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.

I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ROMAIN GMC IN EVANSVILLE, IN AND THEY STATED THAT GM SAYS THIS IS HOW THE TRANSMISSION NORMALLY OPERATES.

I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH THAT IT WASN'T JUST DEGRADED BRAKING, IT WAS ALMOST NOTHING AT ALL. IT TOOK NEARLY 1/8TH OF A MILE TO GET IT STOPPED ON A MILD DOWNHILL GRADE.

THEY FELT VERY HARD TO PUMP AND WERE NOT SLOWING THE TRUCK DOWN. LIGHTS CAME ON SAYING SERVICE BRAKES ETC. AS I COASTED TO TRY TO SLOW DOWN OFF SIDE OF ROAD. I HAD TO KEEP PUMPING THE BRAKES DOWN TO FLOORBOARD AND I?M NOT SURE THEY WERE EVEN WORKING.

I HAVE HAD THE 2019 SIERRA 1500 AT4 WITH 6.2 LITER ENGINE IN THE SHOP (8) TIMES SINCE PURCHASING IT IN LATE AUG 2019 FOR MULTIPLE ISSUES, INCLUDING THE ISSUES RELATING TO THE BRAKE SOFTWARE RECALL. THIS RESULTED IN ME ROLLING THROUGH A STOP SIGN WITHOUT ANY BRAKES. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. AS AN ENGINEER, I HAVE NO CONFIDENCE THAT THE ISSUE HAS BEEN FIXED LONG TERM BY GM. MY FAMILY WILL NO LONGER RIDE IN THE TRUCK WITH ME. AS A RESULT, I HAVE RETAINED AN ATTORNEY FOR THE PURPOSE OF FILING SUIT AGAINST GM FOR SELLING ME AN UNSAFE LEMON. EVEN FURTHER CONCERNING IS THE FACT THAT ON (2) OCCASIONS THE PARKING BRAKE HAS ENGAGED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 55 MPH. ONE TIME WHILE IN 4WD IN SNOW, AND THE OTHER TIME WHILE IN 2WD ON DRY PAVEMENT. THE FIRST TIME THERE WAS A DIAGNOSTIC CODE ASSOCIATED WITH THE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGING RANDOMLY. THE SECOND TIME, THERE WAS NO DIAGNOSTIC CODE PRESENT. THE FIRST ISSUE WITH BRAKING BEGAN 11/14/2019, AND THE MOST RECENT ISSUE OCCURRED ON 2/2/2020 EVEN AFTER ALL RECALL "FIXES" HAVE BEEN APPLIED. *JS

THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE ONCE THIS WINTER IT HAPPENED AND THE REAL WHEELS SPUN AND THE BACK END SLID OUT ON THE ICE AND THE NOSE OF MY TRUCK WOUND UP IN THE ONCOMING LANE OF TRAFFIC. DEALER AND GMC SAY THAT A 'HARD SHIFT' IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THE TRUCK IS 'WORKING AS DESIGNED' AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO FURTHER. I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP 3X ALREADY. I HAVE READ FORUMS SPEAKING OF MANY PEOPLE HAVING SIMILAR ISSUE WITH 2019 GMC TRUCKS AND NO FIX FROM GMC. THIS IS NOT NORMAL, SAFE AND I'M SURE NO ENGINEER DESIGNED THIS TRANSMISSION TO WORK THIS WAY.
