General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks. The battery positive (B+) cable rings may have been manufactured with excessive glue, potentially causing an intermittent electrical connection between the B+ cable and alternator.
An intermittent electrical connection between the B+ battery cable and the alternator could cause the vehicle to stall, increasing the risk of a crash. The intermittent connection could also lead to electrical arcing, which could generate sufficient heat to damage surrounding material, increasing the risk of a fire.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect for the presence of glue or other contamination at the B+ cable attachment to the alternator and clean the connection and reattach the B+ cable connection, as necessary. If arcing has damaged the cable, nut, or alternator, the dealer will replace the damaged components. All services will be performed free of charge.

HAD MY TRUCK PARKED FOR 5 HOURS AT MY GRANDPARENTS WENT TO LEAVE AND HAD NO POWER STEERING AND THE SERVICE POWER STEERING MESSAGE CAME ON THE DASH WHEN I STARTED IT IN THE DRIVEWAY. I CHECKED THE POWER STEERING FLUID AND IT WAS FULL. SO I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES AND STARTED IT BACK UP AGAIN AND POWER STEERING WAS STILL OUT. I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AGAIN AND LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES STARTED IT BACK UP AND THE POWER STEERING WAS STILL OUT BUT I WAS ABLE TO STEER EASIER THAN BEFORE SO I DROVE HOME. ALSO AT THE SAME TIME THE SERVICE ESC MESSAGE CAME ON ALONG WITH THE LIGHT ON THE DASH. THE SECOND TIME RESTARTING THE TRUCK THE SERVICE ESC MESSAGE AND LIGHT WENT AWAY. THE RECALL THAT WAS TO FIX THIS ISSUE HAD ALREADY BEEN COMPLETED ON MY TRUCK. I HAVE BEEN HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES AS WELL WHERE THE TRUCK WILL JERK INTO SECOND GEAR AND WHEN SLOWING DOWN FROM 2ND TO FIRST IT WILL JERK AGAIN. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO BULLETINS ON THIS AND NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I ASKED THE SERVICE GUY THEN WHY DOES THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT ROUGH IF THERE IS NOTHING WRONG? I QUOTE "THE NEW TRANSMISSIONS IN THESE TRUCKS ARE SUPPOSED TO SHIFT THAT WAY".
Power train, Service brakes, Aug 31, 2020
VEHICLE IS PRODUCING A HARD SHIFT BETWEEN 1ST & 2ND GEAR PRIMARILY ON COLD STARTS. MORE RECENTLY IS HAS BEEN DOING MORE THROUGH OUT THE DAY BUT NOT AS SERVE. THIS STARTED AROUND 7500 MILES, CURRENTLY AT 23,000+. THE VEHICLE HAS NOW BEEN TO THREE DEALERS (6+ ATTEMPTS) WITH NO RESOLUTION. ONE DEALER TOOK THE VALVE BODY OFF FOR INSPECTION AND CLEANING. OTHER DEALERS HAVE TRIED REPROGRAMMING. LAST ATTEMPT AT REPAIR WAS THE WEEK 8/25/2020 WITH NO RESOLUTION AS THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE (HAD THE VEHICLE FOR A WEEK). THE NEXT DAY I EXPERIENCED THE HARSH SHIFT TWICE IN ONE DAY. I ALSO EXPERIENCE TRANSMISSION SLIPPAGE AT CONSTANT SPEEDS BETWEEN 45 & 60MPH. A BULLETIN CAME OUT FROM GM THE WEEK OF 8/25/2020 INDICATING NOTE TO REPAIR/REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AS THIS IS NORMAL. HOW IS THIS NORMAL WHEN IT SHIFT SO HARD IT THROUGH THE OCCUPANTS FORWARD AND REARWARD IN THE SEAT. HOW IS THIS SAFE FOR A YOUNG CHILD/TODDLER? THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE WHIPLASH IN YOUNGER CHILDREN. I HAVE IN FIRM BELIEVE THIS IS A CAUSE FOR MY NECK AND SHOULDER PAIN. AS AN ADDED NOTE: I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE GM EXECUTIVE RESOLUTION TEAM ON THIS ISSUE AND AGAIN NO RESOLUTION. I AM ALSO EXPERIENCING AN ISSUE WITH THE PARKING BRAKE COMING ON BY ITSELF WHEN THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY OFF AND THE KEY OUT OF THE VEHICLE. AGAIN DEALERS CANNOT DUPLICATE EVEN THOUGH ONE SERVICE REP WITNESSED IT WHILE DROPPING THE VEHICLE OFF FOR SERVICE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ANYONE PERFORMING BRAKE SERVICE AS THE BRAKE COULD ACTIVATE AND CAUSE A PINCH POINT. OVERALL I HAVE SEVERAL OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES REGARDING RADIO, DIC DISPLAY & CRUISE CONTROL. ONLY THE DIC DISPLAY HAS BEEN CORRECTED. I ALSO HAVE HAD LEAKING REAR SLIDER AND SQUEAKS IN THE FRONT LEFT DASH, RIGHT FRONT FLOORBOARD AND UPPER LH B-PILLAR. I ALSO HAD THE LEFT DASH PANEL REPLACED DUE TO A BROKEN TAB. VIDEO UPON REQUEST

