General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2007-2008 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 3500 and GMC Sierra 2500 and 3500 vehicles equipped with non-desiccated, passenger frontal air bag inflators containing phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant that were used as interim remedy parts for previous Takata recalls. These inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, high temperatures, and high temperature cycling.
Consequence: An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the front passenger or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag inflators, free of charge. The recall began February 11, 2020. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC customer service at 1-866-522-9559. GM's number for this recall is N192290990.

I purchased my new 2007 Chevy duramax diesel with an already installed fabtech lift kit. My pitman arm has snapped 3 times since I purchased my truck leaving me with complete steering loss. I have had to replace all steering components several times. My truck is unsafe due to a fabtech lift kit that the dealer installed before I purchased it. Led Schwab was the installer. I have several complaints with nhtsa and vsh.
Rattling noise in intermediate shaft of steering column and key tumbler is sticky
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 3500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REFUELING, DIESEL FUEL SPRAYED BACK OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE DESIGN OF THE FILLER NECK TO THE FUEL TANK WAS DEFECTIVE. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO REACH THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 285,064.
WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 35 MPH, I HAD TO STOP FOR A GARBAGE TRUCK DOING A TRASH PICKUP. WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES ON MY PICKUP, THE BRAKES TOTALLY FAILED AND I NEARLY DROVE ANOTHER CAR INTO THE BACK OF THE GARBAGE TRUCK. THAT AVERTED CRASH WOULD CERTAINLY HAVE KILLED THE CAR'S DRIVER. I AVOIDED A CRASH BY A RAPID TURN INTO THE ONCOMING LANE JUST AS A CAR COMING TOWARD ME CLEARED THE OPPOSING LANE. MY TRUCK HAS BEEN MAINTAINED PROFESSIONALLY AND THE BRAKE FAILURE WAS A GREAT SHOCK TO ME. MY TRUCK IS A 2007 CHEVY SILVERADO 3500 DUALLY.

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2007-2011 Chevrolet Silverado HD 2500/3500 trucks manufactured January 18, 2007, to June 22, 2011, and GMC Sierra HD 2500/3500 trucks manufactured January 22, 2007, to June 21, 2011, and equipped with an auxiliary battery. Owners may unknowingly draw too much current through the vehicle's trailer harness resulting in the melting of fusible link for the auxiliary battery.
Consequence: If the fusible link melts it may come into contact with adjacent components, damage the electrical center cover, the nearby wiring harness conduit and other vehicle components, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy: GM will notify owners and dealers will replace the jumper harness with one that includes a 40 amp inline fuse, and provide the owner with supplemental Owner Manual information, free of charge. The recall began on August 29, 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 14260.

Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag inflator, free of charge. The recall began on July 27, 2015.
