2013 GMC Sierra 1500 Problems & Complaints

Failure of frame on left side of vehicle between frame rail and fuel tank. For a approx 10 year old vehicle that is garaged and does not drive in inclement weather this SHOULD NOT be happening.

The contact owns a 2013 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that while having the vehicle inspected, the vehicle failed inspection due to the rear subframe being detached from rust. The contact stated that the failure was related to Technical Service Bulletin: 19-NA-255. The contact used the undercarriage wash due to residing in a snow and salt State. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 75,000. The VIN was not available.

On 9-12-25 I was pulling a utility trailer when I went to back it in the driveway my 2013 gmc 1500 5.3 stalled . I restarted it only to have a lifter claddering !!!! I checked the oil it was good ! Oil pressure was good not over heating . It is just the lifter!!!!!! After doing some investigating I found that this is a common problem with GM's 5.3 with the AFM system!!! Companies should be held accountable for fraudulent designs!!! This is Not the first time for GM screwing consumers!!! GM had a similar situation back in the 70s and 80s Cadillac!!!! I bought this truck from a GM Dealer with 67000 miles only drove it in 1 winter it now has 149900 miles!!!! 5 years !!! Change oil and filter every 3000-4000 miles ,use Mobile 5w- 30w !!!! I feel a recall should be made to hold GM Accountable for what they new was a problem but produced and Screwed consumers to make SALES !!!!!!!!!!!!! Ask any quality Repair facility that works on GM'S or Even Auto Parts personal. When it stalled it left me in the middle of the Road with traffic!!! Even if it did start right back up !! Clacking!! The cost is unbearable!!!!!!

DURING AN OIL CHANGE IN MAY I WAS INFORMED THAT MY FRAME WAS EXTREMELY ROTTED AND WAS IN JEOPARDY OF CRACKING IN HALF . THE FURTHER I DIG INTO THIS, I'M FINDING THAT GM IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE. THE VEHICLE IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION.

Roof rust at the windshield on a perfect condition vehicle. Paint is excellent on rest of vehicle. No damage or accidents and properly maintained. Premature rust is now visible at the roof of the of the vehicle. Soon could rot and allow water into cab of vehicle.

The frame on my 2013 GMC Sierra has a considerable amount of rust & corrosion on it, to the point of being a safety concern because it's actually rusted through to where there are holes rusted through the frame!!

I found out that the frame was rusted through beside the gas tank and was told there was a memo put out to the dealers that there was a problem with the frames not being coated properly and if the customer notice it they were to repair it. My truck was service regularly and undercoated regularly by the dealer the body is rust free but I am being told the frame is on safe and can't be repaired and GM will not make it right even though they knew there was a problem. I pull a travel trailer and if the frame was to break in half I am sure someone would be seriously hurt or killed.

I hit a bump and both rear shock mounts blew off the rear cross member because the frame is rusted out despite having rust protection. It is available for inspection. The truck then began bouncing wildly. Meanwhile the underside of the bed isn't rusted at all, not one speck. It just seems weird to me, reminds me of the Toyota frame problems from a while back. It has not been inspected by a mechanic or insurance, my insurance company didn't seem to care in the slightest. I have had traction control and abs warnings on for a while but my mechanic said that was a faulty tire sensor.

Frame rust on left rail at fuel tank . The truck was a 47 thousand dollar truck bought new 1 owner 11 years old frame has holes when is gm going to be held accountable. Toyota had frame recalls for this same issue .25 year + gm owner can't see me buying another gm product

Rear half of Frame Crossmembers rotted away between the Frame rails. Took vehicle in for routine safety inspection, and the mechanic determined that the cross members to which the rear shocks and the Gas tank were attached had both broken free from the frame rails due to rust. The entire back end of the vehicle is suspended from the frame with only the leaf spring mounts. This rust is excessive and far exceeds the rust on other points on the frame and undercarriage of the vehicle.

I’ve only had the truck for 1 years and the frame is so deteriorated and rusted. My frame is now cracked/damaged. I’ve read up on the same manufacturer/trucks and it seems like an ongoing problem.

I have been told by an independent Maine state inspection company that my left front frame rail has perforating corrosion and will not pass inspection. I have not had GMC inspect this yet but I do not think they will repair it. This truck is 10 years old and only has 59,000 miles on it. It looks like new (except for some rear bumper damage) It is unusable now and I'm afraid the left front suspension will collapse. This is completely unacceptable. Please help, Thank you.

Dash has at least 7 different cracks and failing in several spots

Passenger side leaf spring "failed"- the middle "stiffener" rear section broke off/ fell to the road (see picture below with leaf spring removed). Fortunately, I was turning into side street doing about 15mph negating any safety issues- things could have been much different if at highway speeds. The truck had some significant miles (125k) but they were 95% highway miles though I do considerable highway miles with "treated" roads over Washington state passes. Vehicle was repaired by Haselwood GMC/Chev Dealership in Bremerton, Wa. on 5/25/22. Maintenance/Repair supervisor chalked it up to routine wear and tear.

WHEN THE DEALERSHIP INSTALLED THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DUE TO A RECALL THE DASH CRACKED WHILE THEY WERE WORKING ON THE TRUCK

The interior and exterior door handles broke on both doors on my 2013 GMC SIERRA truck. There was no warnings and my safety was at risk because the only way to enter or exit the vehicle is to crawl out the window.

I am a mechanic by trade and I noticed on 10/28/21 that gas was leaking from my truck's fuel pump. So I ordered a new fuel pump and prepared to install it last weekend. After removing the fuel tank it became obvious that I had a more serious problem with my truck. First, the fuel leak was from a rusted out fuel pump pressure line (on the actual fuel pump). This, in and of itself could have caused a fire as it was probably spraying gas directly onto the muffler! But then I find something much worse...the Fuel Tank Support Bar was completely rotted out! The Fuel Tank Support bar is part of the frame that hold the gas tank in place!! I guess I should be happy that it had a gas leak because if it hadn’t, the gas tank could have easily fallen out while I was driving it & could have killed both my wife & I! The truck is only 8 years old and I was shocked to see it in this condition. I have worked on cars that are over 30 years old and I have never seen this kind of rot on a frame! I purchased the truck in 2016 and I'm still making monthly payments on it! I would like to know what GMC is going to do to repair this! I have called the Dealership that I purchased it from but they were of no help. I anxiously await your reply! Thank you!

Received notice in March 2021 of defective passenger side air bag inflator which, due to environmental related degradation can explode during deployment sending metal fragments through the air bag into the vehicle risking serious injury or death. Notice further states parts are not currently available to repair the defect. No notice was received as of 9/15/21, and in checking on NHTSA and GM websites on this topic, there is no indication of when or if it will ever be repaired. This complaint is initiated to get specific information how long a passenger in my vehicle is at risk of serious injury or death from this defective air bag inflator.

MY GMC SIERRA 1500 HAS NUMEROUS CRACKS ACROSS THE UPPER DASH THAT HAVE APPEARED OVER THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. I ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THE DASHBOARD REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY BUT WAS DENIED. I RECENTLY HAD THE PASSENGER AIRBAG REPLACED DUE TO A RECALL. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD, AND WHEN THEY REPLACED THE ORIGINAL CRACKED DASHBOARD, MANY OF THE CRACKED PIECES DID NOT LINE UP, LEAVING THE DASH LOOKING FURTHER DAMAGED. PLEASE FORCE GMC TO OFFER A RECALL OF THE SUBSTANDARD DASHBOARD, OR REPLACE THE DASHBOARD DURING THE REPLACEMENT OF THE AIRBAG.

CRACKED DASHBOARD

A CRACK SUDDENLY APPEARED AT THE CORNER OF MY DASHBOARD AND THE DASHBOARD AIR BAG COVER THAT OPENS WHEN DEPLOYED. I HAVE PARKED MY GMC IN THE GARAGE EVERY DAY SINCE I BROUGHT IT HOME FROM THE DEALER. I USE A WINDSHIELD REFLECTOR WHEN PARKED OUTSIDE AT THE MARKET ECT... I HAVE READ ON LINE THAT THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THIS HAPPENING TO OWNERS OF LIKE GMC'S AND YEAR MINE IS A 2013 SIERRA 1500. IT APPEARED SUDDENLY FOR NO REASON. I FEEL IT CAN AFFECT THE AIR BAGS ABILITY TO DEPLOY CORRECTLY AFFECTING MINE OR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY IF IN AN ACCIDENT. I WOULD THINK GM SHOULD REPAIR THIS ISSUE AT NO CHARGE TO ME, IT'S A MANUFACTURE DEFECT.

