POWER TRAIN
Transmission failure. At 140,000 miles, metal flakes in the pan. This could cause an accident and I've done some research and found multiple people with this same issue between 2012 and 2016. Also, a transmission shouldn't be needing to change at this amount of miles. Also, I bought this vehicle used with this problem.

STRUCTURE:BODY
Chassis framework has corrosion including perforation of major frame parts near rear wheels and under the fuel tank. Vehicle has only 70,000 miles and has been well taken care of including regular winter weather washings with underbody wash package. This is a known problem and should have been addressed similar to Toyota truck frame problems. Now I have a like-new appearing vehicle which has been well maintained however the chassis frame is now unsafe and in need of repair. This problem should be addressed up to and including frame replacement.

SUSPENSION
My truck is a 2014 with only 53,000 miles on it. I bought it used in 2016. (it was still under factory warranty) When I tried to get my truck inspected last month the shop told me the frame had holes and cracks in it, was not safe to drive and needed repaired/replaced. I did some research and found SB 19-NA-255 regarding my truck. This issue seems to be a wide spread issue with that truck. I took it to the Chevrolet dealer I bought the truck from (WOOD Chevrolet in Carroltown, PA) to ask about the bulletin. They called their GM rep and he told them there was nothing they (GM or the dealer) could do about it. This is a known safety issue and I believe GM should take care of the repairs. Right now I had a vehicle that is not safe to drive, has very low miles and is not safe to drive.

SEAT BELTS
The cable that attaches the driver seat belt to the base of the seat broke while I was sitting in the vehicle driving. Truck has been well cared for and this seems like a major safety issue since the seatbelt has been ineffective for who knows how long at this point. Online recall tool indicates I have 0 open recalls too. Thank you!

The frame on my truck is completely rusted out. There isn't a spot of rust anywhere else on my truck. I know there is knowledge of a wax coating problem. Why isn't this being fixed? I called GM corporate office and no one could tell me anything. They acted like they had no idea what was going on. I also tried my local dealership.... I left a message over a week ago and no one has called me back. What is going to be done about this issue?? I know others that have the same issue and no one is telling us anything.

STRUCTURE:BODY
Significant corrosion / rust on frame that compromises vehicle safety by weakening the frame. An independent service provider identified large rust hole in frame and multiple areas of significant corrosion. Vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer however there are service bulletins for this year, make, and model to correct the manufacturer-identified failed corrosion/rust prevention coating system for this year, make, and model. Specifically General Motors Service Bulletin 19-NA-255. Holes affecting integrity of frame were first discovered in December 2023; subsequent holes and areas of significant corrosions (ie, soft spots) in the structural frame have been identified.

STEERING, STRUCTURE:BODY, SERVICE BRAKES
I was merging on to the expressway and my truck kept going to the left into traffic towards a concrete median. I turned my wheel to the right to try to avoid it and started to spin out and went back to the right side of the expressway which was four lanes wide and slammed into the guardrail. After the wreck I noticed my ABS light was on I’m not sure if it came on as I was merging onto the expressway.

Electronic power steering assist malfunction and failure. The power steering went out as i was driving with my girlfriend in the truck and it has been stuck on the side of the road in ocean city new jersey. The problem was confirmed by millevois auto repair in ocean city. There was no warning.
