TAKATA RECALL: THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2014-15 SILVERADO (RECAL # 14V301000). I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK ABOUT A YEAR, 2ND OWNER, BOUGHT IT AT 30K MILES.ON NOV. 25 I CAME OUT TO START MY START MY TRUCK AND I IMMEDIATELY COULDN'T POWER UP STEREO AND THEN I NOTICED I HAVE NO DOOR CHIME FOR OPEN DOOR, NO CHIME FOR KEY IN IGNITION AND NO CHIME FOR MY SEATBELT. MY TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR NO LONGER LETS ME KNOW WHEN IT IS ON. MY KEY FOB WILL NOT OPERATE KEYLESS START. I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE COULD EASILY BE INCLUDED IN RECALL. I'M SURE THERE WERENT MANY BECAUSE MOST DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT GIVING ANY SIGNS THAT THEY HAVE DEALT WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE ALL GOOD FUSES IN BOTH BOXES TOO. THE 1 DEALERSHIP JUMPED RIGHT TO REPLACING STEREO FOR A $1000. NOW I JUST DONT HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY NOR CAN I AFFORD TO BE COMING IN AND OUT OF DEALERSHIP TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT. SOMEBODY KNOWS WHAT IT IS AND THEIR NOT SHARING THAT INFO. CAN YOU HELP MEFIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO NEXT.I HAVE NO AUDIBLE INDICATOR LETTING ME KNOW DOOR IS OPEN WHILE KEY IS IN IGNITION AND AUDIBLE INDICATOR LETTING ME KNOW IF SEATBELT IS BUCKLED AND I AM A OVER THE ROAD CARRIER AND SPEND ALOT OF TIME IN MY TRUCK. THANK YOU

Incident Jun 27, 2016

RECEIVED LETTER FROM GM JULY 2016 ABOUT RECALL. CALLED DEALERSHIP THAT SOLD ME THE VEHICLE. THEY SAID, GM HAS NOT COME UP WITH A REPAIR YET. THE DEALERSHIP WOULD CALL TO SET UP REPAIR APPOINTMENT ONCE THEY KNOW OF REPAIR AND PARTS ON HAND. CALLED DEALERSHIP 10/26/2017 STILL NO CLUE ABOUT REPAIR PROCEDURE OR PARTS. THEY WILL CALL ONCE REPAIR IS KNOWN. WHY ISN'T THIS SAFETY ISSUE FIXED YET?

Incident Jul 1, 2016

DIESEL EXHAUST FILTER (DEF) AND FLOW REDUCTION TUBE ON DURAMAX LML ENGINE. FAUTLY DEF REQUIRES EXTREMELY HIGH TEMPERATURES TO CLEAN - OR REGENERATE - CAUSING THE DEF AND REDUCTION TUBE TO FAIL. HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE A FIRE HAZARD TO VEHICLE AND GRASS OR OTHER TERRAIN OVER WHICH THE TRUCK IS PARKED. GM NO LONGER MANUFACTURES THE REDUCTION TUBE, GM PART NUMBER 25960609 FORCING THE CONSUMER TO WAIT FOR GM TO MAKE PART ON SPECIAL ORDER BASIS - OVER 30 DAYS - OR FORCE CONSUMER TO REMOVE DEF OR MAKE OTHER FABRICATION, ORDER TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE. GM IS AWARE VIA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND DEALER COMPLAINTS THAT THE LACK OF PART 25960609 AVAILABILITY IS A NATION-WIDE PROBLEM AND HAS A HIGH FAILURE RATE. GM STOPPED PRODUCTION AS A COST SAVING MEASURE. THE DURAMAX LML ENGINE IS IN SERVICE MOSTLY AS COMMERCIAL VEHICLE FLEET. THUS, THERE IS A HIGH PROBABILITY OF UNSAFE FABRICATION IN ORDER TO RESTORE VEHICLE OPERATION.

I.E. COULD PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG. ALSO SHARDS OF THE DASHBOARD COULD CAUSE HARM IF AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY

Incident Feb 15, 2016

IBC ( INTEGRATED BRAKE CONTROLLER ) FACTORY INSTALLED IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH TRAILER BRAKING SYSTEMS USING A EOH ( ELECTRIC OVER HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS) HOWEVER ACCORDING TO REPORTS ON VARIOUS WEB SITES AND GOING TO A GM DEALER THEIR RECOMMENDATION IS FOR OWNERS TO HAVE INSTALLED AT OUR ( OWNERS ) AFTERMARKET BRAKE CONTROLLERS WITH NO COMPENSATION , PEOPLE THAT HAVE BOUGHT THESE TRUCKS WERE NOT TOLD BY THE DEALERS WHO WERE/ ARE AWARE OF THE INCOMPATIBILITY ISSUE AND HAS CAUSED FINANCIAL BURDEN TO THE OWNERS , HOWEVER THE NEW 2016 HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM CORRECTED AND HAVE OFFERED NO SOLUTIONS TO PREVIOUS YEAR OWNERS OTHER THAN THE AFTERMARKET CONTROLLER EXPENSE . THIS ISSUE ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE A CATASTROPHIC COLLISION IF I HAD NOT HAD THE THOUGHT AND AWARENESS TO DRIVE OFF THE ROAD INTO A DITCH WHICH INCURRED UPON ME A $850 TOWING BILL TO GET BACK ONTO THE HIGHWAY. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK IN JULY OF 2015 USED FROM A DEALER IN TALLAHASSEE ,FLORIDA AND HAD NOT USED THE TRUCK FOR TOWING A TRAILED UNTIL THE DATE OF THE INCIDENT!

I HAVE TO TURN THE TRUCK OFF AND START IT AGAIN TO GET IT TO STOP. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO DO ABOUT THE STABILITRAK ISSUE.
