ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, STEERING
WHILE DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED, MY VEHICLE HAS COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. AFTER PUTTING THE TRUCK IN PARK AND RESTARTING, IT DROVE FINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES NOW. ONCE I PULLED INTO OUR DRIVEWAY AND WHILE WAITING FOR THE GARAGE DOOR TO OPEN, IT SHUT OFF MOMENTARILY AND THEN RESTARTED ON ITS OWN. NOW IT IS SHUTTING OFF AND NOT RESTARTING. THE POWER STEERING IS ALSO GONE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS AT INTERSECTIONS. WE'VE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY SAID THEY WEREN'T AWARE OF ANY ISSUES. THIS STARTED OCCURRING AROUND 85,000 MILES. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
I PULLED INTO A DRIVE THRU TRAVELING STRAIGHT AHEAD. WHEN I TRIED TO BRAKE I HEARD AN ODD CLICKING NOISE AND HAD A VERY HARD BRAKE PEDAL. THE NOISE I FOUND OUT LATER WAS THE ABS SYSTEM DOING IT'S JOB BECAUSE OF MY HARD BRAKING. I DID GET THE VEHICLE STOPPED BEFORE HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE HARD BRAKE CONTINUED AS I MOVED THROUGH THE DRIVE THRU LINE. ONCE I PULLED OUT ON TO THE ROAD THE AND TRIED THE BRAKES AGAIN THEY APPEARED TO WORK PROPERLY. I PULLED INTO AN OPEN LOT AND TRIED THE BRAKES MULTIPLE TIMES AT LOW SPEED AND THE HARD BRAKE CONDITION CONTINUED. MY VEHICLE JUST TURNED OVER 70,000 MILES AND HAD THE RECALL N192268490 TO RECALIBRATE THE BRAKE CONTROL MODULE FOR HARD BRAKING ON 3/4/2020. IT'S APPARENT THAT THE FIX GM IS DOING FOR THE HARD BRAKE PEDAL AND STOPPING IS NOT RESOLVING THE ISSUE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND IF I HAD BEEN CARRYING ANY WEIGHT OR A TRAILER WITH MY TRUCK I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP. I AM GOING TO BE REPLACING THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP WHICH I BELIEVE WILL FIX THE ISSUE. *TR

STEERING
RECENTLY I HAVE NOTICED SOME STIFFNESS IN MY STEERING. IT'S ONLY TEMPORARILY WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKS ON ME BUT REGAINS CONTROL IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN MAKING A TURN COMING OUT OF A PARKING ZONE OR TURNING FROM A STOP. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THIS BECAUSE I WOULDN'T WANT THIS HAPPENING AT HIGH SPEEDS OR FREEWAY. ALONG WITH THE STEERING ISSUE I NOTICED MY RADIO WILL NOT COME ON WHEN I TURN MY TRUCK ON I HAVE TO TURN TRUCK OFF A COUPLE TIMES AND BACK ON AND IT'LL COME ON. NOT SURE IF THIS IS RELATED OR IF IT'S JUST COINCIDENCE BUT BOTH ISSUES BEGAN AROUND THE SAME TIME. *TR

2014 CHEVY SILVERADO LTZ 157479 MILES JUST DRIVE SHORT DISTANCES BUT MY TRUCK HAS SLIPPED GEARS, DELAYS CHANGING GEARS AND NONE RESPONDING SHIFT WHEN IN COMPLETE STOP. WHEN DRIVING UPHILL TRUCK SHIFT FROM SECOND GEAR TO FOURTH GEAR NOT GOING BACK TO ANY OTHER GEAR FORCING ME TO STOP COMPLETE TO START ALL OVER AND HOPEFULLY MAKING THE HILL BUT USUALLY DON?T WORK. I BROUGHT THIS ISSUE TO GM DEALERSHIP AND THEY GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND AND NOW THE ONLY THING THEY CAN DO IS GIVE $200 OFF FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION GIVING ME THE REST TO PAYOFF A ISSUE THAT HAS IN MOST OF THIS TRUCK. IS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND IT LOOKS THAT GM GOT AWAY WITH ALL THIS ENGINEERING ISSUE LEAVING PEOPLE LIKE ME WITH THE PROBLEM AND ON TOP MAKE MORE PROFIT ON THEIR OWN MISTAKES. SO PLEASE HELP ME AND OTHERS TO MAKE SURE GM FIX OUR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE ON CITY STREET, GOING STRAIGHT OR TURNING, VOLTAGE WILL GO DOWN AND RESULT IN THE TRUCK CUTTING OUT (RADIO) LIGHTS FLICKER (HEADLIGHTS AND DASH LIGHTS) AND SERVICE STABITRAK WILL COME ON DASH THEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL COME ON. WITH FINAL RESULT OF HAVING SURGES OF POWER STEERING WITH VOLTAGE DROPS. RESULTING IN ALMOST A HEAD ON COLLISION. PULLED OVER AND SHUT THE TRUCK OFF FOR A MINUTE THEN IT WILL BE FINE. TOOK TO LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP, THEY 'VISUALLY CHECKED' ALL ENGINE GROUNDS, BATTERY TERMINALS, STARTER WIRE, ALTERNATOR WIRE, AND POWER STEERING WIRES. EVERYTHING CHECKED OUT GOOD. IT DID THROW 13 DTC'S RELATED TO LOW VOLTAGE. HAVEN'T HAD A PROBLEM IN 7,000 MILES AND NOW IT IS STARTING AGAIN. I AM UNCERTAIN OF THE FAULTY ISSUE, AND SO IS MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. BUT, THEY WANNA 'TRY' ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT THINGS AT MY EXPENSE, WHICH I THINK IS WRONG. THERE ARE RECALLS FOR THE SAME YEAR OF TRUCK WITH THE SAME ISSUES.

