2015 GMC SIERRA 1500 Complaints

PROBLEM PRESENTED AS ENGINE DYING AT STOP SIGNS AND PROGRESSED TO ENGINE MISS WITH RANDOM ENGINE STOP. WAS SENT TO SHOP 3 TIMES OVER A EIGHT WEEK PERIOD WITH NO RESOLUTION TO PROBLEM.

I PURCHASED MY FIRST NEW VEHICLE IN OCT OF 2015. I'VE OWNED 4 VEHICLES SINCE I'VE HAD MY LICENSE, 2 DODGES AND 2 BMWS. I CHOSE A TRUCK I'VE DREAMED OF HAVING SINCE I WAS 16. I'M CURRENTLY 28. I CHOSE THE SIERRA DENALI. NOT ONLY WAS THIS MY FIRST NEW VEHICLE BUT THIS WAS MY FIRST TRUCK AND MY FIRST GM PRODUCT OF MY LIFE. NOW I'M TEETERING ON IT BEING MY LAST. THROUGH THE 14 MONTHS I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE (SINCE 4 MILES) I'VE HAD NUMEROUS ISSUES. MY FRONT DIFFERENTIAL HAS BEEN REBUILT NOT ONCE BUT TWICE. MY TRUCK HAS 45K ON IT. IT HAS NEVER TOWED HAULED OR OTHER WISE PERFORMED A TASK REQUIRING IT'S POWER OTHER THAN NORMAL DRIVING. IT HAS BEEN BABIED. CLEANED WASHED OIL CHANGED TIRES ROTATED AND 93 OCTANE FILL UPS. AMONGST OTHER ISSUES WERE THE INFOTAINMENT CENTER FREEZING. CVS AXLE SHAFTS PERFORMING ERRATIC ALONG WITH BUCKING SLAMMING AND NOISES THROUGH THE POWER TRAIN. A RANDOM LEAK IN THE LOWER OIL PAN THAT THE DEALER SAID WAS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT THEY WERE AWARE OF. A AIRBAG SOFTWARE SAFETY RECALL AND A SHIFTING DRIVER SEAT THAT TENDS TO MOVE A BIT DURING CORNERING. NOW TO TOP ALL OF THOSE ISSUES OFF IN THOSE 14 MONTHS I NOW HAVE A LEAK THE EXTENDS OUT FROM THE EDGE ABOUT 5 INCHES FROM THE REAR WINDSHIELD ALL THE WAY FROM THE DRIVER SIDE TO PASSENGER SIDE. I'M NOT IN BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD 100 DOLLARS AND IT WILL BE FIXED. IT SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BE FIXED. NONE OF IT SHOULD HAVE. I HAVE HAD LESS ISSUES IN ALL 4 OF MY LAST VEHICLES PUT TOGETHER THAN THIS 1 VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED FOR 14 MONTHS AND I BOUGHT IT NEW. THIS HAS BEEN A BIG LET DOWN. A DISAPPOINTMENT 12 YEARS IN THE MAKING APPARENTLY. ONE THAT HAS MORE THAN RUINED MY DAY. I HONESTLY DON'T WANT THIS TRUCK. IT'S SCARRED FOR LIFE. THAT'S OBVIOUS AND NOT REVERSIBLE. BUT NOW I'M UNDER WATER ON A LOAN FOR A TRUCK THAT'S NOT WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN SCRAP METAL. THAT'S NEITHER RIGHT NOR FAIR. *TR

TRUCK HAS VIBRATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND GAS PEDAL BETWEEN THE SPEEDS 30-75 MPH. WHEN DRIVING THE TRUCK AT ANY OF THE LISTED SPEEDS AND HAVE THE SPEED STEADY AT SAID SPEED, VIBRATION CAN BE FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND GAS PEDAL IN THE 2WD AND 4WD-AUTO MODES. ALSO WHEN THE ENGINE SHIFTS FROM V8 TO V4 MODES. TRUCK HAS BEEN TO THREE (3) DEALERS SO FAR AND DID NOT SEE MUCH IMPROVEMENT IN THE VIBRATION. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ARE TOTALLY INADEQUATE FOR NIGHT DRIVING. ADD A BIT OF RAIN AND IT IS REALLY SCARY. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK NEW IN 4/2106 AND THERE IS A CLICKING SOUND WHEN ENGINE IS RUNNING. IS THIS NORMAL?

HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM, (HIGH AND LOW BEAM), THAT THEY SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

ON TUESDAY, DECEMBER 20TH 2016 AT APPROXIMATELY 7:15PM WHILE DRIVING SOUTH ON NEW RIVER ROAD IN LINCOLN RI I TRIED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ONTO A SIDE STREET. WHEN I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT IT WAS SNATCHED OUT OF MY HANDS AND THE STEERING WHEEL AUTOMATICALLY TURNED BACK TO CENTER IT SELF. I COULD NOT MANEUVER THE VEHICLE AS IT ROLLED UP ONTO THE SIDEWALK WHERE I HAD TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO FORCE THE VEHICLE FROM ROLLING INTO A TREE. THE VEHICLE DIC DISPLAYED "PARK ASSIST" AND AFTERWARDS THE VEHICLE WENT COMPLETELY DEAD...NO LIGHTS OR SOUNDS WHEN I TRIED TURNING THE KEY TO RESTART IT. LIFTED UP THE HOOD AND ALL THE ELECTRONICS CAME BACK ON AND VEHICLE STARTED. DIC PROMPT DISPLAYED "OPEN AND THEN CLOSE THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW" HAD VEHICLE TAKEN TO DEALER FOR SERVICE. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS IN THIS VEHICLE ARE UNSAFE. THE ARE DIM AND ONLY PROJECT OUT A SHORT DISTANCE AND VERY LITTLE TO THE PERIPHERY. THERE IS ALSO A DARK LINE IN THE FIELD OF VIEW WHERE ABOVE IT IS DARK AND BELOW IS DULL LIGHT. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP AND THE SOLUTION WAS TO UPGRADE THE LIGHT BULBS WHICH THEY DID. THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I ESCALATED IT TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION.

HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE USELESS,CAN'T SEE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND ALWAYS FEEL LIKE I'M OVERDRIVING THE LIGHTS EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT EVEN AT THE SPEED LIMIT! *TR

EXTREME LAG/DELAY- HARSH ENGAGEMENT WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO REVERSE. ITS LIKE YOU ARE BACKING INTO SOMETHING? WHEN CRUISING 28-32 MPH AND RELEASING ACCELERATOR(AS IF YOU WERE COASTING INTO A TURN) WHEN SLOWING THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO SHIFT UP AND LUNGE ENTERING THE TURN. CLUNKS AND SHIFTS HARD WHEN CRUISING NORMALLY WHEN YOU HAVE TO RELEASE THE GAS PEDAL AND SLIGHTLY REACCELERATE, CAUSING THE DRIVER TO HESITATE. VEHICLE SHUTTERS AND HARD ACCEL 10X WORSE WHEN TOWING A 7000 # TRAILER (TRUCK IS RATED OVER 12,000 LBS. TOWING).
