2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 complaints

Transmission failure. At 140,000 miles, metal flakes in the pan. This could cause an accident and I've done some research and found multiple people with this same issue between 2012 and 2016. Also, a transmission shouldn't be needing to change at this amount of miles. Also, I bought this vehicle used with this problem.

The automatic shifting gears from v4 to v8 is causing a hard shift, now the vehicle will not go into v4 at all

Chassis framework has corrosion including perforation of major frame parts near rear wheels and under the fuel tank. Vehicle has only 70,000 miles and has been well taken care of including regular winter weather washings with underbody wash package. This is a known problem and should have been addressed similar to Toyota truck frame problems. Now I have a like-new appearing vehicle which has been well maintained however the chassis frame is now unsafe and in need of repair. This problem should be addressed up to and including frame replacement.

My truck is a 2014 with only 53,000 miles on it. I bought it used in 2016. (it was still under factory warranty) When I tried to get my truck inspected last month the shop told me the frame had holes and cracks in it, was not safe to drive and needed repaired/replaced. I did some research and found SB 19-NA-255 regarding my truck. This issue seems to be a wide spread issue with that truck. I took it to the Chevrolet dealer I bought the truck from (WOOD Chevrolet in Carroltown, PA) to ask about the bulletin. They called their GM rep and he told them there was nothing they (GM or the dealer) could do about it. This is a known safety issue and I believe GM should take care of the repairs. Right now I had a vehicle that is not safe to drive, has very low miles and is not safe to drive.

The cable that attaches the driver seat belt to the base of the seat broke while I was sitting in the vehicle driving. Truck has been well cared for and this seems like a major safety issue since the seatbelt has been ineffective for who knows how long at this point. Online recall tool indicates I have 0 open recalls too. Thank you!

Service trailer brake system keeps coming on along with a ding ding ding. I don't even use this.

Check engine light came on and the code was cylinder 7 misfire 'code p0307'. it was replaced the first time and only lasted less than two months. the same code came up again and when they put a new one in they had to tow it back because it failed not even 30 minutes later.

The frame on my truck is completely rusted out. There isn't a spot of rust anywhere else on my truck. I know there is knowledge of a wax coating problem. Why isn't this being fixed? I called GM corporate office and no one could tell me anything. They acted like they had no idea what was going on. I also tried my local dealership.... I left a message over a week ago and no one has called me back. What is going to be done about this issue?? I know others that have the same issue and no one is telling us anything.

Significant corrosion / rust on frame that compromises vehicle safety by weakening the frame. An independent service provider identified large rust hole in frame and multiple areas of significant corrosion. Vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer however there are service bulletins for this year, make, and model to correct the manufacturer-identified failed corrosion/rust prevention coating system for this year, make, and model. Specifically General Motors Service Bulletin 19-NA-255. Holes affecting integrity of frame were first discovered in December 2023; subsequent holes and areas of significant corrosions (ie, soft spots) in the structural frame have been identified.

I was merging on to the expressway and my truck kept going to the left into traffic towards a concrete median. I turned my wheel to the right to try to avoid it and started to spin out and went back to the right side of the expressway which was four lanes wide and slammed into the guardrail. After the wreck I noticed my ABS light was on I’m not sure if it came on as I was merging onto the expressway.

Electronic power steering assist malfunction and failure. The power steering went out as i was driving with my girlfriend in the truck and it has been stuck on the side of the road in ocean city new jersey.

I have a 2014 Chevy Silverado that just got a broken seatbelt driver side tension rod. This was serviced in 2016 due recall and closed with just a plate put in place. Now because the rod may have been compromise it finally gave out and the tension rod completely snapped off and my seatbelt is broken and unsafe. I called dealer that performed repair said they couldn’t do anything I called gm/chevy and said it’s normal wear and tear that doesn’t seam correct to me. There’s an issue with it and it shouldn’t snap off while driving I shouldn’t have to pay out of pocket for a know defect that was not properly corrected and was just preformed a quick fix that didn’t solve the issue.

