BOTH DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE SEATBELTS IN THE BACK SEAT WILL NOT RETRACT. WHEN PASSENGERS PULL OUT THE SEATBELTS TO BUCKLE THEMSELVES IN, THE SEATBELT THEN HAS SLACK AND WILL NOT RETRACT AT ALL. THIS MAKES IT VERY UNSAFE FOR PASSENGERS AND CHILDREN RIDING IN THE BACK SEAT. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN OCCURING AROUND MAY 2018.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. WHILE DRIVING OVER 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND VIBRATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION TORQUE CONVERTER WAS FAULTY. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REBUILT, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED 99,000 MILES LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO H&N CHEVROLET (713 GRAND AVE, SPENCER, IA) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER FAILED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 145,000. *BF *TR

TAKATA RECALL- SINCE WE FIRST PURCHASED THE UNIT, WE HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT. IT FIRST STARTED WITH WITH SUSPENSION AND THE WHEELS, IT WAS DOING AN AWFUL LOT OF SHAKING IN THE INTERIOR AND ALSO CAUSING THE TIRES TO WARE OUT QUICKER. NOW THE AIRBAGS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY, WE KEEP GETTING MESSAGES ON THE DASH TO SERVICE THE PROBLEMS BUT WE I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY KEEP SAYING NOTHING IS WRONG AND TO NOT WORRY ABOUT IT, BUT I AM A MOTHER OF 2 SMALL CHILDREN AND I AM WORRIED.

I HAVE BROUGHT MY TRUCK TO THE CHEVROLET IN UNION CITY GEORGIA FOR THEM TO REPAIR THE RECALL 3 TIMES THIS YEAR AND THEY KEEP SAYING THEY RESET THE COMPUTER ESP AND YET THE PROBLEM STILL OCCUR EVERY BLUE MOON THE HEAD LIGHT FLICKER AND DIMS WHEN I PRESS THE BRAKES THE INTERIOR LIGHT WILL DIM AND HEAD LIGHTS ALSO. ON 8/19/18 COMING HOME FROM WORK WHILE PARKING MY TRUCK IN MY DRIVEWAY WHILE TURNING. IT CUT OFF AND STEER WHEEL REVERSE BACK AND THIS BEEN GOING ON FOR SOME MONTHS I HAVE TO CUT THE TRUCK OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN TO GET IT TO ACT RIGHT AND IF I DRIVE FOR A WEEK ONE OF THEM DAYS IT WILL EVENTUALLY DO IT AGAIN I GO TO WORK EARLY IN THE MORNING AND WHEN MY HEADLIGHTS ARE ON I NOTICE THEY DIM ONCE?S I PUT MY FEET ON THE BRAKES OR TURN ON THE TURN SIGNALS IT DIMS. NOW WHEN IT COMES BACK WHILE DRIVING I PLACE MY FOOT ON THE BRAKES AND THE RADIO AND DASHBOARD INTERIOR LIGHT DIMS AND I?M REAL CAUTIONS WHEN I TURN THAT WHEN SOMETIMES IT WANT TO SHIFT OFF. I JUST WANT THE SITUATION FIX BESIDES THAT IT'S A GOOD TRUCK I?M JUST PARANOID WHILE DRIVING IT SOME DAYS I ALSO HAVE VIDEOS OF IT ACTING UP ON SINCE THE DEALERSHIP CLAIM THAT CAN'T FIND THE ISSUE. *TR

BRAKES ON MY TRUCK HAVE FAILED AT LOW SPEED WHILE PARKING. AFTER ONLY 3-4 TIMES OF LIGHTLY PUMPING THE BRAKES THEY COMPLETELY GO HARD AND THE PEDDLE WILL NOT MOVE. NO MATTER WHAT AMOUNT OF PRESSURE IS APPLIED THE TRUCK WILL NOT STOP. SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN IN REVERSE THE MOST. BRAKE PADS, FLUIDS, ETC ARE ALL PERFECT. PROBLEM DOESN'T HAPPEN AT ALL WHEN DRIVING AT SPEED. ONLY OCCURRED AT LOW SPEED. DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT'S PROBABLY THE VACUUM FAILING... HAVE FOUND THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINS DESCRIBING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM ON TRUCKS

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE WHILE TURN ITSELF OFF WITH NO EXPLANATION. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS. IT HAS INCREASED SINCE I GOT THE LAST RECALL DONE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS IT HAS SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS TURNING ACROSS LANES AND DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. THE TRUCK SHUTS COMPLETELY OFF AND HAS TO BE RESTATED BY TURNING THE KEY.

PAINT FAILURE ON MY WHITE 2014 CHEVY SILVERADO. I HAVE GONE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ESCALATED MY COMPLAINT TO MARY BARRA'S OFFICE. DECLINED TO PROVIDE REMEDY OR CORRECTION STATING THERE ARE NO KNOWN DEFECTS TO THIS PRODUCT.

WHEN I AM BRAKING FREQUENTLY AT LOWER SPEEDS (EXAMPLE: IN LINE AT A DRIVE THRU) MY BRAKES GET HARDER AND HARDER TO PRESS UNTIL EVENTUALLY I CANNOT PRESS THEM AT ALL. I HAVE TO PUT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK, TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND CRANK IT AGAIN. ONLY THEN DOES IT WORK. HOWEVER, THE ISSUE COMES RIGHT BACK. APPARENTLY, MANY OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING IT. THIS COULD BE DEADLY. OTHERS HAVE GOTTEN INTO ACCIDENTS BECAUSE IT HAPPENED AT HIGH SPEEDS. THERE IS EVEN A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE. TSB #PIT5361B

VEHICLE WONT START, BATTERY IS FINE, AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WENT HAYWIRE, SAYS TO SERVICE EACH SYSTEM SEPERATELY WHEN TRYING TO START. ALL PASSENGER DOORS STOPPED LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH KEY FOBS AND WITH DOOR BUTTONS AS WELL. COMPLETELY STRANDED WITHOUT A VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, FORTUNANTLY.

SERVICE 4WD NOTIFICATION TURNED ON. 2 DAYS LATER, THE VEHICLE IS LOCKED IN 4WD, MAKING REVERSING AND TURNING DIFFICULT. REDUCED TURNING RADIUS AS A RESULT. SOUND OF GRINDING WHEN TURNING. SENSATION OF TIRES GRIPPING OVERLY HARD. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE AN ELECTRICAL RECALL WAS JUST DONE A MONTH PRIOR. THEY SAID THE TRANSFER CASE CONTROL MODULE AND ACTUATOR MOTOR WERE FAULTY. THE ALIGNMENT, WHICH HAD BEEN JUST TUNED LESS THAN A MONTH PRIOR, WAS ALSO FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REDONE. THESE ITEMS WERE REPLACED AT A COST OF $1,184.37.
