ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE GAS TANK/GAUGE WILL BE ON "FULL", THEN-WHILE DRIVING, THE GAS GAUGE WILL GO TO "E" AND THE DASH WILL ALERT YOU AS TO NO FUEL. UPON TAKING THIS VEHICLE TO THE DEALER THE FIRST TIME, THE DEALER COULD FIND NO ISSUES THROUGH THE COMPUTER. THE "SECOND" OCCURRENCE-THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DIFFERENT DEALER, AND THEY STATED THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE "THIRD" OCCURRENCE-THE GAUGE WENT TO "E", WHILE DRIVING, THE DEALER CLAIMED IT WAS NOW A CORD/WIRE THAT ATTACHED TO THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR RUNNING THE LENGTH OF THE VEHICLE UNDER THE TRUCK. SINCE IT "APPEARS" THE RESOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE IS QUESTIONABLE, AND THE DEALER(S) HAVE NOT FULLY CORRECTED THE ISSUE, HOW CAN I BE CONFIDENT THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY HAS FUEL? ALSO, THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE BLUE TOOTH LINKING TO "I-PHONES/IOS SYSTEMS (ONLY), NOT ANDROID PHONE/SYSTEMS,AS CALL/TEXT NOTIFICATIONS MAY NOT ALWAYS ALERT WHILE YOU ARE IN THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST DEALER STATED THEY CONTACTED GM, BUT SO FAR-THERE IS NO FINAL RESOLUTION FROM GM REGARDING THE BLUE TOOTH ISSUE WITH I-PHONES/IOS SYSTEMS. I DO HAVE ALL RECEIPTS FOR ALL ACTIONS TAKEN REGARDING THIS VEHICLE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), POWER TRAIN, STEERING
BACK IN EARLY 2018 PRIOR TO MY BUMPER TO BUMPER EXPIRING, I HAD THE CHECK POWER STEERING AND STABILITRAK COME ON ON DIC. I TOOK IT TO DEALER BUT THEY STATED COULD NOT FIND ANY ISSUES. THIS KEEPS HAPPENING BUT EVERYTIME I TURN TRUCK OFF AND THEN BACK ON AS STATED IN OWNER'S MANUAL, PROBLEM GOES AWAY. MORE RECENT PAST WEEK, IT HAS BEEN HAPPENINGS AGAIN BUT MORE FREQUENT TO WHICH AT TIMES, TURNING OFF AND WAITING THEN TURNING BACK ON, THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS VARIOUS TIMES (WHILE DRIVING CITY, HIGHWAY, AS I'M TURNING VEHICLE ON FOR FIRST TIME IN THE DAY, WHILE BACKING UP, WHILE PARKING). I HAVE MENTIONED AND TAKEN IN TO DEALER OR OTHER PLACES BUT NO CODES ARE FOUND AND PROBLEM CANNOT BE DUPLICATED.

HAD VEHICLE ON LIFT FOR SAFETY INSPECTION FOUND THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE ROTTED OUT BEHIND THE CAB NEAR THE LEFT LEAF SPRING MOUNT. THE SPRING MOUNT HAS SINCE COLLAPSED INTO THE FRAME MAKING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE AND A SAFETY HAZARD. NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE MANUFACTURER TO REPAIR.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TRUCK WON'T START FOR 10 MINUTES OR SO WHILE IN A PARKED POSITION, AND AT TIMES JUST AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF, IT WOULD NOT START. INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUE. HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES RECENTLY, STOP TO GET GAS AND WENT TO START TRUCK AND WON'T START AFTER TRYING THE KEY AND POPPING THE HOOD TO CHECK CONNECTIONS. WOULD ATTEMPT TO START VEHICLE AND NOTHING HAPPENS, NO SOUND WHEN TURNING THE KEY, BUT ALL DASH LIGHTS COME ON, RADIO WORKS, HORN WORKS WHEN TRYING TO START. WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN, REPEATED THIS SEVERAL TIMES AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES IN BETWEEN, THEN FINALLY WHEN TRYING AFTER APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES, THE TRUCK WOULD START. CALLED ONSTAR THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, WHILE TALKING TO PERSON MAKING ARRANGEMENTS TO TOW, ATTEMPTED TO START VEHICLE WHILE TALKING TO TECH ASSISTANCE, FINALLY THE VEHICLE STARTED. ALL DURING THIS ISSUE THE VEHICLE IS IN A STOPPED STATIONARY POSITION, ENGINE TURNED OFF. DOES NOT MATTER IF IN A PARKING LOT, GAS STATION BY A PUMP, IN MY DRIVEWAY OR ON THE STREET PARKED. HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE STARTING ISSUE, CLAIMING IT WAS MY BATTERY, THEY TESTED AND IT FLAT LINED. THEY CHARGED FOR A BATTERY AC DELCO, AND DIDN'T PUT THAT BRAND IN MY VEHICLE. THEY PUT IN A LOW AMPERAGE BATTERY WITH LOW CCA. YET BILLED ME FOR THE AC DELCO. I HAVE CALLED THEM AND QUESTIONED THEM. THIS IS FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY ON THE PART OF THE DEALERSHIP, OVERBILLING AND NOT PUTTING THE CORRECT BATTERY IN THE VEHICLE. STILL THE VEHICLE HAS THIS ISSUE. INITIALLY STARTED 12/30/2019 AND THEN AGAIN 1/10/2020 AND THE VERY LAST TIME 1/13/2020, ALL AFTER ARRIVING TO MY DESTINATION TO WORK OR AT A GAS STATION, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO LEAVE, THIS INCIDENT OCCURS. IT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED THAT THE GM PASSLOCK SYSTEM IS GOING INTO "SAFETY MODE" FOR SOME REASON. THIS INFORMATION IS FROM ANOTHER SOURCE.

POWER TRAIN
TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS AND VIBRATES. HAPPENS USUALLY AROUND 55-60 MPH, AFTER THE FLUID REACHES ABOUT 80 DEGREES. HARD SHIFTING ALSO FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. GM IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM YET CHOOSES TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. TRUCK IS OUT OF WARRANTY(40K) SO THEY WANT $400 TO FLUSH TRANSMISSION. IT'S A SHAME THAT GM WON'T STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. WHEN WILL THEY BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE?
