OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438 OR GMC AT 1-866-996-9463.

Defect. ON CERTAIN CREW CAB PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE 2ND ROW CENTER OCCUPANT SEAT BELT ROUTING MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO POSITION THE LAP PORTION OF THE SAFETY BELT LOW AROUND THE HIPS OF OCCUPANTS, ESPECIALLY SMALLER OCCUPANTS, SEATED IN THIS POSITION. APPROPRIATE USE OF A CHILD SEAT OR BOOSTER SEAT, AS RECOMMENDED FOR SMALL CHILDREN, DOES IMPROVE THE FIT CONDITION FOR THIS USER GROUP. IN ADDITION TO INSTRUCTIONS ON PROPER INFANT AND YOUNG CHILD RESTRAINT (WITH CHILD SEATS OR BOOSTERS), SPECIAL VERBIAGE FOR RESTRAINING OLDER CHILD IS INCLUDED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. ALSO, THE SUGGESTED SEAT BELT FIT/ROUTING FOR ADULTS, IRRESPECTIVE OF SEATING POSITION, IS DESCRIBED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL TEXT.

Risk. A LAP PORTION OF THE SEAT BELT ROUTING THAT IS NOT LOW AND SNUG ON THE HIPS CAN ALLOW THE LAP BELT TO RIDE UP ON AN OCCUPANT'S ABDOMEN INSTEAD OF FITTING LOW AROUND THEIR HIPBONES, AND THEREFORE, CAN EXPOSE THEM TO MORE RISK OF ABDOMINAL AND INTERNAL ORGAN INJURY.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL CUT OPEN THE GUIDE LOOP, REMOVE A PORTION OF THE LOOP, AND THEN THE REMAINING TWO SIDES SHOULD BE FOLDED OVER AND SECURED WITH A RETAINER FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JULY 21, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CADILLAC AT 1-866-982-2339, CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, OR HUMMER AT 1-800-732-5493.

Defect. CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 102, "TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER SEQUENCE, STARTER INTERLOCK AND TRANSMISSION BRAKING EFFECT." UNDER CERTAIN VEHICLE STARTING CONDITIONS, THE SHIFT LEVER POSITION INDICATOR LOCATED IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER MAY NOT ILLUMINATE. IF THE SHIFT LEVER POSITION INDICATOR DOES NOT ILLUMINATE, THE DRIVER MAY NOT KNOW WHICH GEAR THE VEHICLE IS IN.

Risk. THE VEHICLE MAY MOVE IN AN UNINTENDED DIRECTION RESULTING IN POSSIBLE INJURY TO OTHERS OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL REPROGRAM THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 14, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CADILLAC AT 1-866-982-2339, CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, AND GMC AT 1-866-996-9463.

Defect. CERTAIN TRUCKS, SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, AND VANS EQUIPPED WITH BOSCH HYDRO-BOOST BRAKE ASSEMBLIES, THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE BOOSTER PRESSURE ACCUMULATOR MAY CRACK AND SEPARATE FROM THE HYDRO-BOOST ASSEMBLY DURING NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS.

Risk. IF A SEPARATION OCCURRED AND THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE WERE OPEN, FRAGMENTS FROM THE ACCUMULATOR COULD CAUSE INJURY TO PEOPLE IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA. THE PRESENCE OF THIS CRACK OR FRACTURED SURFACE COULD ALLOW THE HYDRAULIC FLUID TO LEAK FROM THE ACCUMULATOR CIRCUIT OF THE BOOSTER ASSEMBLY. THE LOSS OF FLUID WOULD CAUSE INCREASED STEERING AND BRAKING EFFORT AND A CRASH MAY OCCUR WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL TEST THE HYDRO-BOOST ASSEMBLY FOR FUNCTIONAL OPERATION OF THE TWO-FUNCTION VALVE. IF THE HYDRO-BOOST ASSEMBLY FAILS THE TEST, DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE ASSEMBLY FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON MARCH 23, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC TRUCKS AT 1-866-996-9463 AND HUMMER AT 1-800-732-5493.

Defect. ON CERTAIN TRUCKS, THE BOLT THAT ATTACHES THE INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT TO THE STEERING GEAR MAY NOT MEET SPECIFICATION. THE BOLT MAY FRACTURE RESULTING IN THE LOSS OF STEERING.

