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.

IT'S LIKE THERE WAS NO BATTERY INSTALLED. EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS I LOSE STEERING, THE BRAKES SEEM TO FADE BUT I AM ABLE TO STOP ON THE SLOW TURNS LIKE INTO THE PARKING LOT. IN ALL INSTANCES THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING. ONE TIME I NOTICED AN INCREASE IN THE A/C SPEED WITHIN THE CAB AND THE 'SERVICE STABILITRAC' ILLUMINATED BUT AS SOON AS I TURNED ABOUT HALF WAY INTO A PARKING AREA, IT DIED, BUT CONTINUED TO PICK BACK UP ON THE ENGINE RUNNING. THE LOCAL DEALER HAD ALSO PERFOMED SOME SERVICE BULLETIN REGARDING THE CAMPAIGN FOR 'LOSS OF STEERING ASSIST' AT 19,340 MILES. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 42,000 MILES..... THE DATE "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN" WAS TODAY 7/16/2019 BUT THE OTHER TIMES WERE VARIOUS BEFORE THIS DATE.

MY 2014 CHEVY SILVERADO SUFFERS FROM THE SAME LOSS OF POWER STEERING ISSUE GM JUST ISSUED A RECALL FOR IN SEPT. OF 2018 FOR THE 2015 MODEL OF THE SILVERADO. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO PARK OR PERFORMING LOW SPEED TURNS THE POWER STEERING WITH FAIL MAKING IT INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT TO SAFELY CONTROL THE VEHICLE. 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.

APPROX. 1 WEEK AGO WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, STABILITRAK ERROR POPS UP ON SCREEN AND POWER STEERING GOES OUT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK. A FEW DAYS LATER WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON AND ENGAGED, STABILITRAK ERROR DISPLAYS AGAIN. INITIATED MY TURN SIGNAL TO SIGNAL LANE CHANGE WHICH DISENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON BUT NOT ENGAGED, THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED ON IT'S OWN CAUSING THE ENGINE TO REV AS AN ATTEMPT WAS MADE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE. DEALERSHIP SAYS IT MIGHT BE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE ASSEMBLY AND FUSE BLOCK AND SAID IT WOULD COST ME $768 BUT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE IT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM AND IS LIKELY JUST THE STARTING POINT. HAD THE RECALL DONE BACK IN AUGUST OF 2018 FOR THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING (WHERE THEY SIMPLY ERASED THE SOFTWARE AND LOADED NEW SOFTWARE) SO THE DEALERSHIP TAKES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ISSUE.

I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK USED 3 MO AGO, FROM A DEALER WITH ~101,000 MI ON IT. IN THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, AFFECTING MULTIPLE SYSTEMS. INITIALLY, THE PROBLEMS INVOLVED THE STABILITRACK AND POWER STEERING DASH WARNINGS ALARMING, WITH A SLIGHT CHANGE IN RESPONSIVENESS OF THE STEERING. IT HAS PROGRESSED TO COMPLETE LOSS OF ELECTRICAL POWER (DASH, AC, RADIO, EVERYTHING GOES OUT, LOSS OF POWER ASSISTED STEERIN, AND 2/3 TIMES WITH THE VEHICLE REQUIRING BEING RESTARTED MANUALLY (ENGINE HAD ALSO SHUT DOWN). TYPICALLY AFTER THE ELECTRICAL FLICKER EITHER THE STABILITRACK, THE POWER STEERING OR BOTH MESSAGES WITH ALARM. THIS HAS GENERALLY HAPPENED WHEN APPROACHING A STOP, SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 20 MPH AND 5 MPH, BUT IT NEXT ORIGINATES AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS STOPPED. 2 OF THE 3 TIMES ALSO INCLUDED STOPPING WITH A GENTLE TURN, AS APPROACHING A STOP, FROM WHICH I WOULD THEN TURN. ONE OF THE ELECTRICAL FLICKERS OCCURRED ON THE FREEWAY WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO CAPTURE A PICTURE AS THIS IS OCCURRING WHILE DRIVING, AND THE WARNING INDICATOR TURNS OFF AFTER 3-5 SECONDS.

