Ac condenser leaking. Stuck in 4X4. Driver seat base moves
- Fayetteville, AR, USA
Ac is broke, GM has said this is a design flaw. I and many others are now waiting for a nation wide back ordered parts. I was told it may take up to two months for the parts. Please advise. Thank you
- Lancaster, NY, USA
Ac no longer blows cold air. While driving, the ac stopped blowing cold air and will not blow any more.

The condenser unit has cracked and come away for the structural housing causing the unit to leak freon meaning that the A/C does not work. This is a design fault for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado models through GM/Chevrolet and currently there is a national back order on the part (nr. 84211191). This shows that there are a large number of people experiencing this problem and as things stand Chevrolet cannot even give me an estimate as to when the part will become available again. I feel as though this should be grounds enough for some sort of reimbursement / recall.

I was never notified by Chevrolet about a recall that was released on September 2015 and I bought my vehicle in April 2015. I only had vehicle serviced by my local Chevy dealer "three way Chevrolet/automotive. They never notified me about the recall when it was still covered and now that the warranty is expired, they notified me saying that he would have to be covered out of pocket. I have previously taken my vehicle to have other recalls done while it was still under warranty and after a 4X4 issued recall was released. When I notified the service person about why it wasn't brought to my attention before, he stated their wasn't anything he could do.

My 2014 Silverado ltz 1500 has had a distracting vibration/shake since day one that is felt at almost all speeds. I notified them of immediately. They rebalanced the tires, it did not help. The changed all four tires two different times, it did not help. They did some special load balancing, it did not help. With 32K on it and my warranty running out I gave it back to them again for another rebalancing, that did not help. My brother fully agrees with me about the vibration/shake; we are both previous owners of Silverado 1500's that rode excellent. He now has a 2013 GMC Sierra that rides just fine. Frustrated with my ride and lack of resolution I test drove a 2016 Silverado ltz Z71 hoping to trade out of the issue; but the 2016 ride was no better. Chevrolet has an issue with these vehicles that needs to be resolved!
- Gilford, NH, USA
At around 15K miles the vehicle started shaking violently at speeds of 65-75 mph. It is hard to safely maintain highway speeds safely. I am very concerned for my safety and the safety of any passengers on the highway.
- Stallings, NC, USA
Electrical fire: My vehicle was having electrical issues. My radio would randomly change, turn on and off. The parking sensors would randomly go off even while driving forward, down the highway! I had a service appointment scheduled. However, prior to the appointment my vehicle burned up. The cause was found to be a control/computer board in the dash. The vehicle was parked at the time of the fire, it had been about 1 hour since driven last. I have several pictures, fire investigation report and insurance inspection report.

Vehicle is presently at the dealership for the fifth time. While driving with cruise, when changing lanes after turn signal is used the cruise shuts down. On several occasions while in the middle of a turn the dash lights flash, locks flip up N down, steering wheel jerks back N forth then vehicle dies. The incident that is reason for being in the shop now is, while in a parking lot, steering locked N unlocked, door locks again flipped up N down, vehicle died with no power. Could not unlock the vehicle, no power what so ever, key would no turn. Eventually I heard a psst noise and the power came back. The previous times taken to the dealer, I'm always told, cannot duplicate. This is a danger to me, my family. After being a faithful GM fan for over 40+ years they have lost this guy to another make of vehicle, especially after reading so many of the same complaints, as I, without resolve. They have lost my trust.

- Hardwick, VT, USA
Was driving to physical therapy. Pulled up to a stop light and "stabilitrack failure" poped up. Was pulling into the doctors office not 8 min L8R came up again but this time steering wheel locked up then un locked then locked up multiple times while I was trying to pull into a parking space. Thankfully I was going at an extremely low speed and I could control the vehicle between it locking and unlocking. When I left the doctors office I noticed my settings reset. Ex dashboard display showed the radio station instead of the fuel economy. I simply changed it and noticed the computer erased my previous fuel economy. I'm assuming theirs some malfunction between the computer and these systems. And from the looks of it my vehicle isn't the only vehicle with this issue. Now my check engine light is on and I'll be taking this back to the dealer and it will be fixed and never happen again or I won't purchase another GM vehicle.

A/C line on my new truck keeps on breaking, vehicle is out of warranty by 10,000 miles, however this is a known problem by the manufacture, they now want to sell me a bracket to prevent the line from viberatiing, which is the cause of this line breaking. I find this not fair to anyone who is having this problem with this GM product, Silverado or GMC Sierra equipped with this engine.
