SERVICE BRAKES
2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO MULTIPLE RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE AND JUST RECEIVED A LETTER ABOUT THE FAULTY VACUUM PUMP FOR THE BRAKING SYSTEM. BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MINE FOR OVER A YEAR, BUT APPARENTLY IT'S ONLY COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER IF IT'S UNDER 72K MILES. EITHER IT'S A MANUFACTURER FAULT OR IT'S NOT. MY BEING OVER 72K MAKES IT 'MY PROBLEM' I SUPPOSE. SAD THEY ARE ALLOWED TO GET AWAY WITH THIS.

BRAKES BECAME HARD TO PUSH AND TRUCK WOULDN'T STOP. IT STARTED OFF WHEN BACKING INTO A PARKING SPOT AND THEN DRIVING FORWARD SLOWLY. THAT WAS LAST FALL. NOW THE BRAKES ARE HARD TO DEPRESS ALL THE TIME, AND SOMETIMES HAVE TO USE BOTH FEET. BROUGHT IT TO MECHANIC SHOP AND IT IS THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE DRIVING DOWNHILL ON A LOCAL HIGHWAY, ANOTHER VEHICLE CHANGED LANE INTO MY LANE WHICH FORCED ME TO BRAKE TO AVOID A COLLISION, BUT BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY STIFF AND REQUIRED MORE FORCE THAN USUAL TO APPLY THE THE BRAKES. FORTUNATELY, I DID NOT HIT THE OTHER VEHICLE AND BUT HAD TO PULL OVER TO A PARKING LOT CHECK ON MY FAMILY WHO WERE SHAKEN UP ABOUT THE ORDEAL. I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE FOR A FEW MINUTES TO SEE IF IT RESETS THE PROBLEM BUT AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND DRIVING IT AROUND THE PARKING LOT A FEW TIMES, THE PROBLEM WAS STILL THERE AND A BRAKE ASSIST SERVICE MESSAGE WAS NOW SHOWING.

SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKES BECAME HARD TO PUSH DOWN AND COULD BARELY STOP. LUCKILY I WAS BACKING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT WORK AND THE SIDEWALK LEDGE STOPPED ME. NOW WHEN I TRY TO STOP THE BRAKES WILL ONLY PUSH DOWN ABOUT AN INCH THEN ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO PUSH DOWN TO STOP. FROM WHAT I READ ONLINE THE PROBLEM IS LIKELY THE VACUUM PUMP.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, STEERING
ON 4/2/2019 WHILE TRAVELING AT 45 MPH, SLOWED TO MAKE LEFT TURN. WHILE MIDWAY THROUGH INTERSECTION, ENGINE DIED, DASH LIGHTS WENT OUT, POWER STEERING AND BRAKES GONE. WITHIN SECONDS EVERYTHING POWERED BACK UP AND ENGINE RESUMED AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. WARNING INDICATORS WORDS FLASHED BRIEFLY. I CAUGHT "STABILITRACK". I DROVE FOR ANOTHER MILE AND AS I WAS ENTERING DRIVEWAY ABOUT 5 MPH AND WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT, ENGINE AND DASH LIGHTS WENT OFF AGAIN AND RESTARTED AGAIN. PRIOR TO ALL THIS HEADLIGHTS WERE FLICKERING AND THERE WAS A LITTLE DEADENING IN THE POWER STEERING. TRUCK HAD 72,950 MILES. I CHECKED THE GROUNDING POINTS AND CLEARED OUT THE DEADENING MATERIAL THAT SLIGHTLY IMPEDED IT. NOT SURE THIS WILL HELP. THIS IS ACTUALLY THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. ON 6/22/18 AT 64,888 MILES, I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM. AT THAT TIME TOOK IT IN TO SHOP. THEY TIGHTENED THE GROUNDING BOLTS (G218) AND CLEANED THE BATTERY TERMINALS. I GUESS IT HELPED UNTIL RECENTLY. IT COST $180.

ENGINE
TRUCK UNDER 52,000 MILES, HAD ALL KNOWN RECALLS (6) PERFORMED AT CLIFF ANSCHUETZ. ALL MAINTENANCE PERFORMED WITHIN MANUFACTURE SPECIFIED GUIDE LINES HERE ALSO. TRUCK NEVER DISPLAYED ERROR CODE OR SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT SINCE PURCHASED NEW. DRIVING HOME FROM WORK 45 MILES AN HOUR MARCH 6, 2019, ENGINE MESSAGE DISPLAYED WITH BEEP TONE: OIL PRESSURE LOW TURN OFF ENGINE. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OFF, LET TRUCK SIT FOR 5 MINUTES. NO OIL OR FLUIDS WHERE LEAKING. OIL APPEARED NORMAL AND AT PROPER LEVEL, DID NOT SMELL BURNED. STARTED ENGINE ERROR CODE WAS GONE, DROVE 1 MILES TO AUTO REPAIR SHOP. SAME ERROR MESSAGE APPEARED AFTER GOING 100'. AUTO REPAIR SHOP GAVE ME BAD NEWS 3 CODES: 1) P0324 KNOCK SENSOR, 2) P0521 ENGINE OIL PRESSURE PERFORMANCE, 3) P06DD ENGINE OIL PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE STUCK OFF. WENT TO FELDMAN CHEVROLET OF HIGHLAND, TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, LAKESIDE TOWING DELIVERED MY TRUCK THERE. FELDMAN WILL NOT COVER REPAIRS STATING OUT OF WARRANTY. WILL GIVE ME $2000 DOLLARS OFF ON CERTI REBUILT MOTOR, MY COST $7,200 W/12 MONTH WARRANTY. NOT ACCEPTABLE. SALESMAN THERE OFFERED ME $8000 AS TRADE IN. WORKING WITH GM COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT, THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN ALL INFORMATION. BEEN NICE BUT SEEMS LIKE I AM CAUGHT IN MIDDLE BETWEEN HER AND SERVICE MANAGER AT FELDMAN. AS OF, 4/30/2019, I AM AWAITING A CALL BACK FROM GM. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT IN THIS ENGINE DESCRIBED IN SO MANY BLOGS! GOOGLE 2014 CHEVY SILVERADO 1500 ENGINE FAILURE. VACUUM PUMP ONLY WARRANTIED TO 36K, 2016-17 TRUCKS ONLY HAVE A 60K POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. TELLS YOU SOMETHING, GM DROPPED POWERTRAIN WARRANTY DOWN TO 60K FOR 2016-17. THIS IS NOT COMMON PROBLEM, ONLY A MATTER OF WHEN THE VACUUM PUMP FAILS. PUMP FAILS, STARTS PUMPING METAL DEBRIS BACK INTO OIL/LUBRICATION SYSTEM TAKING OUT THE OIL PUMP THEN THE ENGINE. I OWE FELDMAN $970 FOR TEAR DOWN AND FOR REMOVING OIL PAN!

