2016 GMC SIERRA 1500 Complaints

STARTED TRUCK. NO RADIO, BACKUP CAMERA, NOTHING ON SCREEN. ALSO NO BLINKER SOUND. ALL CAME BACK ON AFTER DISCONNECTING AND RECONNECTING NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE. BEFORE THIS HAPPENED, THE RADIO HAD RESET ITSELF 4 OTHER TIMES AND I HAD TO RESET CLOCK AND RADIO STATIONS. GMC HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH OTHER VEHICLES.

[XXX] I WAS IN THE DESERT AND THE STEERING WHEEL STOPPED WORKING, I WAS ALONE WITHOUT WATER, UNDER STRESS I CALLED GM ROAD ASSISTANCE AND EMERGENCY TO HELP ME AND THANKS TO GOD THEY CAME AFTER 6 HOURS. REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC

WHILE MAKING TURNS THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY STALLS, LOSING ALL CONTROL OF STEERING AND ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. WHEN IT STALLS THERE IS NO STEERING CONTROL WHATSOEVER AND THE VEHICLE DOES HAVE BRAKES, BUT SLOW TO REACT.. RESTART THE VEHICLE AND THE COMPUTER SYSTEM SLOWLY RESETS. THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES IN THE LAST2 DAYS. TAKING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AS SOON AS THEY HAVE AN OPENING.

A/C STOPPED WORKING. GREAT ON FRIDAY, DID NOT DRIVE OVER WEEKEND, HOT ON MONDAY. *TR

PROBLEMS WITH TRANSMISSION JERKING,HARD SHIFTING,JUMPING, ONLY HAVE 60,000 MILES ON IT. TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY TOLD ME EACH TIME IT WAS NORMAL. TOLD THEM I HAVE BEEN DRIVING 40 YEARS AND THAT WAS NOT NORMAL. THEY NEVER DONE ANYTHING. NOW I AM HAVING MORE PROBLEMS WITH IT, GETTING WORSE. NOW I FIND OUT THERE IS A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH SAME PROBLEMS. GMC KNOWS SOMETHING IS WRONG AND SHOULD TAKE CARE OF IT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY DOWN A 4 LANE HIGHWAY AND WHEN I WENT TO STOP I HAD NO BRAKES AND REAR ENDED A VEHICLE. MY BREAK PEDDLE WENT TO THE FLOOR.

VEHICLE WAS REMOTE STARTED- REAR DEFROST TURNED ON AUTOMATICALLY DUE TO OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE. REAR DEFROST OVERHEATED AND SHATTERED REAR POWER SLIDING WINDOW (RPO A48) WHILE STATIONARY. BURNING SMELL WAS NOTED. GM CLAIMS MY VIN IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH SPECIAL CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM N192265660.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE PENSKE BUICK, GMC OF SOUTH BAY LOCATED AT 18600 HAWTHORNE BLVD, TORRANCE, CA 90504, (310) 853-5860, WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED AND TECHNICIAN CHANGED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED BACK TO THE DEALER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,000. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

WHEN BRAKING THE BRAKE PADDLE GETS HARD AND DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO BRAKE. THANKFULLY IT HAS HAPPEN ONLY WHEN I AM PARKING OR COMING TO A STOP. LESS THEN A MONTH AGO I TOOK IT IN TO OUR LOCAL GMC DEALER AND IN HALF AN HOUR THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED. A FEW DAYS AGO IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND WENT BACK TO LOCAL DEALER AND CUSTOMER SERVICE SAID THEY CAN SCHEDULE ME IN TWO WEEKS TO FIX THE ISSUE. I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING WHEN IT'S A BRAKE ISSUE I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE FIXED OR AT LEAST TRY TO FIX THE ISSUE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE NOT IN TWO WEEKS.

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN JULY OF 2019 FROM A GMC DEALERSHIP IN DUNCANSVILLE PA. IN LATE NOVEMBER ON MY WAY TO WORK RANDOMLY MY SERVICE STABILI TRAK, ABS, ASSISTED STEERING, AND BRAKE LIGHT LIT UP ON MY DASH EVERY 30 SECONDS REPETITIVELY FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE TRIP (3 HOURS). I WORK 4 HOURS FROM HOME FOR 2 WEEKS AT A TIME I SPEND VERY LITTLE TIME IN MY VEHICLE DURING THIS TIME. I SEEN THE LIGHTS COME UP RANDOMLY WHILE OUT OF TOWN ALSO. ONCE MY WORK WEEKS WERE OVER ON MY WAY HOME THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. I TOOK IT FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND RECALL LATE DECEMBER. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE ANY LIGHTS NOR WERE THEY SHOWING ANY CODES. AS OF LAST MONTH THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE TO THE POINT WERE I AM COMPLETELY LOSING MY POWER STEERING SOMETIMES FOR DAYS AT A TIME. LAST WEEK I TOOK MY VEHICLE DOWN FOR ANOTHER RECALL SENT FROM GM SPECIFICALLY FOR MY VIN I WAS TOLD THERE WASN'T ANY ISSUES OR CODES. ALL THEY COULD FIND IS A COMMUNICATIONS ERROR AND THEY WOULD NEED TO KEEP IT FOR A FEW DAYS AND SENT ME ON MY WAY HOME UNTIL THEY HAD A LOANER VEHICLE AVAILABLE. ONE WEEK LATER AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET MY TRUCK IN I STILL HAVE A LIT UP DASH, NO POWER STEERING, AND NOT A CLUE WHEN IT'LL EVEN BE ABLE TO BE LOOKED AT SINCE I LEAVE FOR WORK IN 2 DAYS. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FROM WHAT I HAVE READ AND CAN BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY IN WINTER/SNOW/ICY CONDITIONS. I NEED A VEHICLE THAT I CAN FEEL SAFE IN THAT I CAN TRAVEL WITHOUT WORRYING AROUND EVERY TURN IF MY POWER STEERING IS GOING TO SHUT OFF AND I'M GOING TO HAVE TO POWER A VEHICLE AROUND A TURN OR TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I FEEL LIKE MY PROBLEM IS BEING BRUSHED UNDER THE RUG. ON MY WAY HOME THAT DAY JUST 2 MILES FROM MY HOUSE MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND I SLID OFF THE ROAD FORTUNATELY I LIVE IN THE COUNTRY AND NOTHING WAS IN THE FIELD I SLID INTO. I HAVE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS OF THE LIGHTS FLASHING OFF AND ON.
