2009 GMC Sierra 1500

These are unverified consumer reports filed with NHTSA, shown as submitted.

• 12/23/2024· AIR BAGS

  General Published an article about the Takata Airbag recall stating that the dashboard would be inspected prior to doing the recall work and if already cracked or damaged the dashboard would not be replaced. My dash board is like new with no damage or cracks. The dealer told me (contrary to this article) that if their service men damaged my dashboard while doing the recall replacement I would be responsible for any replacement even if my dashboard is in perfect condition prior to the work. I find this unacceptable and will not have my airbag replaced under these conditions. The dealer/GM should be responsible for any damage they cause during the repair.

• 12/23/2016· UNKNOWN OR OTHER

  MULTIPLE CRACKS IN DASHBOARD TOP INCLUDING DASH CRACKS NEAR PASSENGER AIRBAG. ONE CRACK APPEARED, THEN MORE CRACKS SOON FOLLOWED. SENT LETTERS TO GM EXECUTIVES WHO REPLIED BACK THAT AGE AND MILEAGE OF TRUCK WAS TOO FAR OUTSIDE WARRANTY. NO CONSOLATION OFFERED EXCEPT A MINOR CREDIT TOWARD NEW VEHICLE PURCHASE. TRUCK IS METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED AND CRACKS POSE SAFETY CONCERN DURING POTENTIAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

  CRACKED DASH ABOVE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG ON MY 2009 GMC SIERRA AND MY 2007 CHEVROLET AVALANCHE. COULD CAUSE A SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED AND IS NOT AESTHETICALLY PLEASING CONSIDERING THE MONEY SPENT ON THE VEHICLE.

• 12/16/2020· SERVICE BRAKES

  AT AROUND 4,000 MILES THE FRONT BRAKES SQUEALED OFTEN, MOSTLY WHEN IT HAD BEEN SITTING FOR A WHILE. (BRAKE PADS HAD A LOT OF MEAT LEFT). AT AROUND 10,000 MILES THE BRAKES STARTED GRABBING WHILE DRIVING. I PLAYED WITH THE E-BRAKE SOME SINCE THIS IS THE MOST COMMON CULPRIT, AND THE GRABBING WENT AWAY SOON AFTERWARDS. FAST FORWARD TO 80,000 MILES WHERE I CHANGED OUT THE FRONT BRAKE PADS. THE SPRING RETAINER CLIPS WERE COMPLETELY DESTROYED, AND THE PADS HAD SIGNS OF GRABBING (HAD UNEVEN WEAR). MY NEW PADS ARE SQUEALING JUST LIKE THE FIRST SET OF PADS DID. I'M ASSUMING THE SPRING RETAINERS ARE HITTING THE ROTOR, SQUEALING, AND EVENTUALLY BREAKING. I CAN ONLY GUESS THAT MY NEW PADS WILL BE GRABBING IN A FEW THOUSAND MILES.

  2009 GMC SIERRA 1500 DASH IS CRACKED UP THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIR BAG COMES OUT

• 12/10/2019· AIR BAGS,STRUCTURE

  THE VEHICLE CONTAINS TAKATA AIRBAGS THAT AN OPEN RECALL WAS STARTED 3 YEARS AGO FOR BUT A DECISION HAS NEVER BEEN MADE. THE DASH HAS NOW CRACKED NEAR THE AIRBAGS. IF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY THEY COULD CAUSE SHRAPNEL FROM THE DASH TO BE PUT INTO THE CABIN. THERE IS AN OPEN LAWSUIT IN THE US AND CANADA WITH GM IN REGARDS TO THE DASH. THE VEHICLE IS ALSO DISPLAYING INTERMITTENT AIRBAG SERVICE ERROR MESSAGES. GM WILL NOT DIAGNOSE THE AIRBAG ISSUE FOR FREE AND WANT'S ANYWHERE FROM $150-$250 SIMPLY TO READ THE CODE PLUS WHATEVER THE REPAIR WOULD COST. GM ALSO WANTS $1500-$2000 TO REPLACE THE DASH. GM HAS DEEMED THIS VEHICLE "SAFE" BUT WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THAT "SAFE" DESIGNATION BY DIAGNOSING THE AIRBAG ISSUE FOR FREE. THE AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT STARTED OFF VERY INFREQUENTLY AND HAS STARTED TO BECOME MORE FREQUENT. I HAVE ALSO BEEN CUT BY THE DASH ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, WHICH PRESENTS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD. GM CORPORATE WILL NOT GIVE ANY TIMELINE TO A RESOLUTION AND WILL ONLY PAY FOR REPAIRS ONCE THE NHTSA FORCES THEM INTO A RECALL. A "SAFE" VEHICLE DOES NOT INJURY IT'S USERS OR REPORT ERRORS WITH ITS SAFETY SYSTEMS FREQUENTLY.

  THROTTLE BODY UNIT ON 2009 GMC SIERRA TRUCK BURNED OUT & NEEDED REPLACING AT 38 THOUSAND MILES. GMC PAID FOR MY REPAIR AFTER MANY CONVERSATIONS WITH THEM, EVEN THO THEY STATED IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. I PUT THE MONEY OUT TO HAVE IT FIXED, THEY ARE REIMBURSING ME VIA CHECK TO MY HOME ADDRESS. MY CO-WORKER HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO HIM ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO, HIS THROTTLE BODY UNIT BURNED OUT ON HIS CHEVY SILVERADO, HIS IS OUT OF WARRANTY AS WELL, HIS TRUCK IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. HE WAS TOLD WHEN HE WENT TO GET HIS REPAIRED THE PART WAS ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER. THIS SOUNDS LIKE THESE ARE GOING BAD ALL OVER!!! *TR

• 12/08/2022· POWER TRAIN

  Yes, the airbag has not been replaced but I have another SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM with this vehicle: The stabilitrak system does NOT work, it is NOT POSSIBLE to shift into gear, if the vehicle is put into use there is a definite possibility that the truck will go into LIMP MODE with a very limited speed (20 mph?) while trying to keep up with the traffic flow at 75+mph while the. transmission searches for which gear and wheel to apply power. This is a frightening experience to say the least. And I am without my work truck (and work) for more than 4 months because GMC has no ETA for parts to repair this problem. I guess this is NOT. safety issue in reality since I cannot/ will not drive this piece of dangerous GENERAL MOTORS engineering nightmare. When I search for solutions to this problem I find that there are many many GM vehicles (cars,suvs,vans, trucks) experiencing the same SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS situations. It is time to investigate this company before it shutters its doors and moves offshore to leave their junk in the United States without responsibility for repairs or accidents.

  Early October my passenger side airbag deployed and I was sitting in the drivers seat and had just put the key into the key hole but did not turn the key to start the vehicle. 3 weeks later I was going into the passenger side of the vehicle and the key was in my pocket and the drivers side airbag deployed. Both times the vehicle was not started and the airbags deployed I called GMC and they had the vehicle towed to a dealer to investigate why the airbags deployed. They said it was a sensor that was corroded and that’s why the airbags deployed. I asked GMC, why didn’t the sensor left the driver know that it was going bad, just like it notifies the driver if you have low tire pressure or needs an oil change. I had no notifications that the airbags were going to deploy. I’m so grateful that no one was driving the vehicle when they deployed. GMC said the vehicle is not safe to drive so they had it towed from my house to the dealership and then back to my house however they said they are not taking responsibility for the deployment and said it’s my responsibility to get the airbags fixed. I told GMC that I was filing a complaint with you all. Thank you for looking into this matter.
