Motor home / camper body. Parked for the winter. Plugged in but occasionally run to ensure batteries are charged. Vehicle has 25,400 miles on it. Outside air temperature about 20 F. started vehicle and dash displays warnings: Engine operating at reduced power and engine overheated A/C turned off. Scanned the ECM for codes and was able to clear these two malfunction indicators. The tool also revealed a premiant code of "P1682 (1/1), ignition 1 switch circuit 2". module # : $7E8 and module# $7ea. This code will not clear until a repair is made. Research reveals that this ignition problem is prevalent among many makes and models of Chevrolet and GM vehicles between the years from 2014 to 2018. And could cause the vehicle to stall while being driven. Research also shows that this problem generally occurs when the weather is warmer. Not when it is as cold as it was when my malfunction occurred. Oddly, in spite of the prevalence of this problem among Chevy and GM vehicle for those years, there has never been a recall.

Currently have a recall on my vehicle (N172086770). Since the original recall in 2018, I've made several attempts with the General Motors to have this issue repaired. As of this date, 7/12/2020, they have been unwilling to fix the problem. I have several case numbers with the company because I've had numerous conversations with them. They keep changing the case numbers in an effort to discourage me from having the problem (a problem they caused) fixed. Please reference dot reference number 9064677 filed on or around 6/8/2020.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Express. The contact stated that the air bag warning indicator suddenly illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to grand prize Chevrolet Buick GMC (located at 32 rte 304, nanuet, NY 10954, 854-367-7516) where it was diagnosed that the air bag sensor failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 77,000.
