THE DASHBOARD HAS A CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WHERE THE AIRBAG CUTOUT IS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED THERE WILL BE PICTURES OF DASH BOARD SHARDS FIYING THROUGH THE AIR AND POSSIBLY INTO THE OCCUPANTS WITH FORCE FROM THE AIRBAG.
PAINT IS CHIPPING AND PEELING ALONG UPPER WINDSHIELD. THERE HAVE BEEN NO ROCKS OR HAIL OR ANY OTHER REASON FOR THIS TO HAPPEN. A FLAKE CAME OFF ONE DAY AND AS TIME WENT BY I BEGAN TO NOTICE MORE AREAS. UPON A GOOGLE SEARCH OF CHEVY FORUMS I FIND THAT THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON ISSUE, RIGHT DOWN TO THE SPECIFIC YEAR/MAKE/MODEL AND AREA OF DAMAGE.
TWICE I HAVE ENCOUNTERED UN-COMMANDED RAPID ACCELERATION WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 45MPH. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE ACCELERATION BACK UNDER CONTROL BY PRESSING AND HOLDING THE BRAKES. IT HAS HAPPENED IN THE SAME LOCATION, I'M GUESSING IT IS SOME SORT OF RADIO SIGNAL INTERFERENCE.
CLUTCHES IN TRANSMISSION WHERE WHEN TRUCK IN DRIVE THE TRUCK WILL NOT GO TO 40 OR ABOVE. THE TRUCK WAS MOVING ON CITY STREET HEAD TOWARD 95 NORTH. AS A RESULT OF PROBLEM I HAD TO USE AAA TO GET BACK TO BALTIMORE FROM FREDERICKBURG VA THIS IS THE SECOND TIMES SINCE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN MY NAME THAT THIS PROBLEM HAPPEN. THE FIRST TIME WAS JULY 26 2016 WHERE THE DEALERSHIP REPAIR (UNDER WARRANTY) THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM SEEM VERY IMMATURE DUE AGE OF TRUCK AND LESS THAN 65000 MILES

SAFETY BELTS ARE NOT LOCKING WHEN BREAKS ARE APPLY ON A STOP LIGHT, OR DURING A SUDDEN STOP. ALL FOUR SAFETY BELTS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. BEING THIS A SAFETY ISSUE, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THERE IS A RECALL TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.
RIGHT REAR EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE CAME LOOSE, RARELY USE BACK DOORS WENT TO OPEN ONE DAY AND IT WAS LOOSE. THEN THE DRIVERS DOOR HANDLE BROKE A FEW MONTHS LATER.
MY DASH CRACKED STRAIGHT LINE ABOVE AND ATTACHED TO AIRBAG, WASN'T THERE, NEXT DAY IT WAS,NOV 2016 38,000 MI. CALLED DEALERSHIP(S) AND I CALLED GM/CHEV SUPPORT AND THEY SAID SINCE IT WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND THERE WAS NO RECALL I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT...I EXPRESSED MY CONCERNS AS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND OBVIOUS DEFECT.

THE WIPES STARRED WHILE DRIVING GOING SLOW AND WOULD JUST STOP. WHICH AFTER TALKING TO CAR SPECIALIST WAS TOLD IT WAS TGE MOTOR HAD HONE BAD. THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 90K ON IT SHOULD THIS HAPPEN SO SOON? THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS TO SUDDENLY HAPPEN WITH NO WARNING OR INDICATION THE MOTOR WAS GOING BAD. MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON HIGHWAY AND IN CITY A 30 TO 40 MINUTES AWAY FROM HOME.
PAINT HAS CONTINUED TO CHIP OFF THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE IN LARGE SECTIONS. THE BODY SHOPS HAVE COMMENTED THAT THEY HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS ISSUES INVOLVING CHEVROLET PAINT. CHEVROLET KNOWS THE PRIMER UNDER THE PAINT IS DEFECTIVE. CHEVROLET HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE.
