Takata inflators.in june of 2016, the warning light for an airbag system function came on.i had to replace one of the sensors that had malfuntioned near the front bumper that activates the deployment of the airbags - at my own expense.upon researching this issue, i found a lot of owners of similar silverados experienced this same part problem.then, i received gm recall 49152 in july, 2016 stating that "the propellant in some types of takata airbag inflators can degrade over time, especially after long-term exposure in hot and humid regions.if the propellant degrades to a certain level, the inflators may rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries".since i live in north carolina and the truck stays parked outside 24/7, i'm concerned about my safety and anyone riding with me.while what has been warned has not occurred yet, i'm concerned that it could at any time - especially considering how the many of the airbag deployment sensors like mine that went bad seem to be faulty.

Takata recallbeen waiting year &haft for repair dealer said theyarewaitingforparts to come infor year &haft.taking to long
"takata recall"i have been trying to get the airbag in my vehicle replaced since the recall notice.however, gm is unable or unwilling to replace the airbags.i have read docket #nhtsa-2016-0124.i have also received notification that takata is filing for bankruptcy.as the consumer, i am caught between these legal battles.meanwhile, we are unable to use the front passenger seat of our vehicle for fear the airbag, which the government requires us to have, will explode and injure/kill the passenger. I demand someone replace or remove the takata airbag from my vehicle immediately, so i can regain the full use of my vehicle.i will be writing my representative, senator and president regarding this issue also.this has gone on too long.the citizens of the united states deserve resolution to faulty, unsafe equipment without delay.

Passing a vehicle on county black top road,accelerated to initiate passing gear. Accelerator stuck eng rpm at full speed. Attempted to alleviate to no avail. Attempted to shift to neutral but went into reverse also applied brakes. As a result there were 420 ft. Of skid marks then right front wheel hit shoulder of road and vehicle went end over end landing in ditch on its top. The air bags did not deploy and there i was no recorded incidence on the data recorder. The vehicle was totaled by the insurance co. My concern is that this vehicle could be rebuilt and put back on the road as drivable vehicle since it had only 13,000 miles on it. If no cause for the malfunction can be determined there is a distinct possibility this couldhappen again with possible loss of life.updated 06/08/11updated 10/21/11updated 1/18/2012 *lnupdated 2/8/12updated 2/29/12

Dashboard has developed cracks in multiple locations.one is located by the passenger air bag.another is located near the driver side instrument cluster.the one near the airbag is particularly worrisome.in the event that the airbag was to deploy, jagged pieces of plastic could puncture the airbag or be propelled at the vehicle occupants.the vehicle was not involved in any type of accident or crash.these cracks in the dashboard simply appeared over time and appear to be very common among chevy trucks in the model years of 2007-2013.i checked online and there are thousands of internet posts/forums discussing this problem.gm should be held accountable for fixing this defect.
Service air bag light came on and truck was parked almost immediately. Approx 2 hrs later driver air bag deployed while vehicle off, sitting in driveway.

About 2 years ago or so i believe, the passenger air back light came on and has been on ever since. I'm aware it will not deploy under this circumstance if i were to be involved in an accident i had received a recall over a year and was informed they didn't have a solution to the problem yet contacted dealership and they said they would notify me. It's been like this for a long time because i've been waiting to be contacted for the recall.

A battery icon comes on my dash with a message about the battery charging system needs to be serviced. It does not matter if the vehicle is stationary or driving this comes on for long enough to read then goes off. The tires pressure sensor is giving a messages as well about needing servicing.

I have since then tried to spray white lithium to get it moving since i did not have wd40.there was no success. I still have not been able to get the airbag recall fixed.

I have a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500 and the dashboard is cracked in two different places. One crack is on the passenger side, directly over the air bag. The other crack is above the left side of the instrument cluster. Every 2008-2013 chevrolet pickup or suv that i have seen has one, if not both, of these cracks. I feel that it is very unsafe to have any damage in or around the airbag system, and i do not understand why gm will not fix an issue that is their fault.

"takata recall".i spoke to a chevrolet dealership person (all star chevrolet north, 9352 plank road, baton rouge, la) about replacing my truck passenger side airbag.i first contacted them on november 7, 2017 and was told the device was not available.i contacted them again on may 10, 2018 and spoke with amanda.amanda said she would check with her manager to determine if the part was available to schedule the fix but i have not been contacted. I decided to call chevrolet customer assistance center (1-800-222-1020) and i spoke with jane.jane explained that my vehicle is not part of the recall but your web site and chevrolet web site (http://my.gm.com/recalls) state that my vehicle is part of the 'takata recall'.jane mentioned something about chevrolet hiring a third party engineering firm that determined that vehicles like mine was not affected.i asked for this in an email or letter but she said she was not authorized to release this information in written form. 'electrical issue'.vehicle instrumentation panel completely shuts down while driving.this appears to be a common problem when i search the internet.also vehicle shows the 'airbag' needs serving then right after this the 'check engine' symbol appeared.it is hard to believe that these issues are not related. Thanks.

Not a lot of people have died compared to all the airbags out there, but that does not make me feel confident about driving my grandsons after school or on summer break. Is there any help for me?
We received notice in july of 2016 of the airbags being defective, and that we would be notified when parts are available to remedy my vehicle. However, we never received that notice. It offered me to check with my local dealer for updates, and to check their website. Every time i checked the website, it read it still read remedy not available. It still says that today. I also tried calling my local dealer, lou bachrodt chevrolet buick months ago. They told me it was still under investigation and they (takata) have until august or september of 2017 to come up with an action plan or a result. Today i received a notice in the mail from tk holdings, that takata has filed chapter 11. The resale value of my truck is highly deteriorated. How can i sell it to someone knowing the airbags are defective? this is terrible and i need this resolved, and want to be compensated for the risk i've continued to put myself and my family at.

There is a large crack on the front left side of my passenger side airbag. I am afraid that if the airbag has to deploy that it will send plastic shards in the air at a high velocity. I don't want additional injury to occur from broken plastic. Gm has refused to repair this as a defect in their truck line.

Takata recall. Why is general motors not fixing this problem. For the last two years they have told me they are awaiting parts. Now, they are saying it's not a problem. Have the attorneys decided it's cheaper to pay what may be just a few claims rather than fix the problem on all vehicles involved. Now that takata is in chapter 11 is gm washing there hands of this and choosing not to stand behind their product?i have to date not had a problem with the air bag. Please advise me as what action i can take to file a formal complaint short of having to hire an attorney.
Dash board cracks everywhere! i been using sun reflector sinc a bought the truck but cracks still coming out cheap material!!!

Takata recallreceived letter stating my truck is affected by the takata airbag recall. The letter says my truck is "considered safe to drive" followed by a paragraph that says "the inflator may rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries". I got a similar notice from lexus a few days earlier, and lexus offered a rental no questions asked until the issue is resolved. The chevy dealer said they are not offering rentals at this time. Gm customer service said my truck is safe to drive so no rental warranted. I asked the rep why did i get a letter then saying that my airbag may kill me and was told she can't answer that.i want a rental of a similar truck until this is fixed. I live in zone 1/a of the recall as well, so if anyone is likely to have a problem, we are in this area.

Takata arecalla few years ago after hearing about a major air bag defect involving several thousand vehicles & then sometime later we were informed thatour 2008 chevrolet was one of the units covered by the defective & dangerous air bag.about a year ago we went to our local dealer here" bill buck chevrolet" in venice floridawhere we were told they didnt have the slightest idea when we could expect to get it repaired.now the latest i have read is the older units that are in hot, humid, states like florida are the ones most apt to explode if i can getany information or should i start researching other vehicles.
My dash is cracked on the left side of airbag. This happened a little over a year ago. The dash now is cracked in two places on the left side of airbag and also on driverside of dash. I have contacted dealer and also general motors when i first noticed this in 2014. I also contacted them again in 2015, i was told this is not a safety issue. My concern is they told me that i know this is a problem and i need to fix this or i am responsible if there is a problem with airbag deploying or a piece of the dash injuring someone in the event that the airbag does deploy. I feel this a safety issue that needs to be recalled.

