Seat belts, frontApr 8, 2021
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2014-2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2015-2016 Chevrolet Tahoe, and 2014-2015 GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles that may have received an incorrect replacement tensioner cable assembly as part of a previous recall remedy or a subsequent repair. The flexible steel cable connecting the driver's seat belt to the outboard side of the seat may be repeatedly bent over the seat side shield as the driver enters and exits the vehicle causing the cable to fatigue and separate.
A broken pretensioner cable reduces the effectiveness of the driver's seat belt, increasing the risk of injury.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver seat belt lap pretensioner, free of charge. The recall began on May 5, 2021. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, and GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is N212330040.

Service brakes, hydraulic, antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip, wheel speed sensor/tone ringOct 24, 2019
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2015-2020 Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Yukon, and 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles equipped with a 5.3-liter engine, a 3.08-ratio rear axle and four-wheel drive. If a wheel-speed sensor fails, while the vehicle is traveling between 41 and 60 mph in four-wheel or automatic mode, the Electronic-Brake Control Module (EBCM) software may activate the driveline-protection system.
Unintended activation of the driveline-protection system will cause unintended braking on the wheel on the opposite side of the failed sensor, causing the vehicle to pull to one side unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the EBCM, free of charge. The recall began December 11, 2019. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-630-2438 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is N192261050.

Service brakes, hydraulic, power assist, vacuumSep 6, 2019
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Cadillac Escalade, 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra, 2015-2018 Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Yukon vehicles. The amount of vacuum created by the vacuum pump may decrease over time.
As the vacuum level drops, the brake assist decreases, increasing braking effort, extending the distance required to stop the vehicle, thereby increasing the risk of a crash.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the Electronic Brake Control Module, free of charge. The recall began October 8, 2019. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-630-2438, Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is N192268490.

Air bags, frontalJul 10, 2017
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Buick Lacrosse and Chevrolet Spark EV, Caprice PPV and SS vehicles, 2014-2017 Buick Encore and Chevrolet Corvette, Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles, 2015-2016 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, Chevrolet Tahoe, Trax, Suburban and Silverado 2500 and 3500 and GMC Yukon and Yukon XL vehicles, and 2015-2017 GMC Sierra HD 2500 and 3500 vehicles. While being previously remedied for recall 16V-651, the affected vehicles may not have received the complete software update necessary to remedy the recall condition. Without the update, certain driving conditions may cause the air bag sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) software to activate a diagnostic test. During this test, deployment of the frontal air bags and the seat belt pretensioners would not occur in the event of a crash.
A failure of the front air bags or seat belt pretensioners to deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver and front passenger.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the SDM software. Vehicles that have had a previous air bag deployment will have the SDM replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2017. Owners may contact Buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300, Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006, Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782.

Steering, electric power assist systemJun 29, 2017
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles. The vehicles may have a temporary loss of electric power steering (EPS) assist, especially during low-speed turning maneuvers.
If EPS assist is lost and then returns, the driver might lose temporary control of the steering wheel, increasing the risk of a crash.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the EPS module software, free of charge. The recall began on August 10, 2017. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or GMC customer service at 1-800-432-8782. GM's number for this recall is 17276.

WHILE ENGAGING SLOW IDLE SPEED TURNS, MY 2014 SILVERADO WILL OCCASIONALLY COMPLETELY LOSE ALL POWER STEERING AND THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE SAME ISSUE OCCUR WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AND APPLYING THE BRAKE OR ROLLING UP WINDOWS. DURING THESE TERRIFYING SITUATIONS, A MESSAGE COMES ACROSS THE DASH SAYING ONE OR ALL OF THE FOLLOWING "ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING REDUCED. DRIVE WITH CAUTION" "STABILITRACK" "TRAILER BRAKES". THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO BE VERY SPORADIC AND UNPREDICTABLE. I LOOKED UP POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS AND HAD A MECHANIC FIX A POOR GROUNDING CONNECTION UNDER THE DASH WHICH THEY THOUGHT COULD BE THE CAUSE BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP!