ON OR ABOUT 10-14-2020 I HAD GOT A CALL FROM MY NIECE THAT SHE WAS AT A PARKING LOT AND THE TRUCK DIDN'T WANT TO RUN THE SAME. SHE WAS PASSING A INTERSECTION WHEN SHE HEARD A VERY LOUD POP NOISE AND A VERY SCARY NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE NOISE DID SHACK HER SOME BUT WHEN SHE NOTICES THE TRUCK HAD LOST ITS POWER SHE WAS MORE SCARE THAT SHE WAS GOING TO GET HIT BY A OTHER CAR CAME OUT TO BE THE LIFTERS AND CAMSHAFT . WHERE THEY BEEN HAVING CLASS ACTSIONS LAW SUITS WITH GM MOTORS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM WITH OTHER GMC YEAR FROM 2009-2015 5.3 VORTEX ENGINS AND GMC KNEW ABOUT IT BEFORE THE SOLD THE VERY FIRST TRUCK ITS A $10,000.00 DALLORS REPAIR AND WITH THE BANK FINANCE I WILL BE PAYING MORE THEN 25,000.00 AFTER COST AND THIS TRUCK BLUE BOOK ITS AT 15,000.00 LAST TIME I CHECK IT SO ITS NOT WORTH PUTTING SO MUCH MORE MONEY FOR THAT YEAR OF TRUCK. I HAD TRYED TO WORK THINGS OUT WITH THE DEALERSHIP AS WELL WITH GM MOTORS AND HAD NO LUCK OR EVEN A CALL BACK FROM BOTH SIDES. I ASK THAT IF YOU CAN INVESTIGATE THIS MATTER SOME MORE I WILL GLADLY APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

THE DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES, AND I BELIEVE, IT IS GOING TO EFFECT THE AIR BAG SYSTEM AND DASHBOARD WIRING, WHICH COULD LEAD TO THE PASSENGER AIR BAG NOT DEPLOYING OR ENGINE STALLING AT SPEED BECAUSE OF PIECES OF DASH FALLING INTO THE WIRES.

I WENT AND GOT AN ALIGNMENT,A DAY AFTER THE STABILITRAK AND TRACTION CONTROL MESSAGE CAME ON. I WENT BACK TO SEE IF IT COULD BE FIX IT AND WAS TOLD IT DIDN'T COME ON WHEN THEY TEST DROVE IT. THE SAME DAY IT CAME ON AGAIN, SO I WENT TO A GMC DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD MY STEERING WHEEL POS SENSOR IS BAD. I WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET,GOING AND COMING FROM WORK(HAPPENS IN SAME EXACT SPOT ON THE STREET(S).THIS IS MY ONLY FORM OF TRANSPORTATION AND WHAT I NEED TO DO.

DASH IS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES. MAIN CONCERN IS AROUND AIRBAGS. I HAVE USED WINDSHIELD COVER TO PROTECT FROM AN DAMAGE SINCE IT WAS NEW.

HEARD A LAUD POP AND GRINDING NOISE ON MY 2013 5.3 VORTEX V8 GMC FROM THE MOTOR WHERE I HAD TO STOP IT BECAUSE I THOUGHT MY MOTOR WAS GOING TO LUCK UP ON ME. I PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ON MISSOURI AND TRIVIZ. WHERE MY WIFE HAD TO PICK ME UP 1 HOUR AFTER THE THE FACT TO HAUL IT BACK HOME. GOT HOME WHERE I DID MY RESEARCH TO FIND PARTS AND LABOR COAST FOR MY TRUCK AND CAME ACROSS SOME ACTIVE CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS ON GMC FOR SAME TAPE OF ENGINE THE 5.3 VORTEX AND SAME AND 1 YEAR OLDER OR 1 YEAR NEWER HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WHERE CASES BEEN OPEN SINCE 2016 AND STILL OPEN NOW FOR GMC TO PERFORM THAT KINDA OF ENGINE TO BE CALLED AS A RE-CALL. I THEN GOT A HOLD OF GMC MOTORS TO SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO FOR ME NOT BEING THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS KIND OF PROBLEM TO SEE IF THEY CAN HELP ME IN ANY KIND OF WAY AND THEY RESPOND WAS FOR ME TO TAKE IT TO A CERTIFIED DEALER IN LAS CRUCES, NM FOR GMC. I DID JUST THAT THEN WHERE I WAS REJECTED BY THE DEALER BECAUSE THEY HAD NO INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT I AND MY WIFE JUST HAD DISCOVER BACK HOME. THE REASON WHY GM MOTORS WANTED ME TO TAKE THE TRUCK WAS FOR THEM TO DO A FULL DYNASTIC ON THE TRUCK TO SEE IF IT WAS THE LIFTERS THAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. CAME TO BE IT WAS THE LIFTERS AND AS WELL FOR THE CAMSHAFT WHERE THEY GIVE ME ALL PAPERWORK ABOUT MY TRUCK AND HOW MUCH TO FIX IT WE ARE LOOKING AT 5,000.00 TO REPLACE THE LIFTERS AND CAMSHAFT OR 10,000.00 TO PUT A NEW MOTOR AND THE GM MOTORS DENIED TO HELP OR TO FIX OR REPLACE THE MOTOR AND CAMSHAFT OR EVEN TRY TO MEET ME HALF WAY ON EXPENSES FOR MY TRUCK TO GET IT UP AND RUNNING AGAIN. WE GOT BACK HOME AND TALKED TO A LAWYER THAT BEEN FIGHTING SOME CASES SINCE 2016 AND ADDED HE ADDED ME TO THE OTHERS CASES FOR THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR GMC NOT FALLOWING WITH THERE RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THERE ACTION ABOUT THE 5.3 VORTEX FROM 2012-2015 MAKES AND MODELS WITH THIS KINDA OF MOTORS

A YEAR AGO I BOUGHT 4 NEW HUNCOOK TIRES, 4 MONTHS AGO ONE GOT TREAD SEPARATION SO I REPLACED IT WITH A NEW HUNCOOK. NOW TWO DAYS AGO ANOTHER HUNCOOK TIRE GOT TREAT SEDATION. SO I CAN'T TRUST HUNCOOK AS IT'S TIRES ARE UNSAFE TO DRIVE ON. THE TIRE SIZE IS 265/70/17

ON 8-25-20, I TOOK MY 2013 GMC SIERRA TO AN AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR SHOP IN GENESEE, WI, FOR A BRAKES AND SHOCKS INSPECTION/REPAIR. THEY REFUSED TO WORK ON IT BECAUSE THEY SAID THE FRAME WAS 'BROKEN AND CRACKED' DUE TO EXCESSIVE RUST PERFORATING THE FRAME. THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME MY SIERRA SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN BECAUSE IT IS UNSAFE, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE WORST FRAME DAMAGE IS IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THE GAS TANK. I WAS SHOCKED BECAUSE MY VEHICLE IS IN OTHERWISE EXCELLENT CONDITION! ON 8-26-20, I CALLED AND SENT PHOTOS (SEE ATTACHED) TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE GMC DEALERSHIP IN WAUPACA, WI, WHERE I HAD PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW. HE STATED HE WOULD NOT DRIVE MY SIERRA AND NOR SHOULD I. HE REFERRED THE MATTER TO HIS GM REP TO SET UP AN OFFICIAL GM PET CASE. THE CASE WAS SUBSEQUENTLY REFUSED DUE TO 'NO HISTORY' AT THE WAUPACA DEALERSHIP. THEY SUGGESTED I CALL A GMC DEALER IN WAUKESHA WHERE I DO HAVE AN ESTABLISHED HISTORY. THE SERVICE MANAGER THERE ALSO SAID MY SIERRA SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN AND THAT 'THE FRAME COULD BUCKLE IF PUT ON A HOIST.' HE ALSO REFUSED TO HELP ME. ON 9-2-20, I CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER CARE AND RECEIVED AN ESCALATED CASE NUMBER. ON 9-9-20, A SENIOR ADVISOR FROM CUSTOMER CARE SAID SHE WOULD LOOK INTO THE MATTER BUT COULD NOT GUARANTEE ANYTHING BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS 'OUT OF WARRANTY' WITH ITS 115,000 MILES. ON 9-17-20, THE ADVISOR SAID THE ONLY THING GM WOULD DO IS OFFER ME A $2,500 ALLOWANCE IF I WOULD TRADE IN MY GMC FOR A NEW MODEL. I REJECTED THIS OFFER AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THE RUSTED AND PERFORATED FRAME IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT ALL OWNERS OF 2013 SIERRAS SHOULD IMMEDIATELY BE MADE AWARE OF!

CRACKS ON UPPER HARD PLASTIC DASH PANEL JUST TO THE LEFT OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. WORRIED THAT IF THE BAG DEPLOYS IT WILL CAUSE HARD PLASTIC SHARDS TO FILL THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. ANOTHER CRACK HAS DEVELOPED JUST TO THE LEFT OF THE STEERING WHEEL IN APPROXIMATELY THE SAME PLACE. HAD THIS ALSO HAPPEN ON A 2009 GMC YUKON WHICH WE HAVE SINCE SOLD.

