENCE SENSOR FEEDBACK AND PERFORMANCE.

THE DASHBOARD HAS SUBSTANTIAL CRACKING. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT AND HAS NOT HAD ANY CHEMICALS USED TO CLEAN THE DASHBOARD SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED NEW. I'M WORRIED ABOUT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE AIRBAGS IF THEY WERE TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE SHARP PLASTIC EDGES OF THE CRACKS WHEN THEY DEPLOY. I'M ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT BROKEN PLASTIC PIECES BECOMING AIRBORNE IN THE CAB IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, AS I USUALLY HAVE MY 3 YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT.

MY DASH IS CRACKING AND I AM WORRIED IT WILL PUNCTURE THE AIR BAG. THIS CAN NOT BE SAFE. I HAVE READ THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. WHY IS THE ISSUE NOT BEING RESOLVED?

THE DASH ON MY TRUCK HAS CRACKED BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ALSO BY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL. ONLINE FORUMS PROVE THAT GMT900 VEHICLES (TAHOE, SUBURBAN, YUKON, SILVERADO, SIERRA) HAVE THIS ISSUE. IT IS TIME THAT GM STARTS A RECALL FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE DASH DESIGN. IN THE EVENT OF A WRECK AND AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT THE BROKEN DASH COULD EASILY SEND PLASTIC FRAGMENTS THROUGHOUT THE CABIN.

THE CONTACT HAD TO MANUALLY UNLOCK THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR ACTUATORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,000. UPDATED 1/21/16 *SS *CN

DASHBOARD CRACKING

WAS DRIVING AND NOTICED A RATTLE NOISE IN THE DASH. LOOKED AROUND THE TOP OF THE DASH AND FOUND 2 CRACKS (2 AND 3 INCHES LONG) ON THE DASHBOARD ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I NEVER PUT ANYTHING ON THE DASHBOARD. IT LOOKS LIKE PROBABLY A CRACK CAUSED BY THE HEAT.

ABOUT A YEAR GO STARDED TO SEE A CRACK ON THE DASHBOARD BY THE AIR BAG

NOT NECESSARILY AN INCIDENT. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK USED IN JANUARY 2014. THE DASH WAS ALREADY CRACKED. SINCE THEN PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THE DASHES CRACKING ON GM TRUCKS AND YUKONS 2008-2010. MINE SINCE I BOUGHT IT HAS CRACKED MORE, AND COMING LOOSE, ONE CRACK IS NEAR THE AIR BAG. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO GM'S ATTENTION AT MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT AND WANT TO CHARGE ME THE FULL PRICE OF THE DASH TO REPLACE IT WITH THE SAME THING THAT WAS THERE, SO IT CAN BREAK/CRACK AGAIN??? I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP THEY SAY THEYLL FIX IT ONLY FOR A PERCENTAGE FOR THE TIME PAST THE WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE, AND THAT ITS A ONE TIME DEAL I CANT GET THE PRICE AND GO BACK LATER. THIS HAS GONE UNRECOGNISED BY GM AS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD IF AIR BAGS DEPLOY.

THE SPRING ON THE SPARE TIRE HOLDER BROKE AND I FOUND IT ON THE GROUND. THE SPRING ITSELF IS NOT AVAILABLE AND I HAD TO HAVE THE DEALER REPLACE THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY AT A COST OF NEARLY $300. HAD THIS TIRE COME LOOSE DURING HIGH SPEED TRAVEL IT COULD HAVE CAUSED LOSS OF CONTROL. I GUESS I'M LUCKY I FOUND THE SPRING AND THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, A LOUD BANGING SOUND WAS HEARD UNDER THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A STEEL SPRING THAT INDEPENDENTLY FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SPARE TIRE CARRIER ASSEMBLY FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000. UPDATED 8/31/15*CN UPDATED 10/30/2017*CN