The problem was not with the air bag, but the front switch that activates the air bags upon impact. When one or both fail the test when you turn the ignition on, it posts a message saying service the air bag system. There is lots of information regarding this on utube. Apparently this is a common problem. I am an electrician and an electronics tech, i know that the air bags will not activate if the crash is on the side with a bad air bag. I had 2 brake light switches go out, at which time the person behind me,would have no idea, i was braking. The switch is a 2 part switch, one part controls the brake light, the other enables or disengages the cruise control system.
The manufacturer has failed or is unable to remedy this safety recall for my vehicle in a timely manner.
Railroad hyrail vehicle equipped, after market, with hyrail wheel assemblies which allow the vehicle to operate on railroad tracks. Once hyrail (flanged) wheels are retracted, the vehicle is operated over the highways and public roads like any other vehicle. On 10/5/12 near newcastle, wy a railroad employee was operating vehicle on the railroad tracks when it struck standing equipment at approx 15 mph. Airbags did not deploy and rail employee was injured. Concern is that the installation of hyrail wheel assemblies might be impacting the airbag sensor. The hyrail wheel assemblies extend approx. One foot of steel framework ahead of the front and rear bumpers. The placement of these assemblies might inadvertently be affecting airbag deployment in crashes on the railroad track and on public roads.

Fell asleep hit telephone pole totaled out truck from the front no air bag ...no on star. Some safety features,and you pay for this, and get lower insurance rates for something that did not work. Was told to contact gm and an agent would come out and check bags for deployment. If they did not deploy due to a wreck, as far as i'm concerned they are worthless!

Have a gm recall from july 2016 on replacing front passenger airbag.contacted gm recently and was told that recall incomplete because gm has not heard from information from nhtsa regarding petition for inconsequentially.so how are we to fix this issue and insure that the airbags are safe if deployed?consumer is being left behind on this issue of safety and gm and federal government are doing nothing for over 4 years now.this issue with gm needs to be fixed and consumers safety taken seriously.no more gm products for this household, as they are passing the buck and not looking out for their consumers.and gov't (nhtsa) isn't moving quickly on this issue either.

I get the "service air bag" warning light. The air bags have already gone out and will not deploy as long as the light is on. This truck has been taken very good care of and driven very few miles, but yet the warning light is on after the deal had already made a service bulletin repair to the system. The dealer (gastorf in warrenton, mo) will not repair it without paying up to about $500 (approx. Maximum cost), which i can not afford and should not have to consider repairing. I believe air bag items should be something that does not "just break" for no reason.

Service air brake light came on when i started the vehicle.after doing some research i have learned that the air bag sensors in the front of the vehicle are known for going bad.the oem part cracks and causes failure and loss of the air bag function.also with research i learned that gm has done nothing to improve or fix this problem.i feel that gm should conduct a safety recall on these sensors so their product does not fail andthe passengers inside the vehicle stay protected.

Takata recallwe received a notice about a bad takata-manufactured airbag inflator recall but we have not received a repair notice to fix our airbag problem.
Started my vehicle to move it in the driveway this past saturday and before i was able to shift into gear the driver and passenger airbags deployed without warning. No collision, etc.the vehicle wasn't even out of park yet.sounded like a shotgun went off in the cab of the truck.luckily i was not leaned forward attempting to shift gears or i would have caught the full force of the deployment to my face.took quite a hit to the chest and stomach area.extremely fortunate this happened in the driveway and not while driving at highway speeds in traffic.upon research found a pending recall which hasn't been resolved yet by nhtsa.this issue is real and extremely dangerous.i could have been seriously injured or injured others if this happened while driving.i am now stuck with 2 deployed airbags and if i wish to repair several thousands of dollars to fix problem.gm needs to make this right and repair.if the manufacturer takata has identified a problem with the air bag deployment system provided and utilized by gm this should be repaired by gm.

There was an explosion and seat belts tightened up,the deployer for air bags went off, luckily the air bags didn't go off or i would have been in an accident. I complained to gm because there was a call back in 2010 of faulty sensors getting corroded because they are located in a damp area. Gm stated that they were no longer responsible because it was over five years old and over 100,000 miles. But my concern is how dangerous this is when you are just driving down the street and they go off causing a accident. I want gm to pay for repairs so that i can have seat belts again but they claim no responsibility and want me to pay $1200.00 to $1500.00 to have seat belts and air bags again.

Takata recall: received "important safety recall" from gm in july 2016. Recall says vehicle is safe to drive, and that i'll be notified when parts are available. In fall of 2016 i checked again. Parts still not available. Gm website says feb. 2017. Checked march 9th, 2017, web site says check back after august 2017. Checked in september 2017. Web site says "incomplete. Remedy not yet available. Recently received notice from tk holding inc. Announcing bankruptcy filing of takata. Called their number and they said repairs should have been made. Called local dealer: their service department says parts are still not available. My questions: is this vehicle safe to drive? if i'm injured by a defective air bag, and takata has filed bankruptcy, is gm going to repair my truck, and/or (god forbid) i'm injured by a defective air bag, who will take care of my medical? lastly, if these air bags were defective enough to issue a safety recall, does it really take 15+ months to get parts and effect repairs? or is this just some ploy to keep putting it off in the hopes the owner sells the truck or it goes to the 'bone yard' because it's worn out? thank you.
In my garage, i randomly started vehicle and the dash indicator light indicates a problem with the airbag system and stays on. This happened a few months ago and still indicates a problem every time the vehicle is started and used.

Takata recall # 16v381. I bought this chevy new and was driving to louisiana. My mileage at the time was 35,955 miles. The red colored seat belt light came on. I was to close to the 36,000 mile mark for warranty coverage to make it to shreveport, la. So i have been driving this truck with the light on. I have asked dealerships if they see the problem, but was asked for a commitment for unknown amounts of money to check and repair this problem. Thank the lord i have not been in an accident with this condition. I want to know if this has been the case with other models as mine. I have a second problem with the engine an transmission. The transmission went out at about 92,000 miles and had to be replaced. Lastly the yellow check engine light has been on. I have spent several thousand to fix this. Even at dealership. I would leave and the light would return. Sometimes i had only driven a mile. I have had other mechanics check it out and it appears i have a lifter problem on my number two cylinder causing intermittent misfires to occur. Is this also a problem with my model?

Both air bag sensors underneath the radiator have deteriorated and cracked in half.
Having vehicle washed a "service air bag warning" lluminated. Scheduled service and dealer diagnosed front impact sensor defective. Part is visably defective with cracks and deformation present. Looks to have been defective for quite some time as a lot of corrosion is present. Called gm customer care to inform them part could have been defective from manufacturer. They claimed part was replaced due to wear. I stated this was unacceptable for a saftey related part to wear at this vehicle age. Part # 15297468

Takata recall.....received air bag notice last year, and told me i would receive notice when to contact dealership. Current card from tk holdings suggested i contace dealership.i contacted dealership (11/30/2017) where i purchased the vehicle and they said there is no remedy available. When one is available, takata will send me a notice.....lol....now what???
I am very concerned because this issue has been taken care. I get anxiety every time i get in my truck knowing the air bags issue has been taken care of.
Recall 09184recently my service air bag indicator illuminated and took vehicle to gm service sunset chevrolet sumner washington. They informed me that the sdm needs to be replaced because of excessive corrosion and component failure. Waiting to conduct repairs, i discovered a recall that pertained to the sensor retaining moisure due to acoustic padding covering the component, but only covers vehicles registered in specific states, wa not being one of them. Will this recall be extended to my vehicle? this is a very costly repair that could have been prevented if i the owner new i could have prevented it by following the provided instructions in the recall. If it will not be extended to my vehicle is there a process or action i can take to help off set the repair cost?
Takata recall, received recall notice many months ago not remedy
"takata recall"-in july of 2016, i received a letter from gm stating that there was a recall on my vehicle. I am still waiting for them to get the parts needed to repair the recall. I checked with the local chevy dealer and the local gm dealer, both stated that the parts are not in yet. It's been a year now, what gives ? if it was a safety recall then the vehicle must be unsafe.

