REAR CENTER LEAF SPRING BROKE ON DRIVERS SIDE AND THEN TURNED AND HIT BODY, A MONTH OR SO LATER PASSENGER SIDE DID THE SAME THING. GM KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM , THEY EVEN SEND A LETTER SAYING SO. IT SEEMS TO ME THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IF THESE BROKEN LEAFS ARE FALLING OUT TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY?

THE DASH ON MY TRUCK HAS CRACKED BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ALSO BY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL. ONLINE FORUMS PROVE THAT GMT900 VEHICLES (TAHOE, SUBURBAN, YUKON, SILVERADO, SIERRA) HAVE THIS ISSUE. THE HEADLIGHTS KEEP BLOWING AND HAVE REPLACED THEM 8 TIMES. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM DUE TO HAVING TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. ALSO BOTH RIGHT SIDE DOORS WILL NOT UNLOCK AND THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WHEN YOU HAVE A SMALL CHILD.

Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 8, 2016
I HAVE REGULAR MAINTENANCE DONE ON VEHICLE FROM CERTIFIED GMC DEALERSHIP. HOWEVER, A FEW DAYS AGO WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE BOTH THE ENGINE LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO DISPLAY LOW ENGINE WARNING AND LOSING ALMOST ALL ACCELERATION. TOOK IT IN TO DEALERSHIP, AND WAS CHARGED NEARLY $800 FOR REPAIR.
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 6, 2016
I HAVE THE ENGINE WITH ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT AND AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INSTATE THE ENGINE GOES IN TO FAILURE MODE. LIFTER COLLAPSED TEARING THE CAM UP AS WELL. SPENT ABOUT 3000 DOLLARS HAVING ISSUE FIXED WITH NEW GM PARTS ONLY TO HAVE IT FAIL AGAIN. CALLED GM AND THEY SAID THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT IT'S FROM FAULTY PARTS AND IT WAS THE CUSTOMERS PROBLEM. THE ENGINE SMOKES BAD AND BURNS OIL AND RAW GAS SITS ON THE PISTON WITHOUT BEING BURNED OFF PROPERLY.

Other or unspecified, Jan 18, 2016
THE DASHBOARD HAS SUBSTANTIAL CRACKING. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT AND HAS NOT HAD ANY CHEMICALS USED TO CLEAN THE DASHBOARD SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED NEW. I'M WORRIED ABOUT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE AIRBAGS IF THEY WERE TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE SHARP PLASTIC EDGES OF THE CRACKS WHEN THEY DEPLOY. I'M ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT BROKEN PLASTIC PIECES BECOMING AIRBORNE IN THE CAB IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, AS I USUALLY HAVE MY 3 YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT.
Other or unspecified, Jan 13, 2016
MY DASH IS CRACKING AND I AM WORRIED IT WILL PUNCTURE THE AIR BAG. THIS CAN NOT BE SAFE. I HAVE READ THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. WHY IS THE ISSUE NOT BEING RESOLVED?
Other or unspecified, Jan 5, 2016
THE DASH ON MY TRUCK HAS CRACKED BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ALSO BY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL. ONLINE FORUMS PROVE THAT GMT900 VEHICLES (TAHOE, SUBURBAN, YUKON, SILVERADO, SIERRA) HAVE THIS ISSUE. IT IS TIME THAT GM STARTS A RECALL FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE DASH DESIGN. IN THE EVENT OF A WRECK AND AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT THE BROKEN DASH COULD EASILY SEND PLASTIC FRAGMENTS THROUGHOUT THE CABIN.