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
AC CONDENSER HAS A HOLE WHICH IS CAUSING THE FREON TO LEAK. THIS IS A KNOWN GM ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. DRIVING WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN IS NOT ALWAYS AN OPTION AND AS A RESULT UNSAFE AIR AND HEAT CONDITIONS ARE EXPERIENCED

STEERING
WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING TURNS MADE A REALLY LOUD POPPING NOISE, TOOK TO A MECHANIC AND THE RACK AND PINION ARE COMING APART. DONE RESEARCH AND FOUND BULLETIN 14204B AND IT IS EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY TRUCK BUT THE VIN DOESN'T COME BACK. I HAVE KIDS AND THIS IS NOT ANYTHING TO TAKE LIGHTLY PER THE RECALL AND THE MECHANIC. IF IT IS SAME AS WHAT RECALL IS WHY ISN'T THIS TRUCK INCLUDED???? TOOK TO LOCAL CHVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY EVEN SAID SAME THING.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
VEHICLE HAS SEVERAL ELECTRICAL ISSUES. FIRST, POWER STEERING FAILS AT LOW SPEED TURNS. THEN, THE CAR OCCASIONALLY LOSES ALL ELECTRICAL POWER (SCREENS, GAUGES, LIGHTS, STARTER, GARAGE DOOR OPENER) WHILE PARKED AND OFF. THEN LAST WEEK, IT LOST ALL ELECTRICAL POWER AT 70+ MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. LOST POWER STEERING, ALL SCREENS TURNED OFF, GAUGES WHEN TO ZERO, ETC. THIS LASTED FOR ABOUT 3 SECONDS AND THEN EVERYTHING CAME BACK ON. MANY WARNING LIGHTS INCLUDING POWER STEERING, TRACTION CONTROL, PARKING ASSIST DISABLED. THIS ALSO GAVE A 4WD SERVICE WARNING. NOW, I GET THE SERVICE 4WD WARNING EVERY TIME I START THE VEHICLE AND IT WILL NOT GO INTO 4 WD.

SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKES ENGAGED AND LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING DURING NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS IN JULY 2018.TOWED TO DEALERSHIP & PROBLEM WAS THE BRAKING MODULE. HOWEVER, 6 MONTHS LATER AND THE BRAKES ENGAGED AND LOCK UP AGAIN WHILE DRIVING ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS. TOWED TO DEALERSHIP & THIS TIME THEY DETERMINED THE BOOSTER VALVE CONTROLLING THE BRAKE FLUID WAS THE ISSUE. 2 DAYS LATER, THE BRAKE ASSIST ENGAGED WHILE DRIVING AND THE BRAKES LOCKED UP AGAIN. HAD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE ASSIST BUTTON MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET IT TO RELEASE. THESE INSTANCES ARE OCCURRING WHILE ROAD CONDITIONS ARE BARE & TEMPS ARE ABOVE FREEZING. THIS IS DANGEROUS SINCE BRAKES LOCK UP WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC TRAVELING ANYWHERE FROM 30 MPH TO 50 MPH.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN TRYING TO STOP AT LOW SPEEDS THE BRAKES ACT LIKE LOSS OF POWER BRAKE AND HAVE AT LEAST 5 TIMES ALMOST HIT A CAR IN FRONT OF ME BECAUSE COULDN'T STOP. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL GM DEALER AND HAD IT REPAIRED AND IT WAS THE VACUUM PUMP, AND AFTER FINDING OUT THE PROBLEM I FOUND ON THE WEB THAT THERE IS A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS ON 2014-2018 GM TRUCKS AND WAS ADVISED TO FILE A COMPLAINT BECAUSE IT IS A HUGE PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE RECALLED, ESPECIALLY AFTER IT COST ME OVER $800. I HAVE AROUND 72,000 MILES AND LOOKING ON THE WEB QUITE A FEW HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AS EARLY AS 10,000-30,000 BUT WAS TAKEN CARE OF UNDER WARRANTY AND PROBABLY WEREN'T REPORTED

SERVICE BRAKES
AT LOW SPEEDS, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES HARD/IMPOSSIBLE TO PRESS AND DOES NOT SLOW DOWN THE TRUCK. IT FEELS AS IF I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER STOPPING THE VEHICLE. THIS SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING TO A LOT OF OWNERS OF THESE TRUCKS ACCORDING TO WHAT I AM SEEING WHILE RESEARCHING THE ISSUE.