Recall takata air bags
When i tried to get the emissions down on my vehicle. I was notified of the recall. The airbag light is on and has been on for about 5 years.no other issues with vehicle.
My vehicle was in motion one day and i was driving on the interstate and all power in the truck was gone the radio reset the gauges started to go up and down and the airbag light was flashing and saying service airbag. I figured it was a electrical problem so i got a new battery and it still did it so i i put a new ground wire and it still continued to do it and got all new battery cables and still nothing and when it all resets and i turn it off i have to jiggle the positive wire for it to start

The dash board on my 2008 silverado ltz is cracking in several places, my safety concern is, that if the passenger side air bag were to deploy, there is a great possibility that sharp pieces (shards) of the cracking, defective dash, would be sent flying through the cab. This could possibly cause lacerations and blindness. This dash cracking on 2007-2014 gm products is well known and very common. Replacing the factory dash is very costly. I am concerned that aftermarket "covers"or "caps" might interfere with the air bag deployment. Also there is a recall 49151 on the air bags. I am also concerned that an after market "cap" or "cover" might interfere with the replacement or service of the recalled air bag, as most of these aftermarket caps are difficult to "uninstall",ifaccess is needed to repair or replace components below the dash.
Takata inflators recall # 16v381 i have contacted the local chevrolet dealer in santa rosa ca on numerous ocassions during the past 2 years in an attempt to get the air bag replaced. Each time i have been told that the parts are not available. I am concerned for my safety while driving my vehicle and request your assistance.
Large visible cracks in dash above passenger side airbag cover.
On our 2008 chevy silverado 1500 lt 4x4 z71, the dashboard has cracked so badly where the passenger airbag is, that if the airbag were to deploy, plastic shrapnel is going to go flying, which could injure or possibly kill someone. On the flipside; the airbag may not even deploy due to the damaged dashboard. In either case, this is a major safety issue that gm refuses to acknowledge, despite now thousands of customers tahoes, suburbans, and (all chevy & gmc trucks & suv's 2007 and newer) having the exact same issue. After multiple calls to chevy and gm, and them being extremely rude and in denial; the best they can do is to replace the dash for a price of $200-500, which we currently don't have, and should not have to pay for, as gm should stand behind the safety of their vehicles after charging the prices they do. In the meantime, we don't feel safe even driving our truck down the street. This is a serious safety issue, and needs to be an urgent recall, before someone is killed! there are message boards, facebook pages, and twitter accounts all set up just for frustrated chevy & gmc customers having the cracked dashboard and airbag issue, so please investigate this problem, nhtsa. Since gm refuses to help it's thousands of scared customers, we pray you will help to stop this madness.

Takata airbag recall...no action or correspondence from manufacturer concerning replacement .i received original notification may 27, 2016.manufacturer recall number = 2049151.......nhtsa recall number =16v381. More than 24 months ago. What is happening??
Takata recall - my recall statement from gm / chevorlet says, and i paraphrase,"for the time being do not allow anyone to ride in the front passenger seat".this presents a problem in that i am experiencing loss of use.the vehicle was sold as being a 6 passenger vehicle and i am unable to safely use it as such. They have been unable to provide a solution and or correct the safety issue since the recall. I deserve to be compensated for the loss of use and to be provided a like kind vehicle to use until they are able to correct the safety issue.

"takata recall"i received the recall notice in july 2015. Still no remedy yet is unacceptable! what is gm waiting on? i suggest they be ordered to stop producing cars until they fix the ones that are on the road already. Perhaps that would get them to produce a remedy for this life threatening safety problem!
I have two vehicles that did the exact same thing in the exact location about 2 weeks apart. I have a 2009 gmc yukon and a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving, we heard a loud pop. After investigating what had happened we noticed the dash board was cracked over the passenger side dashboard airbag. This happened in the yukon 1st then 2 weeks later it happened in the truck. Same crack, same loud pop, samelocation on the dashboard. Fearing that the airbag will come out at any moment, i called premier chevrolet in bessemer alabama. They said this was not under any warranty nor any recall. The service manager stated, "that sucks for you". This is a major safety issue that i feel i should not have to pay for. How in the world can a airbag popping the dashboard in two of my vehicles be a customer problem? if this airbag fully deploys and injures or kills one of my kids then what? this has to be a gm recall. Please help me with this problem before someone gets hurt. Please call me anytime for further details.

Passenger airbag recall due to takata's supply to gm has been identified they are are defective and gm was given till august 2017 and nothing to date has been done to rectify this defective finding.docket no. Nhtsa-2016-0124.upon previous calls to gm they are dismissing this recall; however, the recall notice is on my license plate renewal form, searchable on the internet and the nhtsa website and yet no one is holding gm accountable for every 2007-2008 gm owner(certain 2007-2008 cadillac escalade, escalade esv, escalade ext, chevrolet avalanche, silverado 1500, suburban, tahoe, gmc sierra 1500, yukon, and yukon xl vehicles) whom are at risk.
Takata recall...i was notified in july 2016 of a recall on takata airbag inflators installed in my vehicle.this recall stated that the propellant in the inflator can degrade over time, especially after long term exposure in hot and humid regions.when this propellant degrades to a certain level, the inflator can rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries.as of november 2017, there is still no remedy available for this recall for a defective item that could result in death for me or my family.i have called about the availability of a remedy several times, with the most recent call taking place in august 2017, when i was assured that the solution would be available by the end of october.it is still not available.i live in alabama and have owned my truck for 7 years, so my airbag propellant has been exposed to the exact conditions and length of exposure that could result in death as stated in the recallfurthermore, it angers me that the recall states that this propellant, when exposed to hot and humid conditions for an extended period of time, could result in death but then goes on to state that "the vehicle is presently safe to drive".i think that gm and takata have had plenty of time to establish a remedy for the problem.it is obvious to me that neither company cares about the safety of their customers.some action needs to be taken against these companies to ensure that they take action to repair these potentially deadly problems.

Takata recall. Manufacturer recall #2049151. Nhtsa recall #16v381. I have tried my local chevrolet dealer but they say there are no airbag replacements available.the original airbag has not deployed, but i risk injury or death if it does. There is no excuse for chevrolet not to honor this recall as it directly affects my safety.
Dashboard is cracking and breaking apart surrounding airbag. Could cause plastic shrapnel being thrown if airbag is deployed.
Received a recall # 49151 letter in july 2016 stating that the passenger side airbag inflators are defective and that i would received a letter when parts were received. I never got a letter so i called chevrolet customer assistance # 1-800-222-1020 on 8-22-2016 spoke with lisa and was told they have no parts and vehicle was safe to drive. If the vehicle was safe why did i received the recall.

Takara recall. A couple months ago i had a service light on for the airbag. I took it to the gm certified dealer. They couldn't tell me what was wrong, but they figured it was the sdm.their best guess and to start with that. They told me not to worry, it's nothing serious as of yet.so throughout the course the light would come on and off intermittently. On september 20th after dropping off my child at day care, i went to work early for a meeting. I parked in my normal spot and went in. After my hour long meeting my manager had notified me, that my airbags had deployed. I couldn't believe it. It was off, parked, and airbags went off on their own. If i didn't have that meeting, they would have deployed while driving and would've killed me and my child.i do have video footage of them deploying from my works security cameras.

May 27, 2016 takata airbag issue was made known to us. I've contacted gm about the issue several times to no avail. They simply recommend no one should sit on the passenger side of the vehicle. Insane. We went through massive flooding in our areaaugust 29, 2017, hurricane harvey, in port arthur tx. Humidity is of grave concern in this area given the affect it has on airbags. We need a solution immediately! they need to make repairs to these vehicles at once, without delay. Otherwise, you are equally guilty of maiming people when these airbags go off, especially those affected by hurricane harvey with all the moisture vehicles encountered here months on end. Do something about this situation now! no problem of this magnitude should remain in limbo for this length of time. Do your job!!!! nothing has happened to us or our vehicle thus far, but it's like driving with a time bomb ready to go off any time now! demand a solution to the airbags on these vehicles especially those in port arthur, tx given the flooding we encountered!

Severe dash cracking, has about 5-6 major cracks, including around the airbag area.

Not to mention there still hasnt been a recall on the airbag situation. This is not good!
The dashboard is cracked around the front passenger side airbag. After searching the internet this is a widespread problem for gm vehicles year models 2007 -2013.i fear this is a safety issue.please help.
Two cracks in the dash have formed.one on the drivers side and one on the passengers side.the crack on the passengers side travels from the dash air bag to the top joint between the two dash pieces.the crack on the drivers side travels from the joint between the two dash pieces towards the driver along the left side of the instrument portion of the dash.notice the crack on the drivers side when sitting stationary in my driveway and then finding the crack on the passengers side.

2008 chevrolet silverado 1500, airbag sensor and check engine light came on with out accident or incident.we called gm and they told us to take it to a dealer.we took to the dealer we bought the truck from new.they ran diagnostic testing and it came back evaporative emission sensor and inflatable restraint front sensor were bad.as a safety/emissions problem it should have been covered under warranty. They gave us a $600 bill in which we made them call the gm representative. They then had us pay $250. 2 1/2 years later and airbag sensor light is back on without accident.