UPON ENTERING THE VEHICLE, I NOTICED A LINE ON THE DASHBOARD, AND WHEN I RAN MY FINGERS ACROSS IT TO CHECK IT OUT. I DISCOVERED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED. WHEN I GOT HOME I INSPECTED THE CRACK A LITTLE CLOSER AND REALIZED THAT THIS CRACK HAD BEEN THERE FOR AWHILE, I JUST COULD NOT SEE IT. THE OLDER PART OF THE CRACK WAS BLACK AND THE NEW CRACK WAS GRAY. THIS CRACK IS CONSISTENT WITH OTHER GM TRUCK OWNERS, AND WHAT THEY ARE EXPERIENCING WITH THESE TYPE VEHICLES. THIS CRACK IS IN THE SAME VULNERABLE LOCATION NEAR THE UPPER LEFT CORNER OF THE AIRBAG. I AM CURRENTLY WORKING WITH GMC TO REPLACE THIS FAULTY MATERIAL. THIS TRUCK IS 6 YEARS OLD AND HAS LOW MILEAGE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN IT COMES TO THE AIRBAG DEPLOYING. NO ONE KNOWS HOW MUCH OF THE DASHBOARD WILL DEPLOY WITH THE AIRBAG. GMC NEEDS A RECALL... THE INTERNET IS FULL OF TESTIMONIES ABOUT GM PRODUCTS CRACKING DASHBOARDS. AN INVESTIGATION IS NECESSARY TO FIND OUT ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL USED IN MANUFACTURING THESE DASHBOARDS.

MY DASHBOARD IS DISINTEGRATING. IT STARTED WITH A FEW HAIRLINE CRACKS, BUT NOW THERE ARE FIST SIZED HOLES IN MY DASHBOARD, AND IT IS FULL OF CRASKS. IF I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT, I WOULD HAVE A FACE FULL OF PLASTIC SHARDS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE LOW OIL PRESSURE STOP ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OIL PRESSURE RELEASE VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,908.

I'M HAVING ELECTRICAL/COMPUTER PROBLEMS THAT STARTED OVER A YEAR AGO AND CONTINUE TO INCREASE. FIRST, MY SPEAKERS GO OFF AND ON AS THEY PLEASE. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SPEAKER IS THE ONLY ONE THAT STAYS ON CONSISTENTLY, AND IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HITTING BUMPS OR ANYTHING ELSE. SECOND, MY POWER LOOKS HAVE GONE OUT. MY KEY FOB WILL STILL WORK THEM AND THEY STILL LOCK AND UNLOCK WHEN TRUCK IS MOVED BETWEEN PARK AND DRIVE. BUT THE BUTTONS ON THE DOOR DO NOT WORK. I'VE REPLACED ALL THE FUSES, AND STILL, NOTHING. THIRD, MY CRUISE CONTROL IS GOING OUT. ON A LONG DRIVE I USED IT FOR HALF AND THEN THE OTHER HALF IT WOULDN'T EVEN TRY TO COME BACK ON. A FEW DAYS LATER IT WORKED AGAIN. *TR

I GOT OUT OF MY TRUCK, HAD LEFT THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION, WALKED OVER TO GET SOMETHING OFF THE GROUND AND HEARD THE HORN BLOW. I WALKED BACK OVER TO THE TRUCK TO GET BACK IN AND IT WAS LOCKED. I CALLED ON STAR AND THEY COULDN'T UNLOCK IT SO THEY HAD TO SEND A LOCK-OUT SERVICE TO UNLOCK THE TRUCK. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST FIVE TIMES IN THE PAST THREE YEARS, THREE IN WHICH ON STAR HAD UNLOCKED IT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE FRACTURED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR HAD TO BE OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000. UPDATED 4/20/15*CN

