DASHBOARD IS CRACKING AND NON-REPAIRABLE. MY RESEARCH FINDS THAT THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED TO A VAST NUMBER OF 2007-2014 GM VEHICLES, THAT DEALERSHIPS AND GM ARE REFUSING TO FIX THE DASHBOARDS, AND THAT THE DASHBOARDS CONTINUE TO BREAK DOWN, CREATING MORE POTENTIAL FOR HAZARD.

THE DASHBOARD CRACKS ON ITS OWN AS IT EXPANDS OVER TIME WITH HEAT AND WEAR. THE CRACKS OCCUR AROUND THE DRIVER SIDE DASH AND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT, MAKING IT QUESTIONABLE AS TO HOW THE CAR WILL HOLD UP DURING A COLLISION AND WHETHER OR NOT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY PROPERLY.

POWER TRAIN, WHEELS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE A 2015 SUBURBAN WHICH HAD ISSUES FROM DAY WHEN MY SUV CUT OFF AND WOULDN'T START BECAUSE OF A FAULTY BATTERY. IT HAD LESS THAN 100 MILES ON IT. IT HAD NUMEROUS RECALLS, I'M ON MY 3RD SET OF TIRES 275/55/20 CROSS CONTACT ECO WHICH YOU ONLY GET 25000 MILES IF BEST. MY ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM HAD TO BE REPLACE BEFORE I HAD 20000 MILES. THE VIBRATION IS ANNOYING AND I'VE CHANGED MY TIRES AGAIN AND IT'S STILL VIBRANTING. AFTER READING OTHER COMPLAINTS I NOW REALIZE I' WASN'T GOING CRAZY WITH THE DIZZINESS.

POWER TRAIN
AFTER RETURNING FROM A TRIP AND WHEN PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT THE TRANSFER CASE SHIFTED FROM 2 WHEEL DRIVE INTO 4 WHEEL LOW ON ITS OWN. NO ERROR LIGHTS CAME ON. THE INDICATOR LIGHT DID NOT REFLECT THE CHANGE INTO LOW GEAR. THE TYPICAL CLUNK OF THE TRANSFER CASE SHIFTING AND DIFFICULTY TURNING ON DRY PAVEMENT WERE VERY EVIDENT. THE TRANSFER CASE WAS SET TO 2 WHEEL DRIVE, NOT AUTO. AFTER THE CAR SAT IN THE LOT FOR APP. 20 MINUTES, WE BACKED UP AND PULLED FORWARD AND THE TRANSFER CASE SWITCHED BACK INTO 2 WHEEL DRIVE, AGAIN ON ITS OWN. THIS HAPPENED ONE TIME SO FAR.

THE RECIRCULATING AIR SWITCH WILL NOT STAY "ON" THE WAY THE REAR A/C DOES, THE WAY THE CRUISE CONTROL DOES, THE WAY ALMOST EVERY OTHER SWITCH IN THE [XXX] TRUCK DOES. IT GOES OFF EVERY TIME YOU SHUT DOWN AND ALSO OTHER TIMES. IT IS LOCATED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WITH A ITSY-BITSY IDIOT LIGHT THAT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE ESP. ON SUNNY DAYS SOOOOO OUT OF SIGHT=OUT OF MIND= ALWAYS BEING FORGOTTEN TO TURN BACK ON=ALWAYS BREATHING CANCER CAUSING DIESEL FUMES. THIS CLIMATE CONTROL IS THE WORLD'S WORST. THIS IS MY 8TH SUBURBAN & FIRST TIME FOR THIS. I HAVE ASKED THE DEALER & GM TO RESTORE. NO! *****IT IS VERY UNHEALTHY***** PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. THANKS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
EMERGENCY BRAKE PEDAL IS THE PROBLEM. IT IS MOUNTED TOOOOO HIGH, CLOSE TO THE BOTTOM OF DASH- BOARD AND TOOOO FAR TO THE LEFT. IT MAKES IT VERY, VERY DIFFICULT TO GET THE PROPER LEVERAGE TO APPLY, ESPECIALLY IF WEARING BOOTS OR WORK SHOES. WHEN I ENGAGED IT THAT TIME MY ANKLE "POPPED". AT FIRST, THE LOUD NOISE CAUSED ME TO THINK IT CRACKED. IT TURNED OUT THAT THE PERONEAL TENDON HAD SLIPPED OUT OF IT'S ANKLE GROOVE & THE SUPPORTING LIGAMENT WAS NOW STRETCHED & UNABLE TO PROPERLY SUPPORT THE TENDONS & ANKLE. I'VE BEEN GETTING TREATMENT SINCE THEN & IT STILL IS NOT COMPLETELY HEALED. IT HAS LIMITED MY ABILITY TO WORK, EXERCISE, ETC. ALL BECAUSE OF THE STUPID PLACEMENT OF AN EB PEDAL. I NO LONGER USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. PS: YOUR SITE WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO ENTER THAT I WAS INJURED & REQUIRED MEDICAL TREATMENT<<<<<<<<

