THE TRUCK WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN I GOT IN AND STARTED THE IGNITION. AS SOON AS I DID, THE PLASTIC DASHBOARD CRACKED AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. ONE WEEK LATER, SAME SITUATION, AS I STARTED THE IGNITION, THE DASH CRACKED ABOVE THE DRIVER'S SIDE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CRACKS HAVE CONTINUED TO GROW SINCE INITIALLY APPEARING. I HAVE A SAFETY CONCERN THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY AS INTENDED SINCE THE INTEGRITY OF THE DASHBOARD HAS FAILED, AND FURTHER CONCERN THAT IF THE AIR BAGS DO DEPLOY, THAT THE DASH HAS BECOME SO BRITTLE THAT THERE WILL BE SHARP CHARDS OF PLASTIC IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AS THE DASH IS SHATTERED INTO PIECES FROM THE IMPACT OF A CRASH.

A CRACK HAS FORMED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE DASH BOARD NEAR THE AIR BAG. THIS SHOULD NOT OCCUR IN A VEHICLE OF THIS AGE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WITHOUT ANY MENTION OR ACTION TO REPAIR. I WILL BE CONTACTING THEM ON MONDAY ABOUT COVERING THE REPAIR. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DESIGN ISSUE AND THE DASH SHOULD BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. IN THE MONTH OF JUNE 2015, I HAD TO HAVE MY MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS IN JANUARY 2015 OF THIS YEAR AND I FILLED THE MASTER CYLINDER WITH FLUID BECAUSE OF THE BRAKE WARNING SYSTEM CAME ON AND THE BRAKE FLUID IN THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS AT THE MINIMUM LEVEL. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED TAT IT COULD BE THE RESULT OF LOW BRAKES AND TO KEEP AN EYE ON IT AND IF IT LOOSE BRAKE FLUID TO BRING IT IN.WHEN IT OCCUR AGAIN IN JUNE 2015, I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER.

ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING, DASH GAUGES BLANK. I MANAGED TO PULL OVER WITHOUT POWER BRAKES OR STEERING! AFTER A FEW MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO RESTART WITH "REDUCED ENGINE POWER, TRACTION CONTROL OFF, AND STABILITRAC" PROBLEMS DISPLAYED ON DASH. I WAS A MILE FROM HOME IN -10F TEMPS! I PULLED IT INTO MY SHOP. DTC CODE P2135 WHICH HAS TO DO WITH THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. THE DEALER HAS A 2 WEEK DELAY IN GETTING INTO THEIR GARAGE! I FOUND OUT THAT THE THROTTLE BODY/SENSOR IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. SO WITH THE COST OF A TOW (CAN'T TRUST THE TRUCK TO MAKE TO DEALER) PLUS THE PART COST, I WILL REPAIR IT MYSELF. THE REASON FOR THIS LETTER, I DISCOVERED THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER GMC TRUCK OWNERS. THEIR VEHICLE QUIT IN THE SAME MANNER. I THINK THAT "REDUCED POWER" IS NOT THE SAME AS NO POWER!!! I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO ME IF I WAS ON THE FREEWAY DURING RUSH HOURS??? BE PREPARED FOR SOME CREATIVE DRIVING! *TR

I WAS TRAVELING HOME FROM VACATION AND ABOUT 70 MILES AN HOUR IN MY 2010 GMC SIERRA AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY TRUCK REVVED UP AND MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. I ABOUT GOT HIT FROM BEHIND. I PULLED OVER AND THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD. I OPEN THE HOOD AND THERE'S TRANSMISSION FLUID FROM THE FRONT TO THE BACK UNDER THE TRUCK. ONE OF THE COOLING LINES RUBBED THE OTHER AND CHAFFED A HOLE. COST ME 150 DOLLARS IN TOWING FEES. GM DOESN'T WANT TO HONOR THEIR WARRANTY BECAUSE THEY REMOVED THIS PART OFF THEIR WARRANTY IN 2009. TRYING TO COVER UP THEIR MISTAKE .I CALLED GM PRIORITY CARE AND THEY HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO BECK AND MASTEN GM. THEY ARE TRYING TO CHARGE ME FOR THE REPAIRS WHEN ITS A DEFECT ON GM'S PART. MY QUESTION IS HOW MANY INNOCENT DRIVERS ARE GOING TO GO BANKRUPT PAYING FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION WHEN IT WAS GM'S MISTAKE IN DESIGN. OR EVEN WORSE HOW MANY WILL GET KILLED ON THE HIGHWAY. I THINK I'VE MADE MY POINT! *JS
