“The shark fin antenna leaks driver side. Which then caused water to drip down behind my dashboard /steering wheel area and electrical system. Water then dripped out where my emergency brake is located. Dripping on my foot and floor boards”
NHTSA complaint #11154689, filed 2018-11, 25,000 miles“At first the steering was heavy at times when I would make a 3 point turn or if I was backing out of a parking space and then moving forward. Then one time it completely locked up as I merged into city traffic coming out of a parking lot.”
NHTSA complaint #10873296, filed 2016-06, 28,000 miles“I have had the vehicle into the selling dealer several times for a bad vibration issue. The dealer finds a bad tire and replaces it and the problem goes away for a few thousand miles and then is repeated again and again. The last time I took it in for an oil change and tire rotation and when I got it back it had a very bad vibration at highway speeds. The dealer has put identical tires and rims from a new truck on the lot but didn't fix the vibration.the dealer replaced the gears in the rear axle that didn't fix the vibration. …”
NHTSA complaint #11042704, filed 2017-11, 48,000 miles“Paint is extremely fragile, it's ridiculous actually. It scratches and chips by just by touching it. I've never seen a factory paint job look so horrible in such a short period of time. It literally looks horrible after a 18 months and is extremly difficult to get a deep shine even with polish, wax, etc. Chips are starting to show up all over the vehicle and slight pits are now showing up. The clear coat extremely thin to non-existent. I was extremely surprised to not find a recall at this point based on all the web chatter and what I'm seeing on my truck.”
NHTSA complaint #10980398, filed 2017-04, 32,000 miles“The chevy AC compressor bolt broke before 48k miles while driving on a paved city street in san diego. This failure caused the condenser to also fail and both parts have to be replaced. The total bill for repairs is $2,150.31 and the copy of the invoices is submitted (exclude the fuel filter replacement costs as that was regular maintenance work). The AC compressor failure is caused by cheap parts and is a common problem for all GM products before 100k miles. …”
