STRUCTURE:BODY
CRACKED DASH...THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH GM, BUT NO RESOLUTION HAS BEEN PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER AS OF YET. THIS ISSUE POSES A SERIOUS CONCERN THAT PIECES OF PLASTIC COULD BECOME DANGEROUS PROJECTILES IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH AND/OR AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

DESIGN FLAW IN CABIN AIR FILTRATION SYSTEM LEADING TO HEALTH HAZARD WITHIN THE VEHICLE. MICE HAVE ENTERED THE COWL AIR PLENUM AREA AND BUILT NESTS ON TOP OF AND OUT OF THE CABIN AIR FILTER MATERIAL. THE FILTER HAS BECOME SATURATED WITH MOUSE DANDER, FECES AND OTHER MATERIALS. EVENTUALLY THESE CONTAMINANTS WORK THEIR WAY THROUGH THE FILTER AND AN ODOR IS NOTICED INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE MICE ARE BELIEVED TO ENTER THIS AREA THROUGH SIGNIFICANT UNSCREENED OPENINGS AT THE ENDS OF A PLASTIC COVER OVER THE PLENUM IN THE WINDSHIELD WIPER AREA UNDER THE HOOD. I HAVE CONTACTED GM WITH REGARD TO THIS DESIGN FLAW. . SO FAR, MY DEALER HAS REPAIR THE DAMAGE AND INSTALL NEW CABIN FILTERS AT MY EXPENSES . WAS TOLD BY DEALER THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY NO ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO BLOCK OR SCREEN THE OPENINGS. THE TRUCK IS REGULARLY GARAGED WITH AN OTHER NON-GM VEHICLES THAT DO NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. INDIVIDUALS WITH RESPIRATORY CONDITIONS SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT THE SIGNIFICANT PLENUM DESIGN FLAW IN THESE GM TRUCKS.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN JUNE OF 2015. THE HEADLIGHTS IN THIS VEHICLE ARE ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE AND EXTREMELY UNSAFE. NIGHT TIME DRIVING IS VERY DIFFICULT AND UNNERVING BECAUSE THE HEADLIGHT PERFORMANCE IS SO POOR. IF DRIVING AT NIGHT AND IT STARTS RAINING, FORGET IT. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER A HALF DOZEN TIMES AND THEY PERFORMED 1TSB WHICH MADE ALMOST NO NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
HEADLIGHTS ON NEW 2015 GMC SIERRA DENALI 1500 TRUCK INADEQUATE - POOR LIGHTING PATTERN IN DARK DRIVING CONDITIONS - UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS. DEALERSHIP DENIED ISSUE, THEN STATED MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS REDIRECTING LIGHTS DOWN TOWARD ROAD. THIS ADJUSTMENT DIDN'T RESOLVE THE DIM LIGHTING ISSUE. I SUGGESTED PAYING OUT OF POCKET TO REPLACE HEADLIGHTS - DEALERSHIP LAUGHED AND SAID THAT WOULD VOID THE WARRANTY. THESE DIM HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS.
