4TH COMPLAINT ON THIS RECALL, STILL NO REMEDY FOR THIS BUT GM HAS MADE 10 MORE YEARS OF TRUCKS AND SELL REPLACEMENT AIR BAGS FOR THIS MODEL, NOT A GOOD SAFETY RECALL IF THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE BEFORE DECIDING THIS VEHICLE IS TRULY AFFECTED BY THE AIRBAG THEY INSTALLED. WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GM VEHICLE AGAIN. STILL NO RESPONSE FROM LAST COMPLAINT. NHTSA SHOULD BE DEFUNDED.

POOR QUALITY, SHARP PIECES OF BROKEN DASH AROUND PASSENGER AIRBAG. CRACK EXTENDS TO RADIO. CHEAP PLASTIC PARTS SHAME ON GM FOR NOT RECALLING THIS. MY 09 F-150 HAS NO CRACKS OR POOR QC. THIS TRUCK IS NOT SAFE IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION ANYONE DRIVING IT SHOULD WEAR OSHA RATED SAFETY GLASSES.

I STARTED MY 2011 CHEVY SILVERADO 2500 6.6L DIESEL AND MY DEF AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH TELLING ME TO CHECK OWNERS MANUAL NOW. I PLUGGED IN MY CODE READER TO THE VEHICLE AND IT GAVE ME A CODE READING 'P20B9 REDUCTANT HEATER A CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN'. FROM WHAT I COULD RESEARCH ONLINE THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE IN THESE LML DIESEL TRUCKS WITH THE DEF SYSTEM.

WHILE DRIVING IN EXCESS OF 55 MPH ON I 95, MY 2011 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500 STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE I WAS IN THE FAR LEFT PASSING LANE. NO POWER STEERING OR POWER BRAKES MADE IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL WHILE MOVING THROUGH 4 LANES OF TRAFFIC TO GET TO THE SHOULDER. I WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A GARAGE. I WAS INFORMED THE CP4 FUEL INJECTION PUMP HAD FAILED AND REPAIRS WILL BE IN EXCESS OF $8,000 BECAUSE THE ENTIRE FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM WAS CONTAMINATED AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

GM IS SAYING THERE IS NO REMEDY YET, BUT THEY ARE SELLING REPLACEMENT AIR BAGS UNDER PART # 22744316. SO IS THERE NOT REMEDY OR DO THEY NOT WANT TO COVER THEIR RECALL. WHEN YOU PAY 50K FOR A VEHICLE YOU EXPECT THE MANUFACTURER TO STAND BEHIND IT. SAYING THE VEHICLE IS SAFE DOES NOT MAKE ME COMFORTABLE IF I WAS TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT THAT WOULD CAUSE AIRBAG TO GO OFF. LET ALONG IF SOMEONE WAS TO DIE FROM THE AIRBAG. WHAT GOOD IS NHTSA IF YOU DON'T ENFORCE THE RECALLS, YOU CANNOT LET THE MANUFACTURER DECIDE THAT ANY OF THE VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THE RECALL ARE SAFE. I WILL NOT BE BUYING ANOTHER GM VEHICLE IF THIS IS NOT TAKEN CARE OF PROPERLY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FUEL FILTER CLOGGED MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED.

I HAVE A 2011 CHEVY 2500. 6.6 TURBO DIESEL AT 136K MILES. MY DEF HEATER JUST WENT OUT AND MY DEALERSHIP SAID IT'S ONLY UNDER WARRANTY UNTIL 120K MILES. I'VE BEEN LOOKING ONLINE AND THERE'S A LOT OF 2011S THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. SOMEONE NEEDS TO STEP UP AND BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS. IT'S COSTING ME $1200 TO FIX PLUS A DAY OFF WORK. I'M SELF EMPLOYED AND IF I SELL A FAULTY PRODUCT I'M REQUIRED TO REPLACE FOR FREE. G.M SHOULD BE DOING THE SAME.