PAINT ABOVE THE WINDSHIELD IS SEPARATING FROM THE PRIMER IN LARGE SHEETS. ONE LARGE AREA APPROXIMATELY THE SIZE OF A VOLLEYBALL WITH MULTIPLE SMALL AREAS ALONG THE EDGE OF THE WINDSHIELD ACROSS THE TOP. ALSO HAS AN AREA ON THE RIGHT REAR QUARTER PANEL THE SIZE OF A HALF DOLLAR WHERE THE PAINT SEPARATED FROM THE PRIMER AND FELL OFF. VEHICLE STAYS PARKED MOST OF THE TIME IN THE GARAGE. I FIRST NOTICED THE PAINT PEELING AFTER COMING OUT OF WORK WHERE THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN PARKED IN THE SUN.

THE EDGE WHERE THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND THE ROOF MEET THE PAINT HAS FLAKED AWAY AND STARTED TO RUST THE UNDERCOAT.

THE DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED IN THE AREA OF THE AIRBAGS AND INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CRACKS OCCURRED WHILE PARKED OVERNIGHT IN MY DRIVEWAY. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL GMC DEALER WHO INFORMED ME THIS WAS A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH GMC VEHICLES. I ASKED IF GM WOULD COVER THE REPAIR SINCE THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH GM VEHICLES. I WAS INFORMED IT WAS NOT COVERED BY GM AND I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF REPAIRS WHICH TOTAL APPROXIMATELY $1000.00. I BELIEVE THESE CRACKS CREATE A SAFETY HAZARD AND ARE A RESULT OF DEFECTIVE PARTS INSTALLED BY GM. *TR

TRUCK HAS A VIBRATION IN BACK END WHEN YOU REACH 50 MILES PER HOUR DEALER CLAIM THEY NEED TO REBUILD REAR DIFFERENTIAL COST $3300.00 TRUCK IS ONLY 7 YEARS OLD ONE OWNER

AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH BRAKING THE ABS ACTIVATES IN A NON EMERGENCY STOP AND THE BRAKES DO NOT WORK WELL, VEHICLE CONTINUES TO MOVE.

DASH BOARD ON MY GMC TRUCK IS CRACKED IN THREE PLACES. ONE OF THE PLACES IS A CORNER ON THE DASH THAT ENCASES THE AIRBAG. I HAVE RELIGIOUSLY COVERED THE DASH SINCE DAY ONE, BECAUSE I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM ON MY 2007 SIERRA. DASH CRACKED IN ONE PLACE. DEALER REPLACED IT FOR FREE.

I WAS UNDERNEATH MY TRUCK FOR A MINOR SENSOR REPAIR AROUND THE END OF MARCH. I FOUND A SIGNIFICANT HOLE RUSTED THROUGH THE LEFT FRAME RAIL. I MADE CONTACT WITH GENERAL MOTORS ABOUT THE SEVERITY OF RUST IN AND ON MY FRAME. THEY HAD A LOCAL DEALERSHIP EVALUATE THE FRAME. AFTER SEVERAL PEOPLE AND MANY WEEKS. THE BEST GM IS WILLING TO DO IS OFFER A $100.00 SERVICE VOUCHER. THIS A A TRUCK ,THAT HAULS ,TOWS AND CARRIES LOADS AND FAMILY. I DO NOT BELIEVE IN 6 YEARS AND 100800 MILES THE FRAME SHOULD HAVE TO BE WELDED. GM SAYS THAT MY PERFORATION WARRANTY EXPIRED IN NOVEMBER OR 100400 MILE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFTEY ISSUE. TOYOTA ADDRESSED THERE FRAME ISSUE WHY IS GENERAL MOTORS ANY DIFFERENT? I WOULD APPRECIATE AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS !!@

DASH HAS CRACKED NEAR AIRBAG CREATING A POTENTIAL DEPLOYMENT ISSUE.

STALLS OUT AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. ALSO JERKS FORWARD MULTIPLE TIMES USUALLY AS THE VEHICLE IS STOPPING.

CHECK ENGINE COMES IN RELATED TO LOW OIL PRESSURE SENSOR CAUSES AN EMISSIONS LIGHT TO WHICH WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION. HAVE CHANGED OIL PICK UP TUBE O RING, WHICH WAS NOT DAMAGED, PRESSURE SENSOR AND SCREEN HAVE BEEN CHANGED. NO MECHANICS OR LOCAL DEALERS HAVE ANY IDEA HOW TO FIX THIS ISSUE. WHILE DRIVING THE TRUCK AND STOPPED IN TRAFFIC OR AT A VERY LOW SPEED THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON.

OIL CONSUMPTION DURING NORMAL OPERATIONS IS EXCESSIVE.

ON 3/4/2018 I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR A BROKEN LEAF SPRING. WHEN THE MECHANIC WAS REPLACING THE SPRINGS, HE NOTES HOLES RUSTING IN THE TRUCKS FRAME. I DID BUY THE TRUCK USED FROM A CHEVROLET DEALER ON 3/12 2016 WITH @49,000 MILES ON IT. WITH IN 6-8 MONTHS OF OWNING THE TRUCK, IT STARTED TO RUST ON THE FENDER WELLS, AND HAD SOME RUST ON THE FRAME. WHEN I TALKED TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ME BECAUSE THE 6 YEAR OR 100,000 MILE WARRANTY RAN OUT ON 10/1/2018. I CALLED GMC CUSTOMER CARE ABOUT THIS AND THEY DID OPEN A SERVICE REQUEST [XXX]. ON 4/8/2019 SERVICE MANAGER FOR THE DEALER TOLD ME THE GME WILL DO NOTHING FOR ME BECAUSE IT WILL COST $12,000.00 TO REPLACE FRAME BET MAY OFER ME A CERTIFICATE FOR $1000.00 TOWARDS A NEW TRUCKS. I FELL THIS IS UNEXCEPTIONABLE TO ME BECAUSE THE SAFETY OF ME AND MY FAMILY WHEN WE ARE IN THE TRUCK. WE BROUGHT THE TRUCK BECAUSE IN HAS A GOOD SAFETY RATING BE WITH HOLES RUSTING IN THE FRAME I FELL MY SAFETY IS COMPROMISED EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING OVER MULTIPLE PLACES - INCLUDING THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG - I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS WILL POTENTIALLY CAUSE SPLINTERED PIECES OF PLASTIC TO BE SHOT INTO THE CABIN DURING A CRASH - THE PART OVER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS ALREADY STARTING TO SPLINTER. A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH HAS FOUND MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE - SO IT MUST BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT.

I WENT UNDERNEATH MY SIERRA TODAY AND FOUND THE ENTIRE FRAME IS EXTREMELY RUSTED. UPON CLOSER EXAMINATION I FOUND A 3 INCH BY 3/4 INCH HOLE RUSTED THROUGH. THIS TRUCK JUST TURNED 6 YEARS OLD AND HAS 100000 MILES . THIS IS A SAFTEY ISSUE BECAUSE WITH THE TRUCK BEING ABLE TO TOW HEAVY LOADS.

'TAJARA RECALL' I HAVE A CONSERN ABOUT MY DASH COVER IT'S CRACK FROM WHERE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND THE CENTER OF THE OF THE DASH. WILE GOING IN GOOGLE HOW TO REPLACE THE DASH THERE WHER A NUMERES OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE ON ALL GMC SIERRA AND CHEVY SILVERADO FROM YEARS 2007-2013. I THINK THIS COULD BE A SAFETY CONSERN IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT AND AIR BAGS IGNITE THE DASH COVER COULD BREAK IN PIECES AND AND SOMEONE COULD GET SERIOUSLY INJURED I'M SAYING FOR MY SAFETY AND MY FAMILY SAFETY AS WELL .

MY DASHBOARD IS CRACKING/CRACKED ON MY 2013 GMC SIERRA. GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. I HAVE NOTICED SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE. A LOT OF THEM. LOOKS TO ME LIKE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. THEREFORE, I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED FOR AT LEAST TWO YEARS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO VINCE WEBB CADILLAC OF PENSACOLA (5651 PENSACOLA BLVD, PENSACOLA, FL 32505, (850) 912-9372), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

THE DASHBOARD HAS SEVERE CRACKS IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ALSO AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THESE CRACKS ARE RESULTING FROM A POOR DESIGN AND NOT FROM ANY ACCIDENT OR MISUSE. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS VINTAGE OF TRUCK AND HAS AFFECTED MANY OWNERS. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IN THE EVENT OF A ACCIDENT THAT DEPLOYS THE AIRBAGS, THE MANUFACTURERS DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD WOULD SHATTER AND YIELD PROJECTILES WITHIN THE CABIN AREA. THE DASH REQUIRES FULL REPLACEMENT AND CANNOT BE REPAIRED.

