Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The vehicle was stationary in a parking lot. I got back into the truck to leave and I went to put on my driver's side seatbelt and it broke off the cable sheared. There was no force or warning, it just came off. This was a seatbelt that was previously repaired in a recall by GM for the same thing.”
NHTSA complaint #11309884, filed 2020-02, 174,000 miles“Was in a accident and only the curtain air bags deployed. Was only and right front low speed bump and the truck barely hit and did night tilt. I paid out of pocket for repairs but the curtain air bags. Now trouble codes show everything as a open circuit. I feel the wrong airbags deployed. This truck only has 23000 miles on it too.”
NHTSA complaint #10930201, filed 2016-12, 23,000 miles“We have a crew cab and the back seat passenger and driver side seat belts became nonfunctional after we had had the vehicle for only one year. We used the seat belts in a normal fashion. It does not seem reasonable that the belts and retractors would break after normal use for one year. The front seat belts were recalled and worked on, so we are wondering if the back seat belts should be recalled also.”
NHTSA complaint #11019346, filed 2017-08, 36,500 miles“The seat belt does not tighten up to your lap or shoulder after being snapped to the stationary piece. The belt continues to do this even after reporting to dealership cook Chevrolet in craig colorado and taking there for them to repair.they gave me a 400 estimate and did not repair I assume this would be found on most of these vehicles from poor materials, I will repair this issue myself since I cannot trust chevrolets workmanship.”
NHTSA complaint #10969865, filed 2017-04, 49,000 miles“I've had to get a new paint job because clear coat was coming off. Egnition switch locked up. Check engine light has come on multiple times I take it to the dealership and they say nothing is wrong with it. But tell me I can't let it get below a half tank of gas. Back axles lock up. And seat belts lock when going about 50 miles per hour. And the air condenser cought on fire. Now when I take it to the dealership they say they can not diagnose the problem. I have spent around $6000 in repairs”