Takata recall.gm recall number 49151. I was notified (by mail)in july 2016 that "a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain gm 2008 model year chevrolet silerado ld vehicles."it was my understanding that gm had until august 2017 to determine if my vehicle would receive parts to remedy my vehicle.i have not been contacted again.i called the dealer once and they said my vehicle is safe to drive - as it is also stated in the july 2016 notice.i believe it is unreasonable to wait this long for resolution.i am scared to have passengers in my vehicle and i am not comfortable selling a potentially defective vehicle to another person.it reduces the value of my truck and possibly makes me liable for injuries if i sell it to someone else.i need my airbag replaced immediately.

Takata airbag defect... Defective ignition switch locks key in ignition
Service air bag light is on called dealer stated recall is in no decision has been made to correct the problem.
For the production years 2007 through 2012, general motors has had extensive issues with the dashboards cracking around the passenger airbag, as well as other areas of the dashboard.i have a 2008 silverado with only 53,000 miles on it.i recently noticed that the dashboard has cracked where the passenger airbag is located.i took my truck to the dealership today (huffines chevrolet in plano, tx) to have them inspect the dashboard.they were very kind (as usual) and offered to extend me a courtesy discount to replace the dashboard for $500.00 versus the full price of $1,168.00.while this is a step in the right direction, i don't think i should have to pay for a defective dashboard that has been installed in silverado's, sierra's, avalanches, and suburban's for 7 production years.besides the expense, these cracked dashboards represent major safety issues.if the airbag was ever deployed, both passengers and drivers will be subjected to injury by hard plastic shrapnel flying throughout the cabin.general motors should step up to the plate and offer its customers a free replacement of these dangerous broken dashboards.

"takata recall". Went to the website on the mailer and found that we are one of the vehichles that needs to have the recall done on, contacted the closest dealer they listed (happens to be the one we purchased from) and erica @ rossi advised that her computer says "no remedy avail" and suggested i call the 888 # for you guys.our airbag light has been lit on the dash for the last few months.not sure if it has to do with the recall or the sensor has gone bad in the front bumper.
I was entering i-75 interstate ramp and moving along with traffic and about 70 mph, the door locks started going up and down on there own, the instrument cluster needles started sporadically going up and down then they show no signs of anything, the airbag light came on along with the chime sound, the stability control light came on, the truck lost a little bit of power when trying to accelerate, i did smell a burnt wire odor. I have replaced the battery and alternator and still the problem exists. This has happen twice before this incident. The stability control light came on and the truck ran really rough. I took it to my local chevrolet dealership and they told me that the number 8 cylinder had oil leaking into it which i see no signs of blue smoke coming out of the tailpipe and have been driving it for 5 months now with no problems except what is going on now with the electrical system. I have been researching the electrical problems with this year truck and it seems to be a wide spread manufacture problem. I have also seen pictures of the same year truck with the same problems that are described above and this ladies truck burned from the dashboard all the way to the front seats. A total loss. General motors needs to address this problem immediately before someone dies. Recall recall recall!!!....updated 11/13/15 updated 1/4/2016

Chevrolet defective left front seat air bag position senor.dealer indicates a needed recall.air bags will not operate due to this defect.one of many he has replaced.
I was shutting the center console in my 2008 chevy silverado and the passenger air bag deployed and i turned the key on the truck to start it and the drivers air bag deplored i have not been in accident or hit anything.i want to make a full report of this.
I have a 2008 silverado extra cab 4 wheel drive and was ran off the road and hit a bump not even big enough to pop a tire no body damage and the side air bags deployed. Dealer says not a defect problem i think it is . Can we not drive a 4 wheel drive off road?
Fuel pump flow control module replacement 1500/2500, sierra 1500/2500) was never replaced by the dealer, vehicle stalled while driving, almost lost control while driving due to the engine stall. I took it to the dealership and they want to charge met to replace the fuel pump flow control module that was suppose the be fixed during the recall. I just bought this truck from the chevy dealer a month ago.
Tried to open passenger side front window from master module(switch) on driver side, notice a burnt odor.on farther inspection i found the passenger side window module had shorted out with burnt and/or melted wires at the connector. Possible fire hazard! i was parked at a post office
The problem was not with the air bag, but the front switch that activates the air bags upon impact. When one or both fail the test when you turn the ignition on, it posts a message saying service the air bag system. There is lots of information regarding this on utube. Apparently this is a common problem. I am an electrician and an electronics tech, i know that the air bags will not activate if the crash is on the side with a bad air bag. I had 2 brake light switches go out, at which time the person behind me,would have no idea, i was braking. The switch is a 2 part switch, one part controls the brake light, the other enables or disengages the cruise control system.