TWO OF THE FOUR WHEELS WERE LOSING AIR AND TESTED LOCALLY. IT WAS DETERMINED AIR WAS LEAKING FROM EACH OF THE TWO RIMS IN A SIMILAR LOCATION. NOTE-AIR WAS NOT LEAKING FROM THE TIRE OR THE SEAL BETWEEN THE TIRE BEAD AND RIM. INSTEAD, THE RIM ITSELF APPEARS TO HAVE A LATENT DEFECT CAUSING A SLOW LEAK. I CONTACTED A LOCAL GMC DEALER TO SEE ABOUT WARRANTY COVERAGE OR MANUFACTURE INTEREST IN ASSISTING WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE. VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND GM WAS WILLING TO PARTICIPATE AT 10% OF NEW REPLACEMENT COST, SEE ATTACHED. TWO OF THE FOUR RIMS WERE TESTED FOR THE DEFECT. BOTH RIMS EXHIBIT THE SAME DEFECT. THAT 1/2 OF THE RIMS ON MY ONE TRUCK ARE LEAKING, IT SUGGESTS A LARGER DEFECT IN THE STANDARD RIMS. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MOTORIST SAFETY RESULTING FROM DEFECTIVE RIMS.

THE DASHBOARD CRACKED ON ITS OWN. RIGHT ACROSS THE CONTROL PANEL AND ON THE OUTER EDGES OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THROUGH AMTRUST (OFFICIAL GM WARRANTY PARTNER) - BUT THEY DECLINED TO COVER THE REPLACEMENT. THESE CRACKS ARE IDENTICAL TO HUNDREDS I SEE POSTED FROM GM TRUCK OWNERS ONLINE.

THE DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED BY THE AIRBAG AND BY THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IN THREE DIFFERENT LOCATIONS!! UGH!! GET A DENALI THEY SAID!! LUXURY THEY SAID!!

I PURCHASED MY 2013 GMC SIERRA 1500 SLE EXT CAB BRAND NEW. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVERS SIDE MASTER WINDOW SWITCH DUE TO FAILURE,REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. I NOW HAVE TO REPLACE THE SWITCH AGAIN AS IT HAS FAILED. I JUST SAW A NHTSA RECALL ID NUMBER :18V295 MANUFACTURER :GENERAL MOTORS LLC SUBJECT :LIQUID MAY LEAK INTO POWER WINDOW SWITCH MAKEMODELMODEL YEARS CHEVROLETEXPRESS2014-2017 GMCSAVANA2014-2017 . I BELIEVE THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THE SWITCHES IN MY MODEL TRUCK AAND IT SHOULD BE CHECKED OUT. I HAVE OWNED MANY VEHICLES AND NEVER HAVE I HAD TO REPLACE A MASTER WINDOW SWITCH 3 TIMES, THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THESE SWITCHES.THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW WORKED INTERMITTENTLY , THEN THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE ALSO WORKED INTERMITENLY, NOW ALL 4 WINDOWS WORK INTERMITTENTLY.

AROUND 50K THE SIDE DETECTION WARNING SYSTEM AND PARK ASSIST QUIT WORKING. UPON TAKING IT IN FOR REPAIRS WE FIND THAT THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM FOR THIS VEHICLE, AND REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE AT A SHORTAGE..DUE TO HIGH VOLUME OF REPAIRS. WE CALLED GM CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY STATE THERE IS NO RECALL AND OUR REPAIR WILL BE OVER $1000 TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. WE FEEL THIS IS UNFAIR PRACTICE SINCE THEY ARE AWARE THEY HAVE THIS PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING INSPECTED AT AN UNKNOWN DEALER IN APPOMATTOX, VA, THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE IDLER ARM, TIE ROD END, AND THE PITMAN ARMS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT LUBRICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL NHTSA. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 127,000.

PAINT IS COMING OFF IN LARGE AREAS AND RUST SPOTS STARTING TO FORM WHERE PAINT HAS COME OFF. PAINT CAME OFF WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE IN RAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS HAD CONDENSATION AND WATER IN THE LENSES. ADDITIONALLY, THE BULBS BLEW OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ED SCHMIDT AUTO GROUP (26875 NORTH DIXIE HIGHWAY, PERRYSBURG, OH 43551) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS IN A CRASH BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 8-3967686775. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL OR WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000. *TT *TR

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED ON PASSENGER SIDE AT LEFT CORNER OF AIRBAG. I HAVE SEEN THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH GM MAKES AND MODELS. EVEN THOUGH THIS TRUCK HAS ONLY 32,000 MILES ON IT PRESENTLY IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AT 32,000 MILES FOR ANY REASON.

CRACKED DASHBOARD NEAR AIR BAG. I HAVE 3 CRACKS ON THE DASHBOARD. THIS IS VERY COMMON IVE BEEN READING. IS THIS A SAFETY ISSUE REGARDING THE AIR BAG?

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016, I INQUIRED AT THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT HAVING THE RECALL DONE. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS DURING MY FIRST INQUIRY. ON MY 2ND INQUIRY, I WAS TOLD THAT GM WAS AWAITING COURT PROCEEDINGS TO BE RESOLVED REGARDING GM'S RESPONSIBILITY AND/OR COST. SINCE THEN TO DATE, MY DASHBOARD AT THE AREA OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG HAS CRACKED AND I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE THE MATTER.

THERES ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS GOING ON, HAVING INTERIOR LIGHTS GO ON AND OFF, DRIVERS DOOR HANDLE BROKE FROM NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR, PASSENGER HEADLIGHT KEEPS GOING OUT AFTER ABOUT 2 WEEKS TOO A MONTH, DRIVERS SIDE CONTROLS DON'T WANT TO WORK ALL THE TIME TO TRY TO ROLL UP AND DOWN THE WINDOWS, MOVE BOTH ELECTRICAL MIRRORS, UNLOCK THE DOORS.

I HAVEN'T HAD THE TRUCK FOR THAT LONG AND I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF IT. SO THE FACT THAT MY DOOR HANDLES AND SIDING ARE FALLING OFF OF THE TRUCK JUST SHOWS THAT YOU USED VERY CHEAP PRODUCTS FOR A NON-CHEAP VEHICLE. GMC SHOULD BE ASHAMED. I'M THINKING ABOUT GOING WITH A FORD. DIDN'T SEE ANY BULLSHIT PROBLEMS LIKE THIS ON THEIR RECALL LIST

TAKATA RECALL..RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON 07/2016/ FROM GMC ABOUT DEFECTIVE AIR BAG. LETTER SAYS "NO NEED TO TAKE ACTION NOW. YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO REMEDY YOUR VEHICLE." I HAVE NEVER BEEN NOTIFIED BY GM..STILL WAITING, I NOW HAVE A COLLEGE STUDENT DRIVING THIS PICKUP AND WOULD LIKE SOME ATTENTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE PUSHING BACK THE DRIVER'S SEAT, THE BACK OF THE SEAT FELL. THE CONTACT LATER NOTICED A SHARP PIECE OF METAL IN THE BACK OF THE SEAT. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT THE LUMBAR SUPPORT IN THE SEAT FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JOHNSON MOTOR COMPANY OF GEORGIA CADILLAC (1122 WALTON WAY, AUGUSTA, GA 30901), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT SPOKE WITH JOHNSON MOTOR COMPANY OF SOUTH CAROLINA (490 JEFFERSON DAVIS HWY, GRANITEVILLE, SC 29829) AND WAS ADVISED TO SPEAK TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT ASSIST SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

MY ROOF HAS DEVELOPED "PEELING PAINT" TO EXPOSE THE PRIMER.

DASH DEVELOPED TERRIBLE CRACKS ! REAR DOOR HANDLE BROKE LOOSE.

I PARKED AT MY PLACE OF WORK, I PUT MY WINDSHIELD SHADE UP AS I DO EVERYDAY, AND WHEN I CAME OUTSIDE TO GO HOME I NOTICED A CRACK ON THE DASH ON THE UPPER LEFT DASH SECTION BY THE AIRBAG, I'M WORRIED IF THE AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY THE DASH COULD SPLINTER SENDING PIECES OF SHARP PLASTIC AT THE PASSENGERS.

THE DASH IS CRACKING SEVERELY, THERE ARE 2 CRITICAL CRACKS 1 AT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND 1 AT THE GAUGE CLUSTER. THE WHOLE DASH VIBRATES AND BOUNCES WHICH IS A SAFETY CONCERNS FOR BOTH DRIVING BECAUSE IT DRAWS ATTENTION WHEN DRIVING AND ALSO THIS IS A STRUCTURE AREA THAT HOSTS THE SPEAKERS, AIRBAG, AND OTHER TRIM. THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED TRIM THIS IS A STRUCTURAL AREA THAT IS NEEDED TO HOLD THE DASH AREA TOGETHER SAFELY.

