I HAD MY TRUCK'S ECM REPROGRAMMED LAST FRIDAY (1/17) DUE TO RECALL #14V007, AND EARLIER THIS EVENING (1/24) THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME IN AND THE DIC SHOWED AN "ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED" MESSAGE. THE ENGINE RAN VERY SLUGGISH AND I PARKED IT AS GM RECOMMENDED TO DO IN THEIR RECALL LETTER. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED NOW.

I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK BACK THE DEALERSHIP 8 TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM A VIBRATION THAT YOU CAN FEEL IN THE SEAT STEERING WHEEL AND GAS PEDAL, THEY HAVE HAD THE FACTORY ENGINEERS OUT THREE TIME AND LOOKED AND WORKED ON IT, FIRST TIME THE ENGINEER DID A COUPLE OF THINGS AND SAID THAT IT WAS UP TO FACTORY SPECS AND THAT WAS ALL HE COULD DO, I DROVE IT HOME AND BEFORE I WAS A BLOCK AWAY I COULD TELL THAT THEY DID NOT FIX IT, WHEN I GOT HOME I CALLED THE DEALER BACK AND TOLD HIM SO HE CALLED GM AND THE NEXT WEEK THEY SENT OUT THE SAME GUY AND THIS TIME HE WORKED ON 5 OR 6 OTHER THINGS THAT HE DID NOT WORK ON THE FIRST TIME AFTER TELLING ME THEY DID ALL THEY COULD DO THE FIRST TIME. RIGHT THERE TELLS YOU THEY ARE LYING IF THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO WHY COME BACK AND WORK ON IT AGAIN! BUT AFTER HE GOT DONE IT WAS JUST LIKE IT WAS, I WILL TRY TO LIST SOME OF THE STUFF THAT THEY SAID THEY DID, 1) ROTATED THE TIRES 2) RE-TORQUE THE WHEELS 3) BALANCED THE TIRES 4) BALANCED THE DRIVE SHAFT 5) SHIMMIED THE REAR END 6) CHECKED THE REAR SHOCKS 7) TOOK OFF DEALER INSTALLED MUD FLAPS! 8) CHECKED THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, I KNOW BUT THEY DID 9) ROAD FORCED TESTED THE TIRES TWICE AND REPLACED TWO THE SECOND TIME AND RE-BALANCED THE TIRES. AND I'M SURE I HAVE NOT LISTED ALL THEY HAVE TRIED, AND STILL I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, THIRD TIME THE ENGINEER CAME OUT HE HAD THE REGIONAL MANAGER WITH HIM AND THIS TIME THEY DROVE MY TRUCK AND 2 OTHERS THEY HAD ON THE LOT AND SAID THAT THEY ARE SIMILAR TO MINE AND THEY WAS NOT GOING TO DO ANY MORE TO MY TRUCK THAT THEY HAD DONE ALL THEY COULD OR WOULD DO BUT IF I HAD ANY OTHER PROBLEMS TO BRING IT BACK. *TR

I HAVE A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 CREW CAB. THE VEHICLE HAS A VIBRATION ABOVE 40 MPH SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW IN JULY 2013. I HAVE HAD IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 6 TIMES, OF 4 TIRES ON THE VEHICLE THEY HAVE REPLACE 5 TIRES. THE VEHICLE STILL HAS THE VIBRATION AND AT HIGH SPEEDS, THE VIBRATION INCREASES. *TR

