2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

Temporary loss of electric power steering assist, happens mostly at low speeds. also complete loss of power and engine Turing at low speeds. luckily was driving less than 10 MPH but had zero control of the truck and brakes did not work and ran into and curb that stopped me. The vehicle was taken into the Chevy Dealership in Covina 3 times and they said there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. There was no warnings at all, just total loss of control

Using a signal for lane changes causes cruise control to disengage, suspension messages and air bag failure messages as well as tire failure icon would all come on and when leaving the exit ramp and decelerating the engine would die and system would lock up without ability to steer. So dangerous. Then next trip all is good but the engine failing while driving has happened a half dozen times. The last incident was another engine failure during an exit from the interstate in November.

Slow Crank, and Theft Deterrent System comes on while driving and you loose power to the vehicle and stalls outs while in motion, bad negative battery cables are to blame from all our research on this vehicle from multiple online videos it is common for this year, make, model. It happened to us while driving on a highway luck was on our side and no one was around us.

Trucks electrical system will flash and blink and shut down the truck this has happened to me while driving at night on the highway it is very dangerous. Also research I have done shows there is a bunch of people having this problem and they have found that a ground has factory insulation in between the ground and the nut

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the “Service Trailer Brake System" message was constantly displayed. The contact indicated that while the message was displayed, the speedometer and instrument cluster gauges were inoperable. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer was notified, and a service appointment was scheduled. The manufacturer was not yet notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 69,000.

Transmission quit working at 125195 miles. When I called around to Chevy dealers, this is a common problem for this particular year and model. Dealer said it would cost close to $7,000 to replace with a different transmission to resolve the problem. They did not put the same make/model transmission into the truck - they put a different one due to the issues the original transmissions are having. We spent a significant amount of money to get the transmission REPLACED. The transmission needed to replace the bad one was on backorder - due to the demands. I personal feel that Chevy should have recalled the bad transmission and the cost of the repairs should have been covered by the manufacturer. I am a woman and this could have been very dangerous had the transmission quit on the highways in Portland, Oregon while commuting to or from work. Please look into this. I would like Chevy to reimburse us for the repairs we paid. I have an invoice of $4,690. Thankfully it quit a few blocks from my home. I had to have the truck towed to the dealer. That was an additional expense.

Entire frame completely rusted out. Do not know the exact date it happened but just noticed it.

The rear window defogger caught fire. It caught fire while parked next to a gas pump after using the auto start. If it had happened while driving down the road it could've caused a bad accident. It shattered the window as well so I've had to tape the back window which is limiting my view when driving. The dealership I bought it from knows about the issue. GM has already recalled 160,000 trucks for the same reason in Canada but never issued a recall for any US trucks. Nobody has inspected the component yet as I have not had the money to replace it but it is in the same state/condition it was in after the fire. There were no warning lights or symptoms. The rear window defogger comes on every time the remote start is used. I've used the remote start plenty of times before, luckily I was close to the truck when it happened to catch fire this time or the truck may have caught fire and burned completely. I want to point out the fact that GM has already issued a recall for the exact same problem I had but only for Canada trucks. They said they were investigating to see if there were any in the US that were sold but clearly there were.

Transmission failed because of faulty torque converter at roughly 95,000 miles. Now the same failure has occurred at 115,000 miles. This type of failure is unsafe if it were to happen in heavy traffic or crossing an intersection. GM refuses to acknowledge the issue and demands a certified dealership diagnose the issue. I maintain my right as a consumer to use a private repair shop. They will not investigate any further with my report, without their service department, which is biased and a conflict, providing the diagnosis.

TCM Failed. Caused vehicle to no longer shift through drive gears while operating. After stopped no longer able to start vehicle. Appears to be common as a result replacement parts re not available.