SERVICE BRAKES
MY VEHICLE WAS SERVICED ON APRIL 14, 2020 FOR AN OIL CHANGE, TIRE ROTATION, ETC. AND THE WORK WAS ALSO PERFORMED FOR RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V645000. I HAD NO ISSUES WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM PRIOR TO THIS DATE - NO INCREASED PRESSURE, NO WARNING LIGHTS, NOTHING. AFTER THIS DATE I NOTICED MY BRAKES SKIPPING WHILE IN REVERSE ON AN INCLINE. I LIVE AT THE TOP OF A HILL AND MY DRIVEWAY IS ALSO A HILL, SO I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT. HOWEVER, I WAS REVERSING OUT OF A SLIGHTLY INCLINED PARKING SPOT AT A LOCAL RESTAURANT AND PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOORBOARD AND THE TRUCK WAS STILL NOT STOPPING. I MANAGED TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND GET THE CAR INTO DRIVE TO AVOID HITTING A CAR BEHIND ME IN THE PARKING LOT. LATER THAT SAME DAY I WHEN REVERSING OUT OF ANOTHER SLIGHTLY INCLINED PARKING SPOT HAD TO FULLY USE MY EMERGENCY BRAKE TO BRAKE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I COULD NOT PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL AT ALL DUE TO SO MUCH PRESSURE. I TOOK MY TRUCK IMMEDIATELY TO THE LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT GET TO IT THAT DAY, BUT THAT I COULD DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND BRING IT BACK FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. I REFUSED TO DRIVE MY TRUCK OFF THEIR LOT AND AM APPALLED THAT IT WOULD EVEN BE SUGGESTED AFTER HEARING THAT THE BRAKES MAY OR MAY NOT WORK. I CALLED THE NEXT DAY AT LUNCH TIME AFTER I HAD NOT HEARD ANYTHING AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A SHORT IN THE BRAKE PUMP AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED, BUT THE PART IS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER. I WAS AGAIN TOLD I COULD COME GET MY TRUCK AND DRIVE IT UNTIL THE PART CAME IN (BECAUSE I TOLD THEM I WASN'T PAYING FOR THEIR LOANER CAR I'M CURRENTLY DRIVING THAT THEY WILL TRY TO CHARGE ME FOR). I TOLD THE MAN IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HE'S CRAZY IF HE THINKS I'M GOING TO COME GET A TRUCK WHERE THE BRAKES MAY NOT WORK. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD CAUSE VEHICLE DAMAGE IF NOT ADDRESSED. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
THE VACUUM PUMP HAD A COMPLETE FAILURE, PRODUCING NO VACUUM PRESSURE TO THE BREAK ASSIST. THE RECALL SUGGESTING THE RECALIBRATION OF THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL HAD BEEN COMPLETED MONTHS PRIOR. THIS RESULTED IN SIMILAR SYMPTOMS, VIBRATION IN THE BREAK AND A HARD BRAKE PEDAL. ONCE IT COMPLETELY FAILED, THE PEDAL BECAME EXTREMELY STIFF AND STOPPING WAS VERY DIFFICULT. INITIALLY, THE PEDAL VIBRATION WAS NOTICED AT SLOWER SPEEDS. WHEN THE PUMP FAILED, THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON AN OFF RAMP COMING UP TO A STOP SIGN. IT TOOK ALMOST STANDING ON THE BREAK PEDAL TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 72,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING 73 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE I WOULD NOTICE THAT THE DASH LIGHT WILL FLICKER AND THE TOUCHSCREEN AS WELL. AS I GOT TO 78 MPH THE ELECTRONICS BLACKOUT, STEERING WHEEL TIGHTEN UP FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS THEN EVERYTHING CAME BACK ON.AS I DECIDED TO DECELERATE WITHOUT THE BRAKE TO GET OFF ON THE NEXT EXIT I HIT MY RIGHT SIGNAL LIGHT AND THE ELECTRONICS FLICKED OFF AND ON AGAIN AND MAINTENANCE STABILITIRAK SHOWED UP. WHEN I GOT TO A STOP I CUT THE TRUCK OFF AN BACK ON EVERYTHING WAS BACK TO NORMAL. 