2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE MY BRAKE PEDAL WAS GETTING HARD TO PRESS EVEN AT A LOW SPEED. I TOOK IN MY VEHICLE AND IT ENDED UP BEING THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP THAT WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM.

BRAKE FAILURE. WHILE BACKING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY AT A SPEED OF ONLY 10-15 MPH THE VEHICLES BRAKE PEDAL BECAME ROCK HARD AND WOULD NOT DEPRESS, I AM A 220 LB. MAN WHO IS WHAT I FEEL IN GOOD SHAPE AND HAD TO USE BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND ALL MY STRENGTH JUST TO ATTEMPT TO SLOW IT DOWN. I WAS UNABLE TO FULLY BE ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN I IMPACTED THE CORNER OF MY GARAGE WHICH RESULTED IN MINOR BUMPER DAMAGE , HOWEVER NO ONE WAS HURT THANK GOD. THE ODD THING IS ONCE I STOPPED AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK THE BRAKE PEDAL SEEMED TO BUILD PRESSURE AGAIN AND WAS FINE? AFTER A LITTLE INVESTIGATION WITH THE VEHICLE I CAN RECREATE THE ISSUE IF I PUMP THE BRAKES 4 TO 5 TIMES IN QUICK SUCCESION WHICH RESULTS AGAIN IN A ROCK HARD PEDAL AND LOSS OF BRAKING. ONCE I REV THE ENGINE IN NEUTRAL I RESTORE PRESSURE BACK TO THE BRAKE PEDAL AND HAVE NO ISSUES. I AM ALMOST POSITIVE THIS IS A BRAKE VACUUM ISSUE AND WILL BE TAKING TO A MECHANIC ASAP TO LOOK INTO IT.

MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND I COULD FEEL IT SLIPPING. I MANAGED DO MAKE IT TO MY STREET AND IT LOCKED UP AND SKIDDED TO A HALT AS IF WAS THROWN INTO PARK EVEN THOUGH IT WAS IN DRIVE. REVERS WOULD NOT ENGAGE NOR WOULD DRIVE. THE TRUCK WOULD ROLL IN NEUTRAL. THE TRUCK IS ONLY A 2014 AND HAS 130000 MILES. MOST HWY MILES. IT IS CURRENTLY IN SHOP JAVING TRANSMISSION REBUILT. THIS EVENT HAPPENED YESTERDAY MORNING JULY 15TH 2019.

TURNED A CORNER WHILE BRAKING, THE ENGINE DIED, "SERVICE STABILITRAC SOON" ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL; DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD PULLING A LIGHT WEIGHT BOAT TRAILER, THE ENGINE DIED BUT CAME BACK ON IMMEDIATELY AND THE "SERVICE STABILITRAC" ILLUMINATED; PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND AS I TURNED ABOUT HALFWAY THROUGH THE TURN THE ENGINE DIED AND "SERVICE STABILITRAC SOON" ILLUMINATED. I TOOK TO THE TRUCK TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER AND THEY DIAGNOSED THE POSITIVE BATTERY TERMINAL WAS LOOSE AND THE POSITIVE CABLE HAD TOO MUCH RESISTANCE - $507.00 LATER AND APPROXIMATELY 10,000 MILES LATER REARED IT'S UGLY HEAD AGAIN. COMING BACK FROM A MORNING DRIVE TO THE LAKE AND THE 'SERVICE STABILITRAC' LIGHT ILLUMINATED BUT THE TRUCK DIDN'T DIE, A LITTLE FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD IT DID THE SAME THING AND DIED BUT STARTED RIGHT BACK UP ON ITS OWN WHILE DRIVING, STARTED TO BACK INTO MY DRIVEWAY AND IT DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND ATTEMPTED TO START IT TWO OR THREE MORE TIMES, NOTHING!!! IT'S LIKE THERE WAS NO BATTERY INSTALLED. EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS I LOSE STEERING, THE BRAKES SEEM TO FADE BUT I AM ABLE TO STOP ON THE SLOW TURNS LIKE INTO THE PARKING LOT. IN ALL INSTANCES THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING. ONE TIME I NOTICED AN INCREASE IN THE A/C SPEED WITHIN THE CAB AND THE 'SERVICE STABILITRAC' ILLUMINATED BUT AS SOON AS I TURNED ABOUT HALF WAY INTO A PARKING AREA, IT DIED, BUT CONTINUED TO PICK BACK UP ON THE ENGINE RUNNING. THE LOCAL DEALER HAD ALSO PERFOMED SOME SERVICE BULLETIN REGARDING THE CAMPAIGN FOR 'LOSS OF STEERING ASSIST' AT 19,340 MILES. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 42,000 MILES..... THE DATE "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN" WAS TODAY 7/16/2019 BUT THE OTHER TIMES WERE VARIOUS BEFORE THIS DATE.

WE STARTED HAVING A PROBLEM WITH OUR AIR CONDITION FOR 3 MONTHS NOW, IT JUST BLOWS WARM AIR. WE TRIED TAKING IT TO THE DEALER BUT WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED WITH THE WARRANTY. WE FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS A LEAK IN THE CONDENSER. I'VE FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS SO MUCH PEOPLE COMPLAINING WITH THE SAME ISSUE & WITH THE SAME VEHICLE. WHETHER THE CAR WAS RUNNING OR STATIONARY OR IN WHICH ROAD IT WAS GOING THE AIR CONDITIONER DOES NOT WORK AT ALL IT WAS JUST BLOWING HOT AIR.

I BOUGHT THIS 2014 SILVERADO NEW. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE FOGGING UP ON THE INSIDE WHICH MAKES IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. ALSO , THE STEERING WHEEL IS COMING APART AROUND THE AIR BAG , WHICH MAY GET IN THE WAY OF ME SAFELY STEERING IT OR MIGHT CAUSE THE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY.THIS VEHICLE IS STORED IN A CLIMATE CONTROLLED ENVIROMENT EVERY DAY. IT DOES NOT SIT OUTSIDE, SO THE SUN HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS. I CONTACTED GM AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD'NT HELP ME. PLEASE HELP AS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT. THANKS. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 26000 MILES ON IT. I OWN SEVERAL GM VEHICLES , BUT THIS IS THE ONLY ONE I HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH.

COMPRESSOR FOR AIR CONDITIONING SEIZED UP AND CAUSED THE BELT TO BRAKE THE CONDENSER WAS ALSO HEAVILY LEAKING. FIRST COMMENT OUT OF THE SERVICE MANAGERS MOUTH WAS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH SILVERADOS AND SIERRAS. DON'T KNOW WHY THE SUV WERE RECALLED AND THE TRUCKS WERE NOT. WITH ONLY 30000 MILES IT IS VERY UNACCEPTABLE