12/13/2013

WHEN WE TOOK OUR NEW TRUCK FOR A TEST DRIVE WE NOTICED A VIBRATION. THE DEALERSHIP SUPPOSEDLY CHECKED IT OUT AND TOOK CARE OF IT. WHEN TOOK DELIVERY OF THE TRUCK AND DROVE IT HOME THE VIBRATION WAS BETTER AT A SLOWER SPEED BUT INCREASED AS THE SPEED INCREASED. WE RETURNED THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND SAID THAT THEY BALANCED THE TIRES AND ROTATED THE DRIVESHAFT 180 DEGREES. IT SEEM TO BE A LITTLE BETTER. BECAUSE WE TAKE THIS TRUCK TO FLORIDA FOR THE WINTER AND IT IS LOADED MY HUSBAND DECIDED THAT HE WOULD PUT SOME WEIGHT IN THE BACK OF IT TO SEE HOW IT WOULD AFFECT IT. THE VIBRATION WAS BETTER AT A SLOWER SPEED AND WORSE AT A HIGH SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY. THE TRUCK HAS NOW BEEN BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR A WEEK AND WE HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING IN REGARDS TO IT. THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING AN ELECTRONIC VIBRATION ANALYSIS ON IT. MY HUSBAND HAS RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET AND THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. HOPEFULLY PEOPLE ARE REGISTERING THEM ON YOUR WEBSITE. *TR

I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT BEHIND 2 OTHER VEHICLES. A VEHICLE FROM BEHIND STRUCK ME AT APPX 40 MPH AND RAMMED ME INTO VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE CAB OF MY TRUCK FILLED WITH A WHITE. "SMOKE". I WAS TOLD BY BOTH FIREMEN AND WRECKER DRIVER AIRBAGS HAD ACTIVATED BUT NOT DEPLOYED. MY WIFE WAS WITH ME. BOTH OUR SEATBELTS LOCKED UP AS THEY SHOULD. CONCERN IS HAD THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED IT MIGHT HAVE HELPED WITH BACK AND SHOULDER INJURY. MAYBE WE WOULD NOT HAVE BOUNCED AROUND AS MUCH. I NOTIFIED GMC AND THEY MADE A CASE FILE BUT AFTER A WEEK STILL HAVE NOT CONTACTED ME. EVEN AFTER NUMEROUS VOICE MESSAGES LEFT. *TR

MY SON AND I WERE DRIVING MY GMC SIERRA 2014 TO HIS FRIENDS HOUSE BEFORE WE CRASHED. MY SON WAS DRIVING AND HAS HIS LEARNER'S PERMIT, HOWEVER, HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR 4 MONTHS. AT A FORK IN THE ROAD I TOLD MY SON QUICKLY TO MAKE A RIGHT RATHER THAN LEFT AND WE CRASHED INTO AN IMPROPERLY GRATED WALL OF DIRT CAUSING THE TRUCK TO GO FROM 40 MPH TO 0 WITH MY SON HAVING HIS SEATBELT ON, BUT I DID NOT. NEITHER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND BOTH OF US SUSTAINED SERIOUS INJURIES. MY SON BROKE HIS NOSE AND I AM SUFFERING FROM A BROKEN NOSE, CONCUSSION AND A BURST VERTEBRAE. NEITHER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WHICH COULD'VE MADE A HUGE DIFFERENCE ON OUR INJURIES. *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS THE WORST HEADLIGHTS OF ANY NEW VEHICLE I'VE EVER OWNED. IT SEEMS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT, AND I AVOID IT WHERE I CAN. THE BEAM PATTERN IS AWFUL AND THE ILLUMINATION IS POOR. I'VE BEEN DRIVING CARS WITH PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS FOR YEARS, SO I KNOW THAT IS NOT THE REAL ISSUE. THESE LIGHTS ARE JUST POORLY DESIGNED OR CHEAP. TRIPS TO THE DEALER ARE UNFRUITFUL. THE DEALER KNOWS THEY ARE POOR, BUT CAN DO NOTHING EXCEPT BE SURE EVERYTHING IS PROPERLY ADJUSTED. IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT BUYING A 2014 GMC PICKUP, BUY SOMETHING ELSE. THEY ARE THAT BAD. I JUST KNOW I'M GOING TO HIT A DEER SOON ENOUGH. *TR

