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.

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.

I STARTED HEARING SOME TICKING. AND NO BIG DEAL THE NEXT DAY THE MOTOR JUST VIBRATED AND THEM STOPPED ACCELERATING, STARTED RATTLING. FREAKED ME OUT BIG TIME, I'VE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS. I'M NO MECHANIC, BUT THIS AIN'T NORMAL. I FEAR THE WORST. *TR
Power train, Engine, Oct 23, 2014
I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK AND TRAVELING BETWEEN 70-75. THE ENGINE BEGAN TO FEEL ROUGH. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS BLINKING AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WAS ON. I EXITED THE FREEWAY AND CALLED THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THAT IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE IT TO THEM. THE ENGINE IDLED ROUGHLY AS IF IT WASN'T GETTING AIR OR GAS AND WOULD DIE. AS I DROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP IT SHIFTED ROUGHLY, WOULD ONLY GO 55, WAS SHAKING VIOLENTLY, AND HAD SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF POWER. THE TECHNICIAN SAID THE CODE WAS FOR A MISS FIRE ON PLUG 6. THEY CHECKED TO SEE IF THE PLUG OR WIRES HAD BECOME LOOSE. THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A VALVE SPRING AND LATER DECIDED IT WAS A BENT PUSH ROD AND HAVE DISASSEMBLED THE HEAD TO INSPECT FURTHER. THEY ARE CONTACTING THE ENGINEERING DEPT. AT GM TO FIND OUT WHAT WOULD CAUSE THIS ISSUE. THIS IS OUR SECOND TRUCK THIS YEAR. OUR FIRST WAS A 2014 SILVERADO 1500 2X4, PURCHASED IN MAY W/ 4000 MILES, ROLLED DOWN A HILL ON JULY 26TH AND CRASHED INTO ANOTHER CAR WHILE UNOCCUPIED, LOCKED AND IN PARK. GM WAS "UNABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG", AND CLOSED OUR CASE. THE DEALERSHIP WAS VERY HELPFUL AND THIS IS OUR REPLACEMENT TRUCK. WE TOOK A LOSS BUT UPGRADED TO THE 4X4 BECAUSE THEY HAD ALREADY BEEN COVERED IN THE RECALL OF JUNE 27, 2014 "IN EFFECTED VEHICLES, AN ELECTRICAL SIGNAL SHORT MAY CAUSE THE TRANSFER CASE TO SHIFT TO NEUTRAL WITH OUT THE DRIVER'S INPUT." WE HAVEN'T EVEN MADE OUR FIRST PAYMENT. *TR

AFTER VEHICLE SITS IN HOT SUNLIGHT FOR EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, AND AC IS RAN-- THERE IS A LOUD "POPPING NOISE" FROM THE CENTER AREA OF THE DASH. THE SOUND IS VERY SIMILAR TO A ROCK OR OBJECT HITTING THE WINDSHIELD. THIS ISSUE HAS CONTINUED AND RECENTLY TOOK VEHICLE IN FOR OTHER RECALL ISSUE AND HAD THEM CHECK THIS. THE SERVICE ADVISER FIRST TOLD ME THEY DUPLICATED THE ISSUE AND WOULD HAVE TO DISMANTLED THE DASH FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTICS. THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE SHOP FOR OVER A WEEK, AND THEY TOLD ME THE ISSUE SEEMED CORRECTED. THE COMPLETED SERVICE TICKET INDICATES PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED OR DETERMINED. THE DAY I DROVE HOME FROM THE SHOP THE VEHICLE MADE THIS SAME NOISE THREE TIMES. I WILL BE TAKING VEHICLE TO DIFFERENT GM DEALER FOR FOLLOW UP. *TR

THEY SAID A CODE FOR ENGINE MISFIRE CYLINDER # 5 AND REPLACED BAD WIRE WITH A NEW ONE. ON MY TICKET IT SAYS BULLETIN PIP5159. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME USUALLY THESE PLUG WIRES HAD BEEN FAILING ON TRUCKS WITH LESS MILES THEN MINE. SO I ASKED IF THE OTHER WIRES COULD FAIL AND HE SAID YES-SO BE AWARE AND READY FOR MORE TO FAIL. *TR

