2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

THE AC CONDENSER IN THIS TRUCK FAILED RIGHT AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ENDED, LIKE IN MANY OTHER GM TRUCKS IN THE YEARS 2014-17. WITH VERY LITTLE RESEARCH IT IS KNOWN TO BE A POORLY WELDED AC CONDENSER WHICH DESTINE TO FAIL. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TO BE A RECALL FOR THESE TRUCKS AND OTHER VEHICLES LOSING AC. WITHOUT PROPER FUNCTIONING AC, I CAN NOT FILTER AIR COMING IN THE VEHICLE WHICH IS A NECESSITY TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE. I CAN'T FILTER OUT FIRE SMOKE WHICH IS ABUNDANT IN CA EVERY FIRE SEASON, VEHICLE WINDOWS MUST BE UP AND N95 MASKS ARE REQUIRED WHEN EXPOSED TO THE SMOKE. I CAN'T FILTER OUT CORONA VIRUS, WHICH IS THE NEW NORMAL, MASKS ARE REQUIRED TO BE WARN AT ALL TIMES OUTSIDE. I CAN'T FILTER OUT ANYTHING IN THE AIR THAT REQUIRES ME TO ROLL UP THE WINDOWS; SMOG, EXHAUST FORM A CLOSE VEHICLE, ETC... WHEN IT IS HOT OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE BECOMES DEATH TRAP, THE TEMPERATURE GETS TO UNSAFE LEVELS AND THE OPERATOR HAS NOT CHOICE BUT TO EXPOSE THE PASSENGER TO THE ELEMENTS WHICH THESE DAYS IS A HEALTH AND SAFETY ISSUE, AND IT IS ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE. AC IS NOT A LUXURY ANYMORE, FILTERING TEMPERATURE APPROPRIATE AIR IS A NECESSITY, AND REQUIRED FOR SAFE HANDLING OF THE VEHICLE.

DRIVER LOST CONTROL OF HIS VEHICLE FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND STRUCK AN ONCOMING TRAILER AND ULTIMATELY LOST HIS LIFE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED BUT STILL ON OUR POSSESSION. *TR

WHENEVER WE MAKE A SLOW TURN THE TRUCK WITH SHUT OFF RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TURN. IT HAS TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY GOING AT LEAST 50MPH. IT IS SCARRY WHEN THE TRUCK SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING.

WHILE DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON WHEN I TURN MY SIGNAL ON TO CHANGE LANES MY CRUISE WILL TURN OFF AND MY DASH LIGHTS FLICKER. WHEN DRIVING AT SLOWER SPEEDS AND TRY TO TURN INTO PARKING SPACES STABIL TRACK WARNING POPS UP AND TRUCK WILL LOSE POWER SHUTTING THE ENGINE COMPLETELY OFF WITHTHE KEY TURNED . THE DOORS WILL LOCK AND UNLOCK DURING THIS TIME AND IT WILL SHOW NEARLY EVERY WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH. IT HAS SHUT OFF AND NOT STARTED BACK UP.

THIS TRUCK IS SUPPOSE TO HAVE A HIGH SAFETY RATING FOR I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN AND I DON'T NEED A 5 YEAR OLD TRUCK WITH LESS THAN 100,000 MILES SHUTTING OFF IN MIDDLE OF TURN ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH MY KIDS WITH ME.

PAINT ON MY 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO IS CHIPPING OR FLAKING OFF FOR REASONS OTHER THAN NATURAL CAUSES. THE VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND HAS ONLY 55,000 MILES ON IT. THE PAINT SHOULD IN NO WAY BE FAILING WITH A VEHICLE THIS NEW AND THIS EXPENSIVE. AS YOU WILL SEE IN THE PHOTOS THE PAINT NOT STICKING IS IN AREAS THAT DO NOT INCUR DAMAGE FROM EVERYDAY DRIVING. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND GM MANUFACTURER AND BOTH HAVE TOLD ME THAT PAINT IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM. WHEN I DO A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH FOR "2014 SILVERADO PAINT," THERE ARE 100S OF FORUMS WITH 1000S OF COMMENTS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. ONE OF THE FIRST PICTURES I CAME TO WHEN I SEARCHED, SHOWED THE SAME VEHICLE WITH PAINT GONE IN THE EXACT SAME SPOTS. AFTER TALKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND MANUFACTURER NUMEROUS TIMES, I FELT THIS WAS ONE OF MY LAST RESORTS. THE MANUFACTURER LAUGHED ME OFF AND SAID NHTSA WOULD PAY NO ATTENTION AS PAINT ISNT A SAFETY CONCERN. SOMEONE HAS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT WITHOUT ME HAVING TO SPEND THOUSANDS TO REPAINT. IT'S A CLEAR MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND THEY SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE BY ALL STANDARDS. THE COST OF THEIR VEHICLES BEING SO HIGH, ALL PARTS SHOULD LAST FOR MORE THAN 55000 MILES, INCLUDING THE PAINT. AGAIN, THIS VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND LOSES PAINT JUST BY DRIVING WITH A BREEZE OUT. ASIDE FROM THE 2 PHOTOS ATTACHED, I'M ALSO LOSING PAINT AROUND THE WINDSHIELD AND LOW ON THE DOOR PANELS.