CRACK DASHBOARD BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I OWN THIS TRUCK FROM DAY 1 AND ALWAYS HAD TINTED WINDOW AND USE WINDSHIELD SUN SHADE.
I TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY DASH, I PUT A BLANKET OVER IT AND A SUN VISOR TO PROTECT IT FROM THE SUN. YET, IT STILL MANAGED TO GET A CRACK. I BELIEVE IT MIGHT BE DUE TO GM USING CHEAP MATERIAL OR OVER TIGHTENING THE DASH. THIS HAD TO HAPPEN ON A VERY HOT DAY WHEN MY TRUCK WAS PARKED.
MY 2013 CHEVY SILVERADO HAS AN AIR CONDITIONING PROBLEM. SO DID MY OLD TRUCK, A 2010, WHICH I TEASED IN FOR THE 2013. I HAVE RAN ACROSS MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS IF THIS ON THE CHEVY'S ON GOOGLE AND YOUTUBE. I ONLY HAVE 21,000 MILES ON THIS 2013. GM SHOULD REPLACE THE PART(S) TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. I HAVE NO PROBLEM TRADING IT IN FOR ANOTHER MAKE OF A DIFFERENT TRUCK. I LOVE WHERE THE HIGHS CAN BE 100 DEGREES EASILY, NOT GOOD IF THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS! THE AC BLOWS WARM. I'M NOT PAYING $1000.00 FOR THE FIX THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN DONE BY GM IN THE FIRST PLACE!! I BOUGHT THIS USED VEHICLE IN NOV 2017.
THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BLINKS OFF AND ON,TRACTION AND STABILITY GOES OFF THEN BACK ON ,ENGINE RUNS AND IDLES ROUGH AND SOMETIMES SHIFTS HARD.THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING AND SITTING STILL (FOR THE LIGHTS AND ROUGH IDLE) NOT THE HARD SHIFTING. WHILE SEARCHING ON INTERNET ,FOUND IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 5.3L CHEVY/GMC ENGINE.

ENGINE USES 3 QUARTS OIL BETWEEN REQUIRED OIL CHANGES. #2 PROBLEM 4WD SWITCH IF I USE AUTO 4WD . 4WD DOES NOT ENGAGE AND WONT SWITCH OUT OF AUTO .I WAS TOLD AT DEALER SHIP JUST DON'T USE AUTO 4WD IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN A PROBLEM
DASHBOARD CRACK ON THE LEFT-HAND SIDE OF PASSENGER AIRBAG. AND DASHBOARD RATTLES ON DRIVER-SIDE. VERY CONCERNED IF IN AN ACCIDENT THE DASHBOARD WILL SEND PROJECTILES BECAUSE IT'S SO CLOSE TO AIRBAG.

"TAKATA RECALL" THE DASH IS CRACKED ON THE WINDSHIELD SIDE AROUND THE AIR BAG AND MAY CAUSE THE AIR BAG TO DEPLOY. ALSO HAS TWO CRACKS ON BOTH SIDE OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WIITCH LEAVING IT MORE REASON TO DEPLOY.
WHILE AT LOW SPEEDS, USUALLY DURING A PARKING LOT MANEUVER TYPE CONDITION... MY TRUCK'S ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SEEMS TO SHUT DOWN SEVERAL TIMES FOR LIKE A SECOND OR TWO AT A TIME. BUT IT HAPPENS RAPIDLY. LLKE 4 TO 5 TIMES WITHIN 10 SECONDS. DUE TO THE ELECTRONIC STEERING NOT OPERATING WHEN IT DOES THIS, IT WILL BOUNCE THE STEERING SPORADICALLY WHEN IT CUTS ON/OFF AND KIND OF SCARE YOU. AT THE SAME TIME THE SAD LIGHTS FLICKER AND THE DOOR LOCKS LOCK AND UNLOCK RAPIDLY. EVEN AS A VETERAN DRIVER, IT ALL HAPPENS SO FAST THAT YOU CANNOT REGAIN CONTROL EASILY. WHEN I STOP, TURN THE TRUCK OFF THEN RESTART IT, IT'S BEEN OK. THIS HAS ONLY HAPPENED 3 TIMES. BUT IT CLEARLY SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION SYSTEM SHUTTING ON/OFF REALLY FAST.