WHILE PARKED IN A PARKING LOT, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. THE TRUCK MAD A CLICKING SOUND AND ALL LIGHTS LIT UP ON DASHBOARD, BUT NO CONCISE ERROR MESSAGE. TRUCK THEN STARTED, BUT LOST POWER WHEN I PUT IT INTO REVERSE WITH ALL LIGHTS COMING ON AGAIN. TURNED OFF IGNITION AND THEN THE TRUCK STARTED. DROVE THE TRUCK 2 MILES TO MY HOME AND WHEN PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY, THE TRUCK LOST TOTAL POWER AND NEARLY CAUSED ME TO CRASH IN TO A PARKED VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO AVOID THE COLLISION AND I TURNED THE KEY OFF IN THE IGNITION. I WAITED A MINUTE AND THE TRUCK STARTED WITHOUT ISSUE. THE NEXT MORNING, THE TRUCK HAD THE SAME ISSUE STARTING - CLICKING SOUND BUT WOULD NOT START. IT FINALLY STARTED AND I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL SHOP TO GET A DIAGNOSIS. THEY COULD NOT FIND THE ISSUE. THE NEXT DAY, THE SAME CLICKING NOISE OCCURRED AND IT WOULDN'T START AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS. I CALLED AAA TO HAVE MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THE SHOP. WHEN AAA CAME, THE MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE. I THEN DROVE IT TO THE REPAIR SHOP FOR ANOTHER DIAGNOSIS. THEY COULD NOT PINPOINT THE ISSUE AND RECOMMENDED THAT I TAKE THE TRUCK TO THE NEARBY CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP, WHICH I DID. THEY HAD IT FOR 2 DAYS AND COULD NOT FIND AN ISSUE - DROVE, TESTED, DIAGNOSED MULTIPLE TIMES TO NO AVAIL. TRUCK ALSO DID NOT SHOW ANY SIGNS OF POWER LOSS, ETC. TODAY, FOR THE FIFTH TIME IN THE LAST 8 DAYS, THERE WAS AN ISSUE. TRUCK STARTED NORMALLY, DROVE APPROX. 2 MILES AND PARKED. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START, THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED - CLICKING SOUND, LIGHTS LIGHTING UP ON THE DASH BOARD AND THIS TIME, A STABILTRAK ERROR CAME ON AND OFF. TRUCK THEN STARTED AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS SO I DROVE IT HOME. WENT TO RESTART AND THE CLICKING SOUND WITH LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIT UP AGAIN. THE POWER LOSS WHILE DRIVING HAS OCCURRED 3 TIMES IN THE PAST, BUT THE VEHICLE STARTED UP WITH NO OTHER ISSUES. HAD THIS TRUCK FOR 4 YEARS WITH NO ISSUES UNTIL NOW.

VEHICLE'S ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS MALFUNCTION AND SEEM TO SHORT OUT THEN THE ENTIRE VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN. THIS IS PRIMARILY WHEN MOVING AT SLOWER SPEEDS AND MAKING TURNS IN EITHER DIRECTION. THE STABILITRAK, PARK ASSISTS, TURN INDICATORS ALL SHUT OFF AND WARNINGS POP UP ON THE DASH. SHORTLY AFTER THAT THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHUTS DOWN ENTIRELY. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ ONLINE THIS IS DUE TO AN MALFUNCTIONING GROUND WIRE THAT THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT INSTALL PROPERLY. THE ERROR IS DUE TO THE SOUND PROOFING MATERIAL GETTING IN THE WAY OF THE GROUND BOLT AND THE VEHICLE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE TURNING LEFT AT AN INTERSECTION AND THERE IS ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES TO ME OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS AND MOST RECENTLY, YESTERDAY, 5/20.

WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY USING CRUISE CONTROL, THE CRUISE CONTROL HAD FAILED WITHOUT WARNING AND THE STEERING LOCKS UP FOR A MOMENT WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AFFECTING MORE VEHICLES THAN JUST THE 2015 MODELS, AND THE RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE ALL AFFECTED YEAR MODELS. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY WITHOUT WARNING, AND OCCURS MULTIPLE TIMES A WEEK. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN DEC OF 2017, AND THE ISSUE HAS BEEN PRESENT SINCE MY OWNERSHIP.