Forty-five days after purchasing a used 2008 chevy silverado 1500 4x4, the 'service abs and stabilitrak' warning lights appeared on the drivers informational screen.following the manufactures recommendation to re-set the components did not resolve the issues.warning lights appeared every time the vehicle was started.vehicle was returned to dealer where the right-rear wheel sensor was found to be wet, corroded and broken.dealer service advisor (and) technician stated they 'have seen this on many other [same make and model] trucks.'damaged sensor replaced at my expense and old sensor retained by dealer.
My vehicle was in motion one day and i was driving on the interstate and all power in the truck was gone the radio reset the gauges started to go up and down and the airbag light was flashing and saying service airbag. I figured it was a electrical problem so i got a new battery and it still did it so i i put a new ground wire and it still continued to do it and got all new battery cables and still nothing and when it all resets and i turn it off i have to jiggle the positive wire for it to start
With truck stationary, i have inspected and observed the following. Dash has cracked through multiple locations to include areas for stored airbags. Rattling sound is coming from insecure dash. Radio and speakers function intermittently and other times with static. Replaced speakers in doors and that did not resolve the problem. Drivers seat belt did not connect to receiver end. Replaced part ordered from gm parts website. A constant water leak comes from underneath dash along firewall into drivers side floorboards. Water soaked carpet and insulation has wicked to rear floor areas. No one has found the water source, but it has rusteddriver side door panel screws and ruined carpet. Water appears to be worse when using hvacc or defroster. Replaced fuel vent valve solenoid underneath truck, near refuel cap/door, three times due to check eng light.
Instrument panel randomly goes crazy as well as power locks and engine shuts off going down the road.sometimes will not crank up takes a few times turning the key
Driver side door locks will not work with keyfob or switch on the either door.
I have a 4 door 2008 chevy silverado 1500 and my third power door lock actuator has failed within 1 year. I have 24000 miles on vehicle. A google search indicates this is a problem with this vehicle. I consider this to be a safety issue since the door locks do not lock the doors when in drive. Passengers can open the door while vehicle is in motion. There is no doubt in my mind that this is a part defect and should be listed as a safety recall. I would appreciate it if you can look into this matter immediately. Thank you!
The engine died without warning while driving at about 30 mph.power steering and brakes were lost making the vehicle very difficult to control.i managed to stop the vehicle safely and had it towed to a chevrolet dealership.the cause of the engine die out was found to be an internal fault in the engine control module.
Chimes--any warning chimes-- can not be heard at all,speakers do not work,no warning chimes can be heard at all.keys left in the ignition,turn signals on ,lights left on,seat belt warning,door open,nothing--then,depending on the weather,hot and dry,they may work,the radio may play,winter time--nothing---summer time,sporadic but for the most part--nothing. .two years now.don't matter if going or sitting still,any where,just nothing.
When driving at low speeds and making turn veg steering makes loud sound and steering wheel makes vibrating sound and locks temporarily. A code turned on that reads stabilizer trackability it stayed on from that time until now.
Experiencing sporadic issues with my trucks electrical system.what will happen isthat as i'm driving down the road (doesn't matter what speed), i will hear a loud "pop" (sounds exactly like a desktop computer losing power) and then my dashboard/monitor screen will go dark and after a split second everything come back on.the dashboard will flash on and off for a few more seconds.about every third time this happens, if i park the car and try to restart it it won't turn over.in these instances, i can hear current cycling through my power door lock switch along with an electric clicking noise that won't stop.if i let the truck sit for 15 minutes or so, i can get the truck to restart.i have had to have it towed a couple of times because i could never get it to turn over.this problem first occurred when the truck was 3-4 years old and still under warranty. They couldn't find the issue and didn't replace any parts.now all the repairs are coming out of my pocket.i've replaced the battery a couple times thinking i had a faulty battery.later i replaced the battery cable thinking this was the cause and most recently replaced the fuse box.in all instances, the problem would go away for anywhere from 3-6 months and then reappear.as i said it is very intermittent with no consistency to it whatsoever.my truck has never died while driving when this has occurred, although i'm scared to death it will do so and i'll lose all power.my brother-in-law is a master mechanic for a local dealership and it has him completely stumped.he's read through all the tsb's, checked on-line blog's, etc. As well as doing his own technical troubleshooting, but cannot pin down the exact issue.at this point we've resorted to replacing the most likely parts and hoping for the best.as i said i replaced the fuse box about 4 months ago and the problem resurfaced today.
I own a 2008 silverado crew cab, at around 1080 miles i lost all instrument gauges, fuel, oil, temperature and odometer including the driver information sensor. The active fuel management shut down as a result of this incident, where the vehicle does not drop from 8 cylinders to 4 cylinders.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v383000 (air bags). The contact called the friendly chevrolet dealer, located at: 2540 prairie crossing dr, springfield, il 62711 and it was confirmed that the parts were not available. The contact also stated that the ignition key did not turn but the dealer informed that there was not recall for that failure. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair.the manufacturer was made aware of the issue and was not able to confirm when the parts were to become available. Vin tool confirms parts not available. The failure was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.
The problem has been occurring over several months, it is as follows:the door locks activate to the on position then relock.following that, all electronics shut off, the vehicle lurches, then everything comes back on and you continue on the way.it is especially dangerous at night because all lightinggoes off and you are left in the darkness while driving at a high rate of speed.the vehicle has been into the chevrolet dealer an several occasions and they have been unable to find the reason for the problem.the dealer's service manager stated that the vehicle was unsafe and agreed provide me a vehicle, however that was two weeks ago.i have had to purchase another vehicle to drive at night for fear of injuring myself or someone else during one of the episodes.the vehicle is a 2008 chevrolet silverado crew cab with 4 years remaining on the warranty.the episodes occur without warningand at different frequencies, it may happen three or four within an hour or go for a day or two without happening.each time it is a surprise especially if you are traveling 70 miles an hour and at night.
After having driven vehicle a short distance for an appointment, truck would not start an hour later; however, lights came on dash.i waited 10 seconds and tried it again, and it started no problem.then no problem starting the next time but driving around town the radio start shutting off for about 3 seconds before coming back on.this happened a few times, then as i am driving, the entire electrical system starts going haywire, lights flashing on dash with warning lights & messages going off on dash, then everything but the engine shuts off (dash lights, gauges, radio and a/c), after about 5 seconds everything comes back on.i immediately drive to my mechanic who hooked up the computer to my truck and said it was my ignition switch.he said he could not get me in that day and asked me to bring it back the next day.so the rest of that day i did not have any further problems with it.the next day i took it to my mechanic and got the ignition switch replaced.while the mechanic had my truck for several hours until i could go back to pick it up, he said he started it many times and it appeared to be fixed.so i leave the mechanic shop and go back to work, then get off work 2-3 hours later and my truck will not start.after attemping it 3 times, it started.i drive home which is 10 minutes away and turn the truck off and back on.only when i attempt to turn the truck on, it will not start.this time nothing happens...no clicking sound or any attempts of the engine wanting to start....no lights on the dash like before.it was 2 hours later before i was able to get just lights to come on the dash, then another 30 minutes went by before i was able to get my truck to start.this is day 3 of dealing with it and i drove it to work and back home with no problems.i called mechanic who said sounds like a grounding problem.i said sounds like computer system.
Driver side front and back locks just stop working one day.
Additionally, a small number of 2007-2012 model year vehicles that include; 2008-2013 chevrolet avalanche, 2008-2009 chevrolet colorado vehicles; 2007-2013 chevrolet silverado, 2008-2014 suburban, and tahoe vehicles; 2008-2013 gmc sierra and 2009-2012 yukon vehicles; 2008-2009 gmc canyon vehicles; 2009-2010 hummer h2, h3 and h3t vehicles; and 2008-2009 saturn vue and 2009 outlook vehicles may have been serviced with a chassis electronic module that could have internal contamination, causing an electrical short in the module. If the module experiences an electrical short, the vehicle could display a check engine light, stall, or fail to start. If the vehicle experiences this condition and stalls while in motion, there could be an increased risk of a vehicle crash.my vehicle has stalled multiple times while driving as well as failed to start. When these symptoms occurred they are accompanied by a check engine light for a u0109 code (loss of communication with fuel pump control module). I believe that my vehicle, although the vin is not listed, is affected by nhtsa recall bulletin number 14515 as quoted above.

The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500.while driving approximately 10 mph and depressing the brake pedal, the attached trailer continued to move forward and caused the vehicle to sway across the highway.there were no warning indicators prior to the failure.the contact stated that there was a malfunction with the electric brake system, which connects to the trailer's computerized system.there was no power in the electric brake system.the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for repair; however, the failures continued.the vehicle was repaired several times for an identical failure.the vin was unknown.the failure mileage was 500 and current mileage was 5,000.
"takata recall".i spoke to a chevrolet dealership person (all star chevrolet north, 9352 plank road, baton rouge, la) about replacing my truck passenger side airbag.i first contacted them on november 7, 2017 and was told the device was not available.i contacted them again on may 10, 2018 and spoke with amanda.amanda said she would check with her manager to determine if the part was available to schedule the fix but i have not been contacted. I decided to call chevrolet customer assistance center (1-800-222-1020) and i spoke with jane.jane explained that my vehicle is not part of the recall but your web site and chevrolet web site (http://my.gm.com/recalls) state that my vehicle is part of the 'takata recall'.jane mentioned something about chevrolet hiring a third party engineering firm that determined that vehicles like mine was not affected.i asked for this in an email or letter but she said she was not authorized to release this information in written form. 'electrical issue'.vehicle instrumentation panel completely shuts down while driving.this appears to be a common problem when i search the internet.also vehicle shows the 'airbag' needs serving then right after this the 'check engine' symbol appeared.it is hard to believe that these issues are not related. Thanks.

