Air bags, side/window, curtain, inflatorJul 1, 2021
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2015-2016 GMC Sierra 1500, 2500, 3500, and Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2500, and 3500 trucks. The roof-rail air bag (RRAB) inflator end cap may detach from the inflator, or the inflator sidewall may rupture.
A separated inflator end cap or inflator rupture can allow compressed gas to escape, resulting in the end cap or other components being propelled into the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury or crash.
Dealers will replace the left and right side RRAB modules, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters informing owners of the safety risk were mailed on August 18, 2021. Owners will receive a second notice when the remedy is available. Phase I owner notification letters were mailed on May 5, 2022. Phase II owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on May 31, 2022. Owners may contact GMC customer service at 1-888-988-7267 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020.

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.

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.

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.

VERY STIFF BRAKE PEDAL WHILE TRYING TO PARK AT SLOW SPEEDS. COULD NOT PRESS THE PEDAL HARD ENOUGH TO STOP THE VEHICLE WHILE I WAS BACKING INTO MY PARKING SPOT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS THERE ARE PEDESTRIANS AND OTHER VEHICLES IN THE PARKING LOT. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. IT ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I BACKED INTO MY PARKING SPACE WHEN I RETURNED HOME.

AIR CONDITIONING NOT WORKING. BLOWING HOT DUE TO WORN HOLE IN HOSE (THOUSANDS OF KNOWN ISSUES ALL WITH EXACTLY THE SAME SYMPTOMS AND FIXES... E X A C T L Y!!!!!!) CALLED CHEV, THE GUY SAID NHTSA TELLS THEM WHAT TO PAY FOR AND WHAT TO RECALL SO THEY'RE HANDS ARE CLEAN OF THIS ISSUE. PARDON????? WORN HOLE? CHECK BAD CONDENSER? CHECK NO BRACKET? CHECK DEALERSHIP/MANUFACTURER PARTICIPATION? NO WAY IN HELL! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE BUSINESS AND THERE'S NO WAY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL, THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU AND ANYONE ELSE I CAN CALL ARE NOT GOING TO HEAR ABOUT THIS. OH YEAH, THE A/C NEVER GETS USED, OTHERWISE I WOULD'VE HAD IT FIXED 20K MILES AGO UNDER WARRANTY BUT I DIDN'T KNOW IT WASN'T WORKING. THERE'S RESIDUE ON THE HOSES FROM THE LEAK WHICH THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD'VE CAUGHT BUT THEY DIDN'T. MAYBE I GO THAT ROUTE?

MY COMPLAINT OR SAFETY NOTICE IS THAT ON AUGUST 12 2018 THE BRAKE PEDAL ON MY 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 BEGAN COMPRESSING A SHORT DISTANCE AND THEN BECAME EXTREMELY HARD, THE VEHICLE IS BY ALL PHYSICAL MEANS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP EVEN AT A VERY SLOW SPEED. I HAD MY TRUCK TOWED TO MY DEALER BELIEVING IT WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE, AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE "BRAKE SYSTEM VACUUM PUMP AND BOOSTER HAD FAILED DUE TO INTERNAL CONTAMINATION. THERE IS NO WARNING IN THE VEHICLE SENSING SYSTEM TO ADVISE THE OPERATOR TO HAVE THE BRAKES SERVICED FOR THIS ISSUE. CHEVROLET ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB #PIT5361A & #PIT5361B) IN 2016. OBVIOUSLY THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. MINE BRAKES FAILED AFTER JUST PULLING IN MY DRIVEWAY FROM A 600 MILE TRIP. HAD THIS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEED, I WOULD HAVE LIKELY BEEN INJURED OR KILLED, AS WOULD ANY VEHICLE OCCUPANTS IN A CAR I COULD HAVE POTENTIALLY HIT. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM ONLINE, AND THERE ARE AN ENDLESS AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS POSTED FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL THAT I CAN FIND. IT WILL COST ME $1626 FOR THE REPAIR, I ASSUME THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE THE SAME TYPE THAT FAILED. UNDOUBTEDLY SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED, THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES DRIVING AROUND AS I WRITE THIS COMPLAINT THAT ARE UNAWARE THEIR BRAKES MIGHT FAIL THE NEXT MOMENT THEY NEED THEM. ASK YOURSELF IF THIS HAS ALREADY CAUSED SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH, BUT THE FAILURE PERHAPS COULD NOT BE PINPOINTED DUE TO THE DAMAGE OF THE CRASH, REMEMBER THERE IS NO SENSOR OR WARNING FOR THIS ISSUE BEING LOGGED INTO THE CARS COMPUTER SYSTEM. ODDS ARE THIS HAS ALREADY CAUSED HARM. I'M ASKING THAT A RECALL BE IMPLEMENTED AND A SAFETY WARNING BE IMMEDIATELY RELEASED FOR VEHICLES THAT HAVE THIS DESIGN FLAW IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM. YOUR IMMEDIATE INTERVENTION COULD SAVE A LIFE.

