EXTERIOR LIGHTING
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, BOTH LOW AND HIGH BEAM HEAD LAMPS FAILED TO FULLY ILLUMINATE, WHICH DIMINISHED THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000. UPDATED 04/06/16*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE LIGHTS ARE WORKING, BUT THEY DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD WELL ENOUGH. UPDATED 11/21/2017*JS

THE DASH ON MY TRUCK HAS CRACKED BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ALSO BY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL. ONLINE FORUMS PROVE THAT GMT900 VEHICLES (TAHOE, SUBURBAN, YUKON, SILVERADO, SIERRA) HAVE THIS ISSUE. IT IS TIME THAT GM STARTS A RECALL FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE DASH DESIGN. IN THE EVENT OF A WRECK AND AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT THE BROKEN DASH COULD EASILY SEND PLASTIC FRAGMENTS THROUGHOUT THE CABIN.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE DASH ON MY 2010 GMC SIERRA SLT CRACKED IN TWO PLACES. ONE IS RIGHT ON THE PASSENGER AIRBAG TO THE EDGE OF THE DASHBOARD. TWO IS FROM THE EDGE OF THE DASH UP TO THE GAGE CLUSTER HUMP. THESE CRACKS HAPPENED ON A 4 YEAR OLD TRUCK THAT HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF. I ALWAYS HAVE A SUN VISOR UP WHEN PARKED OUTSIDE. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO GM AND HAD A DEALER TAKE A LOOK AT IT. THE SERVICE GUY SAID THAT HE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY REPLACED HIS DASH FOR FREE. THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WASN'T A SAFETY CONCERN AND GM WOULD COVER $300 OF THE REPAIRS. THE REPAIRS WERE GOING TO COST AROUND $1000. THIS IS A VERY COMMON DESIGN FLAW THAT GM DOES NOT WANT TAKE CARE OF. I FEEL THAT THIS COULD BE SAFELY CONCERN IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS AND THE DASH SHOOTS SHARP PLASTIC FROM A FAULTY DASH ALL OVER ME OR MY FAMILY.

ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING DOWN A STEEP HILL, LOST ENGINE POWER AND TRUCK SPEED WAS DRAMATICALLY REDUCED. DASH WARNING "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" DISPLAYED. COULD NOT ACCELERATE. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THIS SITUATION CAUSED DIFFICULTY CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE.

DASH CRACKED OVER DRIVER SIDE INSTRUMENT PANEL; I NOTICED THIS IN THE FIRST WEEK OR TWO OF DECEMBER, 2015. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AND I DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES TO PAY TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE EQUIPMENT. TRUCK IS ALWAYS PARKED UNDER COVER AND NEVER EXPOSED TO DIRECT EXTREME TEMPERATURES FOR ANY EXTENDED PERIODS. TRUCK HAS APPROX. 79,000 MILES AND IS VERY WELL MAINTAINED. IN ADDITION TO THE DASH CRACKING, THE LEATHER DRIVER SEAT IS RIPPING AND APPEARS TO BE CAUSED BY THE SEAT BELT NOT RETRACTING PROPERLY. THIS WAS NOTICED ABOUT A WEEK AFTER I NOTICED THE CRACKED DASH. I AM THE ONLY DRIVER, AM 67 YEARS OLD, DON'T WEAR ANYTHING SHARP ON MY CLOTHING THAT WOULD DAMAGE MY SEAT. SURELY THE INTERIOR OF THIS TRUCK SHOULD LAST LONGER THAN THE TIRES AND I BELIEVE GM SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.
