THE GMC SIERRA 3500HD WHILE IN REGENERATION MODE FUNNELS EXHAUST DIRECTLY INTO THE CAB THROUGH THE VENTS. WHILE GM RECOGNIZED THIS AS A FLAW AND CAME UP WITH A FIX FOR IT, THEY WILL ONLY REPAIR IT IN A 5 YEAR OR 100,000 MILE WINDOW. HOW IS THIS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE WITHOUT AN EXPIRATION?

SERVICE BRAKES
2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 DENALI PICK-UP TRUCK WITH 67,900 MILES: EXPERIENCED COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER BRAKES IN STOP-N-GO TRAFFIC SITUATION ON HIGHWAY. PROBLEM STARTED AS AN RARE ISSUE THAT WOULD CORRECT ITSELF AND PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE OVER A WEEK'S TIME. ISSUE OCCURRED WHEN IN TRAFFIC REQUIRING FREQUENT STOP-N-GO BRAKING. BRAKE PEDAL WENT COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR AND STOPPING DISTANCES DRAMATICALLY INCREASED. HAD NO WAY TO MANUALLY APPLY THE BRAKES TO GET THEM FULLY ENGAGED. ULTIMATELY FORCED TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND APPLY PARKING BRAKE TO STOP. SUBSEQUENTLY FOUND GM BULLETIN #PIT5361B REFERRING TO OTHER CUSTOMER PROBLEMS WITH WEAK VACUUM AT BRAKE BOOSTER. THAT PROBLEM WAS CONFIRMED AND DIAGNOSED BY MY AUTOMOTIVE PROFESSIONAL. ENDED UP HAVING TO REPLACE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER, VACUUM BOOSTER, VACUUM PUMP, VACUUM TUBE/PIPE AND 2 SERPENTINE BELTS FOR A GRAND TOTAL OF $1626.00 IN REPAIR WORK (SIMILAR AMOUNT TO THE OTHERS I FOUND WHO EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE). TALKED TO MY GMC DEALER WHO CONFIRMED THAT THIS IS A RECOGNIZED ISSUE THAT HASN'T YET RISEN TO THE LEVEL OF A "SAFETY RECALL". HOWEVER, I WAS TOLD "STAY TUNED" BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF A RECALL ON THE POWER BRAKE SYSTEM WAS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.

VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY SHOW A WARNING SIGNAL FOR STABILTRACK TURNING OFF. THEN IT WILL CYCLE DOOR LOCKS UP AND DOWN, TURN ON THE AIR BAG LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, AND SOMETIMES REDUCE POWER TO 20 MPH. IT WILL ALSO KILL THE VEHICLE GAUGES. NUMEROUS TRIPS TO THE SHOP HAVE FAILED TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH OF STABILTRACK 2009 CHEVY/GMC WILL SHOW A TON OF HITS. DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERNS OF THESE CRITICAL SYSTEMS POWERING DOWN, THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS OCCURS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, WHICH MAKES IT MORE CONCERNING. THIS ISSUE STARTED WITH 66K MILES AND HAS PERSISTED. VEHICLE NOW HAS 96K.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING
I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS SITE AND THIS ACCIDENT HAPPENED IN OCT 2014. I WAS GOING AROUND A CURVE WITH 40 MPH SPEED LIMIT AND I WAS GOING 40 MPH. I STARTED TO BRAKE AS THIS WAS DOWNHILL AND A VERY LARGE TRUCK AND I DID NOT WISH TO INCREASE SPEED AS I FOLLOWED THE CURVE. MY BRAKES DID NOT RESPOND AND SANK TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESISTANCE. I HAD NO STEERING ABILITY EITHER. I ENDED UP IN A HEAD-ON COLLISION WITH A VERY LARGE TREE AND THE AIRBAGS FAILED. I SPLIT MY HEAD OPEN ON THE STEERING WHEEL DESPITE BLOCKING MY FACE WITH MY FOREARMS CROSSED; A DE-GLOVING 10-12 INCH LACERATION DOWN TO THE SKULL THAT WRAPS FROM MY NOSE BRIDGE AROUND TO MY RIGHT EAR IN THE CIRCULAR SHAPE OF THE STEERING WHEEL. MY RIGHT LEG WAS PINNED INTO THE CENTER DASH AREA AS THE ENGINE BLOCK AND STEERING COLUMN WERE SHOVED INTO THE CAB. I HAD TO BE REMOVED FROM MY VEHICLE WITH THE JAWS OF LIFE BY EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAMS. I AM LUCKY TO BE ALIVE. MY QUADRASTEER WAS DECLARED TOTALED BY USAA INSURANCE AND DESTROYED WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE. I CALLED USAA 3 DAYS AFTER THE CRASH AFTER FINDING SO MANY BRAKE FAILURES ON THIS VEHICLE/YEAR MODEL AND WAS TOLD IT WAS ALREADY DESTROYED, SO DOING AN INVESTIGATION WAS NOT POSSIBLE. I HAVE LIVED IN PAIN AND ALSO PARALYZING FEAR OF DRIVING SINCE THEN; 3 YEARS. I AM A DISABLED MILITARY VETERAN WITH PTSD AND PRIOR BRAIN SURGERY AND THIS ACCIDENT CAUSED TO ME ISOLATE SO SEVERELY I COULD NOT EVEN ATTEND MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS DUE TO MY NEW FEARS OF DRIVING & RIDING IN VEHICLES. MY LIFE IS NOW RUINED BY THIS ACCIDENT. DECREASING VA DISABILITY DUE TO INABILITY TO ATTEND APPOINTMENTS CAUSED A $1000.00 PER MONTH LOSS OF BENEFITS. I CAN'T AFFORD MY BILLS AND HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH THE VA TO GAIN ACCESS TO MEDICAL EVALUATIONS SINCE THEY ARE NOW STRIVING TO CUT BENEFITS FROM ANYONE THEY CAN. PLEASE RECALL NOW!!!!! WHO ELSE HAS TO BE HURT OR KILLED?????

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, NOT UNDER AN OVERPASS OR NEAR OTHER CARS WHEN I HEARD A LOUD BANG. THIS NOISE SOUNDED LIKE A BOMB GOING OFF. I PULLED OVER AND LOOKED ON THE TOP OF THE TRUCK AND MY SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. THERE WASN'T ANYTHING AROUND TO EVEN HIT IT. FROM THE LOOKS OF THE BREAK THERE HAD BEEN AN INTERNAL PRESSURE AS THE GLASS WAS STRESSED OUTWARD. IF THE SUNROOF PROTECTOR WOULD HAVE BEEN OPEN THIS WHOLE EVENT COULD HAVE BEEN LIFE THREATENING.

THE DASH CRACKED NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY KNOW ALL ABOUT THIS AND SAID IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE. FEARING PLASTIC PIECES FLYING IN THE EVENT OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, I PAID TO HAVE THE DASH REPLACED. LATER, I DROVE INTO A POTHOLE AT A VERY LOW RATE OF SPEED. THE SECOND DASH CRACKED IN THE SAME SPOT. THE DEALER SAYS IT IS MY FAULT AND THAT THERE ARE NO SAFETY CONCERNS. GM IS AWARE OF THIS AND IS UNWILLING TO PAY FOR A NEW DASH. THEY ARE JEOPARDIZING THE LIVES OF MY PASSENGERS SO THAT THEY DO NOT LOSE PROFITS. THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE REPAIRED BY GM SO THAT LIVES ARE NOT UNNECESSARY LOST.