MY COMPLAINT IS FOR THE CRACKED DASHBOARD JUST ABOVE THE FORWARD LEFT CORNER OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT. THE DASH CRACKED FOR NO APPARENT REASON; THERE IS NO KNOWN CAUSE. MY CONCERN IS BOTH COSMETIC AND SAFETY. NOT ONLY SHOULD A VEHICLE LESS THAN 5YRS OLD NOT HAVE A CRACKED DASHBOARD, BUT SINCE THE DASH IS CRACKED DIRECTLY ADJACENT TO THE AIR BAG COMPARTMENT, AND IS APPARENTLY PRONE TO CRACKING, THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DASH TO SPLINTER AND PROJECT SMALL PIECES OF PLASTIC INTO THE BODY OF PASSENGERS IF THE AIRBAG WERE TO BE DEPLOYED.

I HAVE A 2013 GMC SIERRA DENALI. THE DASHBOARD BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG PLATE BEGAN TO CRACK ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO AND THE CRACK IS GROWING QUICKLY. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF GENERAL MOTORS VEHICLES DOING THIS AND THEY WILL NOT RECALL IT. IT CAN COST AROUND $1,000 TO HAVE IT FIXED. I AM WORRIED THE CRACK WILL CONTINUE TO GROW AND IF THE AIRBAG EVER DEPLOYS THE DASHBOARD WILL BUST INTO MANY PIECES AND CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES. THIS IS SOME BULL CRAP THAT THERE ARE SO MANY VEHICLES FROM 2007-2013 THAT ARE DOING THIS AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE. MAKE THEM FIX THIS.

LARGE CRACKS ARE FORMING ON THE DASHBOARD. ONE CRACK IS LOCATED NEAR THE SPEEDOMODER COLUMN AND THE OTHER DECENDS FROM THE PASSENGER AIRBAG.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKING NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN A SMOOTH INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, HEARD A POP AND NOTICED THE DASH HAD CRACKED AT THE CORNER OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AND STARTED MAKING A NOISE. A FEW DAYS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED, BUT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THE ONE CRACK HAS BECOME A CUT/SCRAPE HAZARD WHILE CLEANING. I ASSUME THAT IT WILL BECOME LARGER. POSSIBLY EXPOSING THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY TO DAMAGING HEAT AND SUN EXPOSURE.

DASHBORD SEPARATING DOWN THE CENTER. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, THE DASHBOARD FLAPS. THIS IS A DEFAULT ISSUE WITH THE COMPANY. ALSO, CRACK ON THE LEFT SIDE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD WITH DISMANTLE CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM.

I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE TO FIND THE HEATER CORE WAS BAD. TO REPLACE, THE DASHBOARD WOULD HAVE TO BE REMOVED. I ALREADY HAD A SMALL CRACK IN THE DASH LOCATED RIGHT ABOVE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. AFTER SERVICE WAS PERFORMED AT THE DEALERSHIP, THE DASHBOARD NOW HAS TWO MORE CRACKS IN IT. THE DEALERSHIP SAID I WILL HAVE TO PAY 40% AND THE CLOCK IN NOW TICKING. THE LONGER I WAIT, THE LESS GMC WILL PAY TO REPLACE. EVEN THOUGH THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THAT GMC IS HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE DASH CRACKING, PEELING, ETC.

A CRACK HAS DEVELOPED ON THE RIGHT CORNER OF PASSENGER SIDE DASH THAT BORDERS THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH AIRBAG. SEVERAL PEOPLE I WORK WITH HAVE DEVELOPED THE SAME PROBLEM IN THEIR GM TRUCKS AS WELL. IF THE BAG DEPLOYS MORE THAN LIKELY THE BAG WILL TEAR DUE TO THE SHARP CRACK EDGES AND BECAUSE OF THE FORCE SHARDS OF PLASTIC DASHBOARD WILL BE FLYING SHRAPNEL INSIDE THE CAB. I REFUSE TO HAVE MY CHILDREN SIT IN THE PASSENGER SIDE LET ALONE AN ADULT. WHEN DO YOU PLAN ON MAKING THIS ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL? WHEN PIECES OF DASHBOARD AND AIRBAG BLINDS SOMEBODY?

CRACK IN DASHBOARD BY PASSENGER AIRBAG...AFRAID IT WILL DEPLOY

HAVE A CRACK IN DASHBOARD BY PASSENGER AIRBAG AND BEHIND CENTER OF GAUGE CLUSTER ON DRIVERS SIDE. PURCHASED VEHICLE USED AND DIDN'T NOTICE CRACKS TILL I HAD DRIVEN CAR HOME.

3 TIMES IN 5 DAYS MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT HAS JUST COLLAPSED BACK WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO CRASH EACH TIME.

CRACKED DASH.

INSTALLING A CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF TRUCK. IF THE AIRBAG WENT OFF IT WOULD INJURE OR KILL THE CHILD. THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED TO HOOK UP A CAR SEAT. THERE IS NO DEVICE TO TURN OFF THE AIRBAG WHEN A CHILD IS IN THEIR SEAT. NOBODY MENTIONED THIS WHEN PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE THAT YOU SHOULD NOT INSTALL A CAR SEAT. WENT TO MICHIGAN STATE POLICE CAR SEAT EXPERT AND THE SARGE TELLS ME SHE HAS TRIED TO GET THEM TO INSTALL A SWITCH. I HAVE THE FEDERAL FORM SAYING I ASSUME ALL LIABILITY . THERE EITHER NEEDS A SWITCH OR SAY YOU SHOULD NOT INSTALL A CAR SEAT. CALLING GM I WAS TOLD TO PUT THE CHILD SEAT IN THE BACK. I HAVE ONLY ONE SEAT NO BACK SEAT. I ASKED IF I SHOULD INSTALL IT IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK. THERE RESPONSE WAS PUT CAR SEAT IN THE BACK SEAT. I WOULD IF I HAD ONE!. I AM AFRAID TO CARRY MY GRANDDAUGHTER IN MY VEHICLE. THE SARGENT CONFIRMED NOT TO PLACE CAR SEAT IN THE MIDDLE BECAUSE IF THE DRIVERS AIRBAG WENT OFF IT WOULD KILL HER. THE MANUAL SAY DON'T PUT THE CAR SEAT IN THE MIDDLE. IF PLACED ON THE PASSENGER SEAT IT WOULD HURT HER AND POSSIBLY BREAK BOTH LEGS. GM REFUSES TO INSTALL A SWITCH EVEN AT MY EXPENSE. THEY SAY IT IS A LIABILITY. IT SEEMS TO ME THEY ARE LIABLE IF THEY DON'T. NEED SOME HELP SO MORE KIDS DON'T GET HURT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WATER BECAME TRAPPED IN THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AND IMPACTED VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,300. UPDATED 01/05/2017*CT

MY DASHBOARD HAS A CRACK THAT APPEARED TODAY THAT'S LOCATED ON THE TOP LEFT CORNER OF MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. I CALLED GM TODAY AND TOLD THEM OF THE SITUATION AND THEY STATED THAT THEY'RE AWARE OF THESE CRACKS HOWEVER THERE ISN'T A RECALL DUE TO IT NOT BEING A SAFETY ISSUE WHILE DRIVING. THE GM LADY ASKED ME HOW MANY MILES ARE ON MY TRUCK SO I TOLD HER IT ONLY HAS 29,204 MILES AND I'M THE ORIGINAL FIRST OWNER AND BOUGHT MY TRUCK BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALER. SHE THEN STATED THAT THE TRUCK IS ALREADY OVER THE 36 MONTH / 36,000 MILE WARRANTY THEREFORE IT'S NOT COVERED FOR A FREE DASHBOARD REPLACEMENT. CAN SOMEONE AT THE NHTSA PLEASE HELP ME OUT OR POINT ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION SO I CAN GET THIS PROBLEM RESOLVED. THANKS IN ADVANCE. *TR

SALT LAKE VALLEY GMC HAS BEEN AWARE OF THE ISSUE SINCE DAY ONE. THIS HAS BECOME A SAFTEY ISSUE, THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AT THIS TIME AND I AM LEFT HOLDING THE BAG FOR A MYSTERY THEY CANNOT SOLVE (OR GM IS COVERING UP YET ANOTHER PROBLEM) NOTE THIS TRUCK IS THE DURAMAX 2500.

