This is the 3rd ac condenser that has failed on this same type of vehicle. GM refuses to acknowledge that is is a factory defective part and continues to charge customers $1,000's of dollars for repairs. There are hundreds of thousands of complaints from customers. Who is going to hold them accountable?

Austin, tx 2nd time ac goes out, truck has 67,000 miles. Previous failure (Nov, 2016 @ 39378 miles) was due to faulty line/design in refrigerant discharge hose. Had repaired by dealer and bracket installed. Sept. 2018, after leaving truck parked for several days while traveling, experienced warm air blowing out of vents upon return. Working with dealer to resolve, for the 2nd time.

Austin, tx while driving home with infant child, truck ac would not cool cabin in an unseasonably warm November afternoon. Took truck to dealership and diagnosed as crack in high side refrigerant discharge hose. Had it repaired & bracket installed. While having truck in shop became aware that this was an emerging issue and GM has not acted on resolving the design flaw.

Air conditioning-GM has known about the wide spread problem of there air conditioners in my truck as well as many other trucks just like mine. However they do not issue a recall for the problem which should have be done and many people agree on this issue because the part which is the condinser is a critical part in the air condition system
- Florence, SC, USA
Vehicle wont start, battery is fine, and electrical system went haywire, says to service each system seperately when trying to start. All passenger doors stopped locking and unlocking with key fobs and with door buttons as well. Completely stranded without a vehicle. The vehicle was stationary, fortunantly.

The air conditioner condenser has a small leak causing the refrigerant to leak out. This is a known problem with all GM Silverado 2014-2017 and a recall needs to be issued. They are all leaking in the same place due to a faulty weld from the factory. This is a $1200 repair.

I believe my truck has a manufacturer defect in the air conditioner condenser. My air conditioning stopped working and now only blows warm air. I was driving when this happened.
- Depere, WI, USA
The ac stopped working. All is does is blow hot air. After research this seems to be a very common problem on this vechile.
- Monroe Township, NJ, USA
57K on my 2014 Silverado and the ac went out. Blowing hot air on a 45thousand dollar truck isn't acceptable more research I found out that it's a condenser failure on theses truck is very wide spread not just a very small number of trucks please can you have Chevy do a recall to fix this or problem
- Muskegon, MI, USA
Per dealership the upper ac hose that hooks to the condenser will crack due to needing a bracket that was not installed at all. The cost for me to repair is 1200 to 1500 bit why when there is a known issue will Chevrolet not fix it. Please respond the a.C. worked fine one day and then absolutely nothing the next day. Does not cool at all. Can't afford to fix a Chevrolet error and prefer not to take it further. I would just like my a.C. to be fixed! please

A/C went out, coming up on some hot days. The A/C hose after only 41000 miles has worn a hole in it somehow. How is that possible? dealership in san leandro wants $750 to replace it. I have seen issues with the condensor wondering if people have complained about this as well.

A/C issues with truck, this truck and many other 2014/2015 Silverado's have issues, as anyone can look online and see. Iv called Chevrolet and told them of my problems and issues, they told me to file a complaint at this website
- Marshall, TX, USA
At only 42,000 miles (warranty is 36,00 or 3 years) there is a crack in my A/C hose. The A/C was blowing hot air. They found a cracked hose at dealership part # 2348932 needed to be replaced along with a bracket costing $750. This is ridiculous for a truck with very little mileage.

We have had trouble with our transmission going into neutral while driving. Loses power as if it were put into neutral. Also our air conditioning is horrible.

My 2014 Chevrolet Silverado has the Chevy shakes at highway speeds. The truck begins vibrating at 70-80 miles per hour. Begins to reduce the shaking between 80-83 and then shakes even worse at 85+mph. The shaking is so bad it causes water to shake out of a cup in the cup holder. Not only does the steering wheel vibrate, but the entire center console, and the front seats. The vibration didn't begin until I hit 60,000 miles and seems to worsen with the higher mileage. I now fear for my safety, because I skidded the in the rain due the vibration at highway speeds. I only have videos showing the vibration. Total bummer. I had my tires checked and balanced (which have been on the truck for 1 year +, prior to the vibration starting) my truck has lifetime alignment on it, and this is not the issue either.

Air compressor out in 2014 Silverado. Known defect and nothing is being done about
- Brighton, TN, USA
Truck shakes/vibrates at highway speeds above 65 mph very badly slight vibration at lower speeds also know as the Chevy shake

Air conditioning line rubs and breaks, tech. Bulletin has dealership install bracket at your cost of course. Problem is it breaks again, and you get to spend another 400 bucks so you can use the air-conditioning. This is a manufacturer design flaw. That comes at the consumers' expense.
- Midlothian, TX, USA
A/C only blows hot air, cannot defog windows at certain times and increases the likely hood of my newborn getting over heated. It is a known issue with General Motors and they said it is the NHTSA that will not do the recall because it is not dangerous. Well we will see how dangerous it is when we cant see because it will not defog window or what the hospital bill will be when my newborn overheats because of a faulty A/C compressor and bracket for the hose. A 2014 should not need a $1600 repair. That is 3 months payments for a A/C.
