2008 GMC SIERRA 1500 Complaints

ALL FOUR POWER DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED. FIRST THREE FAILED BEFORE REACHING 30000 MILES. DEALER ADVISED THEY WERE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I ARGUED WITH THEM, BY THE TIME MY TRUCK HAD 50000 MILES ALL FOUR HAD FAILED AND WAS TOLD THAT THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 36000 MILES. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND GM REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE MILLIONS OF VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THIS ISSUE. GM WANTS $300 PER DOOR TO REPAIR. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY THEM $1200 FOR SOMETHING I PAID FOR WITH THE PRICE OF THE TRUCK.

TAKATA RECALL I BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW THIS TYPE AIR BAG IS INSTALLED IN MYYEAR AND MODEL TRUCK HVE NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT THE MORE I HEAR ABOUT VEHICLES INVOLVED IN CRASHES AND THE INJURYS THAT HAVE ACCERD WORRYS ME WHY HAS GMC NOT HAD ARECALL ON THEM.

I HAVE A LARGE SECTION OF MY DASH PAD BROKEN ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. I ALSO HAVE A CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THIS WAS NOT CAUSED FROM ABUSE BUT FROM INFERIOR MATERIALS. IT APPEARED SOMETIME IN 2015 WITH ABOUT 130,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE OWNED IT SINCE NEW. MY CONCERN IS IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, ALONG WITH THE DANGEROUS TAKATA AIRBAGS THAT I'M STILL WAITING TO BE REPLACED, WILL PLASTIC BE SENT THROUGH THE AIR FROM AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT?, OR WILL WE WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO BE INJURED OR KILLED TO GET GM TO RESOLVE THIS SITUATION.BY THE WAY GM HAS SENT ME A RECALL NOTICE AND TOLD ME THEY ARE WAITING ON PARTS. THAT HAS BEEN OVER 3 MONTHS AGO. I ALSO HAVE ANOTHER TRUCK FOR AIRBAG RECALL.JUST FOR THE RECORD MY WIFES 2007 CHEVY SILVERADO 1500 RECEIVED A CRACK IN THE DASH AT ABOUT 80,000 MILES. THIS IS AN EPIDEMIC BUT I SURE GM WILL ESCAPE AGAIN JUST LIKE IN THE PAST. IT TAKES ONE SMALL FRAGMENT IN THE RIGHT PLACE SUCH AS AN EYE TO CHANGE SOMEONES LIFE FOREVER. JUST THINK IF IT WAS SOMEONE YOU LOVED SITTING IN THAT TRUCK.

A LIGHT FLICKERS ON OCCASION THAT LOOKS LIKE A AIRBAG WARNING. IT DOES NOT STAY ON LONG OR OFTEN.

THIS VEHICLE WAS ACQUIRED IN MARCH, 2016 WITH AN INTACT DASHBOARD, 142,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. OVER THE LAST 9 MONTHS MULTIPLE, PENETRATING CRACKS HAVE DEVELOPED IN THE TOP OF THE PLASTIC DASHBOARD DUE TO CAUSE(S) UNKNOWN. THIS HAS GREATLY DIMINISHED THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE DASHBOARD TO THE POINT THAT AT LEAST ONE TOP PIECE OF THE DASHBOARD IS LOOSE DUE TO THE CRACKS. TWO CRACKS ARE IN THE CENTER OF THE DASHBOARD TOP AND ONE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE DASHBOARD IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG. CURRENT MILES ON THE ODOMETER ARE 146,000. IN THE EVENT OF AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT DURING A CRASH, THE LIKELIHOOD IS VERY HIGH THAT PLASTIC FROM THE DASHBOARD COULD FRACTURE, BECOME AIRBORNE, AND RESULT IN INJURY TO OCCUPANT(S) OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO EITHER THE NORMAL DEPLOYMENT VELOCITY OF THE TAKATA PASSENGER AIRBAG, OR WORSE YET IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR FAILS TO FUNCTION AS DESIGNED AND ACTIVATES WITH EXCESSIVE FORCE. THIS VEHICLE IS SUBJECT TO RECALL NHSTA #16V381, ISSUED 5/27/2016 FOR DEFECTIVE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATORS. FURTHER, THE VEHICLE HAS SPENT ITS ENTIRE OPERATING LIFE IN THE "ZONE A" HIGH ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY REGION (FLORIDA). IN AND OF ITSELF, THE CRACKING DASHBOARD PRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD DURING A CRASH WITH AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. HOWEVER, COMBINED WITH CONDITIONS RECORDED IN RECALL 16V381, I MAINTAIN THIS COMBINED HAZARD PRESENTS AN UNACCEPTABLE LIFE SAFETY RISK. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT THE NHTSA IMMEDIATELY INITIATE AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE CAUSE OF THE NOTED DASHBOARD CRACKS ON BOTH GM AND GMC GMT900 TRUCK PRODUCTS, AND FURTHER RECOMMEND THAT A RECALL ACTION BE SUGGESTED TO GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION ON GMT900 VEHICLES REGISTERED IN "ZONE A" TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARDS. AS OF THIS DATE GM HAS NOT COMPLETED THE RECALL ACTION UNDER NHSTA #16V381 ON MY VEHICLE, THEREFORE THE ACCENTUATED HAZARD REMAINS UNABATED.
