GMC TRUCK BRAKE PEDAL WILL BECOME VERY STIFF AND DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS AT LOW SPEEDS AFTER BRAKES ARE HOT (DRIVING THROUGH MOUNTAINS). THIS APPEARS TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE GM BRAKE BOOSTER ISSUES THAT APPEAR ONLINE.

ON NUMEROUS OCCASION THE VEHICLES INTIERIOR AUDIO CHIMES DO NO ALERT IF DOORS ARE OPEN, SEATBELTS ARE FASTENED, OR BLINKERS ARE WORKING. IN 2014 THE GENERAL MOTORS RECALL NUMBER 14315 ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE BUT GM STATES MY VIN NUMBER DOES NOT INCLUDED THE VEHICLES AFFECTED EVEN THOUGH ITS EXACTLY AS THEY DESCRIBE IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN IN 2014. THEY WANT ME TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR DESPITE IT BEING A SAFETY ISSUE AND A RECALL THEY ADDRESSED IN THE PAST.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONER WAS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SUNRISE BUICK GMC COVINGTON PIKE (LOCATED AT 1800 COVINGTON PIKE, MEMPHIS, TN 38128, (901) 201-6267) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CONDENSER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

A/C CONDENSER IS LEAKING, AND HAS IN EVERY GMC THAT I HAVE SEEN. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE DIFFERENTLY. THE CONDENSER JUST STARTED LEAKING.

TOUCHSCREEN INTERFACE WILL RANDOMLY SELECT AND CHANGE SETTINGS ANYTHING FROM A RADIO STATION TO PASSIVE LOCK SAFETY SETTINGS. THIS WILL HAPPEN WHENEVER THERE IS A KEY IN THE IGNITION AND THE SCREEN IS ACTIVE. HAPPENS ALL THE TIME AND IS REPEATABLE. TOUCHSCREEN CONTROLS MOST SETTINGS FOR THE VEHICLE.

PURCHASED TRUCK NEW 37 MONTHS AGO, HAS 938 HOURS ON THE ENGINE AND 47500 MOSTLY HIGHWAY MILES. NO ACCIDENTS. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER THERE IS A SMALL LEAK IN THE RADIATOR, TOP RIGHT SIDE(FROM THE DRIVER'S SEAT), COST TO REPAIR $1200.

THE RACK AND PINION ON THE TRUCK HAS STARTED TO CLICK AND POP. WHEN I TOOK THE TRUCK IN THEY DEALER SAID THAT THE STEARING GEAR IN THE RACK AND PINION HAVE STARTED TO FAILED. THE TRUCK ONLY HAD 33,000 MILES ON IT WHEN IT STARTED TO GO BAD. IVE LOOKED INTO THIS AND IT SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH MANY MORE GM TRUCK OWNERS. THIS HAPPENS ANYTIME YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL.

LOW SPEED BREAKING PEDAL HARD VEHICLE WILL NOT STOP CAN HEAR CLICKING NOISE CONDITION WORST WHILE IN REVERSE ALMOST CAUSED 3 ACCIDENTS CONTACTED DEALER THEY SAY THEY KNOW OF THE PROBLEM AND COST TO FIX IS AROUND $1000 IF THIS IS SUCH A COMMON ISSUE LIKE MY DEALER SAID WHY DO I NEED TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE THAT GM KNOWS ABOUT. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN ON GOING FOR OVER A YEAR WITH MY TRUCK.

THE BRAKE TURN HARD WHEN I AM GOING IN REVERSE IN A SLOW SPEED.

WHILE BACKING UP. BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND WAS UNABLE TO STOP. MANAGED TO GET IT TO STOP. I HAVE HEARD ABOUT A BRAKE BOOSTER ISSUES.

BRAKE PEDAL STIFF/HARD WHEN APPLYING BREAKS. PROBLEM OCCURS PERIODICALLY WITHIN THE CITY AND HIGHWAY.

