ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHEN TAKING AN OFF RAMP, TRANSITIONING FROM A CRUISING SPEED OF 65 MPH. VERY DIFFICULT TO NAVIGATE THE TURN AND COULD HAVE EASILY RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT IF IT HAD OCCURRED IN A HEAVY TRAFFIC SITUATION OR IN ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS. TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF, SAT FOR 15 MINUTES, STARTED AND THE CONDITION WAS GONE. TOOK VEHICLE STRAIGHT TO DEALER FOR REPAIRS.

RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2019 GMC SIERRA AND IT SHIFTS HARD AT LOWER SPEEDS OR WHEN MOVING FROM A STOPPED POSITION AND THEN ACCELERATING, OR WHEN DECELERATING. WHILE PARKING THE CAR AT ONE POINT THE SHIFT WAS SO HARD THAT IT FELT LIKE A HIT, AND THEN THE KIDS CONFUSEDLY ASKING "WHAT WAS THAT?". GM IS GIVING US THE RUNAROUND AND UNWILLING TO FIX WHAT I HAVE NOW FOUND OUT, HAS BEEN A KNOWN PROBLEM. THEY BASED EVERYTHING OUT OF WHAT THE MODULES REPORT WHEN THE CAR IS HOOKED UP TO THE COMPUTER. BASICALLY, IF THE MODULES ARE OK THEN THE CAR IS REPORTEDLY OK. NOT THE CASE.

JUNE 27TH I WAS LEAVING A GAS STATION IN NOVATO CA WITH MY DAUGHTER AND FATHER IN THE TRUCK. I SLOWLY STARTED MOVING THROUGH THE STATION AND NOTICED MY BRAKES WERE ALMOST COMPLETELY GONE. FORTUNATELY I WAS CLOSE TO HOME SO I DROPPED DOWN TO FIRST GEAR AND SLOWLY MOTORED HOME TO WAIT FOR THE TOW TRUCK. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO THE NOVATO CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TRUCK. I THEN BEGAN THE PROCESS OF REQUESTING GM TO BUY THIS TRUCK BACK AND ITS DEFINITELY NOT GOING TO BE A SHORT PROCESS. IM STILL CURRENTLY DRIVING THIS THING WITH NO DIAGNOSIS OF ANY BRAKE ISSUE. MY WIFE WON'T EVEN GET INTO THE TRUCK. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS TRUCK AND WISH THERE WAS A DEFINITIVE ANSWER TO WHAT HAPPENED. GM CORPORATE SAID IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN TO PLEASE BRING IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR EVAL. IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN?!!! IM NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT THE AIR COOLED SEATS NOT WORKING PROPERLY! I DRIVE A FIRE ENGINE FOR A LIVING AND MY JOB IS TO KEEP OTHERS SAFE. NOW I'M HAVING TO DRIVE THIS THING WHILE WAITING FOR GM TO STEP UP AND BUY THIS BACK BEFORE THE BRAKES GO OUT AGAIN. I SUPPOSE SOMEONE WILL HAVE TO DIE BEFORE GM ACKNOWLEDGES THERE'S AN ISSUE HERE.

TL *THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHEN THE CONTACT STARTED THE VEHICLE, THE 'BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE 62 MPH TOP SPEED', TRAILER BRAKE, SERVICE ESC, AND STEERING ASSIST INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. ALSO, WHILE THE CONTACT WAS TESTING THE BRAKES IN A PARKING LOT, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME SOFT AND FELT AS IF IT COULD EXTEND TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT HE HAD TO APPLY EXCESSIVE FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 750.

