My truck is a 2014 with only 53,000 miles on it. I bought it used in 2016. (it was still under factory warranty) When I tried to get my truck inspected last month the shop told me the frame had holes and cracks in it, was not safe to drive and needed repaired/replaced. I did some research and found SB 19-NA-255 regarding my truck. This issue seems to be a wide spread issue with that truck. I took it to the Chevrolet dealer I bought the truck from (WOOD Chevrolet in Carroltown, PA) to ask about the bulletin. They called their GM rep and he told them there was nothing they (GM or the dealer) could do about it. This is a known safety issue and I believe GM should take care of the repairs. Right now I had a vehicle that is not safe to drive, has very low miles and is not safe to drive.

I have a 2014 chevy silverado that I purchased brand new from the dealer. The truck just hit 100,000 miles and recently had a clunking noise from the rear undercarriage. After having it inspected, it has come to my attention that the frame is rusted and rear crossmembers are rusted out causing the rear shock mount to break, and I'm not sure if the frame is salvageable. After doing some research, I found a recall for my year silverado for the undercoating on the frame(not properly done from the factory) but my VIN is not in the recall. I'm at a loss being the year of the vehicle and mileage on the truck considering it might be undeliverable and unfixable

I have a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, covered by multiple Technical Service Bulletins regarding issues with premature frame rust due to a manufacturing issue. During the Factory Warranty Period, Chevrolet did not acknowledge or repair the issues noted in the TSBs. A 10 year old truck, with 81k miles on it is no longer safe to operate due to extensive damage to the frame from Chevrolet failing to fulfill their own commitments in resolving this issue. There has been no abuse or failures by myself as the owner that would result in the current unsafe condition. Due to this being an extremely widespread and known issue, this must be further investigated and upgraded to a full recall. Without a full on recall, unsafe vehicles will continue to be utilized on roadways, causing safety concerns to owners, passengers, and others on the roadway. Chevrolet has just refused to repair the damage due to the expiration of the factory warranty period. The vehicle was in possession of Chevrolet several times during the warranty period, but the resolution and repair was not completed. Per the TSB, this was to be completed and Chevrolet acknowledged the issue. Since not all dealerships have the ability or willingness to address this concern, Chevrolet must be put as the responsible party through a recall to rectify this, allowing owners to drive safe vehicles.

This truck has rust and giant holes in the frame, I'm not even sure if its safe to drive. I see that Chevy doesn't want to claim ownership of the manufacturing mistake. I can't even sell this truck because it would never pass a safety inspection. Chevy needs to be held accountable and do a recall to those of us who are stuck with the vehicles and fix their mistake. I don't even think a dealer would be able to accept as a trade in. I see other posts here that trade ins were refused due to the frame damage. YOUR AGENCY NEEDS TO DO ANOTHER OR FIRST INVESTIGATION REGARDING THIS SAFETY PROBLEM!!!

Steering assist disabled comes on while driving and Steering locks up and shuts everything off, and then starts back. Very Very dangerous on the road not knowing where or when you're not in control of the vehicle. When this occurs engine stops, no brakes.

After hearing loud noise from under the truck and a very rough ride coming from the rear of the truck, I found that the cross member which holds the shocks are completely rotted away and the shock is up into the bottom side of the truck bed.

During yearly inspection the mechanic noted excessive rust on frame components and warned that something should be done-??. I am on my third Silverado and frame coating, brake lines and transmission coolant lines have had issues with excessive rust. I bought this new in 2014 and hoped they had addressed these issues-?? over the previous Silverados I have owned. What recourse do I have towards GM. The truck has 50k.

My vehicle has approx 50,000 miles and the right rear shock tower, mounted to frame, rusted and broke away from the frame.

2014 Silverado frame has coating defect. Verified by a former Chevy employee. Frame us completely rusted and splitting and cracked. Just found this out and was told it could suddenly fail. The mechanic said I need to either fix immediately or get another car. This truck was bought and serviced by Best Chevrolet, and they never recalled anything or informed/warned me about it. There is a rich history of these 2014 frame rust defects across the web. I would have never known had the last mechanic not informed me. There are no warning on the vehicle for this. This truck has been well cared for. I have two kids with serious chronic diseases. I can-??t afford to fix or replace.

Control arms completely snapped on both sides of truck. One broke when backing into a parking space and the other I noticed a crack about 6 months after the first broke completely.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic where the contact was informed that the vehicle passed inspection; however, the lower passenger side ball joint needed replacement. The manufacturer and dealer were not notified. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 70,000.

- Pelham, NH, USA

On 7.3.2019, I was backing into a parking space when a loud noise occurred. I got out and my truck was sitting on the ground as my front driver side tire was broke off and resting on the ground. I had the vehicle towed to the nearest Chevy dealer and was told the control arm had failed causing my tire to break off. August 8th, this happened again but on the passenger side. Thankfully this happened at my home when pulling into the driveway. I am not sure how this has not been recalled seeing as this is obviously faulty control arms on both sides of the truck. This could have been a catrastophe had I been on traveling at higher rates of speed. This is an expensive repair and is quite ridiculous seeing as the truck is not that old. I am hoping that Chevy will make this right before others with the same issue are injured. I can also provide pictures of both incidents

Suspension makes noises when turning or going over bump. Driver seat feels like it moves/shifts slightly when making a turn. No brake pedal or 'rock' hard brake pedal at low speeds, in traffic, or when in reverse.