BRAKES DO NOT WORK WHEN IN REVERSE OR AT LOW SPEEDS. PROBLEM WAS THERE THE DAY I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. A COUPLE WEEKS AFTER PURCHASE I BACKED INTO VEHICLE IN A PARKING LOT. I WAS TOLD IT WAS "NORMAL" AFTER ALMOST HAVING A WRECK I DID SOME RESEARCH. HOW IS THIS NOT NATIONALLY ADVERTISED AS A RECALL YET? THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY NEGLIGENCE ON GMC'S PART. THE VACUUM PUMP IS KNOWN TO FAIL BY EVERY DEALER I HAVE CALLED. ALSO EVERYONE I KNOW WHO HAS THE SAME MODEL TRUCK ALSO LIVES WITH THIS PROBLEM.

WHEN THE TRUCK'S VACUUM PUMP FAILS, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES VERY HARD TO PUSH. THE TRUCK DOES NOT STOP AT LOW SPEED WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED, I WAS BACKING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT CHRISTMAS TREE STAND. I NEARLY BACKED INTO THE TENT AND PERSONS LOADING THE CHRISTMAS TREE IN THE TRUCK. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED, I WAS PARKING MY TRUCK IN DRIVEWAY. I ROLLED ABOUT 6' TO 8' BEFORE STOPPING. I NEARLY HIT MY HOUSE. GM ISSUES A "SPECIAL WARRANTY" BUT THEY REFUSE TO COVER THE REPAIRS BECAUSE OF THE VEHICLE MILEAGE. THIS SAME ISSUE IS WELL DOCUMENTED BY OTHER GM TRUCK OWNERS FOR 2014 TO 2018 MODEL YEARS.

I ONLY HAVE 57,000 MILES ON MY TRUCK, WHICH IS WHY I AM REPORTING THIS. THE TRUCK TURNS OFF COMPLETELY. I HAVE BEEN GOING TO MAKE A RIGHT/LEFT TURN AND THE TRUCK SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY. I HAVE NO POWER STEERING AND LIMITED BRAKES. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE NOW. I AM LUCKY ENOUGH THAT I AM STRONG ENOUGH TO TURN THE TRUCK WITHOUT POWER STEERING OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE HIT VEHICLES BOTH TIMES THIS HAPPENED. THERE HAS TO BE SOME TYPE OF ELECTRICAL FLAW THAT IS MAKING THIS HAPPEN. I WANT TO GET THIS RESOLVED BEFORE MY INSURANCE COMPANY HAS TO GET INVOLVED BECAUSE I AM IN A CAR ACCIDENT. IF THIS IS SOMETHING THE MANUFACTURER TAKES CARE OF THAT WOULD BE GREAT, OTHERWISE I WOULD JUST LIKE TO KNOW IF SOMEONE ELSE HAS HAD THIS ISSUE AND HAS FOUND THE RESOLUTION.

WHEN COMING TO A STOP THE BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD TO DEPRESS AND THE RATE OF DECELERATION CHAGES MAKES IT HARD TO JUSGE WHEN AND WHERE THE VEHICLE WILL END UP.

WHEN PUTTING THE TRUCK INTO GEAR WITH THE FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKES THE TRUCK WILL SLAM INTO GEAR CAUSING THE TRUCK TO JUMP FORWARDS OR BACKWARDS.

WHILE IN A DRIVE THROUGH I WAS CREEPING UP AND WHEN TRYING TO COME TO A STOP MY BRAKE PEDAL WOULD NOT DEPRESS ALL THE WAY AS NORMAL AND TOOK A LONGER THAN NORMAL TIME TO STOP EVEN WITH BOTH FEET PUSHING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. I ENDED UP ROLLING INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY AND WAS TOLD THAT MY VACUUM PUMP/BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

INTERMITTENTLY LOSING POWER STEERING. STABILITY TRACK LIGHT COMES ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON, HEADLIGHTS DIM WHEN APPLYING BRAKES.

WHEN YOU STEP ON THE BRAKES IN MOTION THE BRAKE PEDAL IS HARD AND VEHICLE TAKES LONGER TO STOP.

THE BRAKES PERIODICALLY DO NOT WORK AT LOW SPEEDS. THE BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD TO PUSH TO THE POINT YOU HAVE TO STAND ON THE BRAKES TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP. I HAVEN'T GOTTEN IN AN ACCIDENT YET BUT IT'S BEEN VERY CLOSE TWICE NOW WHERE I'VE ALMOST HIT A CAR IN FRONT OF ME AT A STOP SIGN.