MY 2015 SILVERADO HAS APPROX 80K MILES AND THE AC BLOWS HOT. THE DEALERSHIP FOUND THE AC CONDENSER CRACKED. I UNDERSTAND FROM READING MANY GM FORUMS THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE HAPPENING SINCE 2014. GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE FAULTY DESIGN AND STILL HAS YET TO ISSUE A RECALL OR TSB. I HAVE BEEN QUOTED A PRICE OF 1200 DOLLARS TO FIX A KNOWN ISSUE.

BRAKE SYSTEM FAILS AT LOW IDLE SPEED. WHEN TRUCK IS PUT IN GEAR THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES STIFF AND VEHICLE CANNOT STOP. BRAKE PEDAL ALSO DOES THIS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. CHEVROLET SAYS THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. HOW IS THIS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE? THE PROBLEM IS A MECHANICAL PUMP CALLED A POWER BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP. WE WERE TOLD THIS CAN BE REPLACED FOR $1100 AND IS NOT A WARRANTED PART. THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP BRAKE PRESSURE AT LOW SPEED IS TO HOLD YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND GIVE VEHICLE GAS TO INCREASE THE RPM'S. HOW IS THIS SAFE?

TRUCK SHAKES SEVERELY WHEN DRIVING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 70 MPH ON MANY DIFFERENT ROAD TYPES. THIS PROBLEM STARTED NOT TOO LONG AFTER I GOT MY TRUCK NEW. AFTER COMPLAINING ABOUT IT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THIS IS "STANDARD 22 INCH WHEEL VIBRATION." AFTER I HAD ABOUT 35000 MILES ON IT THE VIBRATION GOT SO BAD I COULDN'T STAND TO DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE TIRES WERE WORE OUT EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS STILL PLENTY OF TREAD. HAD ANOTHER SHOP LOOK AT IT AND THEY FOUND ONE OF THE WHEELS WAS EVER SO SLIGHTLY BENT. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER TO CONFIRM. THEY SOLD ME A NEW WHEEL, THE PROBLEM DIDN'T GO AWAY OR CHANGE IN ANY WAY. I BOUGHT NEW TIRES AS THEY RECOMMENDED, PROBLEM WAS STILL THERE BUT NOT SO SEVERE UNTIL AFTER DRIVING A FEW THOUSAND MILES. THE MORE MILES I PUT ON THE TIRES THE WORSE THE VIBRATION GETS. TOOK IT BACK INTO THE DEALER AGAIN RECENTLY, THEY KEEP TELLING ME IT'S STANDARD VIBRATION FOR 22 INCH WHEELS. I KNOW THIS IS BOGUS BECAUSE I KNOW A FEW PEOPLE WITH THE EXACT SAME WHEELS AND TIRES THAT DON'T HAVE THE SHAKING PROBLEM, THEY CAN DRIVE AS FAST AS THEY WANT AND IT'S SMOOTH. EVERYBODY THAT RIDES WITH ME ASKS WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY TRUCK. HOW CAN I CONVINCE THE DEALER THAT THERE IS AN ACTUAL PROBLEM?
