NHTSA complaint #10744090, filed 2015-07, 39,000 miles“No accident; however, I am 6'4 and when I am in the drivers seat I have to drive with seat all the way back. With the mirror fully out to view cars on the left I have to move my head over to the right to get a safe view of the lane and passing cars. Also I have the same problem viewing behind me because the mirror will not go high enough to see over a hundred feet or so. I have to bend my head down to see in the distant. Chevrolet was notified 2 times and I talked to them but they are unwilling to do anything about it. Only to say that is the way the vehicle is designed. …”
NHTSA complaint #10649028, filed 2014-10, 14 miles“Would get intermittent air bag warning light. Took it to one dealership and found no codes. Later I figured out it would only be on with a passenger in the seat and took it to another dealership where it was found to be the passenger presence module. With the light on the airbag will not deploy. Filed the complaint with GM warranty department as the truck is a 2014 model and only 54,000 miles, GM will not warranty or pay for the fix. Had to pay out of pocket to correct this safety feature”