Risk. IF THIS HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING, A CRASH COULD OCCUR WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT BOLT FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JANUARY 24, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT GMC AT 1-866-996-9463 AND CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438.

Defect. ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES AND PICKUP TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH 5.3L (RPO L59) V8 ENGINES, THE ENGINE FUEL RAIL CROSSOVER TUBE RETAINER SCREWS WERE NOT MANUFACTURED TO SPECIFICATIONS AND MAY BREAK.

Risk. IF THE TUBE RETAINER SCREW BREAKS, FUEL COULD LEAK FROM THE FUEL RAIL CROSSOVER JOINT, THE ENGINE MAY STALL AND, IF AN IGNITION SOURCE WERE PRESENT, AN ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE COULD OCCUR.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FUEL RAIL CROSSOVER TUBE AND, IF NECESSARY, REPLACE THE RETAINER SCREWS. OWNERS WERE NOTIFIED BY TELEPHONE ON JULY 30, 2004, WITH A FOLLOWUP OWNER LETTER BEGAN AUGUST 5, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438 OR GMC AT 1-866-996-9463.

The contact owns a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 50 mph, he lost control of the vehicle due to losing consciousness. The vehicle left the roadway and went airborne and crashed with a road sign landing in a field. None of the airbags deployed and only the seatbelt lap belt tensioned not the shoulder strap. The contact sustained injuries such as several lacerations across the face and inside the mouth, and broken L1 vertebrae. The contact mentioned he fractured the steering wheel with his face during the impact. A police report was filed and the vehicle was towed to a local lot then towed again to the contacts insurance lot where it was awaiting a diagnosis. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 281,000.

THE VEHICLES BRAKES ARE CORRODING AND FAILED ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT ON 2/09/2016 WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION (AT THE INTERSECTION OF IL ROUTE 34 AND WOLFS CROSSING)

PEDAL GOES ON DOWN WHEN PRESSED -- SEEMS LIKE ABS ISN'T WORKING PROPERLY

BREAK LINES CORRODED THROUGH TO FAILURE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED JUST AFTER EXITING A HIGHWAY. ABS ENGAGED DUE TO ICY CONDITIONS THE NEXT TIME I DEPRESSED THE BREAK PEDDLE IT WENT TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT THE BREAKS ENGAGING. TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE NO WARNING LIGHT WAS PRESENT ON THE DASHBOARD. THE BREAKS FAILED WHILE DRIVING AND RESULTED IN ME RUNNING A RED LIGHT. LUCKILY IT WAS EARLY IN THE MORNING AND NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER SET ON LEVEL FIVE, THE BLOWER INTERMITTENTLY CLICKED OFF AND ON. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT A BURNING SMELL EMITTED THROUGH THE VENTS OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS UNTIL LEVEL FIVE AND FOUR SETTINGS NO LONGER WORKED. THE CONTACT INSPECTED THE CONNECTOR SW/POWER ST ADJUSTER AND DISCOVERED THAT THE WIRES WERE MELTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE CONNECTOR AND RESISTOR FOR THE AIR CONDITIONER AND HEATER AND THE RESISTOR FOR THE HEATER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,000.

SITTING AT BURGER KING DRIVE THRU WHEN BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. BRAKE LINES HAD RUPTURED DUE TO CORROSION. VEHICLE ONLY 10 YEARS OLD AND 130,000 MILES. HAD BRAKES CHECKED OFTEN AT SERVICE CENTERS, NO MENTION OF PROBLEM. GLAD THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN LAST MONTH WHEN I WAS BARRELING DOWN THE TENNESSEE HIGHWAY WITH A FULL LOAD IN THE BACK OF MY TRUCK. NHTSA AND GM SHOULD BE ASHAMED FOR ALLOWING THIS TO CONTINUE. I AM SURE PEOPLE ARE DYING DUE TO THIS NEGLIGENCE AND FAULTY MATERIALS BEING USED.

SUDDEN LOSS OF BRAKING POWER DUE TO BRAKE LINE RUPTURE WHILE ON THE EXIT RAMP OF THE FREEWAY. FOUND BRAKE LINES COMPLETELY RUSTED AND THEY WERE PAPER THIN IN MULTIPLE SPOTS. WILL HAVE TO REPLACE ALL BRAKE LINES ON THE VEHICLE. ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. NOTE THAT VEHICLE HAS ALWAYS BEEN MAINTAINED BY DEALERSHIP.

THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR WHEN OUR FRIEND TRIED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. A BRAKE LINE RUNNING ON TOP OF THE FRAME BEHIND THE RADIATOR HAD COMPLETELY RUSTED THRU, ALLOWING ALL OF THE BRAKE FLUID TO PUMP OUT OF THE SYSTEM. ALL OF THE STEEL BRAKE LINES ARE EXTREMELY RUSTY AND PROBABLY NEAR FAILURE.

THESE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS THE BRAKES ARE SHAKING WHEN I GO TO STOP. I HAVE C HANGED THE FRONT CALIPERS SINCE THIS IS WHERE IT IS HAPPENING SINCE THE CALIPERS WENT BAD SO DID THE ROTERS AN PADS SO THOSE NEEDED TO BE CHANGED ALSO...WHICH IS MONEY I DON'T HAVE .....IT WORKED FOR A TOTAL OF 4 DAYS THEN PROBLEM BEGAN AGAIN. PLEASE INFORM ME OF OTHER ISSUES AND WHAT CAN BE DONE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM ESPECIALLY SINCE I DRIVE THIS TRUCK TO EARN A LIVING FOR MY FAMILY EVERYDAY.. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 70 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT NOTICED THERE WAS A ENGINE LEAK AND NOTICED THAT A FEW BOLTS THAT HOLD THE EXHAUST PIPE WERE MISSING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE CONTACT HAD TO TAKE THE VEHICLE OUT OF GEAR IN ORDER TO STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE LINES WERE CORRODED AS A RESULT THE PRESSURE OF THE BRAKE FLUID CAUSED THE LINES TO FRACTURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 107,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

ANOTHER DRIVER NOTIFIED US THAT OUR BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING. WE STOPPED TO CHECK THE SITUATION AND MY WIFE APPLIED THE BRAKES AS I CHECKED THE LIGHTS, WHICH WERE NOT WORKING. I THEN MOVED THE TRUCK ABOUT 50 YARDS AND AS I APPLIED THE BRAKES THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. WHEN I GOT OUT THERE WAS A PUDDLE OF BRAKE FLUID ON THE GROUND. THE BRAKE LINE HAD RUSTED OUT AND WHEN I APPLIED PRESSURE TO STOP, IT GAVE OUT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A NEARBY DEALER AND THEY REPLACED ALL THE BRAKE LINES DUE TO THE RUST. TOTAL COST $1050. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. LUCKILY I WAS STOPPED WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED AND NO ONE WAS INJURED. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED WHILE MOVING IN TRAFFIC THE RESULT COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUS.

DASH LIGHTS GO OUT WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD HAVE TO PUSH ON DASHBOARD TO MAKE THEM COME BACK CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY BE A FIRE HAZARD

BRAKE LINE BROKE. BRAKE LINES ARE SEVERELY CORRODED. I LOST MY BRAKES WHILE DRIVING. THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. *TR

SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT READ ACCURATE. IT EITHER READS 15 MPH AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, OR GOES WAY HIGH SUCH AS 120 MPH AT 55 TO 60 MPH. SOMETIMES AT THE HIGHER READING, IT WILL READ 60 MPH WHEN VEHICLE IS STOPPED, IN PARK, AND IGNITION OFF. I WAS TOLD THIS IS A STEPPING MOTOR BUT HARD TO CHANGE AND EXPENSIVE TO CHANGE. I HAVE READ THAT THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THAT WAS NEVER BROUGHT UP. *TR

FRAME IS ROTTED,WONT PASS INSPECTION,BRAKE LINES ARE ALSO ROTTED HAD TO REPLACE TWICE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE SPEEDOMETER REMAINED AT 120 MPH AND FAILED TO PROVIDE AN ACCURATE READING. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 113,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. WHILE HAVING REGULAR MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE BRAKE LINES WERE RUSTED. THE BRAKE LINES WERE NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

BACKING-UP INTO MY GARAGE IN REVERSE MODE, PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WENT RIGHT TO THE FLOOR. *TR