Engine and engine cooling, Power train, Jun 9, 2014
WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS BETWEEN 72 MPH +, THE VEHICLE WILL VIBRATE VERY BADLY TO THE POINT WHERE YOU CAN NOT DRIVE SO FAST. IT COMES AND GOES AND WHEN IT COMES BACK SOMETIMES EVEN AT REDUCED SPEEDS OF 65MPH THE VEHICLE STILL VIBRATES VERY BAD. I HAVE INFORMED GM OF MY ISSUE AND MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY CHOOSE NOT TO DO ANYTHING. REALLY, BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS. THE VIBRATION IS SO BAD THAT IT CAN NUMB YOUR BODY BY THE END OF YOUR DRIVE OR DISTRACT YOU ENOUGH TO CRASH. I DRIVE UP TO 9 HOURS WITH MY VEHICLE FOR WORK AND IT IS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT TO SEE IF I CAN GET HELP TO STOP THIS ISSUE FROM HAPPENING. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE ALSO HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND FROM MY UNDERSTANDING, GM IS IGNORING THEM AS WELL. *TR

UPON STARTUP, MY TRUCK'S CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CAR WAS RESTARTED AND THE LIGHT DID NOT CLEAR. CAR WAS TAKEN TO DEALER AT 10,383 MILES. THEY CHECKED THE CODES AND RECEIVED A HARD CODE P0420 BANK 1, CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILURE. THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS REPLACED AND THE CODES CLEARED OUT. MAINLY REPORTING THIS BECAUSE THE TRUCK IS FOUR AND A HALF MONTHS OLD AND HAS 10,383 MILES UPON FAILURE. CATALYTIC CONVERTERS SHOULD LAST LONGER. *TR

Vehicle speed control, Engine, Feb 28, 2014
I PULLED OUT OF A PARKING LOT ON TO A CITY STREET AND PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL A LITTLE, PLANNING TO GET UP TO ABOUT 25 MPH BECAUSE THERE WAS A RED LIGHT A BLOCK AWAY. THE TRUCK RESPONDED AS IF I HAD FLOORED THE PEDAL. I TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE PEDAL AND THE TRUCK KEPT ACCELERATING AT FULL THROTTLE. I HIT THE BRAKES THINKING THE CRUISE CONTROL HAD GONE NUTS, BUT HITTING THE BRAKES WOULD NOT TURN IT OFF. IT KEPT ACCELERATING WITH THE TACH OVER 5000. I SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE SPEED DROPPED DOWN TO IDLE. THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND I SHIFTED BACK TO DRIVE AND THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY STARTED ACCELERATING AGAIN AT FULL THROTTLE. I PUT IT BACK IN NEUTRAL, MOVED OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND TURNED THE KEY OFF. THEN I STARTED THE ENGINE AGAIN AND THE PROBLEM DISAPPEARED. I'M 72; IF MY WIFE HAD BEEN DRIVING BY HERSELF, SHE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE HAD A SERIOUS WRECK. THE TRUCK IS A 2014 SILVERADO, BOUGHT 4 WEEKS AGO, 6 CYLINDER WORK TRUCK. *TR