11/6/2014

THE HEADLIGHT PERFORMANCE ON THIS TRUCK IS THE WORST I'VE SEEN IN ANY VEHICLE, BUT FOR A TRUCK, I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY ARE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD AT NIGHT. THE OWNER'S MANUAL STATES THEY ARE FACTORY SET AND DO NOT NEED ADJUSTMENT. THAT INFORMATION WAS OBVIOUSLY NOT CHECKED DURING THE QUALITY CHECK OR CHECKED BUT FELT IT WAS AS GOOD AS IT GETS. ON HIGH BEAM, THE DRIVER'S SIDE LIGHT IS POINTING SO FAR UP, IT'S IN THE TREES AND ABOVE THE ROAD. THE RIGHT SIDE HIGH AND LOW BEAMS ARE INADEQUATE FOR ALL PURPOSES, ESPECIALLY SEEING AROUND CURVES AND TURNS. YOU ARE LITERALLY BLIND ON A DARK STREET, EVEN WITH THE FOG LIGHTS. VERY POOR ILLUMINATION OF THE ROAD. I'VE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALER FOR ADJUSTMENT AND THEY DID NOT CHANGE ANYTHING. THIS WILL BE THE LAST GM PRODUCT I BUY SINCE IT SEEMS THE LAST THREE VEHICLES I'VE OWNED HAD ISSUES THAT COULD NOT BE RESOLVED. AND I AM A MEMBER OF THE GM FAMILY. FOR THE PRICE OF THESE VEHICLES, THEY SHOULD BE TOP QUALITY. GM SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THE QUALITY THEY DELIVER TO CUSTOMERS FOR VEHICLES PRICED OVER $45K. *TR

I HAVE A 2014 GMC SIERRA SLT WITH POWER SEATS. THE DRIVER'S SEAT IS LOOSE (NOT THE SAME ISSUE THAT WAS RECENTLY RECALLED WITH MANUALLY RECLINING SEATS). WHEN YOU MAKE A SHARP TURN AT SPEED THE DRIVERS SEAT SLIDES LEFT OR RIGHT DEPENDING ON THE DIRECTION YOU ARE TURNING. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS IDENTICAL TO THIS ONE ON THE FORUMS ONLINE AND GM CLAIMS THEY HAVE NO SOLUTION AND TO SPEAK WITH THE LOCAL DEALER. MY LOCAL DEALER DOES NOT NOW KNOW WHAT TO DO AND SAYS THEY CANNOT FIX IT. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT! PLEASE HAVE GM FIX IT OR ISSUE A RECALL! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED WITH LARGE HOLES IN THE GRILL.

THE FACTORY SUPPLIED RUNNING BOARDS HAVE TREADS THAT FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY TRACTION FOR FEET WHILE ENTERING OR EXITING. THE TREADS NEED TO BE ROTATED 90 DEGREES AND MADE OF A SOFTER RUBBER WITH A DEEPER AND MORE AGGRESSIVE TREAD PATTERN. AS THEY EXIST THEY ARE VERY SLIPPERY ESPECIALLY WHEN WET OR FROZEN. GIVEN THE ADDED HEIGHT OF TRUCKS IT REQUIRES SOME USE OF THE RUNNING BOARDS TO ENTER/EXIT THE TRUCK. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE 68. AS DESIGNED AND MANUFACTURED THEY ARE ACTUALLY AN ACCELERANT IN SLIPPING FEET. I FEEL THEY ARE OF DEFECTIVE DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE AND COULD/SHOULD BE MADE SAFER. I FELL THREE TIMES IN THE PAST MONTHS WHILE EXITING MY SIERRA 1500.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra. The contact stated that while driving at 42 MPH, she was involved in a three-vehicle accident after a vehicle involved in another accident ricocheted and hit her vehicle. The driver's side air bag exploded but did not deploy. Black smoke was released from the steering wheel and the air bag fell on the contact's left leg. The driver seat belt retractor fell apart during the accident which sliced the top part of the contact's ear; in addition, the failure sent a part of the contact's earing into her ear canal. The driver of the vehicle that was originally hit in the accident died the next day in the hospital; another passenger in that same vehicle was critically injured. The contact was treated days later at a hospital for a severe burn to the left leg due to the airbag. Her leg remained infected despite the treatment received at the hospital. The contact's ear was not treated. A police report was filed. The contact's vehicle was initially towed to an independent mechanic and then to a friend's home. The contact's insurance had yet to make a decision on the repair for the vehicle. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V245000(Seat Belts) and 17V437000(Air Bags, Seat Belts) which she linked to her failure. The dealer nor the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was 93,622.