THE BRAKE LINES ARE VERY RUSTED AND I AM VERY CONCERNED THIS CAN LEAD TO A SERIOUS INJURY FOR MYSELF OR OTHERS. I KNOW OF MANY OTHER OWNERS OF SIMILAR MODEL TRUCKS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A VERY REAL SAFETY THREAT AND GM SHOULD REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY AS THIS IS A SERIOUS DEFECT. *TR

SRS WARNING CAME ON. HAD FAULT CODE. CALLED CHEVY DEALER AND THEY SAID I WOULD NEED A NEW AIRBAG. I RESEARCHED AND FOUND THAT GM DOES KNOW ABOUT THIS AND EVEN PUT OUT A TSB. IT IS A CONNECTOR TO THE AIRBAG ITSELF LOCATED IN THE LEFT KICK PANEL. THE FIX IS TO CLEAN THE CONNECTOR OR REPLACE IT. NO NEW AIRBAG IS NEEDED BUT IT DID REOCCUR ABOUT A YEAR LATER. RECLEANED AND OK AGAIN. THIS IS A SAFETY ITEM AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. SINCE GM KNEW IT I MUST ASSUME THAT NHTSA KNEW IT ALSO. I CAN SEE WHERE A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD NOT FIX THIS AND JUST DRIVE LIKE THIS SINCE A LOT OF TECHNICIANS THINK YOU NEED A NEW AIRBAG WHEN IT IS IN FACT POOR WIRING BY GM. *TR

SEVERE CORROSION AFFECTED BRAKE LINE. PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I WENT THROUGH INTERSECTION. USING MY E-BRAKE I WAS FORTUNATE TO STOP AND NOT HIT ANYTHING. I FEAR IF MY 16 YEAR OLD SON, OR MY WIFE WOULD NOT OF FARED SO WELL IN THIS SITUATION. NOW I HAD TO ABSORB A 800.00 REPAIR FOR NEW BRAKE LINES. NOW 1.5 YEARS LATER I NEED TO REPLACE FUEL LINES AS WELL AS TRANSMISSION LINES DUE TO CORROSION. MY 16 YEAR OLD DRIVES THIS PIECE OF JUNK, AND NOW THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH FUEL LINES. FIRE!!! NOW NEED TO INCUR ADDITIONAL REPAIRS. WHY NO RECALL? THIS IS A LAWSUIT IN THE MAKING IF THERE WERE TO BE AN ACCIDENT DUE TO GM'S IRRESPONSIBILITY. I WILL NEVER BUY A GM PRODUCT AGAIN. NEED A RECALL... [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATLEY 35 MPH, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THERE WAS A SCREECHING NOISE. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO DECELERATE AND THE CONTACT HAD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14E036000 (SERVICE BRAKE, AIR). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED COMPLETELY AND NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ONCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DEEMED THE VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS DUE TO NUMEROUS ISSUES THAT COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,187.

TRAVELING THROUGH INTERSECTION AND MAKING LEFT HAND TURN TO GO IN EAST DIRECTION. MY VEHICLE'S BRAKES CATASTROPHICALLY FAILED. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT ALL(!) THE BRAKES LINES WERE RUSTED THROUGH AND THAT MY BRAKE FLUID LEAKED OUT. AND NOW ALL OF THE BRAKE LINES WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. NOT ONE, NOT TWO - ALL! THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT AND NO INDICATION OF ANY PROBLEMS PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT. THE ONLY THING WORSE THAN A GM PRODUCT WITH A FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH WOULD SEEM TO BE A GM TRUCK THAT CAN'T STOP!

WHEN I GOT IN THE TRUCK TO GO TO WORK, AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ALONG WITH THE DIC NOTIFICATION WHERE ON. WITH A OSB II READER, GOT A CODE OR "B0104 FRONT RIGHT SENOR REPLACE". REPLACED THE SENOR AT OWNERS EXPENSE. WITH NEW PART INSTALLED THE WARNING LIGHT AND DIC MESSAGE CLEARED. *TR

DURING SHOWING THE VEHICLE FOR RESALE, THE BRAKE LINES BROKE AND LEAKED AND THERE WAS NO BRAKING POWER TO STOP VEHICLE. FORTUNATELY THIS TOOK PLACE IN A PARKING LOT THEREFORE WE WERE ABLE TO CONTROL THE SITUATION. HOWEVER WE WERE ABOUT TO ENTER A MAJOR ROADWAY AT 5PM RUSH WEEKDAY RUSH HOUR WHERE A POTENTIAL SERIOUS ACCIDENT COULD HAVE OCCURRED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET SILVERADO. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL EXTENDED TO THE FLOOR AND THE BRAKES FAILED. AFTER INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT BRAKE FLUID WAS LEAKING FROM THE DRIVER SIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT ALL THE BRAKE LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,737.