I OWN A 2013 GMC SIERRA 4WD CREW CAB THAT IS HAVING BRAKING PROBLEMS. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ON 05/29/2013 NEW FROM BILL SMITH BUICK-GMC INC. LOCATED IN CULLMAN, AL AS A NEW VEHICLE AND AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE IT HAD 7173 MILES ON IT AS STATED ON THE ODOMETER DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 41585 MILES ON IT THAT INDICATED I HAVE DRIVEN THE VEHICLE 36412 MILES. I HAVE HAD TWO INCIDENTS WITH THE BRAKES WHERE THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP WITH THE BRAKES FULLY APPLIED. THE FIRST TIME WAS WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD APPROXIMATELY 15000 MILES ON IT. THE SECOND TIME OCCURRED THIS PAST THURSDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2014 WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES AT 25 MPH AND THE CAR JUST CONTINUED TO ROLL UP HILL UNTIL I HIT A CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE OLDER BUICK LASABER REAR END OR BUMPER BUT MY FRONT BUMPER WAS PUSHED IN ABOUT 2 INCHES. IF I HAD BEEN ON THE LEVEL OR WAS GOING ABOVE 25 MPH I SUSPECT THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES. WHAT?S HAPPENING IS WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED THE CAR STARTS TO SHUDDER AND SOUNDS LIKE YOUR BANGING ON A TIN CAN. WHEN THAT HAPPENS THE TRUCK IS NOT STOPPING OR SLOWING AT ALL AND THE BRAKE PEDAL IS AS FAR DOWN AS IT CAN GO. PUMPING THE BRAKE WILL CAUSE THE BRAKES TO RECOVER AND THE VEHICLE WILL STOP. THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN A CONSISTENT ISSUE. THIS LAST THURSDAY IS THE FIRST TIME I COULDN?T STOP IN 26000 MILES. BACK WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD 15000 MILES ON IT THE SAME THING OCCURRED. WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO WORK THIS MORNING AFTER PICKING IT UP FROM THE GMC DEALERSHIP THAT SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS WAS AFTER MAKING SEVERAL STOPS ON HWY 280 IN BIRMINGHAM, AL. THIS TIME I RAN THE RED LIGHT WITH NO CONSEQUENCES BUT MY LUCK WILL NOT CONTINUE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH, AN ABNORMAL NOISE OF SIMULATING AIR ENTERED THE VEHICLE FROM THE DRIVER SIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THREE DIFFERENT DEALERS WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR AND FRONT DRIVER SIDE FOAM SEALS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

I OWN A 2013 GMC SIERRAHD 2500 AND I AM EXPERIENCING POWER STEERING FAILURES. GMC IS REFUSING TO FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY CANT FIND IT. GMC ALSO HAS NO PROBLEM PUTTING ME BACK ON THE ROAD IN A DANGEROUS UNSAFE VEHICLE THAT IS STILL UNDER BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. . THE FIRST EXPERIENCE WAS JUST PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT. AS I WAS TURNING, ALWAYS TO THE LEFT, INTO THE SPOT THE POWER STEERING FAILED. ALWAYS AFTER A LONG DRIVE THIS OCCURS, TO THE TUNE OF 5 PLUS HOURS. THE POWER LOSS REPEATED ITSELF TWO MORE TIMES THAT FIRST DAY. OCCURRING WHEN I WAS COMING TO A SLOW LEFT TURN UNDER 10 MPH. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER A COUPLE DAYS LATER AND THEY COULDN'T REPEAT THE PROBLEM SO THEY REFUSED REPAIRS. THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENED WAS A COUPLE DAYS AGO. THIS TIME IT BEGAN WITH SLOW LEFT TURNS IN A PARKING LOT OR ON DOWNRAMPS FROM HIGHWAYS. HOWEVER THE PROBLEM GAINED INTENSITY AS I THOUGHT I COULD FEEL IT WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS, ALTHOUGH I DIREGUARDED THAT SINCE IT IS HARD TO TELL WHILE DRIVING 65 ON THE HIGHWAY. ONCE I REACHED MY LOCAL BACK, CURVY, MOUNTAIN ROADS, IT FAILED REPEATEDLY. ONE INSTANCE CAUSING ME TO VEER TO THE EDGE OF A SEVERE DROP OFF AND MY TIRES RUNNING OFF THE ROAD. THIS EASILY COULD HAVE BEEN A FATAL MOMENT. AGAIN AFTER A LONG DRIVE, THEY WERE UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM. THEY INSPECTED EVERYTHING AND RESEARCHED THE ISSUE. GMC SAID THAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN HITTING THE BRAKES AT A SLOW SPEED. HOWEVER, THE FAILURE HAS NOW OCCURRED WITHOUT BRAKING AND AT A NORMAL SPEED OF ABOUT 30 MPH. GMC REFUSED TO REPLACE ANYTHING AND WOULD NOT COMPENSATE THE DEALER IF THEY DID. THUS GMC PUT ME BACK ON THE ROAD IN A DANGEROUS VEHICLE. THEY SAID THIS WAS NORMAL AND WOULD HAPPEN FROM TIME TO TIME. DESPITE ALL THEIR EXCUSES, I HAD A CONTRADICTION FOR.I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT DIDN'T START TILL NOW AND WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE HAVING THE PROBLEM. *TR

INITIALLY I FELT THE PROBLEM AS A SLIGHT "MISSING" IN THE ENGINE UNDER VERY LIGHT ACCELERATION BETWEEN 40 MPH AND 55MPH AND MORE PRONOUNCED UNDER CONSTANT THROTTLE GOING UP GRADES ON THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF ~55 MPH (1400-1500 RPM). THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO BE "LUGGING", AND THEN THE RPM WOULD INCREASE BY ~20% IMMEDIATELY FOR A SHORT DISTANCE AND THEN DROP BACK (ALL AT CONSTANT THROTTLE) TO 1400-1500 RPM. WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN CRUISE CONTROL AT 60 MPH AND GOING UP A GRADE, THE VEHICLE WOULD SHOW SIGNS OF "STRAINING" AND IMMEDIATELY INCREASE IN THE RPM BY ABOUT 20% WITH AN ATTENDANT ACCELERATION. THEN THE RPM WOULD INCREASE INSTANTLY BY ABOUT 1000 RPM AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES RAPIDLY UNTIL I ENGAGE THE BRAKES. MY DEALER OBSERVED THE SAME CHARACTERISTICS AND DETERMINED THAT IT WAS A TORQUE CONVERTER PROBLEM AND ON 07/25/2014 THEY INSTALLED A NEW TORQUE CONVERTER, WHICH PROVED TO HAVE NO EFFECT ON THE PROBLEM. I WAS INFORMED BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT GMC TECHNICAL SERVICES INFORMED HIM OF A SERVICE BULLETIN (#PIP4681D: RANDOM BUMP CHUGGLE OR FISHBITE SENSATION WHILE CRUISING AT APPROXIMATELY 1,300 RPM- OCTOBER 31, 2013) THAT ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM, AND FURTHERMORE NO FURTHER CORRECTIVE ACTION COULD BE TAKEN. ON AUGUST 6,,2014 I WAS DRIVING AT CONSTANT SPEED OF 60 MPH ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN "CRUISE CONTROL" AND MODERATE TRAFFIC. WHILE GOING UP A LONG GRADE FOLLOWING ANOTHER VEHICLE AT A SAFE SPEED, MY VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY JUMPED ~400 RPM AND THEN ABRUPTLY CHANGED TO A LOWER GEAR AND ACCELERATED SUDDENLY PUTTING ME AT RISK OF COLLIDING WITH THE VEHICLE AHEAD OF ME. I QUICKLY APPLIED BRAKES AND WAS ABLE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED GMC CUSTOMER SERVICES WHO OPENED A CASE NUMBER ([XXX]) AND ASSIGNED A REP. TO MY CASE. I HAVE SUBSEQUENTLY BEEN INFORMED OF THE GMC COMPANY LINE--"THE VEHICLE IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED", "LIVE WITH IT"!!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

NOTICED BACK DOOR OPEN INDICATED ON PANEL, STEPPED OUT WITH VEHICLE IN DRIVE AT A STOP, THEN ONCE OUTSIDE SLIPPED AND VEHICLE KEPT MOVING, HAD TO JUMP BACK INTO VEHICLE AND APPLY BRAKE TO PUT IT INTO PARK, WHY DOESN'T VEHICLE SHUT DOWN ONCE OFF THE SEAT? RIDING LAWN MOWERS DO! *JS

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING HOME IN TRAFFIC WHEN A WOMAN DRIVING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION DECIDED TO PASS A VEHICLE. HE SWERVED TO AVOID A HEAD ON COLLISION WHICH MEANT HE HAD TO GO OFF OF THE ROAD. WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD THE TRUCK SHOT ACROSS TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE DPS OFFICER TOLD MY HUSBAND HE HIT A CULVERT AND FLIPPED 5- 6 TIMES. WITNESSES HAD TO PULL HIM OUT OF THE TRUCK AND HAD MENTIONED THERE WAS A SLIGHT FIRE THAT THEY PUT OUT. DURING ALL OF THIS NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. HE WENT TO THE DOCTOR THE FOLLOWING DAY TO GET CHECKED OUT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 58 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAITED FIVE MINUTES BEFORE RESTARTING THE VEHICLE AND RESUMED NORMALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED FOUR TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE A DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WAS PERFORMED. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A PROBLEM. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

