DRIVERS SEAT BELT LATCH BROKE. COULD NOT LATCH SEAT BELT BEFORE DRIVING. UPON INSPECTION, CAN SEE SOMETHING IN THE LATCH IS BROKEN, AS IT LOOKS DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER LATCHES. I CAN USUALLY GET IT TO LATCH BY PRESSING THE RELEASE BUTTON WHILE INSERTING THE TAB PORTION AND JIGGLING, ETC. THIS TAKES FROM A FEW SECONDS TO A FEW MINUTES, AND IS QUITE FRUSTRATING. ALSO, I AM UNSURE AS TO HOW SECURE THE LATCH MECHANISM IS NOW.
1. MY TAKATA INFLATOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ON MY 2007 CHEVROLET SILVERADO AND, IS A RECALL ITEM, AND GENERAL MOTORS IS USING DELAYING TACTICS RATHER THAN REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE PART(S). THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. NOW MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND AFTER LOOKING AT THE RECALL LIST AND DESCRIPTION IT SAYS: SAFETY RISK: THE PROPELLANT IN SOME TYPES OF TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATORS CAN DEGRADE OVER TIME, ESPECIALLY AFTER LONG TERM EXPOSURE IN HOT AND HUMID REGIONS. IF THE PROPELLANT DEGRADES TO A CERTAIN LEVEL, THE INFLATORS MAY RUPTURE DURING DEPLOYMENT, CAUSING SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES. REMEDY: THE NECESSITY OF A REMEDY IS DEPENDENT UPON NHTSA'S DECISION ON GM'S PETITION FOR INCONSEQUENTIALITY. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE FOLLOWING THAT DECISION. IN THE MEANTIME, YOU CAN ALSO CHECK THE STATUS OF THIS RECALL AT MY.GM.COM/RECALLS. GM CONSIDERS YOUR VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE. RECALL STATUS: RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE .... 2. I'VE HAD A RECURRING ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT IS NOT DIAGNOSABLE AS IT IS A TOTAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE THAT IS NOT ABLE TO BE DETERMINED BY ON STAR AND WITHOUT POWER, NO DIAGNOSIS CAN BE MADE. THE COMPUTER DOESN'T KEEP A RECORD OF WHY THE FAILURE OCCURS, AND WE HAVE HAD MULTIPLE CABLES AND BATTERIES REPLACED IN AN ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THE UNKNOWN ISSUE. THIS VEHICLE WAS PRODUCED IN CANADA.

OTHER- I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL DEALERS AND EVERY ONE HAS TOLD ME THAT THE PLASTIC USED ON MY VEHICLES DASH HAS BECOME BRITTLE AND BROKEN. THIS INCLUDED ALL SILVERADO TRUCK FROM 2007-2013. ONE EVEN MENTIONED THAT IT COULD POSSIBLE AFFECT THE FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM... IF IT EVEN FUNCTIONS PROPERLY. YET, NO ATTENTION TO THIS BY GM.
CRACKED DASH!! MY 2007 CHEVY SILVERADO DASH IS CRUMBLING TO PIECES.. I'M WORRIED IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG GOES OFF, PIECES OF PLASTIC WILL IMPACT THE PASSENGER.. GM SHOULD REALLY FIX THIS.
DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED MAKING IT A SAFETY CONCERN FROM THE AIR BAGS. THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR. NOW THE TOTAL DASHBOARD HAS COMPLETELY CRACKED.

DASHBOARD PLASTIC IS CRACKING NEAR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THIS IS A VERY COMMON DEFECT IN SILVERADOS, TAHOE'S, DENALIS, ETC FROM THE YEARS 07-13. THE CONCERN (OTHER THAN POOR QUALITY) IS DEBRIS BREAKING LOOSE IN AN ACCIDENT IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYS AND CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. GENERAL MOTORS DENIES THAT THIS IS A DEFECT AND IS CLAIMING THAT IT IS CAUSED BY THE OWNERS USING CLEANING PRODUCTS SUCH AS ARMOR ALL ON THEIR DASH. THIS IS, OF COURSE, NONSENSE. MANY OWNERS HAVE NEVER USED ANY CLEANING PRODUCTS AND STILL HAVE THE SAME CRACKS IN THE SAME PLACES. THE REAL PROBLEM IS A LACK OF TOLERANCE IN THE PLASTIC MOUNTING POINTS WHICH DOES NOT ALLOW ANY ROOM FOR EXPANSION/CONTRACTION IN THE HEAT AND COLD. HERE IS A LINK TO A FACEBOOK GROUP FOR OWNERS OF GM VEHICLES WITH THIS DEFECT WITH 5,700 MEMBERS AND COUNTING EVERY DAY WITH ALL THE EVIDENCE YOU COULD EVER ASK FOR.

DRIVING DOWN A PAVED ROAD AT APX 40 MILES AN HOUR AND HEARD A LOUD SOUND LIKE A SHOT GUN GOING OFF, MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT CLAMPED DOWN AND THE FLASHERS ON THE TRUCK TURNED ON.

