I DID BUY THE TRUCK USED FROM A CHEVROLET DEALER ON 3/12 2016 WITH @49,000 MILES ON IT. WITH IN 6-8 MONTHS OF OWNING THE TRUCK, IT STARTED TO RUST ON THE FENDER WELLS, AND HAD SOME RUST ON THE FRAME. WHEN I TALKED TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ME BECAUSE THE 6 YEAR OR 100,000 MILE WARRANTY RAN OUT ON 10/1/2018. I CALLED GMC CUSTOMER CARE ABOUT THIS AND THEY DID OPEN A SERVICE REQUEST [XXX]. ON 4/8/2019 SERVICE MANAGER FOR THE DEALER TOLD ME THE GME WILL DO NOTHING FOR ME BECAUSE IT WILL COST $12,000.00 TO REPLACE FRAME BET MAY OFER ME A CERTIFICATE FOR $1000.00 TOWARDS A NEW TRUCKS. I FELL THIS IS UNEXCEPTIONABLE TO ME BECAUSE THE SAFETY OF ME AND MY FAMILY WHEN WE ARE IN THE TRUCK. WE BROUGHT THE TRUCK BECAUSE IN HAS A GOOD SAFETY RATING BE WITH HOLES RUSTING IN THE FRAME I FELL MY SAFETY IS COMPROMISED EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING OVER MULTIPLE PLACES - INCLUDING THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG - I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS WILL POTENTIALLY CAUSE SPLINTERED PIECES OF PLASTIC TO BE SHOT INTO THE CABIN DURING A CRASH - THE PART OVER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS ALREADY STARTING TO SPLINTER. A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH HAS FOUND MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE - SO IT MUST BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT.

'TAJARA RECALL' I HAVE A CONSERN ABOUT MY DASH COVER IT'S CRACK FROM WHERE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND THE CENTER OF THE OF THE DASH. WILE GOING IN GOOGLE HOW TO REPLACE THE DASH THERE WHER A NUMERES OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE ON ALL GMC SIERRA AND CHEVY SILVERADO FROM YEARS 2007-2013.

THE DASHBOARD HAS SEVERE CRACKS IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ALSO AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THESE CRACKS ARE RESULTING FROM A POOR DESIGN AND NOT FROM ANY ACCIDENT OR MISUSE. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS VINTAGE OF TRUCK AND HAS AFFECTED MANY OWNERS. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IN THE EVENT OF A ACCIDENT THAT DEPLOYS THE AIRBAGS, THE MANUFACTURERS DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD WOULD SHATTER AND YIELD PROJECTILES WITHIN THE CABIN AREA. THE DASH REQUIRES FULL REPLACEMENT AND CANNOT BE REPAIRED.

TOP OF DASH BOARD IS CRACKED IN NUMEROUS PLACES ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL, CENTER OF DASHBOARD, AND AROUND PASSENGER AIRBAG. WORRIED THAT THIS WOULD BE A SAFETY CONCERN IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. THERE WOULD BE SHARP PIECES OF DASH BOARD BEING THROWN AROUND THE CAB AND MIGHT AFFECT DEPLOYMENT OF PASSENGER AIR BAG. I HAVE ADDITIONAL PHOTOS BUT THEY ARE OVER THE 5MB LIMIT

WHEELS
TWO OF THE FOUR WHEELS WERE LOSING AIR AND TESTED LOCALLY. IT WAS DETERMINED AIR WAS LEAKING FROM EACH OF THE TWO RIMS IN A SIMILAR LOCATION. NOTE-AIR WAS NOT LEAKING FROM THE TIRE OR THE SEAL BETWEEN THE TIRE BEAD AND RIM. INSTEAD, THE RIM ITSELF APPEARS TO HAVE A LATENT DEFECT CAUSING A SLOW LEAK. I CONTACTED A LOCAL GMC DEALER TO SEE ABOUT WARRANTY COVERAGE OR MANUFACTURE INTEREST IN ASSISTING WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE. VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND GM WAS WILLING TO PARTICIPATE AT 10% OF NEW REPLACEMENT COST, SEE ATTACHED. TWO OF THE FOUR RIMS WERE TESTED FOR THE DEFECT. BOTH RIMS EXHIBIT THE SAME DEFECT. THAT 1/2 OF THE RIMS ON MY ONE TRUCK ARE LEAKING, IT SUGGESTS A LARGER DEFECT IN THE STANDARD RIMS. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MOTORIST SAFETY RESULTING FROM DEFECTIVE RIMS.

STEERING
I BOUGHT MY 2013 SIERRA 2500 HD 4X4 USED WITH ONLY 42000 MILES ON IT. WITHIN 1000 MILES OF THAT PURCHASE, THE POWER STEERING PUMP FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACED. I WAS PULLING INTO THE GAS STATION AND ALMOST TOOK OUT A FUELING TOWER. POWER STEERING PUMPS DO NOT FAIL -- THEY ARE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS. I HAVE HAD VEHICLES FOR 30 YEARS AND NEVER HAD A PS PUMP FAILURE. MOST PEOPLE NEVER EXPERIENCE THIS. I HAD TO FORK OUT $500 FOR THE REPAIR -- GMC SHOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR THIS ; THEY ARE LUCKY THIS DID'T TURN OUT TO BE A CATASTROPHE. I WAS LUCKY TO HAVE BEEN MOVING VERY SLOWLY DUE TO THE CONGESTION AT THE STATION.