I purchased my 2008 chevrolet silverado crew cab back in 20011.it had approx. 70,000 miles on it at the time of purchase.a few months ago i started having problems with the automatic door locks on the drivers side of my vehicle.i could lock the doors but not unlock them.then a few weeks later, my drivers side speaker went out completely.i am also unable to move the driver and passenger side mirrors in all directions when they need to be adjusted.my cruise control also has recently started working off and on.my passenger side speaker has just recently started going in and out.my left turn signal works but doesn't make any noise when it is turned on.
2008 chevy silverado 1500 fire on 11/20/20i was driving 3 miles to my friends house and as soon as i pulled up, i smelt fire. I got out to find out that my passenger headlight and everything under the hood was on fire!! as i started to run for help, i tripped over a large size curb and landed on my face. My neck, shoulders and back have been difficult to move since this happened.i tried to lift the hood but that was too hot to do so, i ran into my friends house screaming for a fire extinguisher!! as i was running back to remove as much as i could out of the truck her husband came out with the fire extinguisher and she came with the hose. I now i can barely move my neck, my back is in severe pain, and my ribs hurt immensely. As i survived this life threatening ordeal, i started doing background checks on this type of vehicle and 124 deaths have occurred because of this gm problem. How is this not a class action law suit?!!
Have a 2008 chevy silverado, the rear drivers door lock has failed and won't open; now the front door and window is making a dragging noise. Chevy won't stand behind it. But i've seen several reports on line from others with the same problem. What if there was a wreck and someone needed to get to someone in the back or someone needed to get out. Plus if the front one gets worse it could happen to them also. Have taken it to 2 dealers in the portland or. Vancouver wa area, they won't stand behind it and neither will chevrolet. With so many complaints can't something be done to make them honor it.
While driving with cruise control on at highway speeds, the traction stability light came on along with brake light. The door locks activated and all dash backlighting went out. After shutting off engine, all electrical power shut off to include the clock on the radio. I checked battery connections and after wiggling the positive battery cable, the power came on. The clock was set to 12:00, and the a/c was reset to 74. This was the first incident. After several incidents, my truck actually stalled in an intersection and i had to stop in the road to adjust the battery cable. I have had approximately 20 incidents of similar nature, each time with increasing symptoms. At one point, the warning light for the a/c overheating came on. Also, the battery and cables become extremely hot, and stay hot after engine shutdown for several hours until the cable is readjusted. I have read several forums looking for a solution, and have concluded the most likely source is a failing positive battery cable. In the forums, it seems that the cable was redesigned in 2007, and has affected all vehicles through 2013. This poses a threat to overheating battery connections which could lead to a fire, and threat of a vehicle collision.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. While attempting to start the vehicle, it would crank, but not start. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who determined that the chassis electronic control module was contaminated and needed replacement. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 114,000.
Door lock actuators do not always work first it was the passenger rear then driver rear now the passenger front is not working with the research i have don't i have come to the conclusion it is a very common problem even with low mileage trucks of this model year. The issue is not only annoying but can create a dangerous environment.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500.while driving approximately 55 mph on normal road conditions, the contact smelled a strong burning odor.he then noticed that the instrument panel was smoking.the failure occurred without warning.the contact pulled over to the side of the road to inspect the vehicle and observed smoke coming from the front end, followed by flames underneath the hood.the fire department was called to the scene and a report was filed.there were no injuries.the vehicle was towed to a collision center.the vehicle was completely destroyed.the contact was concerned of the safety risk involved.the failure and current mileages were 3,100.updated 12/11/08.*ljupdated 12/11/08.
The drivers door electric lock stopped working, this seems to be an issue with these trucks the factory should fix this issue.
Prelude to this event, involving my 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500 (approx 16,200 miles), was the warranty replacement for the failure of all 4 power door lock actuators. The actuators failed one at a time and each time an actuator would fail, the vehicle would shock the driver when touching the metal door while exiting the vehicle. The last actuator was replaced by the dealership on september 18th, 2009.on september 19th, 2009, after engaging my vehicle into reverse gear, the dashboard electrical went dead. Gauges went dark and radio began to blink. Within 5-10 seconds, smell of burning electrical came into the cab of the vehicle. I popped the hood and my passenger immediately identified a fire near the transmission on the passenger side. The fire was extinguished before engulfing the vehicle. After inspection, we found a shorted out wire near the starter and a broken transmission cooling line. The cause of both anomalies is unknown at this point. Vehicle is at the dealership that the vehicle was purchased from. This occurred under "normal" conditions on an improved driving surface.
While driving on the freeway, the entire electrical system in the vehicle shut down momentarily and came back.the entire dashboard went dark, headlights turned off, door locks cycled up and down, and radio turned off and back on.brought vehicle to dealership and they diagnosed the problem as battery cables needing to be replaced as there was high resistance.searching online for similar statements shows that many other people are complaining of this same problem.this is a major safety issue as it could cause loss of control of the vehicle.working with gm customer service on this, they will not pay for the repairs which totaled $478.95.this is not a part that should fail after less than 5 years.please see these links for others complaining of same issue.http://community.cartalk.com/discussion/2281792/chevy-silverado-electrical-nightmarehttp://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/129454-my-fix-on-my-silverado-electrical-problem/http://www.gminsidenews.com/forums/f31/silverado-electrical-nightmare-106736/http://www.gmtruckclub.com/forum/showthread.php/120918-08-silverado-electrical-issues.
Door locks stick when hot outside and break lights won't go off..i have been pulled over by police and given a warning to get lights fixed.. I took it to a repair shop they think it could be the wiring harness or don't know what is causing it.. But it's dangerous to drive
Since august i have noticed approximately 5-6 incidences when there was a brief failure in the ignition of the truck causing me to have to turn the ignition key a second time.it has started correctly on the 2nd try, so far.however, each time this has happened, i've noticed that the clock went back to default.this does not happen every time nor does there appear to be a pattern for when it happens such as driving a short distance, a long distance or the first start up of the day, etc.i'm not getting any malfunction warnings.the vehicle is up to date on inspections and maintenance.the battery was replaced about a year ago.the vehicle is equipped with an after factory electric brake unit.i am the 2nd owner of this vehicle.to my knowledge, it has not been in any accidents nor has it had any other malfunctions.
Drivers side power lock wont electrically lock with the door switch or key fob. See countless complaints online about this problem.sometimes lock actuates only halfway, and when engine shuts off and placed in park or placed in park with engine still running cannot open door without manually actuating it.

My father was driving a stock dual cab chevy 2008 silverado, not sure what the stock tires for this truck is. Was bought in lucedale, ms at walt massey chevrolet. He was forced off the north side of road traveling west at approx. 60 mph and when reentering pavement or during yawing (still uncertain, but pictures were taken by investigators), the right tire detached from the axle which caused the vehicle to go off other side of road and hit a large oak. The onstar services, which were functioning, did not notify ems or family. The truck was still running when witnesses went to assist him. The vehicle started smoking inside the truck, which made witnesses leave scene and the vehicle blew up and nothing was left to identify him or the vehicle to notify family of his whereabouts.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that the fuse box caught on fire and melted the harness. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer for diagnosis or repairs. The manufacturer was made aware of the problem. The manufacturer informed the contact that the vehicle was not included in any recalls. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
The electric door locks are defective on this year model truck. I had the drivers door lock replaced while the truck was under warranty and at that time the dealer stated that the part was on back order due to the large amount of failure. After the warranty was expired the other three electric door locks have stopped working. I have checked multiple times and have not found a recall for this problem.
Both drivers door and passenger door lock actuators are not working. They don't work with key fob, they don't lock or unlock when the truck is put in drive or when the key is turned off and they don't work with the lock switch on the door. This is a safety issue when it comes to children in the vehicle. This seems the 2008 is a bad year for these actuators and gm should recall. They know they were bad.
While driving out of my driveway, i suddenly lost both power steering and power brakes.i was able to get back into my driveway, but with considerable effort.i called my mechanic and was advised that the power steering pump had failed, causing the power brakes to fail, also.the power steering pump shaft broke.i use the truck mostly to tow a horse trailer.i shudder to think what may have happened had the failure occurred on my way to a camp site on a curving two lane road.i researched the failure on line and discovered it is not a rare occurrence, and has been happening to several model year chevrolet trucks.this is a low mileage vehicle i purchased new.it has never been abused or misused.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that there was approximately two inches of water on the floorboard on the driver's front of the vehicle.

The contact stated that its a manufacturer defect. The contact called register chevrolet (14181 cortez blvd, brooksville, fl 34613, (352) 597-3333) and informed the dealer of the failure. The dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was out of warranty and to contact the manufacturer for assistance. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to nhtsa. The failure mileage was approximately 216,000.
The catalytic converter had strong sulfur smell after the first year. I complained to chevy dealer and was told there was no problem. By year three i complained for the third time again was told no problem the computer didn't show a code. I asked the mechanic to take it for a drive he returned saying the cat was junk it was replaced and i was told only to run top tier gasi did that but after about 8 months it smelled again my truck is just five years old and i need another converter, my power locks have each been replaced three times in second and third year.now i need new airbag sensor and my truck has never been hit .
Car was parked. Door locked with remote while person was in the car with doors and windows closed. Unable to open doors manually from inside or outside. Unable to manually unlock doors from inside or roll windows down. Person inside was trapped and unable to get out of the car. Pushing the door unlock button did not work, nor did manually ilfting the door lock. Only way out was by unlocking the car with the remote.

Driver and rear passenger locks do not work. This is the 2nd time now that these dont work. First it was the front driver side, now its the same side but rear door.it is annoying not having acces to the doors via keyless entry.it was a one of the reason why i bought a keyless entry for safety reason for women.also, i have a grandson who rides with me occasionally, and if emergency occurred, i fear he could be trapped as i would have to insert key to unlock driver door orworse. The rear door has no way to insert any key into door. How do you expect me to save my child if i can't even open it.i have to lower my driver side seat back and reach far back to where locks were placed and manually unlock the back door.recall all trucks back and replace locks in them.this is a serious issue with safety and children safety!!!! this would make 3 locks. One when new purchase vehicle, 2 replaced by dealer and now 3rd its broken again!!!!
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500 lt. The contact stated that the reverse parking assist mechanism failed.

