“I bought my 2014 chevy k2500 durmax diesel 4x4 I bought it under the impression I was told it would get really good gas mileage and its horrible the salesman said the new requirements that GM done to the exhaust and fuel the gov. Required was to help on pollution and fuel mileage. This should be looked into the fuel economy is horrible.”
NHTSA complaint #11174540, filed 2019-02, 34 miles“Shifted truck into reverse while plowing my driveway, truck made a large snap sound in front end and wouldn't move - oil was dispersed all over the ground. In the end - front yoke broke, causing drive shaft to hit oil filter and busting it off. Truck was under warranty so no cost but this is dangerous. Had I been moving this could have caused a truck to flip end for end.”
NHTSA complaint #10714382, filed 2015-05, 12,500 miles“I have several DTC codes u029d u029e p0420 p220b on three occasions. These code are triggering a limited speed and possible power reduction. The dealer ship states that gmc protocol is to replace one sensor at a time and let the customer go so they can breakdown again. The part that is failing I am told is the diesel particulate filter, but gmc can not supply the dealerships with the high demand. This seems like a faulty design that may work during the warranty period, but shorty fails after. I did report exhaust smell in the truck while driving . …”
NHTSA complaint #11282684, filed 2019-11, 99,985 miles“While driving the vehicle the check engine light comes on, the stabilitrak light comes on and the vehicle shuts off. Within seconds the engine restarts. The most common occurrence is when traveling on bumpy roads. When this happens at freeway speeds, the same will happen, and the cruise control will disconnect, and cannot be reset until around 30 minutes. Again, the engine will die and immediately restart. This is happening much more frequently lately. The vehicle has approximately 95,000 miles on the odometer.”
NHTSA complaint #10983923, filed 2017-05, 95,000 miles“While I was pulling my trailer up a grade on my 2014 Chevy Silverado 2500HD diesel truck, the fuel pump had catastrophic failure resulting in total loss of power. I had to unsafely maneuver to the shoulder of the 10 freeway west near Cabazon, CA and exit the truck near high speed traffic. I was lucky to make it to the shoulder without getting run over by the trucks in the slow lane. Had to wait hours for a tow and now have a roughly $10k repair bill. This is a known issue with the Bosch CP4 fuel pumps that Ford and GM refuse to address. …”
