AIR BAGS
WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT/UPSLOPE ON A DIRT ROAD THE SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED IN MY 2015 SIERRA 2500 HD PICKUP TRUCK. THERE WAS NO IMPACT AND ABSOLUTELY NO DAMAGE TO THE EXTERIOR OR UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART FOR SEVERAL MINUTES AFTER THE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT (IF ON A BUSY STREET I WOULD HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET OUT OF ROADWAY)

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEAT BELTS
MY SERVICE MAN WAS PULLING OUT OF PARKING LOT AT STORE WHEN AIR BAGS EXPLODED AND SEAT BELTS LOCKED. HE DID NOT HIT ANYTHING AND WAS ONLY GOING ABOUT 10 MPH WHEN THIS HAPPENED. TOOK TO LOCAL DEALER TO SEE IF THEY COULD FIX IT. THEY SAID YES , BUT WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. WE COULD CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER IF NECESSARY. THE BILL WAS $1413.89. (PARTS $798.00--LABOR 562.59 TAX 48.19). WE HAD TO GET IT FIXED AS IT IS ILLEGAL TO BE ON THE ROAD WITHOUT SEAT BELTS (OR AIR BAGS). WE FEEL THESE ARE DEFECTIVE PARTS AN D WE SHOULD BE REIMBURSED BY THE MANUFACTURER.. THIS IS AN UNSAFE VEHICHLE!!!! THANKS

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE ILLUMINATION PERFORMANCE OF THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2015 GMC SIERRA IS UNSATISFACTORY FOR DRIVING ON RURAL ROADS. THE PERFORMANCE IS ALSO SUBPAR IN FOGGY AND WET CONDITIONS. I FEEL THAT I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE SAFELY AT THE POSTED HIGHWAY SPEEDS USING THE CURRENT HEADLIGHTS PROVIDED BY THE AUTOMAKER. I FEEL THAT IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND COULD POSSIBLY CONTRIBUTE TO HAZARDOUS DRIVING SITUATIONS AT NIGHT. I ALSO FEEL THAT IT COULD CAUSE A POTENTIAL ACCIDENT DUE TO THE POOR VISIBILITY AT POSTED HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

STRUCTURE:BODY, SERVICE BRAKES
I ALMOST RAN INTO ANOTHER CAR BECAUSE THE OTHER DRIVER STOPPED SUDDENLY AND I HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES OVER AND OVER TO STOP WHEN THE RUSTED LINE BROKE. I WAS ON A CITY STREET DRIVING SPEED LIMIT AND WAS LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO STOP. I WAS TOWING MY TRAILER LAST WEEK AND ALMOST LOST THE TRAILER BECAUSE THE ENTIRE UNDERBODY IS RUSTED. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL TRUCKS AND NEVER HAVE SEEN THIS HAPPEN. IT WAS A SCARY SITUATION IN BOTH CASES.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
CONCERNING GM 706 CASTECH CYLINDER HEADS/GM TSB 06-06-01-019B I HAVE A 2005 GMC SIERRA WHICH HAS SLOWLY BEEN LEAKING COOLANT FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS. I HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT AND THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT I HAVE A 706 CASTECH CYLINDER HEAD THAT IS NOTORIOUS FOR CRACKING AND LEAKING. THE DEALER TOLD ME THERE WAS COOLANT INSIDE MY OIL AND RECOMMENDED REPLACING THE ENGINE. AS I HAVE BEGUN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE I REALIZE THESE CYLINDER HEADS AFFECT MILLIONS OF GM VEHICLES AND LOYAL CUSTOMERS. GM HAS ISSUED A TSB AND ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AT HAND AND IN MY, AND MANY OTHER CUSTOMERS THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALLED ITEM. I AM CALLING ON GM TO FIX THIS ISSUE/MISTAKE.

POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
BROUGHT IN MY 2015 GMC 1500 SIERRA TRUCK IN FOR VIBRATIONS ISSUES AT HIGH SPEED OF 70-75 MPH. AFTER 4 ATTEMPTS GMC CORP REFUSES TO ADMIT THAT THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUES IN DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AT A NORMAL RATE. THEY CONTINUE TO REMOVE AND REPLACE THE TIRES. I HAVE NEVER OWNED A VEHICLE BEFORE THAT SUCH VIBRATION IS FELT IN THE CABIN OF THE TRUCK, PASSENGER SEAT, FOOT PETAL, ETC.THAT IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE, THAT MY WIFE REFUSE TO DRIVE IN THE TRUCK DUE TO ITS SAFETY. GMC WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE ANY OF THESE COMPLAINTS BUT WILL SAY EVERYTHING IS OF SPECS. LIKE OTHERS THIS IS THE WORSE VEHICLE I HAVE EVER PURCHASED. FOUND MORE COMPLAINTS LIKE THIS HAS BEEN FILED, BUT SAME RESULT, GMC WILL DO NOTHING.