The engine doesn't slow down imediatly after you release accelerator..also the electric system comes on and off in motion...also sometimes speakers work and sometimes the don't ...in motion or not..i lost control of the truck and hit a tree going about 40 mph no airbags were deployed...
Power door locks failed, someone can open the door when the truck is being driven and fall out of the truck, the locks are suppose to engage when the truck is put into drive.
Sdm corrosion due to poor placement. Carpet and other material covered sensor and liquid has completely corroded sensor. Sensor is now dead and air bag light is on.
Short in the electric windows switches for 2008 chevrolet silverado.the drivers front window actuator has been replaced but all four window actuators have gone bad and must be replaced.
I have a short in my fuel pump flow control module. It causes my car to stall while while in operation, check engine light comes on, sometimes it doesn't start, etc. This issue has haunted me for about a year now. I found a recall bulletin from gm; #14515b. This is the exact part # and issue that i'm having but my vin # isn't part of the recall. Is it possible that my vin was missed?

I was entering i-75 interstate ramp and moving along with traffic and about 70 mph, the door locks started going up and down on there own, the instrument cluster needles started sporadically going up and down then they show no signs of anything, the airbag light came on along with the chime sound, the stability control light came on, the truck lost a little bit of power when trying to accelerate, i did smell a burnt wire odor. I have replaced the battery and alternator and still the problem exists. This has happen twice before this incident. The stability control light came on and the truck ran really rough. I took it to my local chevrolet dealership and they told me that the number 8 cylinder had oil leaking into it which i see no signs of blue smoke coming out of the tailpipe and have been driving it for 5 months now with no problems except what is going on now with the electrical system. I have been researching the electrical problems with this year truck and it seems to be a wide spread manufacture problem. I have also seen pictures of the same year truck with the same problems that are described above and this ladies truck burned from the dashboard all the way to the front seats. A total loss. General motors needs to address this problem immediately before someone dies. Recall recall recall!!!....updated 11/13/15 updated 1/4/2016
Takata airbag defect... Defective ignition switch locks key in ignition
While driving at speed door locks will actuate back and forth with all dash lights flashing.eventually car loses all power, engine dies, and have to pulp to side of interstate without power brakes or propulsion. I was personally almost rear ended by a semi at approx 60 mph. Furthermore, it is know that all door panels in this vehicle retain moisture. This has killed all speakers and i guess it could be a potential cause of the afore mentioned problem.
Bought this vehicle brand new in 2008, had problem with passenger window not operating, dealership changed out actuator. Since 2011 the passenger door lock will not engage with fob or with the mechanism on the door nor will it engage when vehicle is put in gear. After reading this web page, it seems to me that this door locking system should be recalled and be repaired at no cost to the customer.
Driver side rear door lock- unlock no longer works. Stuck in locked position though locking mechanism pops up and down.
Brake lights go out when pressure on pedal is decreased without completly releasing pedal.2 new brake switches with updated technology to solve problem according to gm have not stopped this condition. Truck has had this problem since purchased and still have it now 37000 miles later.
I own a 2008 silverado that i bought new before the bailout and everything at chevy was being given away. My problem is intermittent and seems to fix itself, i have had the a/c not work abs lights flash,power door locks fluctuate and all that while driving. When it is parked i will unlock it using the key fob everything will light up truck will unlock get put key in the ignition to start and everything will shut off. It is as if someone took out the battery, i have no horn no 4ways no power of any kind. Now it does not do this all the time but is happening more frequently. Last time i took it to the dealer the tech told me it fixed itself he don't know what he did,but told me to get rid of it as soon as possible. That was while it was under warranty now it will cost me a small fortune for them to tell to get rid of it.
Rapid temporary loss of engine power, doorlocks cycling repeatedly, guages malfunctioning, radio shuts off and turns back on with no preset stations and showing 12:00 on the clock ,cruise control disengages. Once vehicle is shut off, no guages nor lights work...as if there wasn't any battery in the vehicle. Vehicle won't start until dome light is restored on via jumpstarting. Cleaning battery connections and numerous ground wire connections gives short-lived relief from symtoms but problems ultimately return. Chevy dealership diagnosis shows that ground wires have high resistance. Online research shows that tens of thousands of other chevy owners are having similar to exact same problems, yet no recall has been issued. Problem was "fixed" last year and has returned yet again.
Driver and passenger side door locks have failed. It would appear to be the lock actuator/switch.doors will not lock/unlockautomatically.this was a sporadic problem over the last three months and has just started to fail completely. This is not only an inconvenience, this is a safety hazard since the door does not lock when the vehicle is being driven. Apparently this is a common problem with the 2008 chevy truck.only 33,500 miles on the vehicle.
My dash is cracked in two different places. Started out small and are getting larger as time goes on.my power windows and door locks have not worked on the vehicle since i bought it in 2012

Stabilitrak and traction control light going off with blinking check engine light and rough idle, on a highway. It happened on february 3 2019
Forty-five days after purchasing a used 2008 chevy silverado 1500 4x4, the 'service abs and stabilitrak' warning lights appeared on the drivers informational screen.following the manufactures recommendation to re-set the components did not resolve the issues.warning lights appeared every time the vehicle was started.vehicle was returned to dealer where the right-rear wheel sensor was found to be wet, corroded and broken.dealer service advisor (and) technician stated they 'have seen this on many other [same make and model] trucks.'damaged sensor replaced at my expense and old sensor retained by dealer.
After having driven vehicle a short distance for an appointment, truck would not start an hour later; however, lights came on dash.i waited 10 seconds and tried it again, and it started no problem.then no problem starting the next time but driving around town the radio start shutting off for about 3 seconds before coming back on.this happened a few times, then as i am driving, the entire electrical system starts going haywire, lights flashing on dash with warning lights & messages going off on dash, then everything but the engine shuts off (dash lights, gauges, radio and a/c), after about 5 seconds everything comes back on.i immediately drive to my mechanic who hooked up the computer to my truck and said it was my ignition switch.he said he could not get me in that day and asked me to bring it back the next day.so the rest of that day i did not have any further problems with it.the next day i took it to my mechanic and got the ignition switch replaced.while the mechanic had my truck for several hours until i could go back to pick it up, he said he started it many times and it appeared to be fixed.so i leave the mechanic shop and go back to work, then get off work 2-3 hours later and my truck will not start.after attemping it 3 times, it started.i drive home which is 10 minutes away and turn the truck off and back on.only when i attempt to turn the truck on, it will not start.this time nothing happens...no clicking sound or any attempts of the engine wanting to start....no lights on the dash like before.it was 2 hours later before i was able to get just lights to come on the dash, then another 30 minutes went by before i was able to get my truck to start.this is day 3 of dealing with it and i drove it to work and back home with no problems.i called mechanic who said sounds like a grounding problem.i said sounds like computer system.

Passing a vehicle on county black top road,accelerated to initiate passing gear. Accelerator stuck eng rpm at full speed. Attempted to alleviate to no avail. Attempted to shift to neutral but went into reverse also applied brakes. As a result there were 420 ft. Of skid marks then right front wheel hit shoulder of road and vehicle went end over end landing in ditch on its top. The air bags did not deploy and there i was no recorded incidence on the data recorder. The vehicle was totaled by the insurance co. My concern is that this vehicle could be rebuilt and put back on the road as drivable vehicle since it had only 13,000 miles on it. If no cause for the malfunction can be determined there is a distinct possibility this couldhappen again with possible loss of life.updated 06/08/11updated 10/21/11updated 1/18/2012 *lnupdated 2/8/12updated 2/29/12

On multiple occurrences, driving at varying speeds, without traction control disengaged, the parking brake and traction controls warning lights and sounds activated for no apparent reason. The lcd dic indicated stabilitrak off and service brake system messages. Tried engaging and disengaging both the parking brake and traction control with no change. When the parking brake was engaged however, the sounder began sounding again and when disengaged it would shut off. Service brakes, rotors and calipers were replaced approximately 4000-4500 miles ago. First occurrence was about 1000 miles ago. Has occurred 3 times total. Possible bad abs sensor?

The vehicle has a trailer brake issue, the trailer brake intermittently gives you a message saying service trailer brake and you loose brake system connection and the trailer brakes do not work, gm has been aware of the issue since 2007 but cannot and will not fix the issue, they use temporary fixes that last 5-12 months and then when you are out of warranty they will keep charging you and do not fix the issue, the trailer brake message comes up even when there is no trailer connected, gm claims ita short, module, your equipment, water, the plug, there engineers don't even know how to fix it,i have tried all resources and still have the same issue.i personally have spent over 5000.00 and still have the same problemsome one needs to address gm about this before someone get seriously injured or there is a major crash because you loose the brake and cannot stop the vehicle because the trailer brakes don't work due to the manufactures defect in there wire harness or trailer brake system.

