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.

ON 7.3.2019, I WAS BACKING INTO A PARKING SPACE WHEN A LOUD NOISE OCCURRED. I GOT OUT AND MY TRUCK WAS SITTING ON THE GROUND AS MY FRONT DRIVER SIDE TIRE WAS BROKE OFF AND RESTING ON THE GROUND. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST CHEVY DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE CONTROL ARM HAD FAILED CAUSING MY TIRE TO BREAK OFF. AUGUST 8TH, THIS HAPPENED AGAIN BUT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THANKFULLY THIS HAPPENED AT MY HOME WHEN PULLING INTO THE DRIVEWAY. I AM NOT SURE HOW THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED SEEING AS THIS IS OBVIOUSLY FAULTY CONTROL ARMS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE TRUCK. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A CATRASTOPHE HAD I BEEN ON TRAVELING AT HIGHER RATES OF SPEED. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR AND IS QUITE RIDICULOUS SEEING AS THE TRUCK IS NOT THAT OLD. I AM HOPING THAT CHEVY WILL MAKE THIS RIGHT BEFORE OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE ARE INJURED. I CAN ALSO PROVIDE PICTURES OF BOTH INCIDENTS

Service brakes, Jul 23, 2019, crash
BRAKE FAILURE. WHILE BACKING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY AT A SPEED OF ONLY 10-15 MPH THE VEHICLES BRAKE PEDAL BECAME ROCK HARD AND WOULD NOT DEPRESS, I AM A 220 LB. MAN WHO IS WHAT I FEEL IN GOOD SHAPE AND HAD TO USE BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND ALL MY STRENGTH JUST TO ATTEMPT TO SLOW IT DOWN. I WAS UNABLE TO FULLY BE ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN I IMPACTED THE CORNER OF MY GARAGE WHICH RESULTED IN MINOR BUMPER DAMAGE , HOWEVER NO ONE WAS HURT THANK GOD. THE ODD THING IS ONCE I STOPPED AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK THE BRAKE PEDAL SEEMED TO BUILD PRESSURE AGAIN AND WAS FINE? AFTER A LITTLE INVESTIGATION WITH THE VEHICLE I CAN RECREATE THE ISSUE IF I PUMP THE BRAKES 4 TO 5 TIMES IN QUICK SUCCESION WHICH RESULTS AGAIN IN A ROCK HARD PEDAL AND LOSS OF BRAKING. ONCE I REV THE ENGINE IN NEUTRAL I RESTORE PRESSURE BACK TO THE BRAKE PEDAL AND HAVE NO ISSUES. I AM ALMOST POSITIVE THIS IS A BRAKE VACUUM ISSUE AND WILL BE TAKING TO A MECHANIC ASAP TO LOOK INTO IT.

I BOUGHT THIS 2014 SILVERADO NEW. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE FOGGING UP ON THE INSIDE WHICH MAKES IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.

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!

THERE ARE SHAVINGS IN TRANNY FLUID. ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE TRUCK JUST WOULDN'T SHIFT OR GO WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE. CHEVY HAS PUT FAULTY TORQUE CONVERTERS IN THESE TRUCKS AND THEY NEED TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS PROBLEM. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPEN TO THEM.
