SERVICE BRAKES
Brake vacuum pump is failing creating an unsafe condition while braking when the vehicle is in a low RPM range. I had a close call while backing down a sloping driveway at my home in which it was almost impossible to stop the vehicle. The pedal provided a lot of resistance but the vehicles braking power was greatly reduced. Ultimately I had to use all my strength on the pedal for the vehicle to stop. After continual issues, I am in the process of getting the vehicle repaired. Thank goodness this didn’t occur while backing a boat into the water. I have not been able to use a boat for fear of ending up in the lake.

SERVICE BRAKES
Brakes seem to sputter/skip when applying when traveling above 40 mph. I had an inspection done with Brake Masters. They inspected brake pads, rotors and performed a road test. They stated Brakes pads and rotors were still good about another year left. They did say brakes sputtered at about 40 mph and over. They thought it could be issue with brake vacuum system Thanks

the brakes have a hard pedal with no brakes at low speed . In reverse have to apply lots of pressure to brake pedal, and this does not always work. I read there is a recall. I want to get repaired before an accident occurs. This is on going, not just the date below.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
the Silverado 2500hd and I think 3500 work duty pickups some don't come with a stabilizer damper for steering my 2014 work truck with only 19k miles has a shake so bad you can't drive on the highway, I first noticed the shimmer at 2 yrs the deal did alignments and said they could not find what caused it, now I took the truck in for check engine on an o2 sensor they said catalytic converter went bad and it needed alignment so I said yes to the o2 sensor and alignment then I leave the check engine light pops on and when trying to drive over 35 mph the steering wheel violently shakes back and worth, I talked to a commercial tech he said the stabilizer always goes bad on these and so does all the youtube videos but some videos show that some trucks have a stabilizer and some don't, but do have the mounting holes.

SERVICE BRAKES
I believe my 2014 silverado has a recall for the vacuum brake pump. I just purchased the truck a month ago And I noticed when I take off in drive or reverse and hit the brake pedal it doesn’t want to move and becomes stiff. It has almost caused me to have 2 accidents now. After doing research and looking things up I have come to know there as a recall on these trucks for the vacuum brake pump and I don’t think this truck has ever been fixed for it. I would like to get this fixed before it causes an accident.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
My vehicle's headlamps are so dull I can't see at night. I contacted GM and they offered to replace them if I would pay half the cost , which I was going to do , but I had a heart attack and surgery & was in intensive care for almost a month. When I became able to come home , after I missed my appointment due to this situation , I contacted GM and they said they were not going to help me because I didn't have it done in time. My vehicle is always parked in a garage and well kept. The headlamps are VERY dull and dangerous to drive at night. I would like Gm to replace them as I believe this is a manufacture's defect. I was a GM Dealer for several years and don't believe this is their usual practice , giving them the benefit of the doubt. These are dangerous as I can't see at night and oncoming traffic can't see me either clearly. Please help me. This is DANGEROUS!

When stopping at slow speeds in stop and go traffic my abs would kick on and the power breaks would not work and I would need to press the break pedal very hard to stop. Only seems to happen in stop and go traffic at slow speeds but it's super scarey.

SEAT BELTS
I was buckling my seatbelt and the cable connecting the lap belt end to the seat base broke. The failure was at the top end of the cable where the cable is swedged into a bracket. From my inspection of the cable, it looked like a fatigue type failure of the cable at the point the flexure was stopped by the end connection.

POWER TRAIN
I purchased vehicle new 12/2013 and have had the vehicle to Chevy dealer after purchase due to hard downshifts and banging in transmission on shifting. Dealer claimed condition was a normal condition and would do nothing to remedy. This shifting condition stayed the same until the following event. 10/19/2021 driving northbound on I75 in Michigan at 75mph vehicle starts jerking and banging and starts losing speed. Tachometer is bouncing up and down between 1800-2300 rpm, transmission temp was 270 degrees. Vehicle is having transmission failure. I put transmission in manual mode and used 4th gear at 45 mph to limp into my destination. It was pitch dark, raining and very hard to see and I was concerned of being rear ended if I pulled off the side of the road and waited for a wrecker. The next day I drove the vehicle to a transmission shop, again using M4 to limp in as my brother in law followed behind with his emergency flashers on to alert others of a slow moving vehicle. The independent transmission shop inspected my vehicle and determined the torque converter failed and contaiminated the transmission, lines and cooler with metal shavings. They also commented they see several of these vehicles for the same problem, it's common issue they said. Mileage at failure was 124780. They rebuilt the transmission, replaced the torque converter and flushed the lines and cooler at a cost of 2755.00. GM should be held responsible to reimburse owners of these vehicles as they knew of these transmission issues and placed the occupants of vehicle at risk of injury or death if this issue caused a collision. I have attached documented complaint at GM when vehicle was new of clunking and banging in transmission and their answer was its a normal condition.