POWER STEERING GEAR BOX LEAKS OIL OUT OF FRONT ADJUSTMENT NUT SEAL. AFTER THREE REPLACEMENT GEAR BOXES IT STILL CONTINUALLY LEAKS. THE LAST ATTEMPTED FIX BY A GMC DEALER ENDED WITH POWER STEERING SPRAYING ALL OVER EVERYTHING UNDER HOOD INCLUDING EXHAUST WHICH IS A SIGNIFICANT FIRE HAZARD. ALSO, WHEN FLUID LEVEL GETS LOW STEERING IS SIGNIFICANTLY HINDERED. *TR

ON APRIL 7, 2014, I WAS INVOLVED IN CAR ACCIDENT. MY VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY THROUGH A SOLID GREEN LIGHT WHEN THE OTHER THE VEHICLE MAKING A LEFT TURN TRIED TO SPEED UP TO GET PASS. I SAW THE OTHER THE VEHICLE AND PRESS THE BRAKES HARD BUT THE TRUCK SLID AND HIT THE OTHER VEHICLE. I WAS GREAT IMPACT AND I WAS SHOCKED THAT OUR AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. I'M VERY CONCERN THAT MY EQUIPMENT ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY....PLEASE ASSIST ME IN MATTER. *TR

I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR A GRINDING NOISE THE STEERING RACK WAS MAKING WHEN TURNING AT LOW SPEEDS, THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS A POWER STEERING GEAR, COMMON PROBLEM AND THEY WOULD FIX IT BECAUSE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY, THEY SOLVED THE PROBLEM. THE ISSUE IS THAT THE RE-MANUFACTURED PART THEY USED LEAKS, TOOK IT BACK A SECOND TIME, THEY SAID IT WAS A BAD SEAL AND THEY WOULD REPLACE THE SEAL. HAD TO TAKE IT IN A THIRD TIME BECAUSE IT LEAKED AGAIN, SO THEY SAID THEY WOULD REPLACE THE RACK AGAIN, COME TO FIND OUT, THE LAST TIME THEY HAD IT THEY REPLACED THE STEERING RACK AGAIN, SO THIS IS THE THIRD STEERING RACK THEY HAVE PUT ON A 2013 TRUCK, AND IT STILL LEAKS, THEY GAME ME A SERVICE BULLETIN THAT SAYS IT IS NORMAL FOR IT TO LEAK FROM THAT AREA AND IT GOES AWAY IN A FEW MONTHS, ALSO THE SERVICE BULLETIN SAYS A DRIP FROM THERE DOES NOT WARRANT A ACTIVE LEAK, I SAY A DRIP ON THE GROUND IS A ACTIVE LEAK. I LIVE IN TEXAS AND BY STATE LAW A VEHICLE CANNOT PASS STATE SAFETY INSPECTION WITH ANY LEAKS ON THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM. HOW DO I KNOW THAT THIS LEAK WILL EVEN GO AWAY? MY TRUCK WON'T EVEN PASS INSPECTION LATER THIS YEAR WHEN I HAVE TO GO BECAUSE OF THIS LEAK. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, THEY SHOULD NOT BE RE ISSUING SUCH A IMPORTANT PART TO THE STEERING SYSTEM AND IT LEAK, I HAVE FOLLOWED UP WITH GM AND SAID I WANT A BRAND NEW ON PUT ON AND NO LEAKS, IT DIDN'T LEAK WHEN I BOUGHT IT, IT SHOULDN'T LEAK NOW. I HAVE LOST FAITH IN THE RELIABILITY OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY HAVE REPLACE THE SAME PART THREE TIMES( A KEY PART TO THE STEERING SYSTEM), IT LEAKS, AND ALL THREE TIMES THE PART WAS RE-MANUFACTURED( USED), I HAVE NO IDEA HOW MANY MILES ARE ON THAT PART, THEY SHOULD BE USING BRAND NEW ONES AND NO LEAKS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS, I SWERVED TO MISS AN ANIMAL, TOOK THE DITCH, HIT TWO TREES, SOME BOULDERS AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 47 MPH. THE ACCIDENT REPORT SHOWED DAMAGES TO EVERY PART OF THE TRUCK EXCEPT THE ROOF AND TAILGATE. WE HAD A GRILL GUARD INSTALLED AT A GMC DEALERSHIP UPON PURCHASE, AND HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THAT GUARD, THE ENGINE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN OUR LAPS. THE TRUCK SUSTAINED 20,000 DOLLARS IN DAMAGES, YET ALL GM HAD TO SAY WAS THAT THE AIRBAGS OPERATED AS DESIGNED. I SAY THAT THE DESIGN IS FATALLY FLAWED IF A CRASH OF THIS MAGNITUDE DOES NOT CAUSE THIS VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE TO OPERATE. THE FOLKS WHO TOWED THE VEHICLE HAD SOME VERY STRONG OPINIONS ABOUT THIS FAILURE, AND SAID THAT THE GRILL GUARD WAS THE ONLY THING WHICH SAVED US, AND THAT HAVING IT INSTALLED SHOULD NOT HAVE HAD ANY EFFECT ON THE FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAGS. *TR

HELLO, THE DATE AND MILEAGE ABOVE IS NOT ACTUAL DATE OF FIRST INCIDENT, BUT IS THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT IN FOR THE FIRST OIL CHANGE AND VEHICLE INSPECTION WHICH ALSO WAS THE FIRST TIME I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THE ISSUE. MY TRANSMISSION SLIPS BETWEEN 2ND AND 3RD GEAR AT LEAST 4 TIMES A MONTH. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT IF I CANT PROVE IT OR IF IT DOESN'T DO IT WHEN THEY DRIVE IT THEN THEY CANT PERFORM A DIAGNOSTIC TEST TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE SELLER WHO SOLD ME THE VEHICLE CALLED ME TWICE TO SEE HOW IM ENJOYING MY TRUCK AND I COMPLAINED TO HIM BOTH TIMES ABOUT THE ISSUE AND HE TOLD ME THE SAME THING ABOUT MY ISSUE. I EVEN LEFT VOICEMAILS TO HIM ABOUT IT AND HE NEVER RETURNED MY CALLS UNTIL I MADE A YEAR (3/16/14) OWNING MY TRUCK AND CLAIMS HE DON'T REMEMBER ME TELLING HIM THIS THE FIRST TIME. IM A STRONG GM FAN BUT I FEEL IM NOT BEING HELPED WITH MY ISSUE AND ITS ANNOYING THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE MY TRUCK CAUTIOUS GUESSING WILL IT SLIP THIS TIME OR WILL IT SLIP NEXT TIME? IF ITS PROFESSIONAL GRADE THEN WHY AM I HAVING THIS PROBLEM? I USE MY TRUCK FOR FAMILY VACATIONS AND I KNOW ANYONE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WOULD NOT DRIVE THIS TRUCK FAR AWAY FROM HOME WITH THIS ISSUE. IT DOES IT WHEN IT WANTS TO BUT ITS JUST FUNNY HOW IM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHEN IT WILL DO IT AGAIN. I GET ALL THESE EMAILS ASKING ME TO RATE THE DEALERSHIP 5 STARS AND TO RATE THE TRUCK BUT I CANT EVEN GET MY TRUCK CHECKED OUT. THEN THEY TELL ME THEY WONT GIVE ME A RENTAL WHICH I WOULD NEED ANOTHER TRUCK AS A RENTAL. THIS IS SAD I SPEND 30 GRAND ON A TRUCK I CANT GET WORKED ON UNLESS I HAVE PROOF. *TR

SEVERE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATION WHEN BRAKING AT 40 PLUS MPH. *TR

MICE, RABBITS ETC. CHEWED THROUGH WIRES BECAUSE GMC PUTS PEANUT OIL ON THEIR WIRES. GMC DEALER SAID THEY WOULD FIX WIRES BUT THE PROBLEM WILL PERSIST BECAUSE PEANUT OIL IS BAIT FOR THESE ANIMALS. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT WAS REPORTED ON A 2012 VEHICLE. THIS COULD CAUSE FIRES ETC AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. THE VEHICLE WASN'T RUNNING RIGHT, ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND CHEWED WIRES WERE DISCOVERED. WERE TOLD BY GMC DEALER THERE IS NO PERMANENT FIX BECAUSE THEY USE PEANUT OIL BECAUSE ITS CHEAP! WE'VE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE SINCE SEPTEMBER 2013. GMC WILL PUT THE WIRES TOGETHER AGAIN BUT NOT FIX THE MAIN PROBLEM OF THE PEANUT OIL. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS COMPLETELY AVOIDABLE, YET A PROBLEM THAT IS BUILT INTO THE VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH AND BECAME INVOLVED IN A SIX VEHICLE CRASH. THE CONTACT'S AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY ON IMPACT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT END, RIGHT QUARTER PANEL AND THE REAR BUMPER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,010.

