  Automatic fuel management system failure has caused a p0300 code as multiple misfire diagnosed to cylinder 4 dead with no compression. This vehicle is no longer drivable and I still owe $21,000. GM knows of this failure for a long time. At current I have no way to pay for repairs and making payments on a truck I can not drive. I bought this vehicle used at 83,000 miles and have put 16,000 miles on it in 2 1/2 years

  I have not had any incidents thank goodness. But I did take it to the shop and they told me as the vacuum pump. It wouldn’t stop my vehicle and I was always nervous about hitting someone or causing an accident. Before then, I had change the breaking pad, taking it to the shop to check on their transmission and none of that was the problem. Please make a recall on this. People could cause or be involving in an accident. It mostly happened when I’m driving in slow between 2-5 miles per hour. It always scare me when backing out of my driveway because the brakes wouldn’t work. I do not have any pictures. I would rather take this to get fixed before causing an accident.

• 12/26/2018· SERVICE BRAKESCrash

  MY TRUCK HAS HAD 3 INSTANCES OF THE BRAKES NOT WORKING CORRECTLY IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS. EACH TIME MY BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO PRESS DOWN AND MY TRUCK DID NOT STOP IN THE MANNER IT SHOULD HAVE. EACH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IT WAS AFTER STOPPING AND PUTTING THE TRUCK INTO REVERSE TO PARK IT. THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME HARD AND WOULDN'T GO DOWN THE WAY IT SHOULD. AFTER EACH INCIDENT AND PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE THE SAME HARD PEDAL PREVENTED THE BRAKES FROM WORKING CORRECTLY GOING FORWARD. AFTER STOPPING, TURNING OFF THE ENGINE AND RE STARTING THE VEHICLE THE BRAKES WORKED FINE. I FOUND A BULLETIN ONLINE THAT GENERAL MOTORS PUT OUT WHERE A MECHANIC INSPECTION SHOULD BE PERFORMED TO CHECK IF ANY OIL WAS IN THE BRAKE VACUUM LINE LEADING INTO THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER WITH THE OIL STEMMING FROM THE BRAKE VACUUM PUMP. UPON INSPECTION THERE WAS NO OIL FOUND AND MY MECHANIC PERFORMED AN OVERNIGHT PRESSURE TEST ON THE VACUUM PUMP ITSELF AND THE FOLLOWING DAY FOUND THERE WAS NO VACUUM LEAK DETECTED. THIS TEST WAS PERFORMED ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO AFTER MY SECOND INCIDENT. MY 3RD INCIDENT HAPPENED THIS PAST FRIDAY 12/21/2018. MY TRUCK DID NOT STOP THE WAY IT SHOULD HAVE BACKING INTO A PARKING SPOT AND I WOUND UP HAVING MY TRUCK DRIVE INTO A CHAIN LINK FENCE AS MY BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN GOT REALLY HARD AND MY BRAKES FAILED. I AM VERY CONCERNED NOW THAT THERE IS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW THAT DEVELOPED FROM A CASE OF POOR QUALITY MATERIALS USED IN THE MAKING OF THE PARTS OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM. MY TRUCK IS RARELY USED IN A ROUGH OR CARELESS MANNER, RARELY PERFORMS TOWING AND HAS 88,000 MILES ON IT. A RECALL IS WAY OVERDUE REGARDING THE BRAKING SITUATION.

  WHILE MOVING FROM A STOP THE TRUCK SOMETIMES LAGS IN ACCELERATION WHICH MAY CAUSE THE OPERATOR TO DEPRESS THE ACCELERATOR FURTHER THAN REQUIRED TO ENTER TRAFFIC. THIS CONDITION ALSO MAY CAUSE A SHORT ACCELERATION DELAY WHEN PULLING INTO TRAFFIC THAT CAN BE UNEXPECTED BY THE OPERATOR. I HAVE BEEN SURPRISED MANY TIMES BY THIS OPERATOR DISCONNECT ACCELERATING FROM A STATIONARY POSITION. AFTER DRIVING MY NEW TRUCK 900 MILES I INVESTIGATED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSEMBLY BRACKET TO FIND THAT THE ENTIRE BRACKET IS NOT PROPERLY FASTENED STRUCTURALLY TO THE FIRE WALL BY DESIGN. I INSPECTED MY TRUCK ON 12/23/14 AND FOUND THIS PROBLEM, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BRACKET FLEX ON MY TRUCK LOOKS TO BE ~3/4" TO 1" BEFORE THE ELECTRONIC LINKAGE ENGAGES. THE PEDAL TIP-IN ENGAGEMENT HAS TO FLEX THE MOUNTING BRACKET BEFORE THE ELECTRONIC ACCELERATION SWITCH ENGAGES. I CAN'T BELIEVE THE GM ENGINEERING AND DESIGN TEAM'S WOULD APPROVE OF SUCH A FLIMSY MOUNTING BRACKET FOR THIS IMPORTANT PART OF BASIC MOTOR VEHICLE OPERATION. I FEEL OVER TIME AND USAGE THAT THIS BRACKET MAY COMPLETELY FAIL AS CURRENTLY DESIGNED. I COULD SHIM AND INSTALL ADDITIONAL HARDWARE TO CORRECT THIS SAFETY ISSUE, BUT I FEEL THIS DESIGN ISSUE SHOULD BE ADDRESSED WITH GM BEFORE SOMEONE HAS A CRASH OR WORST. *TR