30 MILES DOWN THE ROAD THE DASH LIGHTS WAS FLICKERING AGAIN. I KEPT THE TRUCK STEADY AT 73 UNTIL I GOT HOME. UPON BACKING INTO MY DRIVEWAY THE TRUCK SHUTS OFF. WHEN I CRANKED THE TRUCK A MESSAGE READ ROLL THE WINDOW DOWN AND UP. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT HAPPENS RANDOMLY. IT WILL BE FINE FOR 6-8 MONTHS THEN IT WILL ACT UP. IT STARTS WHEN I BRAKE THE LIGHTS WILL DIM. THE STABILTACK LIGHT WILL FLASH OFF AND ON. WHILE STILL IN MOTION. THE TRUCK WILL LOSE POWER AND THE BRAKES AND STEERING WILL LOCK UP. USUALLY WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR TURNING SLOW. IT'S HAPPENED AT STOP LIGHTS, PARKING LOTS AND A PARKING GARAGE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS. I HAVE NO CONTROL AT THIS POINT. I'VE ALSO EXPERIENCED THE TRUCK NOT CRANKING BUT AFTER IT SITS FOR A WHILE IT WILL CRANK LIKE NOTHING WAS EVER WRONG WITH IT. INTERIOR LIGHTS AND DOOR LOCKS COME OFF AND ON. I'VE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND IT SEEMS A LOT OF PPL HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS. WHAT EVERYONE IS SAYING IS THAT IT IS THE G218 GROUND ISSUE. I'VE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ACT LIKE THEY HAVEN'T HEARD OF THE PROBLEM. EVERY TIME I'VE TOOK IT THEY CHARGE ME A FORTUNE AND TELL ME TO PUT A NEW BATTERY IN IT. I HOPE THIS GET INVESTIGATED BECAUSE IT'S A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE AND SOMEONE WILL BE HURT. I AM ACTUALLY SCARED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. THANK YOU.

THE AC CONDENSER IN THIS TRUCK FAILED RIGHT AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ENDED, LIKE IN MANY OTHER GM TRUCKS IN THE YEARS 2014-17. WITH VERY LITTLE RESEARCH IT IS KNOWN TO BE A POORLY WELDED AC CONDENSER WHICH DESTINE TO FAIL. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TO BE A RECALL FOR THESE TRUCKS AND OTHER VEHICLES LOSING AC. WITHOUT PROPER FUNCTIONING AC, I CAN NOT FILTER AIR COMING IN THE VEHICLE WHICH IS A NECESSITY TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE. I CAN'T FILTER OUT FIRE SMOKE WHICH IS ABUNDANT IN CA EVERY FIRE SEASON, VEHICLE WINDOWS MUST BE UP AND N95 MASKS ARE REQUIRED WHEN EXPOSED TO THE SMOKE. I CAN'T FILTER OUT CORONA VIRUS, WHICH IS THE NEW NORMAL, MASKS ARE REQUIRED TO BE WARN AT ALL TIMES OUTSIDE. I CAN'T FILTER OUT ANYTHING IN THE AIR THAT REQUIRES ME TO ROLL UP THE WINDOWS; SMOG, EXHAUST FORM A CLOSE VEHICLE, ETC... WHEN IT IS HOT OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE BECOMES DEATH TRAP, THE TEMPERATURE GETS TO UNSAFE LEVELS AND THE OPERATOR HAS NOT CHOICE BUT TO EXPOSE THE PASSENGER TO THE ELEMENTS WHICH THESE DAYS IS A HEALTH AND SAFETY ISSUE, AND IT IS ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE. AC IS NOT A LUXURY ANYMORE, FILTERING TEMPERATURE APPROPRIATE AIR IS A NECESSITY, AND REQUIRED FOR SAFE HANDLING OF THE VEHICLE.