I AM HAVING SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE STABILITRAK ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM. WHENEVER IT GETS COLD ( BELOW APPROX. 38 DEGREES) THE STABILITRAK SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS. EVEN IF I TURN IT OFF IT STILL AFFECTS THE PERFORMANCE OF THE ENGINE (LOW SPEED, ENGINE HESITATING). THE TRUCK RUNS FINE IN WARMER WEATHER JUST CRAPS OUT WHEN ITS COLD. I SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER INSTANCES OF DISTRESSED DRIVERS WHO ARE HAVING THEIR 'TRAC ' 'STAB, ABS LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHTS EITHER GOING ON ONE AT A TIME OR SIMULTANEOUSLY BECAUSE OF THIS SYSTEM. THIS IS A STUPID SYSTEM THAT NEEDS TO BE REDESIGNED OR ELIMINATED ALL TOGETHER. IN ANY EVENT I DON'T FEEL AS THOUGH I SHOULD BE THE ONE TO PAY FOR THE MANUFACTURES MISTAKES IN DESIGN. *TR

IN COLD WEATHER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DOES NOT WORK, THE ONLY THING THAT DOES WORK IS THE BACK LIGHTING. *TR

I' M WRITING IN TOO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE DASHBOARD CLUSTER ON MY 2009 GMC SIERRA. I SEE THAT A RECALL ALONG WITH A LAWSUIT WITH THIS SAME ISSUE WAS SUBMITTED. I HAVE BEEN GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH GMC ON THIS ISSUE SINCE 2011. THEY STATED IT WAS A FUSE AND REPLACED THE FUSE , BUT MY DASHBOARD ALONG WITH ALL THE GAUGES GO OUT EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS. I WAS TOLD THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS BUT OBVIOUSLY THEY DID. THIS ISSUE WAS NOTED AFTER A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT WAS FILED. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED IN 2011. THE LAST TIME MY DASHBOARD WENT OUT (WHILE DRIVING) WAS 10/14/2014. *TR

THANKFULLY I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY ROAD AT ABOUT 25-30 MPH. WHEN I HEARD A LOUD SQUEAK AND A LITTLE NOISE. I THOUGHT THAT SOMETHING MUST HAVE FALLEN IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK. I LOOKED IN MY MIRROR AND SAW MY SPARE TIRE LAYING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LANE. THANKFULLY, THERE WERE NO CARS FOLLOWING. I TURNED AROUND AND FOUND THAT THE CABLE THAT HOLDS THE SPARE TIRE UP UNDER THE BED OF THE TRUCK HAD BROKEN AND DROPPED THE TIRE AND THE COMPONENTS THAT HOLD THE SPARE TIRE IN PLACE WHERE LAYING ON THE PAVEMENT. I NORMALLY DRIVE ON A VERY BUSY INTERSTATE ROAD AT 70 MPH. I CAN NOT EVEN IMAGINE WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPEN THIS HAD HAPPENED ON THAT ROAD! I AM SURE THAT SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED! I HAVE CONTACTED A DEALER AND I AM STILL WAITING TO HEAR WHAT THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME TO FIX THE ISSUE. *JS

POWER LOCKS QUIT WORKING HAVE TO USE THE KEY TO OPEN DOORS. *TR

ABOUT 2 MONTHS AFTER WE PURCHASED OUR PRE-OWNED 2009 GMC SIERRA DENALI WE STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE POWER AND ALL SENSORS GOING OFF. THE SENSORS START GOING OFF THE STABILITY CONTROL CUTS OFF IT SAYS ENGINE POWER REDUCED THEN DOESN'T WANT TO SHIFT AND KILLS IN MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. IT WILL DO IT FOR A FEW DAYS AND THEN JUST STARTS WORKING RIGHT AGAIN. SO WE NEVER KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN OR WHERE WE WILL BE. IT'S LIKE IT'S NOT RUNNING ON ALL CYLINDERS. *TR