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH MY 2014 SUBURBAN Z-71 4X4, FIRST OCCURRING AT 2735 MILES, AND AGAIN AT 19,367, 19,420, AND 20,435 MILES. WHILE DRIVING AT OR ABOVE 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE HAS EXHIBITED THE FOLLOWING SYMPTOMS: LOSS OF POWER WHILE THE "CHECK ENGINE," "STABILTRAK" AND "TRACTION CONTROL" WARNING LIGHTS APPEAR. THE VEHICLE INFORMATION CENTER READS "TRACTION CONTROL: OFF / STABILTRAK: OFF" FOLLOWED BY "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" AND "SERVICE STABILTRAK." THE READOUT THEN SHOWS "ENGINE POWER REDUCED." THE VEHICLE WILL NOT MAINTAIN HIGHWAY SPEEDS, AND REQUIRES FLOORING THE ACCELERATOR AND OR SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION INTO "MANUAL" MODE IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN A SAFE HIGHWAY SPEED. RPMS EXCEED 3500 UNLESS USING MANUAL TRANSMISSION FUNCTION. AFTER RE-STARTING THE VEHICLE, SOME OR ALL WARNING LIGHTS EVENTUALLY DISAPPEAR, AND THE VEHICLE APPEARS TO RETURN TO NORMAL. WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT, THE VEHICLE WAS IN SERVICE FOR FOUR AND A HALF DAYS, AND WAS RETURNED WITH THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS:"...LOOKED INTO SI AND FOUND A PIP SAYING WIGGLE WIRES AT DIFFERENT SPOTS. WIGGLED WIRES AND DROVE NO PROBLEMS DROVE WELL [SIC]. NO CEL ON." THE TECH DROVE THE VEHICLE FOR 30 MILES AND HAD NO PROBLEMS. A COMMENT ON MY INVOICE STATED "HAD PI STATING THAT TECH WOULD PROBABLY NOT BE ABLE TO DUPLICATE CONCERN - CHECKED CONNECTORS AS PER ML." INITIAL RESPONSE FROM SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON CURRENT PROBLEM SET IS THAT THEY PLAN TO REPLACE PARTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ACCELERATOR. *TR

VISIBILITY/WIPER, SEATS
NO ACCIDENT; HOWEVER, I AM 6'4" AND WHEN I AM IN THE DRIVERS SEAT I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH SEAT ALL THE WAY BACK. WITH THE MIRROR FULLY OUT TO VIEW CARS ON THE LEFT I HAVE TO MOVE MY HEAD OVER TO THE RIGHT TO GET A SAFE VIEW OF THE LANE AND PASSING CARS. ALSO I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM VIEWING BEHIND ME BECAUSE THE MIRROR WILL NOT GO HIGH ENOUGH TO SEE OVER A HUNDRED FEET OR SO. I HAVE TO BEND MY HEAD DOWN TO SEE IN THE DISTANT. CHEVROLET WAS NOTIFIED 2 TIMES AND I TALKED TO THEM BUT THEY ARE UNWILLING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. ONLY TO SAY THAT IS THE WAY THE VEHICLE IS DESIGNED. AN EQUIVALENT 1/2 PICKUP, SAME YEAR, DOES NOT HAVE THAT PROBLEM. ALL 2014 SUBURBANS THAT THE DEALER AND I TESTED AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WERE THE SAME AS MINE. I FEEL THE IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF RESTRICTED VISIBILITY. IT IS DIFFICULT IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE IT ADDS ANOTHER ISSUE I HAVE TO DEAL WITH THAT IS ABNORMAL. *TR
