UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE TRUCK WAS PARKED (ENGINE WAS NOT RUNNING AT ALL), I USED THE KEY FAB REMOTE TO UNLOCK THE TRUCK AND THEN OPEN THE TAILGATE. AT THIS TIME, THE TAILGATE SLAMMED OPEN (VERY FORCEFULLY AND QUICKLY) AND HIT MY SON IN THE CHEST. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHILE THE TRUCK WAS RUNNING AND IN PARK. AT THAT TIME, I (THE DRIVER) PUSHED THE BUTTON ON THE CENTER DASH TO OPEN THE TAILGATE SO THAT MY YOUNG SON COULD PUT HIS BASEBALL GEAR IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK. AGAIN, THE TAILGATE OPENED VERY QUICKLY AND ABRUPTLY, SLAMMED OPEN, AND THE HEAVY TAILGATE HIT HIM IN HIS BODY. THE TAILGATE IS SUPPOSED TO OPEN SLOWLY AND GRADUALLY, NOT SLAM OPEN. THANKFULLY, MY SON WAS NOT SERIOUSLY INJURED. THE REMOTE CONTROL, SLOW OPENING TAILGATE WAS ONE OF THE SELLING FEATURES OF THE TRUCK, AND NOW THE TAILGATE IS DANGEROUS TO USE AT ALL, ESPECIALLY WHEN CHILDREN ARE AROUND.

SEAT BELTS
GMC, I AM EMAILING YOU IN REGARDS TO SAFETY FEATURES OF OUR 2015 GMC SIERRA DENALI NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE REAR SEAT BELTS DO NOT LOCK AND THEY DO NOT RETRACT WITHOUT ASSISTANCE. WE ASKED THE DEALERSHIP LOCALLY IF IT IS RECALL RELATED ISSUE AND THEY SAID WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THEM FIXED. THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH A SAFETY FEATURE AND IT SHOULD BE REPLACED/FIXED AT YOUR EXPENSE. WE HAVE FAMILY FRIENDS WHO WERE INVOLVED IN A COLLISION ON I70 WITH A BEAR, IN A GMC OR CHEVY AND THEIR LITTLE BOY ALMOST DIED BECAUSE HIS SEAT BELT FAULTED TO LOCK AND KEEP HIM SAFE. SINCE KNOWING THAT WAS A HUGE ISSUE, IT IS IMPORTANT TO US TO PURSUE GETTING THIS FIXED. IT HAS BEEN LIKE THIS SINCE WE BOUGHT THIS TRUCK IN 2016. WE LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING BACK FROM YOU REGARDING THIS MATTER.

AIR BAGS
TRUCK HAS 56000 MILES. HAD TO SERVICE AIRBAGS A FEW YEARS AGO.. BIG BUCKS. NOW HAVE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT ON FOR 2ND TIME. I REPLACED BOTH IMPACT SENSORS BUT THAT DID NOT FIX PROBLEM. IT SEEMS THAT OTHER SIERRA OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR AIRBAG PROBLEMS. I'M WONDERING IF IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE AND IF THIS IS A DEFECT THAT GM IS IGNORING.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS ARE DOWN RIGHT DANGEROUS AT NIGHTTIME TO THE POINT IT'S NOT EVEN SAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT SEE WHERE YOUR GOING,ESPECIALLY ON HILLY TERRAIN AND CURVY WINDING ROADS. THE TIME YOU REACT YOU WILL BE OFF THE ROAD RESULTING IN A CRASH, BRINGING INJURY OR DEATH TO ONESELF OR ANOTHER OCCUPANT ON THE ROADWAY. LIGHTS OR WAY TO WEAK AND NOT LOCATED IN THE RIGHT SPOT ON TRUCK MAKING HALF YOUR VIEW IN COMPLETE DARKNESS WHEN GOING UP AND DOWN ON HILLY TERRAIN. FOR THE LIFE OF ME CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED YET. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE IN THE DAY AND AGE WE LIFE IN. PLEASE GET THIS RECALLED AND SAFE PEOPLE'S LIFE. ACCIDENTS MAY HAPPEN AND SOMEONE MIGHT GO OFF THE ROAD AND GET KILLED AND NO ONE WILL KNOW WHY THEY WENT OFF THE ROADWAY JUST THINKING MAYBE THEY FEEL ASLEEP AND THE REAL RESULT WAS IMPROPER HEAD LIGHTING AND LACK OF VISION TO STAY ON THE ROADWAY. PLEASE HELP GET THIS ON THE RECALL LIST AND IT'S NOT EVEN A EXPENSIVE FIX. HELP SAFE LIFES! THANK YOU