FOR NO APPARENT REASON, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTS ON VEHICLE CAME ON WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR REPAIR AND REPAIR SHOP SAID THE FRONT SENSORS FOR NO APPARENT REASON HAD GONE DEFECTIVE DISABLING THE AIR BAGS ON VEHICLE. SENSORS HAD TO BE REPLACED AND I WAS TOLD PARTS WERE ONLY AVAILABLE FROM A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. AFTER REPAIR I CHECKED ONLINE AND FOUND NUMEROUS OTHER OWNERS OF CHEVROLET VEHICLES HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM CONCERNED WITH THE SAFETY ISSUE OF DISABLED AIR BAGS WHEN THIS PART GOES DEFECTIVE FOR NO REASON. *TR

BRAKE ROTORS ARE DEEPLY PITTED--NOT FROM RUST--WAS UNAWARE OF THE CONDITION UNTIL I REPLACED BRAKE PADS @84000 MILES. *TR

I BEGAN TO HAVE TROUBLE WITH MY LIGHT BULBS. WHEN I TRIED TO CHANGE BULB I FOUND EVIDENCE OF POOR CONNECTION WITH THE PLASTIC OF THE BULB AND OF THE SOCKET SOMEWHAT BURNED. THE FILAMENTS OF THE BULBS WERE OK. A FRIEND OF MINE ADVISED ME TO COAT THE CONNECTION WITH SILICONE GREASE. RECENTLY A VIRGINIA STATE TROOPER STOPPED ME FOR TWO BULBS NOT FUNCTIONING. SAME PROBLEM. LUCKILY HE WAITED WHILE I REMOVED THE ASSEMBLY AND, YES, THE BULBS WERE FINE BUT NOT MAKING GOOD CONTACT. HE EXPLAINED THAT HE ALSO HAS A CHEVROLET TRUCK AND HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. A FORMER EMPLOYEE OF GM IN AIKEN GA TOLD ME THAT GM WAS SUPPOSED TO APPLY THIS GREASE TO ELECTRICAL CONTACTS BUT FAILED TO DO SO. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM OR THE TROOPER WOULD NOT HAVE STOPPED ME! *TR

SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE 2007, WHEN VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. HAS BEEN TO BOB GRIMM CHEVROLET IN MORTON, IL FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM APPROX 9 TIMES. I NO LONGER LIVE IN THE VICINITY OF THIS DEALER, AND WOULDN'T WANT THEM WORKING ON IT AGAIN SINCE THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO REPAIR MULTIPLE TIMES. WRITTEN COMMUNICATION TO GM ALL THE WAY UP TO CEO HAS NOT RESOLVED THIS ISSUE. JACK SCHMITT CHEVROLET IN O'FALLON, IL DID A DIAGNOSTIC AND REPORTED THE AIR BAG IN MY VEHICLE IS USED. NOBODY HAS EVER WORKED ON THE TRUCK REGARDING THE AIR BAG EXCEPT BOB GRIMM CHEVROLET. MY UNDERSTANDING IS WHEN THIS LIGHT IS ON, THE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY, ENDANGERING MY LIFE. *TR

WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT I NOTICED THAT I HAD TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR IN ORDER TO KEEP THE TRUCK FROM ROLLING FORWARD. WHEN I GOT TO A FRIENDS HOUSE I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS FLUID LEAKING FROM SOME RUSTED BRAKE LINES LOCATED ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE TRUCK. AS I PRESSED THE BRAKES FLUID WAS RUNNING OUT AT AN ACCELERATED PACE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT ALL OF THE BRAKE LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO RUSTING. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT RUSTED BRAKE LINES ON FULL SIZE GM TRUCKS. I CONTACTED GM BUT THEY SAID THAT THIS IS NO RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE AND THE REPAIR IS GOING TO COST ME NEARLY $1800. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK BRAND NEW IN 2005 AND ITS A LITTLE DISTURBING THAT SOMETHING LIKE THAT WOULD FAIL THAT WAY WHERE ALL OF THE BRAKE LINES WERE RUSTED ONLY AFTER 9.5 YEARS. IF THEY WOULD HAVE BROKE SUDDENLY THEY COULD HAVE CAUSE ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE FACT THAT I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT WHEN ON, WAS TOLD AIR BAGS AND SAFETY PRODUCTS WOULD NOT WORK UNLESS FIXED,$500.00 LATER DONE 2YRS LATER 08/22/14 LIGHT IS ON AGAIN?? 30,000 MORE MILES? I NEVER OFF ROAD AND KEEP MY STUFF VERY NICE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO COME TO A STOP. THE BRAKES BEGAN TO SLOW THE TRUCK THEN THE PEDAL WENT CLEAR TO THE FLOOR AND ALL BRAKING ACTION WAS LOST. THIS CAUSED ME TO STRIKE THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. AFTERWARDS I OBSERVED BRAKE FLUID DRIPPING FROM THE LINES FORWARD OF THE REAR AXLE AND NEAR THE FIREWALL AREA. I WAS VERY LUCKY TO ESCAPE INJURY TO MYSELF AND THE OTHER DRIVER THAT I STRUCK. MY TRUCK SUSTAINED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN ESTIMATES FOR REPAIRS YET. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING THE "SERVICE AIR BAG" WARNING APPEARED IN THE INFORMATION CENTER OF THE DASH AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT STARTED TO BLINK. THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THE WARNING LIGHT. I RE-SET THE INFORMATION CENTER AND THE WARNING REAPPEARED. VERY DISAPPOINTING AS THERE ARE ONLY 64,537 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. I CHECKED ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM FOR MY VEHICLE, AS THE MILES ARE VERY LOW ON MY VEHICLE. OF COURSE THERE WAS NONE FOR MY VEHICLE. IT APPEARS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH GM VEHICLES AND AN EXTRA EXPENSE TO THE OWNERS. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED AT THIS POINT. I COULD NOT LOCATE ANY RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE VIN, BUT THERE WERE OTHER RECALLS INVOLVING THE AIR BAGS WITH OTHER GM VEHICLES. I'M LOST FOR WORDS. *TR

DRIVING TO WORK , CAR STOPS IN FRT OF ME AN BRAKES WENT TO FLOOR , DROVE AROUND ON SHOULDER BARELY MISSED HITTING CAR . BRAKE LINES RUSTED SO BAD THEY FAILED , IVE HAD TRUCKS AN CARS ALL MY LIFE AN HAVE NEVER SEEN LINES ON A VEHICLE THIS BAD . SHOULD BE A RECALL ON ALL CHEVYS OF THIS YEAR. *TR

I WAS ENTERING MY DRIVEWAY AND BEGAN TO BRAKE GOING DOWNHILL, THE BRAKE PEDAL SUDDEN "WENT TO THE FLOOR" (BRAKE LINE HAD RUPTURED DUE TO CORROSION). AFTER TAKING TRUCK TO MECHANIC, I LEARNED ALL MY BRAKE LINES WERE SERVERELY CORRODED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED - FUEL LINES AS WELL. REPAIRS TOTALED $2185. I OWNED SEVERAL OTHER MAKE PICKUPS, DRIVEN UNDER THE SAME CONDITIONS AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANY PROBLEM WITH EITHER BRAKE OR FUEL LINES. *TR

THE DASHBOARD CLUSTER WENT OUT, SPEED ODOMETER STUCK ON 60MPH. HAD TO RACE MOTOR UP UNTIL IT RED LINE RETURNED TO 0. THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL BOARD STOPPED WORKING, FOUND OUT WAS A RECALL BUT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. SPOKE TO AUTRY MORLAN DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES. WE PAID OUT OF POCKET TO HAVE REPLACED AND THAT CLUSTER HAS DONE SAME THING. STILL NO RECALL ON OUR TRUCK. WILL COST ANOTHER 200-300 TO FIX OUT OF POCKET. GAS GAUGE DOES NOT WORK, SPEED ODOMETER DOES NOT WORK. RPM WILL WORK AND THAT IS HOW WE JUDGE OUR SPEED ON TRUCK. *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON. *TR