AFTER CONTACTING LOCAL DEALER I WAS TOLD I NEEDED A NEW AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE AND I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH SEAT BELTS. I AM BRUISED FROM THE SEAT BELT AND VERY HAPPY THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES AROUND AS THE DISORIENTATION FROM THE EVENT VERY WELL COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT.

TAKATA RECALL. THE VEHICLE I OWN HAD A RECALL ISSUED IN AUGUST OF 2015.(GM RECALL 49152) THERE HAS BEEN NO NOTIFICATION OF AN AVAILABLE REPAIR MADE TO THE VEHICLE IN THE INTERIM, ALTHOUGH GM STATES THE VEHICLE IS "SAFE TO DRIVE" THEY EVIDENTLY CONSIDERED IT "SAFE TO DRIVE" WHEN MANUFACTURED AS WELL. I LIVE IN A HOT HUMID ENVIRONMENT (LOUISIANA) WHERE THE INFLATORS ARE DESCRIBED AS DEGRADING PREMATURELY. I UNDERSTAND THE MAGNITUDE OF THIS RECALL, BUT I WOULD APPRECIATE A RESOLUTION OF THIS ISSUE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT HE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE AND THE AIR BAG DEFECT INDICATOR LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY COMES ON .
FRAME BEAMING ON THE 2007 X TRA CAB CLASSIC TRUCK. GENERAL MOTORS CAMPAIGN #PIT3009J. THE PROBLEM IS SO BAD THAT IT SHAKES THE SEAT SO VIOLENTLY THAT IT IS A HEALTH HAZARD TO DRIVE AROUND. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY TRUCK FOR TWO YEARS NOW AS MY DAILY DRIVER. THE FRAME SHAKES SO BAD ON THE FREEWAY THAT IT HAS CAUSED ME BACK STRAINS AND NECK PAIN WHEN DRIVING FOR OVER AN HOUR. I HAVE BEEN TO AMERICAS TIRE MANY TIMES THINKING IT WAS A TIRE PROBLEM THEY HAVE REBALANCED THE TIRES AND EVEN REPLACED THE WHOLE SET WITH ANOTHER BRAND WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. AFTER MY RECENT MRI FROM BACK PAIN I BELIEVE THAT DRIVING THIS TRUCK IS FULLY TO BLAME FOR MY PAIN. TWO YEARS BEFORE I HAD A CLEAN CT SCAN WITH JUST A SLIGHT DISC BULGE, NOW ALL MY DISCS ARE SMASHED KNOWN AS SCHMOR'LS DEPRESSIONS CAUSED FROM THE REPEATED UP AND DOWN BEATING ON MY SPINE FROM DRIVING THIS SILVERADO FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS UP AND DOWN THE CALIFORNIA FREEWAYS. THERE ARE TIMES IT SHAKES SO BAD I FEEL I AM GOING TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE TRUCK. I WANT GENERAL MOTORS TO KNOW HOW SERIOUS OF A PROBLEM THIS IS, MORE THAN A SHAKE IT IS BEATING PEOPLE LIKE ME TO DEATH AND IS A SERIOUS HEALTH RISK. I FEEL I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO CONTACT AN ATTORNEY FOR HELP. *TR

THE TRUCK IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND HAS BEEN WELL-MAINTAINED. AT 127,000 THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A NOISE DIAGNOSED AS LIFTER NOISE. WITHIN A HUNDRED MILES OR SO, WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, IT STARTED TO MAKE A VERY LOUD NOISE, AND AGAIN DIAGNOSED AS LIFTERS ON AT LEAST 2 CYLINDERS NEEDING REPLACED. UPON THE ADVICE OF A 25+ YEAR GM MECHANIC I WILL BE REPLACING THE MOTOR AS THIS IS MOST COST EFFECTIVE AS WELL AS BUYING A PROGRAM CHIP TO BYPASS THE "ACTIVE FUEL MANAGEMENT" WHICH HAS CAUSED THE PROBLEM. THIS WAS ALSO RECOMMENDED AS GM HAS NOT ALTERED ANYTHING ENGINEERING WISE TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING ON A BRAND NEW MOTOR THAT WOULD BE PURCHASED FROM THEM. *TR
IN JULY, 2012 THE DASH IN MY TRUCK CRACKED AROUND THE AIRBAG. I CONTACTED GM WHERE THEY TOLD ME IT WAS MY FAULT AND CLEANING PRODUCTS CAUSED IT. THEY WOULD ONLY COVER THE COST OF THE PART, BUT NOT LABOR WHICH WAS MORE THAN THE COST OF THE PRODUCT. I REFUSED TELLING THEM IT WAS THEIR ISSUE AS THERE ARE LOTS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT IT. IT WAS LATER PROVEN THAT CLEANING PRODUCTS DO NOT CAUSE THE CRACKS. I ASKED GM AGAIN TO REPLACE THE DASH AFTER SEEING PEOPLE HAVE BEEN INJURED FROM PIECES OF THE DASH AFTER AN ACCIDENT. GM STILL CLAIMS THERE IS NO SAFETY ISSUES WITH THE DASH. THAT HAS BEEN PROVEN FALSE AND THERE ARE 10S OF THOUSANDS OF THESE TRUCKS WITH THE ISSUE.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
