WHILE DRIVING ON I 81 THE TRUCK WENT INTO REDUCED POWER MODE AND VIOLENTLY WENT FROM 70 MILES PER HOUR TO 10 MILES PER HOUR. THIS MODE IS VERY DANGEROUS! FORTY PERCENT OF THE TRAFFIC ON I 81 IS TRACTOR TRAILER. I'M SCARED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. THE MECHANIC TELLS ME THIS IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR AS THERE ARE MANY THINGS THAT AN CAUSE THIS CONDITION TO OCCUR!!

TAKATA RECALL. THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN AIR BAG INCIDENT WITH THIS VEHICLE BUT IT IS DRIVEN DAILY AND FEEL UNSAFE WITH A DANGEROUS WEAPON IN MY FACE EVERY TIME IT IS OPERATED. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION FROM CHEVROLET THAT THE AIR BAGS ARE RECALLED. NOTICE CAME FROM NHTSA. CONTACT WITH LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER TOLD ME TO CALL A TOLL NUMBER AT GM BUT THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD NOT RECEIVED ANY MONEY FROM TAKATA SO THEY COULD DO NOTHING.

WE NOTICED THE TRUCK STARTED TO BOUNCE AND HOP WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WE LOOKED AT THE TIRE AND NOTICED LARGE LUMPS INDICATING A BELT SEPARATION ON THE TOYO TIRES A/T II.

TAKATA RECALL - IT'S BEEN 3 YEARS SINCE I RECEIVED MY NOTICE OF RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS IN MY 2009 SILVERADO. NOW THAT MY TRUCK IS OLDER THIS CONCERNS ME EVEN MORE THAT NO FIX HAS BEEN MADE AVAILABLE. I WANT TO GO ON RECORD THAT THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE PRACTICE AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED ASAP. ALSO MY DASH ON THE PAX SIDE IS CRACKED AT THE AIRBAG CUT OUT, WHICH I'VE READ THAT THIS IS ALSO A COMMON PROBLEM AND A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE RIDER. PLEASE PLEASE MAKE THESE PARTS AVAILABLE SOON. THANK YOU

4X4 TRANSFER CASE ENCODER MOTOR FAILS AND CAUSES YOUR SERVICE 4X4 LIGHT TO COME ON AND YOU CANT SELECT 4X4 ON YOUR VEHICLE.

MY FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE PN20759945 SHORTED. RECALL BULLETIN 14515 COVERS MY MODEL YEAR AND PART NUMBER. HOWEVER, GM CLAIMS MY VIN IS NOT COVERED BY THIS. THIS IS THE SAME PART AND SAME FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL BULLETIN, AND IMO IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY GM. FCPM'S ARE POORLY DESIGNED AND POORLY PLACED AND FAIL ON MANY MANY GM MODELS OVER A NUMBER OF YEARS. THIS IS AN ITEM THAT SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE ALL VEHICLES WITH THAT PART NUMBER, ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE MOUNTED EXTERNALLY AND EXPOSED TO THE ENVIRONMENT SUCH AS ON ALL CHEVY SLIVERADOS AND RELATED TRUCKS. THE FAULT IN MY CASE WAS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, AND NOT A CRANK NO START. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO GM FOR DIAGNOSIS. THEY SAID THE FCPM NEEDS REPLACED AS IT SHOWS AND INTERNAL FAULT. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE PART AND SERVICE,WHICH SHOULD BE COVERED BY GM UNDER THE BULLETIN IMO.