TURNED KEY ON AND LIGHT SAYING SERVICE AIRBAG CAME ON. LOCAL MECHANIC SAID HE READ THAT THERE WAS GOING TO BE A RECALL ON IT. *TR

BRAKES LINES POPPED A LEAK BELOW THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR,WHICH SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. I HAVE NEVER HAD BRAKES FAIL AFTER ONLY 9 YEARS AND ONLY 31,942 MILES. WE PURCHASED THE TRUCK NEW ON 8-4-2005. I HAVE A FORD CAR THAT IS A 2000 MODEL YEAR,AND THE LINES STILL LOOK GOOD. WE HAD 2 OTHER FORD CARS IN THE PAST THAT HAD NEARLY 200,000 MILES WHEN WE GOT RID OF THEM,AND THEY STILL HAD THE SAME BRAKES LINES,WHICH LOOKED GOOD FOR BEING NEARLY 15 YEARS OLD EACH. I KNOW THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ROUTINE MAINTENANCE ISSUE, BUT GM APPARENTLY PUT POOR QUALITY LINES ON VARIOUS VEHICLES. WE RARELY DRIVE IT ON SALTY ROADS IN THE WINTER,AND WHEN WE DO,WE REGULARLY DO A UNDERCARRIAGE WASH,WHICH WASN'T AVAILABLE WHEN WE HAD THE 2 PREVIOUS FORD CARS. IT IS VERY OBVIOUS THE LINES PUT ON THESE VEHICLES ARE JUNK. THEY PUT ON A EXHAUST THAT IS SUPPOSED TO LAST THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE,BUT PUT ON INFERIOR BRAKE LINES WHICH ARE A SAFETY ISSUE,GO FIGURE. AFTER SEEING HOW GM STONEWALLED AND BRUSHED OFF THE IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE,AND NOW THIS BRAKE LINE ISSUE,ALL I CAN SAY IS I'M GOING BACK TO A FORD. I ALWAYS DO PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE,BUT THESE BRAKE LINES CAUGHT ME WAY OFF GUARD. I HAVE DONE A LOT OF BRAKE LINES OVER THE YEARS BUT NONE THIS SOON. I AM GOING TO ADVERTISE THIS TO ANY GM OWNER TO CHECK SEE IF THEY HAVE CRAPPY BRAKE LINES. *TR

TRUCK FRAME RUSTED SO BADLY VEHICLE CAN'T BE INSPECTED WITHOUT REPLACING FRAME. REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS MOUNTED ON CROSS-MEMBERS THAT ARE ENTIRELY RUSTED THROUGH. SAME FRAME DESIGN ON 2014 TRUCKS OF SAME MODEL. BODY IS STILL GOOD, BUT INSPECTION WILL EXPIRE AT END OF SEPT. 2014 AND THIS 9 YEAR OLD TRUCK WITH 76,000 ORIGINAL MILES WILL BE UNABLE TO BE PUT ON THE ROAD WITHOUT FRAME REPLACEMENT. PRETTY SAD WHEN '87 CHEVY'S ARE STILL ON THE ROAD AND THIS PIECE OF RUST IS ONLY GOOD FOR LOOKING AT. *TR

ALL BRAKE LINES ARE CORRODED. BRAKES FAILED WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE IN TRAFFIC. ALL BRAKE HARD LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING AT APPROX 30 MPH, BRAKES WERE APPLIED IN ANTICIPATION OF A RED LIGHT. THE BRAKE PEDAL HESITATED, THEN WENT TO THE FLOOR. VEHICLE WAS STOPPED UTILIZING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, THE BRAKES RUPTURED DUE TO SEVERE RUST. CURRENTLY BEING REPAIRED AT THE DEALER. *TR

BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR AS I PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVE.. SO AS I LOOKED TO SEE WHAT IT WAS, 1 BRAKE LINE WAS LEAKING DUE TO CORROSION AN SPLIT. ANOTHER LINE CLOSE TO SPLITTING. ALL 4 RUSTED BAD. *JS