HARD BRAKE PEDAL AT LOW SPEEDS ESPECIALLY WHILE TOWING OR TRAVELING ON INCLINES. BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES HARD TO DECOMPRESS WITHOUT WARNING AND VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO BE STOPPED.

A/C CONDENSER BAD. FREON LEAK.

WHEN I'M CRUISING HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE TRUCK GET A VIOLENT VIBRATION AND MAKES THE VEHICLE UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE.

MY 2015 GMC SIERRA FAILED TO STOP AT LOW SPEEDS TODAY. I AVOIDED THE COLLISION BY PULLING OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE PEDDLE WAS EXTREMELY HARD TO PUSH. I RECEIVED A NOTICE BY GMC THAT ITS THE VACCUM PUMP AND THEY WILL ONLY COVER THE WARRANTY UP TO 72K MILES. MY TRUCK HAS 72,560 MILES.

THE A/C WENT OUT. HAVE 36000 MILES THIS SHOULDN'T BE MESSING UP.

I HAVE A 2015 GMC SIERRA WITH 95,198 MILES ON IT. THE AC STARTED BLOWING HOT AIR WHEN I WAS DRIVING TO WORK. I PURCHASED AND INSTALLED AN AC REFILL KIT, WHICH ONLY LASTED A COUPLE OF HOURS. I TOOK MY TRUCK TO THE LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP TO DIAGNOSE PROBLEM. DEALERSHIP CALLED TO TELL ME THAT IT WOULD BE $800+ TO REPLACE AC CONDENSER. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION I DISCOVERED THAT FAULTY AC CONDENSERS, AND COMPRESSORS ARE VERY COMMON PROBLEMS IN CERTAIN GMC, CHEVY, AND CADILLAC VEHICLES. WHY ARE CONSUMERS STUCK PAYING OUT OF POCKET FOR KNOWN DEFECTS THAT ARE IN EXCESS OF $800?

2015 GMC SIERRA PAINT IS BLISTERING AND PEELING IN TRUCK BED. NEVER HAULED ANYTHING IN IT. GMC DEALERSHIP'S BODY SHOP SAID FACTORY PAINT DIDN'T STICK TO THE PRIMER. COMING OFF IN BIG PIECES. HAD TRUCK FOR 3 1/2 YEARS. CALLED GMC AND GMC SAID OUT OF WARRANTY.

2015 GMC SIERRA PAINT IS BLISTERING AND PEELING IN THE TRUCK BED. CONTACTED GMC THRU THEIR APP AND THE SAID TO TAKE TO THE DEALERSHIP BODY SHOP. THEY TOOK PICTURES AND SAID IT LOOKS LIKE THE PAINT WASN'T STICKING TO THE PRIMER. GMC SAID THE TRUCK WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. I COULD HAVE SOMEONE REPAINT IT AT MY OWN EXPENSE.

THE AIR CONDITIONING STARTED BLOWING HOT AIR WHILE MOVING. THE TRUCK IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD WITH 75000 MILES ON IT. IN DOING RESEARCH WE HAVE LEARNED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE GMC SIERRA'S AND IT NOT COVERED BY GM EVEN THOUGH IT APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS ALL SOUNDS FROM DOOR CHIME, RADIO, ONSTAR, ETC. HAVE FAILED. FURTHER THE PAINT IS BEGINNING TO BLISTER FROM UNDERNEATH. GM IS DENYING BOTH PROBLEMS EXIST. GM SAYS THE PAINT ISSUE IS DUE TO APPLICATION OF AN EXTREME HEAT SOURCE. ARIZONA IS HOT, BUT NOT THAT HOT. THE SOUND ISSUE IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE PAINT ISSUE IS TYPICAL CORPORATE DENIAL OF LEGITIMATE CLAIMS.