HIT A POTHOLE FULL OF WATER WITH RIGHT REAR TIRE WHILE MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN. THE WATER SPLASHED UP AND ENTERED INTO THE FUEL SYSTEM CONTROL MODULE THROUGH A POOR SEAL CAUSING THE UNIT TO SHUT OFF FUEL TO THE TRUCK. TRUCK STALLED OUT AND WOULD NOT RESTART BLOCKING TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS LIT, AND THE TRUCK HAD THE FOLLOWING CODES SET: P069E, P0231, P025A, P064A. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO HAYDOCY GMC AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A FAULTY FUEL SYSTEM CONTROL MODULE. THEY REPLACED AND REPROGRAMMED THE NEW UNIT TO THE TRUCK. THEY RETURNED THE DEFECTIVE PART TO ME AT MY REQUEST AND IT WAS DRIPPING WATER OUT OF THE SEAL. THIS IS SIMILAR TO RECALL 09V154000 FOR SIMILAR 2009 GM VEHICLES THAT WERE ASSEMBLED IN LATE 2008 JUST LIKE MY TRUCK IN WHICH THE SEAL WAS DEFECTIVE AND WOULD ALLOW WATER TO SEEP INTO THE FUEL SYSTEM CONTROL MODULE. I BELIEVE THIS RECALL SHOULD HAVE INCLUDED ADDITIONAL VEHICLE MODELS INCLUDING THE GMC SIERRA. I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO PROVIDE ANY DOCUMENTATION, PICTURES, OR PARTS NECESSARY TO ASSIST. *TR

THERE IS A CRACK IN MY TRUCK'S DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE,RIGHT NEXT TO THE AIRBAG SECTION.THE DASHBOARD CRACKED ON ITS OWN,AS IT WAS NEVER SUBJECTED TO ANY KIND OF AN IMPACT OR FORCE. MY REASONABLE DOUBT IS THAT IT CRACKED DUE TO BEING MADE OF LOW QUALITY MATERIAL. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY LOCAL GMC DEALERSHIP,SAME PLACE WHERE I ALWAYS TAKE MY TRUCK FOR ANYTHING CONCERNING MY TRUCK. WHEN I BROUGHT MY TRUCK AND SHOWED A SERVICE DEPT. EMPLOYEE, I WAS TOLD THAT NEITHER MY REGULAR,NOR MY EXTENDED VEHICLE WARRANTY COVERED THE DAMAGE,AND IF I WANTED IT REPLACED I WOULD NEED TO PAY ~$250!!! I WAS STUNNED AND APPALLED THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY TO REPLACE SOMETHING THAT WAS CLEARLY A LOW QUALITY PRODUCT,SOMETHING I ALREADY PAID FOR WHEN I BOUGHT THE TRUCK BRAND NEW. I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO THAT DEALERSHIP, OR ANOTHER GMC DEALERSHIP AS A MATTER OF FACT, EVER AGAIN, JUST OUT OF SPITE. I FEEL CHEATED AND CONNED, AS NOT ONLY DID THE GMC NOT WANT TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD,IT WAS NOT EVEN COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY I PURCHASED WHEN I GOT THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW. I SUSPECT GMC KNEW ABOUT THIS ISSUE SO THEY INTENTIONALLY DID NOT COVER IT UNDER THE VEHICLE WARRANTY. MY REAL CONCERN ISN'T IN THE AESTHETICS OF A CRACKED DASHBOARD,IT IS FOR THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGERS THAT DRIVE IN MY TRUCK. IF,GOD FORBID,I WAS TO GET INTO A CAR ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS, THERE IS A VERY REAL CHANCE THAT THE AIRBAG MIGHT GET PUNCTURED ON THE EDGE OF THE CRACKED DASHBOARD AND FAIL TO DO ITS FUNCTION AS IT WOULD IMMEDIATELY DEFLATE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD AND ONE THAT MIGHT COST SOMEONE THEIR LIFE,DO WE REALLY NEED TO WAIT FOR SOMETHING BAD TO HAPPEN (LIKE THE GMC ISSUE WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH WHICH COST PEOPLE THEIR LIVES AFTER THEIR GMC VEHICLE UNEXPECTEDLY SHUT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY!!) BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE AND GMC DOES THE RIGHT THING AND OWNS UP TO ITS MISTAKE? *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45MPH IN FALL RIVER WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN WE HEARD A LARGE BANG UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE, UPON LOOKING IN THE REAR MIRROR I NOTICED A LARGE STEEL ITEM SHOOT OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE SLIDING FAST BEHIND THE VEHICLE WITH SPARKS NOTICED AS IT WAS DARK, AND INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHICH HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT AND AVOID THE PROPELLED STEEL LEAF SPRING. NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED, LEAF SPRING WAS RECOVERED FROM THE ROAD AFTER PULLING VEHICLE OVER AND NOTED IT CAME FROM RIGHT REAR OF VEHICLE WHERE IT HAD SNAPPED OFF. THIS INCIDENT CREATED AN EXTREMELY POTENTIALLY SERIOUS CONDITION WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED IT TO GO INTO THE VEHICLE TRAVELING BEHIND US. UPON BRINGING THIS VEHICLE TO KELLY'S TIRES IN MIDDLEBORO, THEY STATED AND I QUOTE "LET ME GUESS YOUR VEHICLE IS A 2009 SIERRA, THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR VEHICLE, BUT THERE IS NO RECALL AT THIS TIME". THIS PROBLEM IS SERIOUS, NOT TO MENTION VERY COSTLY FOR THE CONSUMER TO REPAIR A FAULTY PART! THIS VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT IF IT HAPPENS AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, BECAUSE AT THE LOW RATE OF 45, WE WERE VERY LUCKY IT DID NOT KILL SOMEONE. NO EXCUSE GM NEEDS TO RECALL/REPLACE/REIMBURSE ITS CONSUMERS...UPDATED 06/03/14 *BF *TT UPDATED 8/22/2017