Hi, I had all my side curtain airbags deploy in my truck without any accident and under normal driving conditions. The fronts did not deploy. I had no warning lights or airbag light prior to this event. I spoke with my insurance and they wanted to have my truck inspected. I took it to my local GM dealer. They inspected my truck and looked at the data from the airbag system and determined that they found no reason for why they should've gone off. The force from the airbag was such that I was in a daze and did not know what was going on. If this would've happened on the freeway during heavy traffic I am certain I would not have stayed in my lane and caused a very serious crash involving other vehicles. Lucky this was not the case and there were no cars close to me. The next morning when I woke up I had severe neck pain and an impaired memory. I went into urgent care to get looked at. They performed an x-ray and said it was okay and that it was just severe whiplash.

I am having issues with the steering. I keep getting a message about the stabilitrak on my truck and when I drive it the power steering just stops and I have to gain control of my truck. I would think that this should be a safety recall. Please assist with looking into this for me please.

The 6L80 is known for there bad parts and going out. The transmissions are braking down on accout of poor craftsmanship and cheap parts. Plus my truck is shutting off and back on while driving which caused me to rear-end another truck and not one air bag deployed and it pushed the other trucks bumper all the way under his tail gate and my front bumper has enough damage that the airbags should've went off

Purchased the vehicle yesterday, I had it inspected and the service tech informed me the brake booster was not performing correctly. He said instead of going down as a brake the brake is snapped back to where it is not stopping and it can go completely out to where it will not stop. He informed me of a recall on the brake booster. The local GM Dealer checked for the recall and stated the recall had been fulfilled by the previous owner. There's still a problem with the brake booster.

I have a 2014 chevy silverado that I purchased brand new from the dealer. The truck just hit 100,000 miles and recently had a clunking noise from the rear undercarriage. After having it inspected, it has come to my attention that the frame is rusted and rear crossmembers are rusted out causing the rear shock mount to break, and I'm not sure if the frame is salvageable. After doing some research, I found a recall for my year silverado for the undercoating on the frame(not properly done from the factory) but my VIN is not in the recall. I'm at a loss being the year of the vehicle and mileage on the truck considering it might be undeliverable and unfixable

Was driving through the cities, when all of a sudden the brakes in my vehicle were suddenly not working. Being in heavy traffic doing 40mph, I veered off to the side of the road avoiding an accident. I exited the vehicle and inspected underneath for any broken/leaky brake lines. I then checked to see that I still had brake fluid. Everything seemed to be fine. There was no warning or indication with sound that the brakes were out or going bad. After entering the vehicle again the "service brakes" warning popped up on the dash. I called and had the vehicle taken to a shop. The auto shop stated that the vacuum pump was not working and also recommended to replace the brake booster pipe with the pressure switch.

The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 188,000.

Trailer Brake driver display notification and alert tone frequently activated with no apparent cause with or without a trailer connected. Alert is so repetitive it becomes an audible and visual distraction to the driver. Manufacturer design restricted code readers at Auto Zone or O’Reilly’s from identifying this problem and force owners to take vehicles to GM shops to identify the cause. The alerts and cause should be repaired under recall at no expense to the owner. I also have video to support.

Not related to my vehicle: Even in my truck, the frequency of oncoming and rear vehicle headlight blinding is of great concern. I have noticed that the problem occurs more often with modified pickups of heavy duty pickups. One simple correction could be to limit the absolute height of any driving headlamps. Additionally, in an effort to improve driver visibility by focusing the beams to a concentrated area of view, vs the old heads where the lights failed at the edges of the field of view has greatly contributed to the problem.

I have a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, covered by multiple Technical Service Bulletins regarding issues with premature frame rust due to a manufacturing issue. During the Factory Warranty Period, Chevrolet did not acknowledge or repair the issues noted in the TSBs. A 10 year old truck, with 81k miles on it is no longer safe to operate due to extensive damage to the frame from Chevrolet failing to fulfill their own commitments in resolving this issue. There has been no abuse or failures by myself as the owner that would result in the current unsafe condition. Due to this being an extremely widespread and known issue, this must be further investigated and upgraded to a full recall. Without a full on recall, unsafe vehicles will continue to be utilized on roadways, causing safety concerns to owners, passengers, and others on the roadway. Chevrolet has just refused to repair the damage due to the expiration of the factory warranty period. The vehicle was in possession of Chevrolet several times during the warranty period, but the resolution and repair was not completed. Per the TSB, this was to be completed and Chevrolet acknowledged the issue. Since not all dealerships have the ability or willingness to address this concern, Chevrolet must be put as the responsible party through a recall to rectify this, allowing owners to drive safe vehicles.

