ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
WHILE DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON WHEN I TURN MY SIGNAL ON TO CHANGE LANES MY CRUISE WILL TURN OFF AND MY DASH LIGHTS FLICKER. WHEN DRIVING AT SLOWER SPEEDS AND TRY TO TURN INTO PARKING SPACES STABIL TRACK WARNING POPS UP AND TRUCK WILL LOSE POWER SHUTTING THE ENGINE COMPLETELY OFF WITHTHE KEY TURNED . THE DOORS WILL LOCK AND UNLOCK DURING THIS TIME AND IT WILL SHOW NEARLY EVERY WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH. IT HAS SHUT OFF AND NOT STARTED BACK UP. IT HAS LEFT ME STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF A PARKING AS WELL AS BUSY HIGHWAY WHEN MAKING A TURN. ALSO THE SERVICE TRAILER BREAK SYSTEM WILL RANDOMLY POP UP ON DASH SCREEN AND IMMEDIATELY CLEAR ITSELF AND KEEP GOING OFF REPEATEDLY BACK TO BACK ANNOYING YOU TO DEATH. THIS TRUCK IS SUPPOSE TO HAVE A HIGH SAFETY RATING FOR I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN AND I DON'T NEED A 5 YEAR OLD TRUCK WITH LESS THAN 100,000 MILES SHUTTING OFF IN MIDDLE OF TURN ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH MY KIDS WITH ME. THE SHUTTING OFF AND THE TRAILER BREAK SYSTEM HAS BEEN STEADILY GETTING WORSE. GM NEEDS TO GET THIS FIXED OR THEY WILL HAVE LEGAL ACTIONS FROM MULTIPLE PEOPLE.

PAINT ON MY 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO IS CHIPPING OR FLAKING OFF FOR REASONS OTHER THAN NATURAL CAUSES. THE VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND HAS ONLY 55,000 MILES ON IT. THE PAINT SHOULD IN NO WAY BE FAILING WITH A VEHICLE THIS NEW AND THIS EXPENSIVE. AS YOU WILL SEE IN THE PHOTOS THE PAINT NOT STICKING IS IN AREAS THAT DO NOT INCUR DAMAGE FROM EVERYDAY DRIVING. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND GM MANUFACTURER AND BOTH HAVE TOLD ME THAT PAINT IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM. WHEN I DO A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH FOR "2014 SILVERADO PAINT," THERE ARE 100S OF FORUMS WITH 1000S OF COMMENTS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. ONE OF THE FIRST PICTURES I CAME TO WHEN I SEARCHED, SHOWED THE SAME VEHICLE WITH PAINT GONE IN THE EXACT SAME SPOTS. AFTER TALKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND MANUFACTURER NUMEROUS TIMES, I FELT THIS WAS ONE OF MY LAST RESORTS. THE MANUFACTURER LAUGHED ME OFF AND SAID NHTSA WOULD PAY NO ATTENTION AS PAINT ISNT A SAFETY CONCERN. SOMEONE HAS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT WITHOUT ME HAVING TO SPEND THOUSANDS TO REPAINT. IT'S A CLEAR MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND THEY SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE BY ALL STANDARDS. THE COST OF THEIR VEHICLES BEING SO HIGH, ALL PARTS SHOULD LAST FOR MORE THAN 55000 MILES, INCLUDING THE PAINT. AGAIN, THIS VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND LOSES PAINT JUST BY DRIVING WITH A BREEZE OUT. ASIDE FROM THE 2 PHOTOS ATTACHED, I'M ALSO LOSING PAINT AROUND THE WINDSHIELD AND LOW ON THE DOOR PANELS.

THIS IS THE WORST PAINT JOB I HAVE EVER HAD ON A VEHICLE. WE BOUGHT THIS TRUCK BRAND NEW FROM PASO ROBLES CHEVROLET ON SEPTEMBER 8, 2014. BY SUMMER OF 2018, THE PAINT HAD STARTED PEELING OFF THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR OF CHEVROLETS. CHEVROLET AND THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO HELP. THIS YEAR I TOOK THE TRUCK IN TO GET THE DOORS PAINTED WHICH COST ME $2,500. WHILE AT THE BODY SHOP, THEY DISCOVERED THREE MORE PLACES THAT THE PAINT IS CHIPPING AND PEELING OFF. I PUT IN ANOTHER CASE WITH CHEVROLET AND THEY DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE.

