2019 GMC SIERRA 1500 Complaints

THIS MORNING WHEN I USED THE BACKUP CAMERA IT WAS PERFECTLY FINE. ONCE I GET TO WORK AND STARTED BACKING UP AT A SLIGHT TURN BC I WAS PARKING NEXT TO ANOTHER VEHICLE IT GAVE ME A BLUE SCREEN SAYING 'SERVICE REAR VISION SYSTEM'. IT ALSO DOES THIS WHILE STATIONARY. THIS IS A HIGHLY UNSAFE PROBLEM TO ME, BECAUSE IT DOESN'T ALLOW ME TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE SAFELY PUTTING ME AND OTHERS AT RISK.

UPON ACCELERATION MY "SERVICE ESC" INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON AND MY BRAKES BECAME NEARLY UNUSABLE AND LOOSE STEERING. I PULLED INTO A GAS STATION AND AFTER 5 MINUTES THE ERROR CLEARED. THIS HAPPENED THE PREVIOUS WEEK AND THE DEALER SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY CODES IN THE COMPUTER.

BRAND NEW TRUCK WITH LESS THAN 1250 MILES ON IT! ABS BRAKES FAILED. FORCED TO DRIVE ON DANGEROUS GRADE DOWN SIERRA NEVADAS WITH VERY LIMITED BRAKING. MESSAGE NOT TO DRIVE OVER 62 MPH. ERROR CODE C0580 ABS BRAKING AND STABILITY SYSTEM, ISSUE WITH ABS AND ERROR CODE P25A2 ECM ENGINE SYSTEM - ENGINE & TRANSMISSION NOT PERFORMING AS EXPECTED. OTHER CODES INCLUDEC2A17, U0100 U026A & U0415. GMC KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE POSSIBLE FIX BUT IS NOT ISSUING A RECALL. DEALER INDICATES REPROGRAMED THE BRAKE SYSTEM CONTROL MODULE.WAR CODE 28YN28687675. CLEARED THE DTC AND ROADTEST. FOUND THE LIGHTS DID NOT COME BACK ON AND THE BRACK SYSTEM IS WORKING OK (JUST "OK") NOW. ALSO, GMC WILL NOT CONFIRM THE PROBLEM WILL NOT REOCCUR AGAIN.

YOU CAN CONSTANTLY FEEL A BUMP,CLUNK & TRANSMISSION SLIP WHEN GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS I WAS PULLING A SMALL BOAT AND IT CAME OFF THE HITCH HITTING THE TRUCKS TAILGATE AND CAUSING DAMAGE TO IT. THIS WILL HAPPEN SECONDS AFTER DRIVE IS ALREADY ENGAGED. AFTER 3RD TIME I TOOK TO DEALER THE MECHANIC GAVE ME A GMC MEMO THAT STATES THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR THIS MODEL TRUCK TO DO THIS. MECHANIC STATED GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS. ARE YOU KIDDING ME ? SOUNDS LIKE POOR ENGINEERING. I WAS NEVER TOLD THIS WOULD HAPPEN PRE PURCHASE OR I WOULD OF NEVER BOUGHT THE TRUCK. HAVE HAD CONSTANT PROBLEMS WITH THIS TRUCK SINCE I BOUGHT IT. HAVE HAD THE SEAT BELT PILLAR COVER FALL OFF 3 TIMES DEALER SAYS THEY WILL CHANGE SEATBELT, WAITING OVER 2 MONTHS AND NO PARTS OR REPAIR. I HAVE A WARNING TO SERVICE BRAKE PAD SENSOR MONITOR. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T GET PARTS FOR IT YET BECAUSE GM IS ON STRIKE AND HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR PARTS AND REPAIR FOR OVER 2 MONTHS . HAVE HAD A STEERING WHEEL COLUMN WARNING ALSO. DEALER BLAMES EVERYTHING ON SOFTWARE ISSUE. MY DIAGNOSTIC REPORT EACH MONTH STATES TRUCK IS IN PERFECT ORDER EVEN THOUGH I HAVE HAD A WARNING LIGHT FOR OVER 2 MONTHS !!!!! NOW THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE SEATBELT PRETENSIONER THAT IT MIGHT CAUSE A FIRE ! WHAT A PIECE OF JUNK THIS TRUCK IS I TRIED TO SUPPORT THE AMERICAN ECONOMY BY BUYING AN AMERICAN TRUCK AND LOOK WHAT I GET ! I SHOULD OF BOUGHT A TOYOTA TUNDRA !!!!!!!

PUTTING VEHICLE IN REVERSE TURNS THE INTERIOR DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS (REVERSE CAMERA) ON AS BRIGHT AS IT GOES, LIKE A FLASHBULB GOING OFF RIGHT IN YOUR FACE. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT AND LEAVES TEMPORARY BLINDNESS WHICH AFFECTS THE ABILITY TO SEE OUT INTO THE DARKNESS AFTERWARDS. THERE IS NO ABILITY TO ADJUST THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE INTERIOR DISPLAY. I CAN EVEN TURN THE DISPLAY OFF AND SHIFTING INTO REVERSE TURNS THE CAMERA BACK ON WITH MAXIMUM BRIGHTNESS.

BRAND NEW TRUCK, DENALI, 10K MILES, STARTED VEHICLE WITH MULTIPLE WARNING SOUNDS/LIGHTS, DASH READ "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE 62MPH TOP SPEED", SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE SYSTEM", STEERING ASSIST IS REDUCED DRIVE WITH CARE" SERVICE ESC", POWER STEERING WAS VERY TOUGH TO STEER, BRAKING WAS SUPER REDUCED WITH FULL WEIGHT ON BRAKE TO TRY AND GET VEHICLE TO STOP. HAVE 3 CHILDREN UNDER 3 YEARS OF AGE AND NOT ACCEPTABLE GMC.

VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH NON HD CAMERA. WHICH OFTEN IS WHITE OUT VISIBILITY IN NIGHT TIME CONDITIONS. LINES SOMETIMES APPEAR ON SCREEN WHEN BRAKE IS DEPRESSED.

THE REAR VIEW CAMERA IS FISH EYED AND THE RESOLUTION IS TERRIBLE ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. THE DEALERSHIP AT FIRST SAID THAT THE CAMERA WAS OPERATING, AFTER CONTACTING GMC THEY LOOKED AT IT AND NOW SAY THERE IS A PROBLEM. NOW I SEE THAT THEY ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THESE CAMERA.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO A DEER. THE AIR BAG COVERS DETACHED, BUT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE WAS SMOKE DETECTED INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND THE SERVICE RESTRAINT MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HAZARD WARNING INDICATORS WERE ILLUMINATED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 9-56540909990. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE BACKUP CAMERA ON THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM IS BLINDINGLY BRIGHT AT NIGHT. WHEN YOU PUT THE TRUCK IN REVERSE THE BACKUP CAMERA POPS UP ON THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN AND BLINDS YOU MAKING IT A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD AS YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING OUT YOUR MIRRORS. THIS NEEDS CORRECTED SO THERE IS A BRIGHTNESS CONTROL TO ALLOW THE SCREEN TO BE DIMMED SO THAT YOU CAN SEE WHEN BACKING UP.