VEHICLE HAS SEVERAL ELECTRICAL ISSUES. FIRST, POWER STEERING FAILS AT LOW SPEED TURNS. THEN, THE CAR OCCASIONALLY LOSES ALL ELECTRICAL POWER (SCREENS, GAUGES, LIGHTS, STARTER, GARAGE DOOR OPENER) WHILE PARKED AND OFF. THEN LAST WEEK, IT LOST ALL ELECTRICAL POWER AT 70+ MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. LOST POWER STEERING, ALL SCREENS TURNED OFF, GAUGES WHEN TO ZERO, ETC. THIS LASTED FOR ABOUT 3 SECONDS AND THEN EVERYTHING CAME BACK ON. MANY WARNING LIGHTS INCLUDING POWER STEERING, TRACTION CONTROL, PARKING ASSIST DISABLED. THIS ALSO GAVE A 4WD SERVICE WARNING. NOW, I GET THE SERVICE 4WD WARNING EVERY TIME I START THE VEHICLE AND IT WILL NOT GO INTO 4 WD.

CRUISE CONTROL WILL SHUT OFF WHEN USING TURNING SIGNAL OR ROLLING UP WINDOWS. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS IN BUSY INTERSTATE TRAFFIC. SERVICE STABLI TRACK AND STEERING ASSIST REDUCED WILL COME UP ON DISPLAY. POWER STEERING IS INTERMITTENT WHEN TURNING. HEADLIGHTS FLICKER WHEN TURNING SIGNALS ARE USED. TRUCK WILL COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN FOR A SPLIT SECOND WHILE DRIVING THEN EVERYTHING COMES BACK ON, COMPLETE LOSS OF CONTROL WHEN THIS HAPPENS. WHEN KNOB FOR HEADLIGHTS IS TURNED FROM AUTO TO ON POSITION THE DASH AND INSTRUMENT PANEL GETS DIM AND STABLI TRACK AND REDUCED STEERING ASSIST MESSAGE COMES ON. REAR PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT LOCK USING FOB, SOMETIMES I WILL HAVE TO HIT THE UNLOCK BUTTON MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE DOOR WILL UNLOCK AFTER LOCK HAS BEEN MANUALLY PUSHED DOWN. PASSENGER SEAT BELT DING IS ALSO INTERMITTENT, SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT WORK AT ALL. MY TRUCK JUST NOW STARTED HAVING ALL OF THESE ISSUES AT THE EXACT SAME TIME. WE DROVE FROM TEXAS TO KENTUCKY AND BACK TO TEXAS AND THESE ISSUES ALL STARTED DURING THIS TRIP. IT IS NOT SAFE FOR MY FAMILY, I HAVE ALWAYS BOUGHT CHEVROLET AND CURRENTLY OWN THIS TRUCK AND A TAHOE BUT THEY MAY BE MY LAST. ALL BULBS ARE GOOD, ALL FUSES AND RELAYS ARE GOOD. TRUCK NOW HAS 66000 MILES ON IT. BATTERY WAS REPLACED AROUND 59000 MILES. SEEMS TO BE A WIRING OR ECM (COMPUTER) ISSUE TO ME. I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS SIMILAR TO MINE BUT YET NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR MY VIN NUMBER.

WHEN DRIVING TRUCK AND TURNING THE STEERING GETS HARD AND TAKES A FEW SECONDS TO CONTROL IT AGAIN. ALSO WHEN I TURN LEFT OR RIGHT DRIVING SLOW THE POWER STEERING GETS HARD AND CAUSES STEREO SCREEN TO TURN OFF FOR A FEW SECONDS, AND CAUSES HEADLIGHTS TO DIM. ALSO THE INTERIOR LIGHTS AND DASH LIGHTS DIM. IT'S VERY UNSAFE WHEN TURNING, CAN ALMOST LOSE COMPLETE CONTROL FOR STEERING JERKING. NOT ONLY DOES THIS HAPPEN WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION BUT ALSO WHEN TRUCK IS STATIONARY.

: THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM TEMPORARILY FAIL WITHOUT WARNING DURING OPERATION, CAUSING THE AMOUNT OF EFFORT NEEDED TO TURN THE WHEEL TO FLUCTUATE DRAMATICALLY DURING THE MANEUVER AS THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM CYCLES ON AND OFF. THE ISSUE IS ESPECIALLY PREVALENT DURING LOW-SPEED MANEUVERS AND CAN BE ACCOMPANIED BY THE FAILURE OF OTHER SYSTEMS SUCH AS THE RADIO, STABILITY CONTROL, DOOR-LOCK CYCLING, AIR CONDITION OR CRUISE CONTROL. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY, WHEN I'M PARKING OR MAKING A TURN. I ALMOST CRASHED INTO A VEHICLE IN MID TURN AS I LOST POWER STEERING AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. I PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTARTED THE TRUCK.