THE WAX COATING TO PREVENT RUST ON THE TRUCK'S FRAME IS FALLING OFF. THE FRAME HAS A MAJOR RUST PROBLEM; THE TRUCK HAVING A LOW MILEAGE OF 25,801 AT THE TIME I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHEVY CASE #9-559725037 AND #9-5593674272. THE TRUCK WAS EXAMINED AT BALISE CHEVROLET OF SPRINGFIELD MA. PHONE #413-734-6498, FAX #413-734-4421 WHERE THEY TOOK PHOTOS OF THE PROBLEM. BALISE ADVISED ME IT WOULD COST $1200.00 TO FIX THIS RUST PROBLEM. BALISE ASSIGNED A REPAIR ORDER #667705 AND CONTACTED GM. GM ADVISED THE DEALERSHIP THEY WOULD NOT COVER ANY OF THE COSTS, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS KNOWN PROBLEM TO GM IN THE MANUFACTURING OF CHEVY PICK-UP TRUCKS FROM 2014 TO 2018. I DISCOVERED THE FRAME RUST ONLY BY CHANCE WHEN MY TRUCK WAS ON A LIFT FOR A FLAT TIRE REPAIR WHILE AT ANOTHER DEALERSHIP. I LOOKED INTO THE INTERNET AND FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FOR CHEVY TRUCK FRAME RUST, (NHTSA #S P10564D AND P10564H, TSB # 14002A, NHTSA ID # 10067212) AND A MANUFACTURER COMMUNICATION # SB-144002A. IT IS MY BELIEF THE RUST FRAME PROBLEM SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY GM/CHEVY BECAUSE IT IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT KNOWN TO THE COMPANY. GM/CHEVY SHOULD HAVE SENT OUT A RECALL ON THIS HIDDEN DEFECT, LONG BEFORE I DISCOVERED IT BY CHANCE AND MY 3 YEAR WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. PLEASE NOTE THE LOW MILEAGE OF MY TRUCK IS UNDER THE 36,000 MILE WARRANTY.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, STEERING
I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET, AND WHENEVER I WOULD SIGNAL LEFT TO MERGE INTO THE OTHER LANE, THE CRUISE WOULD DISENGAGE. I COULD RESET IT AS USUAL IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS, BUT IT HAD DONE THIS BEFORE, SO I TESTED MULTIPLE TIMES AND RECEIVED THE SAME RESPONSE ALMOST EVERY TIME. THE DASH LIGHTS WOULD FLICKER, AS WELL AS MYLINK WINDOW IN CENTER CONSOLE AREA. IT WOULD ALSO GO NUTS IF I ROLLED UP THE WINDOW AND HOLD A SECOND PAST THE TIME WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY UP. I HAD MULTIPLE LIGHTS WITHIN DASH LIGHT UP, THEN GO OFF (REALLY SCARY). HAPPENED TOO FAST TO TELL WHAT LIGHTS LIT UP. ADDITIONALLY, MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT AS I WAS SLOWLY TURNING INTO DRIVEWAY OF MY FRIEND'S HOUSE. HE EVEN COMMENTED IT LOOKED LIKE I WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE TURN, SO IT WASN'T JUST MY IMAGINATION. THIS EPISODE HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE, ALMOST AS IF THE ENGINE HAD DIED (BUT IT HAD NOT DONE SO). I HAVE READ WHERE THIS WAS A RECALL ON OTHER MODELS OF CHEVY TRUCKS, BUT FOUND NO RECALL INFORMATION ON MY VIN. ALL I KNOW IS THAT IF MY ELECTRONICS AND/OR MY STEERING GO OUT WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND I WRECK, GM WILL HAVE MAJOR LEGAL ISSUES ON THEIR HANDS. I HAVE BEEN A LIFELONG CHEVY OWNER AND ALWAYS KEEP MY VEHICLES IN TIP-TOP SHAPE. THEREFORE, THIS IS A MANUFACTURER'S ISSUE THAT NEEDS RESOLVED BEFORE LIVES ARE LOST.

I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY CHEVY SILVERADO SPEEDOMETER LIGHTS BEGAN TO FLICKER AS WELL AS MY DASH RADIO THAT FLASHED OFF AND CAME RIGHT BACK ON. WHILE THESE OTHER TWO THINGS WERE GOING ON A MESSAGE ON THE DASH APPEARED AS "SERVICE STABILITRAK". ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, I WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY THE SAME SPEED AS MENTIONED BEFORE WITH CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED AND SUDDENLY THE CRUISE CONTROL DEACTIVATED AND THE "SERVICE STABILITRAK" MESSAGE APPEARED ALONG WITH THE "DEACTIVED POWER STEERING", AS WELL AS THE SPEEDOMETER LIGHTS WERE FLICKERING. ALSO IT HAPPENS MOST OFTEN WHEN I SIGNAL WHILE GOING OVER 70MPH, THIS IS USUALLY THE THING THAT COMMENCES ALL OF THE MESSAGES AND FLICKERING OF LIGHTS ALONG WITH WHAT I MENTIONED ABOVE.
