WHEN TRAVELING BACKWARDS AT LOW SPEED IT APPEARS THAT MY ABS IS TRYING TO TURN ON. THE LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON, BUT IT IS VERY HARD TO STOP. IT WILL DO IT GOING FORWARD, BUT MAINLY BACKWARDS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HER HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AT 45 MPH HE SUDDENLY SAW SMOKE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE HOOD.THE HUSBAND PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE QUICKLY AND WATCHED AS THE VEHICLE WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES.

WHILE MOVING SLOWLY IN TRAFFIC (~5MPH) WHEN APPLYING LIGHT BRAKE PRESSURE IT FELT LIKE ABS WAS KICKING IN AND THERE WAS NO BRAKING. THIS HAPPENED TWICE BEFORE THE BRAKES RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. HAPPENED AGAIN AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. THE RECALL REGARDING THE REPROGRAMMING OF ECBM (N192268490) WAS DONE ALREADY.

ON AVERAGE, ABOUT EVERY 3RD TIME I DRIVE THIS TRUCK, BUT ALMOST EVERY TIME IF IT'S WET OR COLD, I GET A WARNING THAT THERE IS A MECHANICAL ISSUE WITH MY AIRBAGS. I DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE, OR WHAT PART OF THE SYSTEM IS FAILING, BUT THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WILL REMAIN ON THE ENTIRE TIME I'M DRIVING AND I GET NOTICES FROM ONSTAR THAT IT REQUIRES IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. IT'S HAPPENED TOO MANY TIMES FOR ME TO COUNT. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED (OVER A YEAR AGO), I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP REGARDING THE ISSUE, THEY THOUGHT IT WAS LIKELY ELECTRICAL AND COULD BE FIXED WITH A $1000 REPAIR.

SMELLED ELECTRICAL BURNING AND THEN SECONDS LATER THE DRIVER SIDE OF MY REAR WINDOW EXPLODED INTO PIECES WITH A LOUD BANG.

BRAKES FAIL. WILL NOT ALLOW VEHICLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP WHEN GOING FORWARD OR IN REVERSE. WHEN ACCELERATING VEHICLE VIOLENTLY SHAKES. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED ABOVE 20MPH.

AT LOW SPEEDS THE BRAKES GET VERY HARD TO PRESS AND THE TRUCK TAKES LONGER TO STOP. THE SERVICE BRAKE LIGHT HAS CAME ON SOMETIMES WHEN THIS OCCURS. I'VE SEEN AN OPEN RECALL FOR THE EXACT PROBLEM WITH MY TRUCK, BUT WHEN I ENTER MY VIN IT SAYS MY TRUCK IS NOT PART OF THE RECALLED VEHICLES. PLEASE HELP ME