THE POWER DOOR LOCKS WON'T LOCK AND UNLOCK. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED ONE DOOR LOCK MECHANISM AT MY COST. NOW A SECOND LOCK WON'T FUNCTION. THIS IS WELL KNOWN BY GM. THEY REFUSE TO RECALL IT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. GM NEEDS TO REPAIR THESE DOOR LOCKS. *TR

ONE 2" LONG RUNNING FROM THE AIR BAG COVER FORWARD TO EDGE OF DASH SECTION. 2 CRACKS ON BACK OF INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ONE ON RIGHT SIDE 4" LONG, AND ONE ON THE LEFT SIDE ABOUT 6" LONG. VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM THAT GM IS IGNORING. *TR

I PURCHASED 2 RUGGED RIDGE FRONT FLOOR MATS FOR MY 2009 GMC EXTENDED CAB 1500 SIERRA ON 11/15/13. LAST WEEK ON 1/9/14, I WAS ACCELERATING TO GET ON THE INTERSTATE AT FULL THROTTLE. THE ACCELERATOR STUCK DOWN AT FULL THROTTLE AFTER I LIGHTENED PEDDLE PRESSURE TO SLOW DOWN. AT FIRST I HIT THE BRAKES BUT COULDN'T SLOW THE VEHICLE. I THEN TURNED THE IGNITION KEY TO DISENGAGE THE IGNITION. THE TRUCK BEGAN TO SLOW. I TURNED THE IGNITION BACK ON AND THE TRUCK WAS STILL AT FULL THROTTLE AND I NEARLY REAR ENDED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I THEN PULLED THE FLOOR MAT BACK WITH MY HEEL AND THE ACCELERATOR RELEASED. *TR