I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1 WEEK AGO TODAY. THE VEHICLE WAS DELIVERED 2 DAYS AGO. THE CHEVROLET DEALER DID NOT INFORM ME OF THE RECALL FOR POSSIBLE ENGINE FIRE. I CHECKED MY VIN NUMBER ONLINE AND IT SHOWS THAT MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECALLED ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND IT STILL HAS A WARNING FOR NOT BEING SERVICED AS PER CHEVROLET AND NHTSA WEBSITES. BASICALLY, THE CHEVROLET DEALER SOLD ME A NEW VEHICLE ON RECALL AGAINST THE COMPANY POLICY, DOCUMENT DCS3115 (NOTICE TO DEALERS), AS POSTED ON THIS WEBSITE . THE DEALER DID NOT INFORM ME IF THERE WAS ANY REPROGRAMMING DONE AS REQUIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER. I CALLED THE GENERAL SALES MANAGER WHO KNOWS MY VEHICLE TODAY AND HE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE RECALL AT ALL AND STATED HE GET BACK TO ME . ACCORDING TO GM CUSTOMER CARE AND AFTERSALES ON YOUR WEBSITE , ALL CHEVROLET AND GM DEALERS WERE SENT AND URGENT STOP DELIVERY ORDER ON JANUARY 10, 2014 ADDRESSED TO THE DEALER, GENERAL MANGERS, NEW VEHICLE SALES MANAGERS AND SERVICE MANAGERS TO STOP DELIVERY OF THE CHEVROLET SILVERADO AND TO REPROGRAM THEM PRIOR TO SALES. IN THE MEAN TIME I AM STUCK WITH THIS VEHICLE AND DO NOT KNOW WHETHER IT WAS SERVICED OR WHETHER IT IS AT RISK OF CATCHING FIRE. THIS HAS SHOWN LACK OF CONFIDENCE IN CHEVROLET AND ITS LOCAL DEALER IN COMMUNICATION, TRUST, AND CONFIDENCE. IT HAS PLACED ME AND MY FAMILY AT RISK. IT HAS VIOLATED THEIR RESPONSIBILITY OF DISCLOSURE TO THE CUSTOMER AND HAS BEEN NEGLIGENT IN ITS POLICIES AND PROTOCOL IN THE HANDLING OF RECALL AS MANDATED BY ITS CUSTOMER POLICIES GM CUSTOMER CARE DSC3115 AND US DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NHTSA MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY TITLE 49, UNITED STATES CODE CHAPTER 301 OF MAY 2013, OFFICE OF THE CHIEF COUNSEL.

Electrical system, Seats, Engine, Jan 19, 2014
I PURCHASED THE 2014 SILVERADO 1500 WHILE IT WAS RAINING. TEST DRIVE WAS FINE, BUT THE SALES PERSON ALREADY HAD THE VEHICLE RUNNING WITH THE DEFROSTER AND WIPERS ON. DROVE HOME (2 MILES) AND PARKED. TURNED ON THE FAN KNOB ( STANDARD WITH A/C MODEL) AND THE A/C TURNED ON, THIS OCCURRED NEARLY EVERY TIME I TURNED IT ON AND ASKED THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER ABOUT IT. I WAS TOLD I AM PROBABLY HITTING IT WITH MY KNUCKLES. I SINCE TRIED ONLY WHILE PINCHING THE KNOB TO AVOID THIS AND THE A/C STILL NEARLY TURNS ON EVERY TIME. ALSO WHEN THE TRUCK SITS A WHILE THE FIRST START IS A HARD ONE BUT AFTER RUNNING AND WARMED UP IT WILL BE FINE TO START. NOT SURE IF THE TRUCK BATTERY NEEDS A CHARGE AFTER SITTING ON THE LOT, I COULD ALSO SMELL A RUBBER BURNING ODOR OUTSIDE AND THROUGH THE VENTS, THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE IT WAS NEW BUT THEN I SEEN THERE WAS A RECALL 3 DAYS PRIOR. WHEN I TRIED ANCHORING MY SONS CHILD SEAT I FOUND NO SEAT ANCHORS IN THE CENTER REAR SEAT AND ONLY THE ENDS. I WORRY ABOUT HIS SEAT NEAR THE DOOR IF THERE IS A SIDE CRASH. LASTLY, WHY ISN'T THERE REAR SENSORS AT A MINIMUM A MANDATORY ON TRUCKS YET. CAMERAS CAN STILL BE OFFERED AS A OPTION BUT SENSORS SHOULD BE MANDATORY! *TR
