2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 Complaints

22014 SIERRA 1500 4X4 HAS TOTAL LOSS OF POWER AT LOW SPEEDS INCLUDING POWER STEERING, BRAKES, DASHBOARD AND ALL OTHER ELECTRICAL ITEMS. 6TH EVENT OF THIS NATURE. MOST RECENT WAS ON A DOWNTOWN STREET IN BRIGHTON MI. TRYING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND THE POWER STEERING FAILED AND THE TRUCK STALLED. THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. AFTER BEING ABLE TO RESTART THE TRUCK WE PARKED IN A PARKING LOT AND ONCE AGAIN A FULL POWER FAILURE. IT WAS RESTARTED AFTER 5-10 MINUTES BUT WE NEED HELP WITH THIS ISSUE. AND SO DO A LOT OF OTHER TRUCK OWNERS FROM THE COMPAINTS WE HAVE READ. WE HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK IN FOR THE STABILITY TRACK RECALL. THE DAY AFTER THEY SERVICED THE RECALL THE TRUCK STARTED THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES. WE TOOK IT BACK TO FELDMAN CHEVROLET BUT THEY JUST SAID TO WATCH IT. WE ARE TAKING IT BACK TOMORROW. AUGUST 14, 2018.

WHILE TAPPING THE BRAKES, THE VEHICLE'S HEADLIGHTS WILL DIM OCCASIONALLY. 2 TIMES NOW WHILE TAPPING THE BRAKES, THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD (INCLUDING THE TOUCHSCREEN) TURN OFF AND RESTART. THE FIRST TIME WAS TRAVELLING ON A HIGHWAY AND THE SECOND TIME WAS ON MY DRIVEWAY, I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE ENTIRE CAR SHUT DOWN, INCLUDING THE POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, AND ENGINE. THAT TIME I ROLLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND INTO THE ROAD. I WAS LUCKY NO ONE WAS COMING

MY 2014 GMC SIERRA IS HAVING A MAJOR BRAKE ISSUE. I REPLACED THE BRAKE PADS AFTER BEING TOLD THE PADDING WAS LOW. THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. MY TRUCK DOES NOT SLOW DOWN WHEN BRAKING ON A HILL. I READ IN ANOTHER ARTICLE THAT THE VACUUM PUMP GOES OUT AT A LOW RPM, CAUSING THE TRUCK NOT TO STOP. UNFORTUNATELY, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK DOWN THE DRIVEWAY, AND COULDN'T STOP. THIS ISSUE ALMOST CAUSED HER TO HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE THAT WAS PASSING AT THE END OF THE DRIVEWAY.

DISCHARGE HOSE FAILED CAUSING AIR CONDITIONING TO NOT FUNCTION. IT LEAKED AT THE BEND, NEAR THE COMPRESSOR. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AS THERE WAS A BRACKET MADE TO REDUCE VIBRATION AND INCREASE LIFE OF HOSE. VERY MANY FAILURES OF THIS HOSE AND CONDENSER.

WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 10,000 MILES I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER TO INSPECT THE STEERING BECAUSE OF A BINDING/CLUNKING NOISE WHILE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL AT A STOP OR SLOW SPEED. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE THE NOISE AT THAT TIME. AROUND 17.000 MILES, THE NOISE HAD GOTTEN WORSE AND THEY WERE ABLE TO LOCATE IT AND REPLACED THE STEERING BOX AS WELL AS THE RACK AND PINION STEERING. AGAIN, A LITTLE AFTER 30,000 MILES THE NOISE WAS BACK BUT INTERMITTENT. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT HEAR IT AND SAID THE STEERING WAS FINE. YESTERDAY, WITH 40,000 MILES, THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE STEERING GEAR BOX NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN AS SOMETHING IS BINDING INSIDE ON THE REPLACEMENT STEERING BOX. GM IS DENYING THIS ISSUE YET MY RESEARCH SHOWS MANY PEOPLE WITH THE 2014 GMC SIERRA HAVE OR HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE ONE TECHNICIAN EVEN TOLD ME HIS STEERING GEAR BOX ON HIS 2014 1500 SIERRA HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND COMPLEY FAILED. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS ELECTRONIC GEAR BOX WAS INTRODUCED IN 2014 AND CHANGED FOR A DIFFERENT STEERING BOX IN 2015 MODELS. AN APPARENT ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF THE PROBLEM.

STALBILITY CONTROL SYSTEM SUDDENLY WENT OUT WHEN BRAKING ON DRY SURFACE. VEHICLE ENGINE WAS DISABLED CAUSING TEMPORARY LOSS OF CONTROL. THE LATEST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED WHILE TRAVELING AT LISTED SPEEDS ON INTERSTATE 75. I HAVE SAFETY ONCERNS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE AIR CONDITIONER UNIT BLEW OUT HOT AIR THROUGH THE VENTS. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (BECKER BUICK GMC INC, 636 EAST SPRAGUE AVE, SPOKANE, WA 99202) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR CONDENSER UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FREON HAD LEAKED OUT OF THE COMPARTMENT. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS WERE ON BACKORDER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: [XXX]. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,127. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT

RADIATOR COOLANT LEAKING. EITHER A CRACK IN RADIATOR OR THE HOSES ARE LEAKING. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH MY 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SEAT, A WARNING LIGHT FOR MY POWER STEERING COMES UP ON MY DASH AND IMMEDIATELY I LOSE MY POWER STEERING AND HAVE TO TRY TO PULL MY WHEEL SO I CAN STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. AFTER TURNING MY TRUCK OFF AND RESTARTING IT MY POWER STEERING COMES BACK AND DRIVE IT HOME. I CALL THE DEALERSHIP AND THERE IS A RECALL FOR MY TRUCK AND I BRING IT IN. 2 DAYS AFTER THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM A GET THE SAME WARNING LIGHT AND LOSE MY POWER STEERING AGAIN WITH MY DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SEAT. I TAKE MY TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TELL THEM MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT AGAIN. NOT 24 HOURS AFTER I GET MY TRUCK BACK FOR THE 2ND TIME MY POWER STEERING GOES OUT AGAIN DRIVING DOWN CITY STREET. BRINGING MY TRUCK IN FOR THE 3RD TIME FOR THE SAME ISSUE, THE DEALERSHIP NOW SAYS I HAVE TO PAY THEM $142.00 FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY TRUCK. WHY AM I HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR AN ISSUE GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT SINCE 2009?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH AND ATTEMPTING TO STOP, THE BRAKING SYSTEM FAILED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE DRIVER DOWNSHIFTED AND THE VEHICLE COASTED UNTIL STOPPED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A FAILED VACUUM PUMP BELT IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER (SUN BUICK GMC INC, 3333 SUNRISE HWY, WANTAGH, NY) WERE BOTH NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 91,000.