  I had 2 recalls done, one for power steering & one for brakes. My truck was not experiencing ANY problems before I had this recall done. The day I had it done I lost power steering while trying to park at Home Depot immediately after leaving dealership, almost causing me to hit the vehicle I was trying to park next to. Thinking it was a fluke, i drove it home afterwards & when I got on the highway to go home, I experienced a very loud metal on metal sound that only went away after applying the brakes. I don’t drive much since I work from home, however every time I drive it for 10 min or so, the sound came back followed by increased braking pressure to stop, also almost causing multiple accident and any time I was driving slow & trying to make tight maneuvers or turning my wheel too park or go through roundabouts I would lose power steering. I took it back to the dealership & was told the serpentine belt was not installed properly & they replaced the vacuum pump for the brakes. Told that the steering & brakes were fixed and after starting I wasn’t taking it back until it’s verified fixed by test driving for more than just a few minutes & parked multiple times, I was told it was ok. I went straight home & while on the highway, the sound reappeared & didn’t go away & pulling into my driveway, the steering failed again. I left multiple messages that weren’t returned & while recently on the hwy, I was hearing the sound & had play in the wheel, I slammed on the brakes after a semi almost hit me & my truck shook like it was falling apart & I called 800# scared to drive & I had difficulty steering & breaking & with no way to get home I had to drive it & took it to the dealership again & now they’re telling me I have to pay for diagnostics & I refuse to pay Chevy a dime since my truck was fine until Chevy’s incompetent mechanic made my truck unsafe to drive. They deleted my dash cam videos also. I have numerous videos showing everything.

  Vehicle less than 150,000 miles and transmission hasn't held up. Vehicle isn't driven hard its my daily driver to work. Transmission temperature exceeding 200 degrees on a short drive, hard shifting into 1,2,3,4 gears. I have done my research looking into other people that have had this trouble and it has become a well known problem with these vehicles. Everyone is experiencing trouble from the torque converters to the gears, and clutches. Its terrible that we are spending 10's of thousands of dollars on a vehicle that will not even hold up to 150,000 miles. These transmissions needs to be recalled and replaced. I have also done further extensive research that shows that from the GM Bulletin you can find documentation that shows that the 6L80 transmissions have problems with this exact issue. This Bulletin was published in June of 2020. If GM has listed 13 different models of 6L80 transmissions in different vehicles that are having such problems. Why hasn't this been recalled to make it right to the customers who have these vehicles. We are being ripped of our hard earned money and left with vehicles that are extremely expensive to have repaired or forced to let them go back or have no option but to trade it in and still be left with lots to pay on these vehicles.

I DO NOT DRIVE MY TRUCK AGGRESSIVELY, NOR IS THERE ANY REASON THE TRANS SHOULD HAVE FAILED TWICE WITH THE EXACT SCENARIO. IT HAD INCREASED RPMS ON THE ENGINE BUT TRUCK DID NOT MOVE.

THE BATTERY BEING REPLACED WAS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD AND IT WAS THE SECOND BATTERY THE DEALER HAD REPLACED IN LESS THAN 5 YEARS. THE INITIAL REPAIRS FAILED. ULTIMATELY, THE PROBLEM WAS A FAULTY STARTER MOTOR.

  For almost 8 months, the electrical system experiences complete malfuncation. First it was stabilitrac lighting up, the steering wheel would jerk out of my hands. To issue to mechanic where ground wire under passenger side was cleaned and re-installed. This seemed only a temporary fix. As of today, the 2014 Silverado 1500 LT is experiencing flickering dash lights, surging and dropping voltage (battery/alternator tested at normal driving levels), flickering healights. The worst of the situation is complete electrical malfuncation causing the truck to shut down while driving. This has happened twice in the last 2 weeks. It occurs when the vehicle comes to a stop, then when I try to turn, the voltage drops, dash flickers and the truck shuts down as I try to accelerate into a turn.
