Sierra 1500

  • 125,000 miles
The contact owns a 2007 GMC Sierra 1500. While driving 60 mph, a loud banging noise was heard coming from the rear of the vehicle. The contact was able to pull the vehicle over to the side of the road. Upon inspection, the rear of the vehicle discovered that the rear passenger side leaf spring fractured and was hanging on top of the axle. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was slowly driven to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the rear passenger and driver side leaf springs were fractured. The leaf springs and brackets were replaced on the vehicle. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing or repairs. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to NHTSA. The failure mileage was 125,000.

Sierra 1500

  • 50,000 miles
This is a constant and ongoing issue with the vehicle. When driving the vehicle on the highway or road at speeds above 15 or 20 mph the front suspension will shake violently when hitting bridge expansions, any sort of road bump, man hole covers with minimal edges, etc. The violent shaking in the suspension will then stop and not be felt during normal smooth highway or road travel but recurs each and every time road bumps are encountered. The shaking is violent and feels as though the whole front end of the vehicle is about to fall off. This has been happening for more than a year now. I have had the vehicle examined by the dealer and independent shops and they all say the suspension components all look intact and in good service condition.