TRANSMISSION DELAY FROM PARK TO DRIVE. AS TRANSMISSION MOVES INTO DRIVE THE TRUCK JERKS FORWARD VIOLENTLY. PARK TO REVERSE DID NOT SEEM TO BE A PROBLEM. DEALER WORKED ON THE TRUCK FOR APPROXIMATELY 8 HOURS, FLUSHED TRANSMISSION, AND PERFORMED OIL CHANGE, DID NOT NOTICE ANY METAL IN THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AND SOUGHT AN UPDATE FOR THE TCM (WAS UP-TO-DATE); HOWEVER, A SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER WAS SEEN IN THE OIL PAN. DEALER PERFORMED A TEST DRIVE AND THE TRUCK APPEARED TO BE BACK IN WORKING CONDITION. OWNER ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE TRUCK OUT OF THE DEALER LOT BUT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT ENGAGE. OWNER ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE TRUCK IN REVERSE, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT ENGAGE. TRUCK WAS LEFT AT THE DEALER FOR FURTHER EVALUATION. NO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AT THIS TIME. TRANSMISSION STILL UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

MY DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR HAS BEGUN WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. THIS IS THE SECOND DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR ON MY VEHICLE TO FAIL, THE FIRST WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND THE GM MECHANIC TOLD ME THEY HAVE REPLACED NUMEROUS ACTUATORS. THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY LOCKS ALL DOORS WHEN DRIVEN AND UNLOCKS WHEN STOPPED HOWEVER THE FAULTY ACTUATOR DOES NOT ALWAYS LOCK OR UNLOCK. THESE ACTUATORS HAVE A LONG HISTORY OF BEING DEFECTIVE AND GM IS AWARE OF IT BUT REFUSES TO RECALL THE FAULTY ACTUATOR EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE LITERALLY REPLACED THOUSANDS OF THESE UNITS. THESE FAULTY ACTUATORS ARE A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT A DOOR COULD FAIL TO UNLOCK EFFECTIVELY TRAPPING THE OCCUPANTS. THE FAULTY ACTUATORS ARE ALSO A SECURITY CONCERN BECAUSE THEY COULD FAIL TO SECURE THE VEHICLE ALLOWING ANYONE ACCESS TO IT'S CONTENTS. *TR

DRIVING ONLY 20 MPH IN THE PROCESS OF STOPPING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP. ENGINE RAN VERY ROUGH. AFTER STOPPING THE VEHICLE WOULD ONLY ACCELERATE UP TO APPROX 25 MPH.

DROVE LESS THAN 50 FEET AND WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE. THE RIGHT FRONT INNER TIE ROD HAD FAILED CAUSING LOSS OF STEERING. EXAMINATION OF THE FRACTURE SURFACE OF THE TIE ROD SHOWED A FATIGUE FRACTURE THAT HAD PROPAGATED TO OVER 1/3RD OF THE CROSS SECTIONAL AREA. PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE FRACTURE SURFACE WERE SENT TO A WORLD RENOWNED METALLURGIST AND WAS CONFIRMED TO BE A FATIGUE FRACTURE. I CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER CARE REGARDING MY SAFETY CONCERNS AND WAS ASSIGNED CASE NUMBER [XXX]. GM WAS COMPLETELY UNINTERESTED IN THE FACT THAT THE ROD FAILED AND HAD A PRE-EXISTING FATIGUE FRACTURE IN THE ROD. I SUGGESTED THAT THEIR ENGINEERS SHOULD EXAMINE THE PARTS TO DETERMINE WHETHER MY CONCERNS WERE VALID. AGAIN, THEIR REPRESENTATIVE WAS COMPLETELY UNINTERESTED IN EVALUATING THE SAFETY ASPECTS OF THE FAILURE OR ACCESSING THE PARTS FOR FURTHER ANALYSIS. HAD THE ROD END FAILED AT HIGHWAY SPEED, THIS EVENT WOULD LIKELY HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC AND ENDED IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. GM STATED THEY WOULD NOT PURSUE THE ISSUE FURTHER BECAUSE THERE WAS AN IMPACT INVOLVED IN THE FAILURE EVEN THOUGH THE IMPACT WAS LESS THAN 1/2 MPH.

OBSTRUCTED VIEW OUT OF WINDSHIELD ON PASSENGER SIDE. THE WIPER ONLY COVERS 2/3RDS OF THE PASSENGER SIDE OF WINDSHIELD.