2015 GMC SIERRA 1500 AIR CONDITIONING HAS STOPPED WORKING. THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND GMC HAS ONLY ISSUED SPOTTY RECALLS FOR IT. MY TRUCK HAS 46,000 MILES AND NOW MY CHILDREN GET TO RIDE IN A HOT VEHICLE BECAUSE GM WILL NOT HELP WITH REPAIR.

AIR CONDITIONER BLOWS HOT AIR AS A RESULT OF LINE SYSTEM LEAK. AIR CONDITIONING FAILURE DO TO KNOWN TSB PIT5331. GMC HAS COVERED THIS ISSUE FOR LIKE SUV MODELS (ESCALADE, TAHOE, YUKON), BUT WANTS OVER $1,000 TO REPAIR GMC SIERRA 1500 AT GMC DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A FAULTY PRODUCT DESIGN THAT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM PER THEIR OWN SERVICE BULLETIN, AND ASSOCIATED HARNESS TO ENFORCE FAULTY AIR CONDITIONER UNIT DESIGN.

LIKE SO MANY OTHERS, MY TRUCK IS NOT VERY OLD AND HAS BEEN BLOWING HOT AIR FOR MONTHS. IT APPEARS TO BE THE SAME CONDENSER ISSUE AS REPORTED BY HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS MORE. AFTER DISCOVERING THIS IS CHRONIC ISSUE AND AC DELCO * DISCONTINUED THE ORIGINAL CONDENSER * ISSUED TSBS FOR THE CONDENSER WHICH INCLUDE A BRACKET TO HELP PREVENT THE ISSUE (TSB PIT5331 / OCT 2014) (TSB PIE0340 / MAY 2015) NEITHER OF THESE WERE EITHER APPLIED TO MY VEHICLE OR WERE NOT EFFECTIVE IN PREVENTING THE ISSUE. IT SEEMS OBVIOUS THAT THIS IS A DEFECT IN MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP BASED ON THEIR ISSUING OF THESE TSBS AND FAILURE TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES UNDER WARRANTY. THEY'VE APPARENTLY OPERATED A BLATANT "LET'S WAIT AND SEE" CAMPAIGN, HOPING THOSE OF US THAT DIDN'T CATCH THIS UNDER WARRANTY WILL FALL OUT OF WARRANTY AS I HAVE. SEVERAL LAW FIRMS HAVE INITIATED CLASS ACTION SUITS AGAINST GM IN REGARDS TO THIS, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE THAT'S A GOOD CHANCE TO GET LAWYERS RICH AND NOT GET MY TRUCK FIXED, OR GET A CHECK FOR $9.99... AS A SUMMARY - MY TRUCK BEGAN BLOWING WARM AIR LAST FALL, BUT I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE IT AS AN ISSUE AS THE WEATHER WAS ALSO TURNING COOL AND I WASN'T USING THE A/C. AC/DELCO AND GENERAL MOTORS KNOWS THIS IS CHRONIC AND AVOIDABLE ISSUE THE FAULTY PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED WHEN THE PRODUCTS FAIL UNDER WARRANTY NO EFFORT HAS BEEN MADE TO REPLACE THE KNOWINGLY FAULTY PARTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME STUCK WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO MARTIN CADILLAC (310-736-2266, LOCATED AT 12101 W OLYMPIC BLVD, LOS ANGELES, CA 90064). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ALSO RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V586000 (STEERING). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,699.

BRAKE VACUUM PUMP: WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY FIRM AND THE VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT TO STOP. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO MOVE WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL AND REQUIRED A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF EFFORT TO MAKE THE VEHICLE COME TO A STOP. IT WAS INTERMITTENT, BUT IT DID OCCUR SEVERAL TIMES ON THE DAY I FIRST NOTICED IT AND WAS OFTEN AT LOW SPEED. FORTUNATELY I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT WHEN THIS FIRST OCCURRED. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY AND HAD IT REPAIRED THAT DAY. THE DEALER WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND DETERMINED THE VACUUM PUMP TO BE DEFECTIVE AND REQUIRED TO BE REPLACED. ONCE REPLACING THE VACUUM PUMP, THE BRAKES PERFORMED AS EXPECTED. ATTACHED IS A COPY OF MY INVOICE WITH THE DEALER NARRATIVE DESCRIBING THE REPAIR.