CRACKED DASHBOARD NEAR AIRBAG.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.
AFTER TAKING A 780 MILE ROUND TRIP TO MISSOURI FROM TEXAS, WHEN FILLING UP I NOTICED THAT THE PAINT HAD PEELED OFF IN LARGE CHUNKS AT THE HOOD AND ROOF. HAS SEVERAL SMALL AREAS THAT THE PAINT IS CHIPPING. IT LOOKS AS IF THE PAINT WILL NOT ADHERE TO THE BODY ANYMORE.
TAKATA RECALL.MY PROBLEM IS I GET A WARNING ON THE DASH. SAYS CHECK AIRBAG. IS THAT BAD
DEALERSHIP DOES NOT HAVE NEW AIR BAGS TO REPLACE DUE TO TAKATA HAS NOT COME UP WITH A RESOLUTION.
GOT IN MY TRUCK ONE MORNING AND NOTICED TWO LARGE CRACKS IN MY DASHBOARD. VEHICLE HAD BEEN STATIONARY AND IN THE GARAGE THE NIGHT PRIOR. ONE RIGHT ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ON THE DRIVER SIDE, RUNNING ALL THE WAY TO THE WINDSHIELD. THE OTHER IS ADJACENT TO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I'M AFRAID THAT IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS IT COULD SEND PLASTIC SHARDS FLYING, WHICH COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.
UPON WIPING MY DASHBOARD WITH A DRY CLOTH(NEVER USED ANY PRODUCTS TO CLEAN, OR TREAT THE DASHBOARD AREA) AND I DO NOT PARK VECHILE IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT .... I NOTICED 4 TO 5 CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD AREA OF BOTH DRIVERS SIDE AND PASSENGERS SIDE...MOST CONCERNING... THAT 2 OF THE CRACKS ARE AROUND THE PASSANGER AIR BAG LOCATED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD...THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AS A CONSUMER OF GM AND A CHEVY SILVERADO WHO PURCHASED A VECHILE THATS PRICED ABOVE $45,000. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN VERY SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING THE LOCATION OF THESE CRACKS AND SHOULD BE A RECALL BY GM CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES.....
WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WE HEARD A POPPING NOISE FROM FRONT OF CABIN . THEN SAW TWO CRACKS IN THE DASH. ONE AT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AND THE OTHER ON DRIVER SIDE AT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

THE DASH BOARD CRACKED RIGHT ABOVE THE AIRBAG ON TH PASSENGER SIDE IN THE DRIVEWAY PARK OUTSIDE THE HOUSE
DASHBOARD IS CRACKING ALL ARROUND AIRBAG, IF AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY IT WOULD SPRAY PLASTIC PARTS ALL OVER VEHICLE, IT IS A PART DEFECT AND CHEVROLET KNOWS THIS, THEY WILL DO NOTHING TO ADDRESS THIS , THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE ON FACEBOOK SHOWING 1000S OF PICTURES , PLEASE HELP, THIS VEHICLE IS NOT THAT OLD AND THE CRACKS STARTED TO APPEAR AT JUST 37,000 MILES,ALSO IF YOU DECIDE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND PAY FOR IT YOURSELF , THEY WILL NOT GUARANTEE THE NEW FACTORY DASH WILL NOT DO IT AGAIN, THIS JUST PROVES THAT THEY KNOW IT IS MADE DEFECTIVE, HOPEFULLY SOMETHING WILL BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SPRAYED WITH FLYING DEFECTIVE PARTS ARROUND THE AIRBAG
CRACKED DASH BOARD
I WAS DRIVING & HEARD A VERY LOUD NOISE BUT DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS TILL I WAS CLEANING/VACUUMING MY VEHICLE THE NEXT DAY. I WAS CLEANING THE VEHICLE & THE DASHBOARD WAS VERY DIRTY SO I WAS LIGHTLY CLEANING IT WITH A RAG & THE RAG GOT STUCK SO WHEN I CHECKED WHAT IT WAS I NOTICED A VERY BIG CRACK. IT ALSO CRACKED BY THE AIRBAG & I HONESTLY FEEL LIKE THAT IS A HAZARD. IT BOTHERS ME TO THINK I'M PAYING OVER $40K FOR A VEHICLE THAT I CHOSE TO DEFEND MY FAMILY & MIGHT MALFUNCTION IF I'M EVER IN AN ACCIDENT.
