SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
AFTER MY RECALL WAS FIXED MY TRUCK LOCKED INTO 4 WHEEL DRIVE AND I LOST CONTROL OF ALL MY SAFETY FEATURES. MY LIGHTS WOULD NOT WORK. THEY FIXED WHAT THEY SAID WAS A GLITCH IN THE RECALL AND 3 WEEKS LATER MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND MY BRAKE SYSTEM STARTED TO SHOW LIGHTS. THEY RECALIBRATED THE BRAKE SYSTEM RECALL AGAIN.

FOUR DAYS AFTER HAVING A RECALL PERFORMED I WAS GETTING AN ERROR FOR MY ECS AND ABS BEING DISABLED. THE TRUCK LOST ALMOST COMPLETE CONTROL OF BRAKING. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE REPROGRAMMED AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED A WEEK LATER. BOTH TIMES THIS HAPPENED WHEN THE TRUCK WAS FIRST STARTED.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE YUKON A/C ISSUE HAPPENED TO ME. WHAT WOULD IT TAKE TO MAKE SURE THE SIERRA HAS THE SAME RECALL AS THE YUKON? "YUKON AND YUKON XL VEHICLES, MAY HAVE A CONDITION WHERE THERMAL CYCLING ON THE COMBINATION TRANSMISSION FLUID/OIL AND AC CONDENSER COOLER CREATES A CRACK THAT MAY ALLOW REFRIGERANT TO ESCAPE. THIS CONDITION CONSEQUENTLY MAY DEACTIVATE THE AC SYSTEM WHICH MAY CAUSE POTENTIAL CUSTOMER ANNOYANCE."

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE AND TAKING OFF AFTER REMOTELY STARTING IT, MULTIPLE WARNINGS POPPED UP ON THE TRUCKS DIC. THEY WERE, SYSTEM BRAKE FAILURE, TRAILER BRAKE FAILURE, ESC FAILURE, DO NOT EXCEED 65MPH WARNING. AFTER SEEING THOSE I APPLIED THE BRAKE TO STOP AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR LEAVING THE TRUCK WITHOUT ANY TYPE OF BRAKING POWER WHAT SO EVER. AFTER COASTING TO A STOP I SHUT THE TRUCK OFF RESTARTED IT AND THE CHECK ENGINE ICON WAS ON. THE BRAKES DID WORK AFTER THE TRUCK WAS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED.

SERVICE BRAKES
AFTER HAVING A RECALL ISSUE FIXED ON THE ABS BRAKING SYSTEM OF MY TRUCK, I REMOTED STARTED IT FROM GM'S ONSTAR APP, WHICH CAUSED THE DASHBOARD TO LIGHT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE AND GIVE A NUMBER OF ERRORS, INCLUDING A SOLID ENGINE LIGHT. GM ONSTAR DIAGNOSIS IDENTIFIED THAT THERE IS NOW ANOTHER ISSUE IN THE ABS BRAKING SYSTEM. THERE HAS BEEN NO MECHANICAL FAILURE AT THIS POINT, BUT I AM CONCERNED THEIR MAYBE AS OTHERS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE HAVE SEEN MECHANICAL FAILURE.

OCTOBER 2019 WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE BREAKS WORKED ON GIVEN RECENT RECALL ABOUT THE MECHANICAL VACUUM PUMP OUTPUT MAY DECREASE OVER TIME, DECREASING THE AMOUNT OF VACUUM/POWER BRAKE ASSIST. HOWEVER, SHORTLY AFTER GETTING THE RECALL DONE ON MY TRUCK (1 WEEK LATER) I WAS IN THE PARKING LOT BACKING UP OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT AND THE BREAK PEDAL BECAME REALLY STIFF AND I COULDN'T PUSH HARD ENOUGH TO STOP THE VEHICLE FROM MOVING. I JUST KEPT ROLLING UNTIL I HIT THE CURB. SO FAR THIS HAS HAPPENED A DOZEN TIMES AND ALL WHEN I WAS MOVING ABOUT 5 MILES AN HOUR THE EXACT SAME WAY, PEDAL BECOMES STIFF AND I COULDN'T STOP THE TRUCK FROM MOVING. I FEEL LIKE THINGS ARE WORSE NOW AFTER GETTING THE RECALL DONE. THIS WAS NEVER AN ISSUE BEFORE AND AS I LOOK AT THE RECALL NOTICE, IT STATE INCOMPLETE, TELLING ME POSSIBLY THE MANUFACTURE KNOWS THERE'S STILL AN ISSUE BUT NO FIX HAS BEEN DONE YET, EVEN AFTER 4 MONTHS.