DASHBOARD CRACKING
Other or unspecified, Sep 18, 2015
WAS DRIVING AND NOTICED A RATTLE NOISE IN THE DASH. LOOKED AROUND THE TOP OF THE DASH AND FOUND 2 CRACKS (2 AND 3 INCHES LONG) ON THE DASHBOARD ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I NEVER PUT ANYTHING ON THE DASHBOARD. IT LOOKS LIKE PROBABLY A CRACK CAUSED BY THE HEAT.
Air bags, Sep 9, 2015
ABOUT A YEAR GO STARDED TO SEE A CRACK ON THE DASHBOARD BY THE AIR BAG
Other or unspecified, Aug 3, 2015
NOT NECESSARILY AN INCIDENT. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK USED IN JANUARY 2014. THE DASH WAS ALREADY CRACKED. SINCE THEN PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THE DASHES CRACKING ON GM TRUCKS AND YUKONS 2008-2010. MINE SINCE I BOUGHT IT HAS CRACKED MORE, AND COMING LOOSE, ONE CRACK IS NEAR THE AIR BAG. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO GM'S ATTENTION AT MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT AND WANT TO CHARGE ME THE FULL PRICE OF THE DASH TO REPLACE IT WITH THE SAME THING THAT WAS THERE, SO IT CAN BREAK/CRACK AGAIN??? I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP THEY SAY THEYLL FIX IT ONLY FOR A PERCENTAGE FOR THE TIME PAST THE WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE, AND THAT ITS A ONE TIME DEAL I CANT GET THE PRICE AND GO BACK LATER. THIS HAS GONE UNRECOGNISED BY GM AS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD IF AIR BAGS DEPLOY.
Other or unspecified, Jul 12, 2015
THE SPRING ON THE SPARE TIRE HOLDER BROKE AND I FOUND IT ON THE GROUND. THE SPRING ITSELF IS NOT AVAILABLE AND I HAD TO HAVE THE DEALER REPLACE THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY AT A COST OF NEARLY $300. HAD THIS TIRE COME LOOSE DURING HIGH SPEED TRAVEL IT COULD HAVE CAUSED LOSS OF CONTROL. I GUESS I'M LUCKY I FOUND THE SPRING AND THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, A LOUD BANGING SOUND WAS HEARD UNDER THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A STEEL SPRING THAT INDEPENDENTLY FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SPARE TIRE CARRIER ASSEMBLY FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000. UPDATED 8/31/15*CN UPDATED 10/30/2017*CN
Other or unspecified, Jun 23, 2015
UPON ENTERING THE VEHICLE, I NOTICED A LINE ON THE DASHBOARD, AND WHEN I RAN MY FINGERS ACROSS IT TO CHECK IT OUT. I DISCOVERED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED. WHEN I GOT HOME I INSPECTED THE CRACK A LITTLE CLOSER AND REALIZED THAT THIS CRACK HAD BEEN THERE FOR AWHILE, I JUST COULD NOT SEE IT. THE OLDER PART OF THE CRACK WAS BLACK AND THE NEW CRACK WAS GRAY. THIS CRACK IS CONSISTENT WITH OTHER GM TRUCK OWNERS, AND WHAT THEY ARE EXPERIENCING WITH THESE TYPE VEHICLES. THIS CRACK IS IN THE SAME VULNERABLE LOCATION NEAR THE UPPER LEFT CORNER OF THE AIRBAG. I AM CURRENTLY WORKING WITH GMC TO REPLACE THIS FAULTY MATERIAL. THIS TRUCK IS 6 YEARS OLD AND HAS LOW MILEAGE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN IT COMES TO THE AIRBAG DEPLOYING. NO ONE KNOWS HOW MUCH OF THE DASHBOARD WILL DEPLOY WITH THE AIRBAG. GMC NEEDS A RECALL... THE INTERNET IS FULL OF TESTIMONIES ABOUT GM PRODUCTS CRACKING DASHBOARDS. AN INVESTIGATION IS NECESSARY TO FIND OUT ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL USED IN MANUFACTURING THESE DASHBOARDS.
Other or unspecified, May 19, 2015
MY DASHBOARD IS DISINTEGRATING. IT STARTED WITH A FEW HAIRLINE CRACKS, BUT NOW THERE ARE FIST SIZED HOLES IN MY DASHBOARD, AND IT IS FULL OF CRASKS. IF I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT, I WOULD HAVE A FACE FULL OF PLASTIC SHARDS.

Electrical system, Vehicle speed control, Mar 23, 2015
I'M HAVING ELECTRICAL/COMPUTER PROBLEMS THAT STARTED OVER A YEAR AGO AND CONTINUE TO INCREASE. FIRST, MY SPEAKERS GO OFF AND ON AS THEY PLEASE. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SPEAKER IS THE ONLY ONE THAT STAYS ON CONSISTENTLY, AND IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HITTING BUMPS OR ANYTHING ELSE. SECOND, MY POWER LOOKS HAVE GONE OUT. MY KEY FOB WILL STILL WORK THEM AND THEY STILL LOCK AND UNLOCK WHEN TRUCK IS MOVED BETWEEN PARK AND DRIVE. BUT THE BUTTONS ON THE DOOR DO NOT WORK. I'VE REPLACED ALL THE FUSES, AND STILL, NOTHING. THIRD, MY CRUISE CONTROL IS GOING OUT. ON A LONG DRIVE I USED IT FOR HALF AND THEN THE OTHER HALF IT WOULDN'T EVEN TRY TO COME BACK ON. A FEW DAYS LATER IT WORKED AGAIN. *TR