TRUCK IS LEAKING OIL, AND I HAVE A SMALL PUDDLE OH GARAGE FLOOR. BROUGHT TO ORIGINAL SELLING DEALER TO BE CHECKED. THEY CLAIMED THERE WAS A PLUG ON BACK OF ENGINE THAT WAS LEAKING. THEY HAD VEHICLE FOR 3 1/2 DAYS, AND CLAIMED IT WAS FIXED. THEY HAD OVER 1 PAGE OF SEALS, GASKETS, PLUG WERE REPLACED. DROVE APPROXIMATELY 50 MILES, AND IT STARTED LEAKING EXACTLY THE SAME AS BEFORE. RETURNED TO DEALER AGAIN, AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN THAT IT WAS NORMAL TO SEE IT HAVING A LEAK DUE TO THE SILICONE THAT WAS USED ON ENGINE PARTS WHEN IT WAS BUILT !!! I WAS ADVISED TO DRIVE IT FOR 1 WEEK AND BRING IT BACK AGAIN. AT THAT POINT IN TIME, I CONTACTED GM AND WAS TOLD TO GET A SECOND OPINION AT ANOTHER DEALERSHIP. I BROUGHT IT TO THEM ON 11/15/13. IT HAS BEEN THERE NOW FOR 6 DAYS. I WAS JUST TOLD THAT THEY HAVE 4 PAGES OF NEW PARTS THAT HAVE TO BE ORDERED TO REPAIR IT. THEY (DEALERSHIP) REQUESTED THAT GM REPLACE THE ENGINE AND WAS DENIED. CONSIDERING THIS IS THE 3RD TIME TRYING TO REPAIR THE SAME PROBLEM, THEY SHOULD EITHER RE-PURCHASE OR LEMON LAW THIS. *TR

AT THIS OCCURRENCE THE HOOD LATCH DOES NOT KEEP THE HOOD TIGHT WHEN CLOSED. THE HOOD RATTLES AT SPEEDS OVER 35MPH AND APPEARS AS THOUGH IT IS GOING TO OPEN. AS A RESULT OF ATTEMPTING TO SUFFICIENTLY SECURING THE HOOD, I SUBSEQUENTLY DENTED THE HOOD. I HAVE HAD THE BODY DEPARTMENT AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP LOOK AT IT AND THEY FOUND THAT THE HOOD LATCH NEEDED TO BE ADJUSTED. AFTER ANOTHER 2500 MILES, THIS RATTLE HAS RETURNED. THE COMPLAINT IS THAT THIS IS THE SECOND 2013 SIERRA DENALI THAT I HAVE OWNED SINCE OCTOBER 2012, SINCE THE DEALERSHIP BOUGHT BACK THE FIRST ONE AFTER NUMEROUS PROBLEMS INCLUDING THE TRANSMISSION BEING REPLACED AT 6250 MILES AND NUMEROUS EFFORTS TO FIX THE HOOD. SAME PROBLEM TWO TRUCKS IS A CAUSE FOR CONCERN! *TR

VIBRATION IN FRONT BRAKES, WHEN BRAKING AROUND 55 - 60 MPH. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD JERK AND SHIFT IN BETWEEN GEARS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED NOR WAS THE FAILURE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200.

THE HEAD RESTS OF OUR NEW TRUCK (PURCHASED DEC 2012) PROJECT SO FAR FORWARD THAT IT FORCES MY HEAD TO TILT DOWNWARD. THERE IS NO FORWARD/BACK ADJUSTMENT TO THE HEAD REST, AND TURNING THE HEAD REST BACKWARDS TO MAKE IT BEARABLE MEANS IT NO LONGER WILL SERVE WELL TO PREVENT NECK INJURIES IN A CRASH. FOR SHORTER DRIVES, THE FORCED HEAD TILT IS UNCOMFORTABLE, BUT FOR LONGER DRIVES IT CAUSES ENOUGH PAIN THAT I HAD TO SEE A CHIROPRACTOR (AND I'M AN ATHLETIC, HEALTHY PERSON!). THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER CONTEND IT WORKS AS DESIGNED FOR SAFETY IN A CRASH. BUT IF I CAN'T SIT IN IT FOR NORMAL DRIVING WITHOUT EXPERIENCING NECK/BACK PAIN, HOW "SAFE" IS THAT? I NOTICED THE NEW 2014 GMC 1/2-TON PICKUPS HAVE A HEAD REST WITH A NOTICEABLY LESS ANGULAR DESIGN, INDICATING GMC RECOGNIZED THE HEAD REST DESIGN IN MY 2013 3/4-TON TRUCK IS, AT BEST, A POOR ONE AND, AT WORST, A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS ONE. IS THERE ANY RECOURSE TO GETTING GMC TO REPLACE MY HEAD RESTS WITH THE NEW DESIGN (OR EVEN AN OLDER ONE, LIKE THE STRAIGHT-UP-AND-DOWN ONES I HAVE IN MY 2003 CHEVY TAHOE)? *TR

THE TRANSMISSION ON THIS VEHICLE SLIPS SOMETIMES BETWEEN 2ND AND 3RD GEAR AND ALSO WHEN PARKED ON A HILL AND PUT INTO DRIVE THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS LATE INTO 1ST GEAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND NOTICED A WIND NOISE COMING FROM THE WINDOW. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, STATING THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 300.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED TO 70 MPH. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE BY APPLYING THE BRAKES. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER DID NOT PERFORM A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE DEALER STATED THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS UNNECESSARY. THERE WERE NO REPAIRS MADE TO THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000. ...UPDATED 08/22/13 *BF THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO FIND A PROBLEM. UPDATED 08/22/13

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REVERSING, THE PARK ASSIST LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000. UPDATED 9/17/13*CN

*ISSUE IS WARNING LIGHT AND TONE THAT THE STABILITRAK SYSTEM REQUIRES SERVICING - THIS IS NOT THE STANDARD WARNING LIGHT THAT THE WHEEL TRACTION VARIES* I HAD A 2011 GMC SIERRA WHICH I BROUGHT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND CALLED GMC ABOUT FOR 6 ISSUES WITH THE STABILITRAK WARNING LIGHT. EVEN WITH GMC CORPORATE INVOLVEMENT, ISSUE WAS NOT CORRECTED DESPITE REPLACEMENT OF NUMEROUS SENSORS, ETC. IN ORDER TO AFFORD TO BUY A NEW 2013 VEHICLE, I TRADED THAT TRUCK AND ANOTHER FOR THE ABOVE-NOTED GMC TRUCK AND 2-DAYS AFTER THE PURCHASE THE SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED AT THE VERY SAME SPOT ON MY DRIVE HOME FROM WORK. I CALLED GMC AND NOTIFIED THE DEALERSHIP. THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM SO I WILL WAIT FOR THREE MORE INSTANCES AND WITH DRIVING A LOANER CAR FOR UP TO 3-WEEKS AT A TIME AND WILL INVOLVE THE LEMON LAW FOR DEFECTS WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR OF OWNERSHIP. OF COURSE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL DO NOTHING EXCEPT PROVIDE GMC WITH MORE TAXPAYER-FUNDED BAILOUT MONEY! THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT DEFECTS WITH THIS COMPLICATED SYSTEM THAT IS SO DEEPLY EMBEDDED IN THE CARS' RUNNING THAT IT CANNOT BE REPAIRED. WHAT DOES IT TAKE FOR YOU TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS CONSUMER RIPOFF???? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 GMC SIERRA 3500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD SLOSHING NOISE OF FUEL COMING FROM THE FUEL TANK. IMMEDIATELY WHEN THE SOUND EMITTED A VIOLENT AND FORCEFUL MOVEMENT FROM THE EXTERIOR REAR OF THE VEHICLE OCCURRED. THE CONTACT CONTINUED TO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHICH INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. IN ADDITION, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND RADIO WOULD NOT DIM IN THE NIGHT MODE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150. UPDATED 01/22/13*LJ THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED GM HAS A SERVICE BULLETIN OUT ON THE CONDITION THAT HAS EXISTED SINCE THE 2007 MODEL YEAR. THERE IS ALSO A NIGHT TIME LIGHTING ISSUE WITH THE INABILITY TO DIM FURTHER, THE DASH LIGHTS OR TO TURN THEM OFF COMPLETELY. UPDATED 01/24/13

UPON LOW SPEED PANIC STOPPING WITH THE FUEL GAUGE READING 3/4 OF A TANK AND BELOW, THERE IS A VIOLENT/NOTICEABLE BUMP. LIKE BEING REARENDED AT LOW SPEED. IT IS A SITUATION THAT GM HAS A BULLETIN OUT ON #PIT5161 OR DOC ID:2851139 FOR THE 2007-2012 CHEV. SILVERADO AND GMC SIERRA P/U WITH THE 34 OR 36 GALLON TANKS. I FEEL THE BRAKES ARE CHALLENGED BY THIS CONDITION, AND EVEN MORE SO ON SLIPPERY, STEEP TERRAIN. *TR
