Risk. If the brake pedal becomes loose or inoperative, the driver may be unable to stop the vehicle by using the brake pedal. Additionally, a loose pedal may also interfere with the accelerator pedal. Either condition may increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy. GM will notify owners, and dealers will add adhesive to the nut and reinstall the nut with increased tightness, free of charge. The recall began October 3, 2018.

Air Bags
Filed Oct 12, 2026MT
On 9/20/2026 all of the roof-rail (side-curtain) airbag inflators spontaneously ruptured and deployed with explosive force while the vehicle was stationary. The event was triggered solely by shutting the vehicle's driver’s side door hard. There was absolutely no collision, impact, or external force applied to the vehicle that would justify a normal airbag deployment. The inflator body split tearing through the interior headliner. This identical failure mechanism matches existing GM safety campaigns (such as NHTSA Campaign 21V504000) concerning roof-rail airbag inflators suffering from internal manufacturing corrosion and thermal cycling stress. My local Chevrolet/GMC dealership ran my 17-digit VIN and stated that my specific truck is currently omitted from the active recall batches. When the physical rupture was presented to them, the dealership refused to honor a remedy, improperly citing the vehicle's age and mileage. Because this structural manufacturing defect poses an extreme risk of severe injury or shrapnel deployment to occupants in an un-crashed vehicle, I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this VIN omission and compel General Motors to expand their recall parameters to cover this vehicle.

My pickup truck has a Duramax diesel engine with a CP4 diesel injection pump. That pump has not failed yet in my truck. However it has been known to fail in numerous other GM vehicles with Duramax engines and when it does fail the engine comes to a complete stop and cannot be restarted. This is a potentially hazardous even fatal situation. Repair if the pump fails is very expensive - $12,000 to $14,000 in some cases. I would like GM to replace the injection pump at my dealership to ensure this known failure does not occur. My pickup truck is otherwise in excellent condition.

I purchased this 2015 pickup as a preowned vehicle in March of 2022. Only a few months later and 2,000 miles, the service trailer brake system warning chime activated over and over again. This happened randomly without any apparent pattern. It happened primarily when no trailer was connected. It has continued to get worse and more frequent. When it starts to chime the message and chime doesn’t just come on once it chimes over and over again for entire drives lasting hours. This problem has gotten worse by becoming more frequent. This is so bad that it is very distracting to me as the driver. It takes my attention off the road and not only that it causes me a headache from the constant annoying chime. This is very unsafe whether towing or not. It is even more dangerous when towing a vehicle as it is unknown if the trailer brake system will work in any moment of need. This malfunction can endanger the lives of people on the road.

Per a report from Car Complaints, the lawsuit alleges that 2011- through 2016-model-year Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups equipped with the 6.6L V8 LML turbodiesel Duramax engine are equipped with defective Bosch CP4 fuel pumps that are more fragile and prone to wear than previous CP3 fuel pumps. According to plaintiffs, the defective CP4 pumps can be destroyed by U.S. diesel fuel, which is allegedly “drier” than diesel fuel in other countries. The lawsuit alleges that U.S. diesel fuel does not provide adequate lubrication for the CP4 fuel pump. The lack of lubrication can lead to internal fuel pump damage and result in metal shavings that damage the pump, the fuel system, and the GM Duramax engine as well. This damage can lead to the truck stalling and losing power, and may require the vehicle to be towed to a shop, leaving customers with big repair bills. The lawsuit goes on to allege that GM was aware that the Duramax engines and related fuel pumps were defective prior to selling affected vehicles, but declined to notify customers. Rather, GM allegedly concealed that the defective CP4 pumps may be destroyed by U.S. diesel fuel.

In 2017 the truck started making a slight ticking sound from the engine so I asked the mechanic about it when I got the oil changed and he said it was a valve problem the GM had no fix for yet. Over time the ticking got louder so I took it back to the dealership last year and the noise as it turns out was from the exhaust manifold bolts breaking off and the exhaust is leaking into the cab. I contacted GM and could not get them to pay for the repairs. After doing an internet search I found out that this is an ongoing problem with these trucks. This is a safety issue and GM needs to fix the problem. Nhtsa made GM do a recall on the 2019 Buick Enclave because of a possible exhaust leak under the floor and I believe GM should be forced to do a recall on these trucks considering the exhaust fumes are coming out directly in front of the drivers compartment.

The Stabilitrak message came on and then my PRNDML indicator disappeared. I could not get the truck to go into any gear besides neutral and drive. I had to shut the truck off, wait then restart it. This happened when I was trying to back the truck up into my driveway and I was almost hit by another vehicle. The technician at Young chevrolet said my TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WAS BAD, from my own research of online forums and social media pages, there are numerous others with the same exact problem. Others have gone months to almost a year without their trucks back on the road and GMC and Chevrolet do not have a replacement part, nor can they make any repairs to this module.

CP4 failure, caused metal fragments to go throughout fuel system and tank. Entire fuel system had to be replaced and tank cleaned out. CP4 failed in the middle of my drive home, stalling the truck in the middle of an intersection. Luckily had enough momentum to roll and pull over to the side of the road.

Driving 70 on interstate 15 and the stabilitrak message came on the dash, truck went into limp mode, the truck went from 70 mph to 45 mph really fast. This was during rush hour traffic and I could have gotten in a wreck. This is a transmission control module and GM and Chevrolet DO NOT HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PART. It’s on a nationwide back order

Fuel pump failure while driving highway speed 70mph pulling a trailer. Engine light came on and engine went to limp mode for a few seconds then completely shut down without warning while still going at least 60. Lost power steering and power brakes. Service center confirmed the code for "low fuel rail pressure" and did the repair. I have retained the CP4 pump for analysis. I was very lucky to not crash my truck.

While pulling my camper trailer the brake controller failed. It would turn on an alarm (visually) and ring an audio alarm. Every time it would come on, I would stop on the highway and recheck the trailer connection and that was Ok. Every time that I get this alarm, I have no trailer brakes. This has happened for the last 3 years. This happens at any speed and in any road conditions and weather. My trailer is 9000# and without brakes it could be dangerous to stop. especially in an emergency situation. My dealer says it can't find anything wrong with the truck. I went on line to find some solutions to the problem and found out that this is quite common. People were saying that we should report this, so here it is. I have replaced the plug on the trailer and the truck with no luck. The dealer is presently replacing the TRAILER BRAKE MODULE. Thats about $1000. I think it should be fixed for free.

Seat Belts
Filed Nov 9, 2022CA
The rear seatbelts retract very slowly and now most of the time not at all. Along with that they only intermittently catch when I pull hard and quick, like when in an accident. These 2 issues with the seatbelts pose a huge safety risk and I cannot put my daughter in the back seat.
Complaints 1-50 of 179, newest first, reproduced as filed.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
