Had the heated seats turned on one day, all of a suded felt a really hot sensation on my lower back. I turned them off thought it was just gett to hot. Got in the truck a couple of days later. The heated seat element burned a hole right thru the leather, even melted a spot on my sweater. Dealer said they have never heard of this issue only $800 for new covers and heat elements. My brother has a silverrodo same year, his heated seats stoped working all ready also.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. While driving 35 mph, the front driver and passenger seats became loose and began to shift independently. The contact could smell radiator fluid due to the fact that the radiator cracked. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the radiator was cracked and needed to be repaired. The radiator was repaired. The manufacturer was made of aware of the issue and stated that the VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number 14V446000 (seats). The approximate failure mileage was 50,000.

In late 2015, I began to feel the driver's seat loosen as I would go around a corner. At my next oil change at the dealership, I reported it. I was told that GMC would be sending new bolts to repair the problem. Here we are, July 2016 and my seat is loose. Going around turns, starting or stopping, my seat is moving. When I confronted an automobile tech, he said I need to start calling GM and hounding them. I believe this situation is getting serious and they know about the situation but are not responding.

If you raise the rear seat head restraints, they easily go back down. There is no locking in a higher position. Also they do not go up high enough to support an adult or someone about 5ft 6in or higher. There is also no head restraint in the middle back seat. I am very concerned these issues could cause serious injury to rear seat occupants in an accident.