PURCHASED VEHICLE LAST OCTOBER. MILEAGE INDICATES 8857 MILES, AND BRAKE INDICATION SAYS 97% BRAKE LIFE LEFT. IT WAS LESS THAN THAT A FEW MONTHS AFTER OWNING IT, THEN WENT TO 97% AND HAS STAYED THERE. DEALER SAYS BRAKE PADS A FINE. YES, NO DOUBT BUT THERE IS NO WAY 97% CAN BE LEFT. TRANSMISSION AT TIMES HARMERS INTO GEAR WHEN SHIFTING FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. DOCUMENT ID 4605342 STATES FIRST SHIFT OF THE DAY MAYBE HARSH. IT'S NOT JUST THE FIRST SHIFT OF THE DAY THAT IT HAPPENS. THERE ARE TIMES SHIFTING BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND GEAR THE VEHICLE BRIEFLY SLOWS THEN HAMMERS INTO SECOND GEAR THAT JOLTS YOU IN YOUR SEAT, ENOUGH YOU SHAKE IN YOUR SEAT. THE MOST RECENT TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS MOVING IN A PAVED PARKING LOT.

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

THREE SECONDS AFTER I AM MOVING IN REVERSE INSTRUMENT PANEL STARTS FLASHING WARNING MESSAGES SUCH AS NO SPEED OVER 62 MPH, ELECTRONIC BRAKE SYSTEMS SOMETHING, SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON, AND ONCE AGAIN I WAS WITHOUT BRAKES! I WAS NOT GOING FAST, NOR IN TRAFFIC, BUT THE FACT REMAINS I HAD NO BRAKES, AGAIN! THIS ISSUE WAS 'FIXED' TWO MONTHS EARLIER IN ANOTHER RECALL FOR THE BRAKES. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I LOST THE ABILITY TO BRAKE, BUT THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME. THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IN ITS ENTIRETY, I MEAN TAKEN OFF THE STREETS. IT'S NOT JUST THE DRIVERS OF THE TRUCK WHO ARE IN DANGER, OTHER DRIVERS, PEDESTRIANS, BICYCLISTS ARE ALSO IN DANGER. A FATALITY IS IMMINENT BUT I ASK THE NHTSA HOW MANY FATALITIES BEFORE THIS DANGEROUS VEHICLE IS TAKEN OFF THE ROAD? EVERY SAFETY DEVICE ON THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECALLED: AIRBAGS, SEATBELT, AND BRAKE SYSTEMS. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE. THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE LOST THE ABILITY TO BRAKE ARE FAR GREATER THAN WHAT IS REPORTED HERE. PLEASE DON'T EXPECT GM TO FIX THIS ISSUE WHEN THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW THE CAUSE BEHIND THE PROBLEM TO BEGIN WITH! FIRST IT WAS ONSTAR, NOW IT IS THE COMPANY THEY HIRED TO CREATE THEIR COMPUTERIZED BRAKES. COMPUTERS HAVING SO MUCH CONTROL OVER VEHICLES, I'M LEARNING, IS NOT SAFE.

THIS PROBLEM OCCURS AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN ANY DISTANCE, BUT FAR ENOUGH TO SHIFT GEARS IN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND WHEN THE AUTO ENGINE STOP IS DEACTIVATED MANUALLY OR AUTO ENGINE STOP DOESN'T ACTIVATE DUE TO DRIVING CONDITIONS. WHEN THE VEHICLE COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP THE TORQUE CONVERTER LOCKS AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO LURCH FORWARD. THE PROBLEM IS NOTICEABLE IN TRAFFIC, BUT MORE OF A CONCERN WHILE PRECISION PARKING AND WHEN MOVING SLOWLY WITHOUT THROTTLE OR BRAKE BEING APPLIED. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN MY VEHICLE AND IN ALL SIMILAR LOANER VEHICLES THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAS ASSIGNED TO ME DURING SERVICE. SPECIFICALLY, WHEN PARKING THE VEHICLE AND WHEN INCHING FORWARD TO A COMPLETE STOP WITHOUT BRAKE OR THROTTLE, THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY LURCH FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING AND HIT THE SIGN, ANOTHER CAR, OR CURB. THIS PROBLEM IS NOT INTERMITTENT AND HAPPENS DURING EVERY DRIVE AND STOP.

I WAS STOPPED ON A HILLSIDE WITH ENGINE RUNNING, SHIFT LEVER IN PARK, AND THE TRUCK STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARDS. THE TRUCK COMPUTER PUT ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKES. I TRIED THIS THREE DIFFERENT TIMES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM OF IT ROLLING BACKWARDS.

VEHICLE SHIFTS HARSHLY MAKING CONTROL QUESTIONABLE AT TIMES. I WENT TO ACCELERATE AROUND A VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER UNTIL IT FOUND A GEAR. SOMEONE WILL GET HURT BECAUSE OF THIS TRUCK ESPECIALLY ON SLIPPERY WINTER ROADS. BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES NO FIX. PLEASE HELP