RADIO VOLUME AND TURN SIGNAL SOUND STOPPED EVEN RADIO ON. WHEN TURNED COMPLETELY OFF, PHONE SYMBOL STARTED FLASHING ON RADIO SCREEN AND STAYED ON. SECURITY ALERTS FOR SEAT BELT, DOOR OPEN AND KEY IN IGNITION ALSO NOT WORKING. HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN FIRST STARTED AND PROBLEM AS CONTINUED WHILE DRIVING. WHEN TURNED OFF THE RADIO DISPLAY WILL NOT GO OFF EVEN THOUGH TURNED OFF. DEALERSHIP HAS NO CLUE WHAT'S WRONG. SAW ONLINE WHERE 2014 SILVERADO RECALLED FOR BASE RADIO PROBLEMS THAT ARE SIMILAR TO THIS PROBLEM (14V301000).
MY DASH HAS CRACKED IN 2 SPOTS. MY TRUCK IS ALWAYS PARKED IN A PARKING GARAGE AND IS WELL TAKEN CARE OF. IT ALSO HAS A RATTLE IN THE DASH.
DASHBOARD HAS STARTED CRACKING AROUND MY PASSENGER AIRBAG, LEAVING SHARP EDGES THAT I FEEL MAY DAMAGE THE AIRBAG UPON DEPLOYMENT.
BACKUP LIGHTS WERE STUCK ON. HAD TRUCK RUNNING AND PUT TRUCK IN REVERSE. THE FUSE BLOCK UNDER THE HOOD STARTING BURNING. THE TRUCK KEPT RUNNING EVEN AFTER TURNING OFF THE SWITCH AND REMOVING THE KEY. HAD TO ACTUALLY PULL THE FUSE BLOCK OUT OF THE TRUCK TO GET IT TO TURN OFF AND STOP IT FROM BURNING. SITTING AT LOCAL DEALERSHIP NOW WAITING TO HEAR FROM THEM. SHOULD HAVE TAKEN PICTURES.
WIPERS RUN VERY SLOWLY AND SOMETIMES STOP. THIS CAN BE DANGEROUS WHEN IT'S RAINING AND HAS CAUSED ME TO STOP DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWO OTHER TIMES. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. I'VE READ THIS MAY MAKE THE WIPER MOTOR WORK HARDER WHICH COULD LEAD TO A FIRE.
MY DASH HAS CRACK IN IT ,ON TOP OF PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG( THAT SHOULD AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE! THE OTHER CRACK IS ON THE DRIVER SIDE!!!
PAINT IS PEELING ON ROOF. HAS BEEN FOR WELL OVER A YEAR. GM DEALER SAID IT WAS FROM A STONE BRUISE, AND I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY PERIOD. PEELING ABOVE WINDSHIELD IS FROM DRIVERS SIDE ALL THE WAY TO PASSENGER'S SIDE. HOOD IS NOW STARTING TO PEEL.
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.