Power steering is going out then comes back every so often. It tells me service power steering drove with care. I have had it checked and they shops computer won’t let them into the power steering window. The engine is reading no codes, however power steering continues to go in and out. I seen a recall on some of the year models but it says mine is not. However I am having that exact problem.

I bought this vehicle used, in February of 2019. Everything about the vehicle was checked and in very good shape. Approximately a year ago, early 2023, I was told that a bit of coating had come off the frame and was beginning to rust excessively. In January of this year during a dealership visit for repairs I was shown an area of the frame that looked like hunks of rust had fallen of, and then I was told this will turn into a major problem. My most recent visit, on March 21, 2024, I was again informed about the frame rust and was shown not only the rust problem, but large cracks in the frame that could not be repaired and is a major safety issue. I find it hard to believe a ten year old vehicle with 89455 miles can be beyond repair without this being a manufactures issue !

My brakes do not compress all the way at low RPMs and prevent me from being able to stop. Consistent with other vehicles we called for the same issue on the same year but for some reason my VIN doesn't come up in the recall

I am the owner of a 10 year old Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with less than 82000 miles. Chevrolet has Service Bulletins out regarding frame rust, but I was unable to have a dealership repair the surface rust for the 7 years I have owned the truck. My frame is now rusted out to the point it is not safe to operate and will cost over $15000 for Chevrolet to repair since the Service Bulletin was not resolved during the visits to dealerships for service during the Factory Warranty Period. My truck has never been abused. As Chevrolet stated in [XXX] , this may be a result of a manufacturing issue. This issue is beyond a cosmetic issue and does affect the safety of the vehicle, the driver, passengers, property, and people around. This issue is not isolated to me and my truck, but many others. Thanks to this not being looked at as a safety concern I am now left without a safe method of transportation. Frame rust and deterioration needs to be upgraded to a recall, just as Toyota. The frame build is similar so has the same results. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Don't get gears skipping gear

The entire frame has disintegrated. Not repairable, and GMC will not fix it even though this was a problem.

This truck has rust and giant holes in the frame, I'm not even sure if its safe to drive. I see that Chevy doesn't want to claim ownership of the manufacturing mistake. I can't even sell this truck because it would never pass a safety inspection. Chevy needs to be held accountable and do a recall to those of us who are stuck with the vehicles and fix their mistake. I don't even think a dealer would be able to accept as a trade in. I see other posts here that trade ins were refused due to the frame damage. YOUR AGENCY NEEDS TO DO ANOTHER OR FIRST INVESTIGATION REGARDING THIS SAFETY PROBLEM!!!

The contact's grandson owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while his grandson was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost power steering functionality. The contact stated that the steering wheel seized, and the vehicle was almost impossible to steer. The contact's grandson was driving on a busy highway when the failure occurred. The contact stated that the vehicle had been previously repaired at the dealer under NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V414000 (Steering) however the failure had occurred. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was unknown.

I was driving with my kids in the truck because i just did school pick up i was aproaching a four way interection when i tried to stop and my break pedal was super stiff and found myself panicked i couldnt stop it almost caused an accident with a tractor trailer truck. I went up and over the curb into vacant parking lot in order to stop.

Brakes won’t work at low speeds, says online it was a recall at one point just don’t know if my VIN got missed

Brought truck into dealer for trade in. Dealer refused to offer trade due to excessive rusting of the frame. Dealer informed me that this situation has been prevalent in Chevy trucks due to negligence during the manufacturing process. Truck body and engine are in good condition. only 120000 miles. After leaving dealership researched this problem on line and now see that there are numerous consumers that have suffered the same fate. This is totally unacceptable and GM should do something about this to compensate their customers. GM apparently failed to treat the steel frame properly during manufacturing causing the steel to deteriorate prematurely.