PICKED UP MY 2019 SIERRA AT4. I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT, GOT ABOUT 3 MILES. STOPPED TO GET MYSELF A CUP OF COFFEE. GOT BACK INTO THE TRUCK, STARTED IT AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, THE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE, THE ABS LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL ETC. CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IT BACK. (MIND YOU, I'VE ONLY ACTUALLY OWNED THE 63K TRUCK FOR AN HOUR) I BRING THE TRUCK BACK, THEY TAKE IT IN FOR ABOUT 20 MINS AND THEN THE MECHANIC TAKES THE CAR FOR A TEST DRIVE. HE'S GONNA ABOUT 15 MINUTES OR SO, COMES BACK AND SAYS THE TRUCK IS GOOD. THEY FIXED A RECALL RECENTLY BUT NEVER "RESET THE COMPUTER" HE SAYS "YOU'RE GOOD TO GO" I DRIVE THE 30 MINUTES HOME, PULL UP TO THE HOUSE, TURN THE TRUCK OFF. GO INSIDE TO GET MY LITTLE ONES BECAUSE THEY WANT TO GO FOR A RIDE IN DADDY'S NEW TRUCK.. WE GO OUTSIDE, I START THE TRUCK, AND IT'S THE SAME THING THESE ARE THE CODES THAT CAME UP. IT HAS BEEN BACK TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY HAVEM'T FOUND ANY ISSUE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. SERVICE ESC SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE - 62 MPH TOP SPEED STEERING ASSIST REDUCED DRIVE WITH CARE

ON 5/28/19 I FILLED MY 2019 GMC SIERRA DENALI AT THE LOCAL GAS STATION. AS USUAL I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF. AFTER FUELING, I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND BEGAN PULLING OUT OF GAS STATION. UPON EXITING I LOST ALL BRAKING POWER AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I WAS GOING APPROX. 5 MPH. I PULLED OVER AND HAD TO STEP ON THE BRAKE PEDAL UNTIL IT WAS ON THE FLOOR WITH EXTREME FORCE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. AT APPROX. 4:41PM I RECIEVED AN ONSTAR EMAIL WITH AN ANTILOCK BRAKE PROBLEM. EMAIL SUGGESTED I TAKE THE VEHICLE FOR SERVICE WITHIN 7 DAYS. I HAD GMC ROADSIDE TOW THE TRUCK FROM MY HOME TO THE NEAREST DEALER(STATEN ISLAND BUICK GMC) I LEASED THE VEHICLE FROM COLEMAN BUICK GMC AND WHEN I CONTACTED THEM I WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T HELP AND THE DEALER THE TRUCK WAS TOWED TO IS STILL GM. I ALSO CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE. RECEIVED A CASE # AND WAITING TO BE CONTACTED. AS PER COLEMAN THE VEHICLE HAS RECALLS FOR A TRAILER BRAKE MODULE AND PARK ASSIST. AS PER SI BUICK GMC THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY COMPUTER CODES. THE HYDRAULIC TEST SHOWED NO ISSUES. THEY CLAIM TO HAVE UPGRADED THE COMPUTER AND THE TRUCK WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AS OF 5/30. THEY WANT TO TEST DRIVE AGAIN ON 5/31 AND I ASSUME I'LL BE ASKED TO PICK UP MY TRUCK. I FIND THIS TO BE UNACCEPTABLE AND A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. THANKFULLY I WAS GOING 5MPH WHEN I LOST FULL BRAKING. I WAS TOLD IF THE ISSUE HAPPENS AGAIN TO BRING THE TRUCK BACK IN FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND REPAIR AS NEEDED. THIS SAFETY ISSUE CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE PHYSICAL INJURY AND OR PROVE TO BE FATAL. DEPENDING ON TECHNOLOGY TO DETERMINE BRAKING CAPACITY IS ABSURD. 2019 GMC SIERRA ALSO HAVE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS DULY NOTED BY CUSTOMERS. FORUMS ALSO MARK THE SAME BRAKING PROBLEMS HAVE OCCURRED WITH OTHER OWNERS IN DIFFERENT STATES. A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED FOR THE SAFETY OF DRIVERS, PASSENGERS AND PEDESTRIANS! LIVES ARE AT RISK AND A RECALL IS NEEDED!
