AC CONDENSER UNIT STARTS LEAKING AND VEHICLE AC STOPS BLOWING COOL AIR. THIS MAY ONLY SEEM LIKE A INCONVENIENCE, BUT HERE IN THE SOUTH SUMMERS ARE UNBEARABLE WITHOUT AC. OCCUPANTS OF VEHICLES COULD EASILY SUCCUMB TO HEAT EXHAUSTION. IT COULD BE DIFFICULT FOR THE DRIVER TO KEEP SWEAT OUT OF HIS OR HER EYES. THIS INCONVENIENCE COULD LEAD TO DISTRACTED/DISGRUNTLED DRIVING. THERE ARE ACTUALLY A NUMBER OF REASON THAT THIS COULD POSE A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK. GM IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND HAS FAILED TO PROPERLY ADDRESS THE SITUATION. I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT MY AC WASN'T WORKING UNTIL MY VEHICLE HAD 37,000 MILES ON IT. I'M POSITIVE THAT IT TOOK LONGER THAN THE FEW DAYS BETWEEN ME BEING AT 36,000 AND 37,000 MILES FOR THE REFRIGERANT TO COMPLETELY EXIT THE SYSTEM AND THE AIR TO NOT WORK. GM HAS OFFERED A HALF-HEARTED GOODWILL REPAIR THAT IS STILL JUST SHY OF $600. THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE FOR GM FOR YEARS AND IS NOT ONLY NEGLIGENT, SELLING ME THIS VEHICLE IN NOVEMBER OF 2015 ESSENTIALLY CONSTITUTES FRAUD.

AIR BAGS
DASH HAS CRACKED ON PASSENGER SIDE WHERE THE AIR BAG WILL DEPLOY. CONCERNED THAT IT MAY AFFECT THE DEPLOYMENT OR SEND SHARDS ON DEPLOYMENT THAT COULD INJURE SOMEONE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE! IT WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION BY A FRIEND WITH THE SAME MODEL CHEVY AND IS A COMMON ISSUE. GM NEEDS TO REPLACE AS IT'S AN OBVIOUS DEFECT WITH THEIR TRUCKS.

SERVICE BRAKES
I ALMOST KILLED A KID TODAY PARKING FOR A BASEBALL GAME. I WAS TRAVELING SLOWLY AND PARKING WHEN MY BRAKES BECAME HARD TO PUSH AND FAILED. TRUCK WENT OVER CURB AND TOWARD KID PUTTING ON HIS CLEATS AND NOT FACING ME. I WAS ABLE TO PUSH AS HARD AS I COULD AND IT STOPPED. I BACKED UP AND BRAKES WORKED AGAIN. I HAVE 46,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK. I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE IT, BUT IT SEEMS THEY ARE WORKING AGAIN. IF THIS IS COMMON, GMC NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF THIS. SOMEONE WILL SOON BE HURT SERIOUSLY!

THE AC CONDENSER WAS LEAKING, WHICH MADE THE AC BLOW HOT AIR. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH, THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING, AND KNOWN, ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. MANY INDIVIDUALS HAVE BEEN TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF MONETARILY (ME JUST YESTERDAY) BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE, AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. I JUST HAD HIP SURGERY, AND THE COST OF REPAIR REALLY PUT A FINANCIAL STRAIN ON ME. I LIVE IN TEXAS, AND NO AC IS NOT AN OPTION.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHT UP. THIS HAS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING OF THE FREEWAY AND ON CITY STREETS. SOMETIMES THESE LIGHTS GO OFF AND SOMETIMES THEY REMAIN LIGHTED. WHEN THIS HAPPENS I FEAR THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES AND HAVE TAKEN THIS MATTER TO A MECHANIC. THE BRAKES WERE EXAMINED AND HE FOUND NOTHING WRONG. THIS IS VERY STARTLING TO THE DRIVER AND OF GREAT CONCERN. THIS APPEARS ON INTERNET SEARCHES AND IT APPEARS THAT 100,000 PLUS INDIVIDUALS HAVE THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND OBVIOUSLY THIS MATTER HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THERE ATTENTION. YET THEY CLAIM THEY ARE UNFAMILIAR AND WANT TO CHARGE $600 TO DIAGNOSE AND THEN LIKELY MORE TO FIX. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A LIE AS THERE IS NO WAY THAT ONE COULD BE READING SO MUCH ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET IF IT WAS NOT A PROBLEM IN THE GMC SIERRA TRUCKS. SOME CLAIM IT IS A FAULTY CIRCUIT BOARD WHILE OTHERS HAVE LOST THE USE OF THEIR BRAKES. THIS IS OF GREAT CONCERN. THIS OCCURS WHILE DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND SOMETIMES AT HIGH SPEEDS ON A FREEWAY.
