STEERING
We have been told that the recall #17V414 has been completed on our vehicle. However, we have only owned this pickup a little over a year and now the power steering has gone out again. it is throwing a code U0131 which says it is lost communication with power steering control module. We have been told that the power steering module needs to be replaced. I would like to delve into how many people have had to replace this (which is a very EXPENSIVE repair). I truly feel this is still a defect and GMC should own this problem. Thank you for your time.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY PICK-UP ARE ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE AND DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH. I HAVE EVEN GONE TO THE EXPENSE OF HAVING BRAND NEW ONES INTALLED AND THEY ARE NO DIFFERENT IN THE LIGHTING. I CAN BARELY SEE ONE CAR LENGTH AHEAD OF ME WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT, WHICH IS PROHIBITING ME FROM USING MY PICK-UP FOR NIGHT TIME DRIVING. THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO HAVE SPENT SUCH A LARGE SUM OF MONEY FOR A VEHICLE AND NOT BE ABLE TO SEE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THERE SHOULD BE A MANDATORY RECALL OF THIS VEHICLE AND THE HEADLIGHT SYSTEM.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
While fixing an exhaust leak on this vehicle, the grounding cable that attaches to the engine block appeared to be chafed, partially crushed, and exposing some copper. The grounding cable runs down the firewall of the passenger side of the vehicle, runs briefly along the frame rail, and passes underneath the exhaust manifold. There is a potential for the cable to not properly ground over time, causing unknown issues. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer or dealer as this vehicle is outside of bumper-to-bumper warranty. A support case was opened with GM, but as an individual, they will not allow me to report the issue with pictures. They require the dealer to be the reporter.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
When you push on the break the vehicle’s power shuts down. Yes it is available for inspection upon request. When steering wheel is turned it dies. After this happens stabilizer light comes on and power steering assist comes on. No inspection has been done called dealership and they said the recall from 2014 had already been done. This is a very serious issue when driving in traffic and I do not want to be in or cause an accident

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
From time to time the vehicles power system will surge, blink, and generally act up. The priblem is intermittent. The check engine light will come in then go off, the engine has completely cut off several times while driving, the transmission acts up, radio will turn off, 120v outlet will turn off, occasionally the vehicle will fun for 5-15 seconds after being turned off and then sputter off. And 95% of the time the truck is absolutely fine.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
While passing a vehicle I lost all electrical power which in turn caused the vehicle to lose power. This same thing has happened several times at low speeds. I have the vehicle scheduled for July 2 to get looked at. The engined revved extremly high and it seemed like the transmission went into neutral. It then restarted. I had to roll the driver's window down and got a stabili Trak light that came on after the incident.

On Sunday, May 30, 2021 this truck caught on fire. My son was driving this truck, he looked in the rear view mirror and saw flames coming up between the bed of the truck and the cab. He was on a single lane road following a river, Highway 55 in Idaho, and the cab immediately started filling with smoke. There is a lot of traffic on this highway and he was trying to find a spot to pull off. His airbag on the drivers side deployed but he was able to push it down and see a dirt area to pull off. There were no warning lights or issues with the vehicle that he was aware of. The police and fire were called to the scene, by bystanders. Obviously my son and passenger were very shaken up by this. My son reported this to Geico, his insurance that same day and has been working with the claims adjuster on this. We wanted to report this because this could have so easily been a different outcome. The truck and all belongings in it burned very quickly. It was towed to Mustang Towing in Horseshoe Bend, ID. No injuries fortunately.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Vehicle started having random electrical problems including dropping out of cruise when signaling a lane change, not starting due to antitheft system error, stabltrak error message, message to raise & lower drivers side window. Ultimately the engine, steering & brakes failed, fortunately at low speed, and we coasted to a stop after the truck ran over a curb. Our safety was at risk as we could have crashed into something. Others safety was at risk as we could have ended up in their vehicle path. The dealer replaced some ground wires, at great expense, and said that usually fixes it. Which tells me that this is a known problem. Can't believe that it isn't a safety recall!
