PAINT AROUND 3RD BRAKE LT. ON BACK OF CAB IS BUBBLING & STARTING TO CORRODE. THIS IS THE ONLY SPOT ON THE ENTIRE TRUCK WHERE THIS IS HAPPENING, IT IS PLAIN TO SEE THAT IT IS BEING CAUSED BY A DEFECT IN THE SEAL BETWEEN THE BRAKE LT. & THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. I AM NOT SURE WHEN THIS STARTED TO ERODE, BUT IN FEB. 2017 IS WHEN I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE IS WHEN I NOTICED HOW BAD THE PAINT WAS BUBBLING AROUND THE BRAKE LT.. FROM THE LOOKS OF THE DAMAGE & FROM WHAT THE BODY SHOP REPAIR PERSON STATED, THIS HAS BEEN ERODING FOR A MONTHS.

SERVICE BRAKES
THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER ON THE VEHICLE LEAKS BRAKE FLUID PAST THE REAR SEAL INTO THE VACUUM POWER BRAKE BOOSTER. THE FLUID WILL CAUSE THE DIAPHRAGM IN THE BOOSTER TO FAIL. THE ONLY WAY TO CHECK FOR A LEAK IS TO REMOVE THE VACUUM HOSE AND SEE IF IT IS WET OR TO CONTINUE TO ADD BRAKE FLUID UNTIL THE BOOSTER IS FULL OF FLUID AT WHICH A LEAK WILL BECOME VISIBLE.

I'M WRITING ABOUT MY DASHBOARD CRACKING ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. I HAVE A 2010 CHEVY CREW CAB AND I'M ON MY 3RD DASHBOARD FOR THIS TRUCK. I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND ONLY HAVE 50,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK THAT IS IN LIKE NEW CONDITION. THIS IS DEFINITELY AND MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THIS DESIGN OF DASH AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. IMMEDIATELY. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO CHANGE OUT THE DASH AGAIN THIS WEEK BUT IT IS GOING TO COST ME HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR SOMETHING I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR. WHAT IS MY NEXT STEP FROM HERE?

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
I HAVE NOT GOTTEN THE RECALL ON THE AIRBAG FIXED AS OF THIS DATE. DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO FIX FOR IT. AS FOR THE STABILITY CONTROL AND TRACTION CONTROL, I WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK ON A LOCAL STREET WHEN THE REAR WHEELS LOCKED UP. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY DOING ABOUT 30 WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FIGURING IT WAS A RECALL SEEING AS I FEEL IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I WAS CHARGED $654.00 TO REPAIR IT. I AM THANKFUL I WAS ON A LOCAL STREET, I CAN ONLY IMAGING WHAT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED IF I HAD BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE DOING 70. I SEE WHERE MANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM AND I FEEL I WAS CHARGED WHEN THIS IS A SAFTY ISSUE THE CHEVROLET SHOULD REPAIR AT THEIR EXPENSE.

THE DASH CRACKED IN MULTIPLE AREAS AFTER ONLY 3 YEARS. THE CRACKS ARE LOCATED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH AROUND THE AIRBAG HOUSING. IT STARTED WITH THE FRONT LEFT CORNER OF THE AIRBAG THEN LATER WITH THE RIGHT SIDE. THE CRACKS ARE SIGNIFICANT AND PIECES OF THE DASH ARE PROTRUDING UP. I HAVE CONTACTED GM AND THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE DASH SAYING IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I STRONGLY DISAGREE. IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS FRAGMENTS FROM THE DASH COULD BECOME PROJECTILES AND CAUSE SEVERE INJURY.

THE PLASTIC DASH PANEL HAS DEVELOPED CRACKS OVER TIME BUT RECENTLY THE CRACKS HAVE STARTED TO DEVELOP AROUND THE PASSENGERS SIDE FRONT AIR BAG. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE CONTINUED CRACKING AND SUBSEQUENT UNEVEN NATURE OF THE AIR BAG SURROUND COULD CAUSE ISSUES WITH AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT AND OR THAT THE SHARP EDGES OF THE PLASTIC COULD PUNCTURE OR CUT THE AIR BAG ITSELF CAUSING THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGER TO BE COMPROMISED.

AIR BAGS, ENGINE
BOUGHT THE TRUCK IN APRIL, 2016 AND NOW HAVE A CONSTANT KNOCK FROM ENGINE. I WAS TOLD IT IS PROBABLY THE LIFTERS. I DID RESEARCH TO FIND MANY OTHERS HAVING ISSUES WITH LIFTERS ON VEHICLES THAT HAVE THE AFM/DOD WHICH CONTROLS FUEL AND CYLINDER USE WHEN AT STEADY HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I TRAVEL BY HIGHWAY TO AND FROM WORK. I STILL OWE $17,000 ON THIS TRUCK. IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION.