I was personally almost rear ended by a semi at approx 60 mph. Furthermore, it is know that all door panels in this vehicle retain moisture. This has killed all speakers and i guess it could be a potential cause of the afore mentioned problem.
Cylinder #4 has failed. Several mechanics have stated that they see several of these failures with engines equippedor programmedwith the active fuel management systems. My engine failure occurred under normal circumstances, 55mph on a farm to market road transitioning from flat roads onto a slight rise when the vehicle started running very noticeably rough. I pulled over and the engine unbalance was very apparent.
Engine lost compression and started ticking while traveling at 65 mph and came to an abrupt stop in traffic. This caused a safety concern with my 2 infant sons as passengers. The engine light was flashing which resulted in a code p0304.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. While the vehicle was stationary and while driving various speeds, the fuel sending unit malfunctioned. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled without warning because the fuel sending unit sent an incorrect signal to the fuel tank, thus signaling to the engine that there was no fuel in the vehicle. Don hall chevrolet inc in ashland, kentucky was made aware of the failure and diagnosed that the fuel sending unit was faulty. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.
Excessive oil consumption found when changing oil at 3,000 miles and no oil was in the engine at all.
Both cylinder heads are cracked. Compression was affected for poor performance.````````````````````````````````````
Rapid temporary loss of engine power, doorlocks cycling repeatedly, guages malfunctioning, radio shuts off and turns back on with no preset stations and showing 12:00 on the clock ,cruise control disengages. Once vehicle is shut off, no guages nor lights work...as if there wasn't any battery in the vehicle. Vehicle won't start until dome light is restored on via jumpstarting. Cleaning battery connections and numerous ground wire connections gives short-lived relief from symtoms but problems ultimately return. Chevy dealership diagnosis shows that ground wires have high resistance. Online research shows that tens of thousands of other chevy owners are having similar to exact same problems, yet no recall has been issued. Problem was "fixed" last year and has returned yet again.
First incident with the engine occurred less than 3 months after purchase. At roughly 88k miles i noticed a skip in power/torque especially when going uphill at a constant speed, a light loss of power was noticed very briefly as if one cylinder was missing. Less than 100 miles later the "service stabilitrak" and check engine lights came on. I had the engine code read and cylinder 7 was misfiring. Took it back to the dealership with 3 days left on my powertrain warranty (thank god right?), wrong. For whatever reason an engine malfunction was not covered under a powertrain warranty. But the leaking and failing brake system was covered. Advised by the dealership the lifters had failed which costed me a grand to fix less than 3 months after purchase. Exactly one year and roughly 20k miles later the truck developed a loud tick right after startup. Its now idling very rough, rpm gauge does not stay consistent at idle and at one point dropped almost to 0, truck almost shut off and then jumped back up. After speaking with an independent mechanic about it he proposed it was the cam from his personal experience. It seems the incorrect material was used on some of the cams construction ("softer metal"). This mechanic told me it can put an indention in the cylinder wall and cause the valves to malfunction, in turn causing the lifters to fail. So if this is true why has there not been a recall for this part? everyone makes mistakes including big companies, they'd be a lot more respectable if they corrected their mistakes. So now my options are to spend all the money i saved for college, fix my truck for $4,000 and not go to school this year or trade it in and get a ford.
The exhaust manifold bolts broke off causing exhaust leak. It will cause engine light to come on,very expensive repair. This is not from normal wear and tear defective material in the bolts. There should be a recall on this.
Started using oil all check engine lights came on an now is knocking motor no good.afm sucks.
At 84000 miles have cylinder 7 collapsed lifter.this is a known and prevalent issue associated with the active fuel managment system (afm). Total repair estimate >$3000.this issue has affected many gm vehicles, especially trucks, with this costly repair.once this occurs it is only a matter of time that the same problem reoccures.

This truck developed big oil use problem
Motor knocks and is using oil a lot of oil and the dash light flicker with the switch.
I have just over 150,000 miles on my 5.3 liter v8 i constantly have to add oil and have had to since i bought this truck with 124,253 miles on the odometer.i generally add 2 quarts a month.i have brought this issue to my local dealership and have been told rhis isallowance. The oil pan gasket, rear main seal, valve cover gaskets, valve covers,the valve seats,and piston rings are all showing degraded signs.i worked as a mechanic for a short time. I am also a retired logistical transportation operator from the army . I have never know this to be in allowance.i understand that some of these issues are at owners responsibility. I just want to make it kniwn that everyone i kniw with this year model truck have tge same exact problems.unfortunately this vehicle does have a salvaged title.
A battery icon comes on my dash with a message about the battery charging system needs to be serviced. It does not matter if the vehicle is stationary or driving this comes on for long enough to read then goes off. The tires pressure sensor is giving a messages as well about needing servicing. The driver's seatbelt latch has stopped allowing the clip to enter i was parked at the time this happened. I have since then tried to spray white lithium to get it moving since i did not have wd40.there was no success. I still have not been able to get the airbag recall fixed.
Engine lost power, rattling badly. After stopping, engine was still running, but had no power and rattled like a lifter blew. Towed to dealer, where they determined that the camshaft blew and damaged #7 lifter. The tech said it was a "materials defect/failure".1.5 months out of powertrain warranty. Gm is giving me grief over taking care of the $3000.00 repair bill. They are offering only $1800.00, but a materials defect should be taken care of by the manufacturer. Truck only has 63000 + miles on it.
The engine is the 5.3 and is suffering from excessive oil loss, normally 2-3 qts between oil changes.
While traveling on the expressway a check traction system warning appeared along with reduced engine power. After approx. 10 miles the engine shut down and i was forced to pull off to the side of the road. I shut the engine off and attempted to restart and the starter would not engage. After waiting approx. 3 minutes i was able to start the car and warning system was gone however the check engine light remained. The engine shut down again after i traveled another 20 miles at which point i repeated the steps outlined above and was able to get the vehicle home.

2008 chevy silverado 1500 fire on 11/20/20i was driving 3 miles to my friends house and as soon as i pulled up, i smelt fire. I got out to find out that my passenger headlight and everything under the hood was on fire!! i tried to lift the hood but that was too hot to do so, and i ran into my girlfriends house screaming for a fire extinguisher!! as i was running back to remove as much as i could out of the truck her husband came out with the fire extinguisher and she came with the hose. I had my briefcase, purse, portable boom box and started running as fast as i could because i thought it was going to blow up, and tripped over the curb and landed face first in the dirt. Now i can barely move my neck, my back is in severe pain, and my ribs hurt immensely. As i survived this life threatening ordeal, i started doing background checks on this type of vehicle and 124 deaths have occurred because of this gm problem. How is this not a class action law suit?!!
Vehicle began to knock and idle rough. Noticed while in stationarymode on a city street. Vehicle is misfiring in cylinder 1. Engine has a history of beating up its cam shaft and lifters.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500.

The manufacturer was not notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 50,379.
While driving home from work the vehicle started making noises and shaking.we took it to the shop to find out the issue was caused by the lifters which are being housed by plastic.according to the mechanic lifters should be held by metal not plastic due to the nature of the requirement on this type of vehicle.using plastic to house the lifters is a bound issue.other parts affected or that had to be changed due to this issue (cam, head set, guides, timer, set wire, set head, coolant, oil and filter).it cost us $3,911.04 to get the truck fixed since the engine basically had to be removed to get to the lifters. This should never have happened if the lifters were stabilized in the correct type of material.we feel a recall should be made for this issue and we should be reimbursed.

Engine stalled multiple times while driving. Pulled codes and found u0109 fuel pump module communication. There is already a recall but my vehicle vin does not apply. Environmental issues with the placement of this module causing corrosion internally shorting printed circuit board.
No fuel from fuel pump, was running cut-off would not re-start,luckily i has just stopped for a soda.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. While the vehicle was stationary and while driving various speeds, the fuel sending unit malfunctioned. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled without warning because the fuel sending unit sent an incorrect signal to the fuel tank, thus signaling to the engine that there was no fuel in the vehicle. Don hall chevrolet inc in ashland, kentucky was made aware of the failure and diagnosed that the fuel sending unit was faulty. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.
Additionally, a small number of 2007-2012 model year vehicles that include; 2008-2013 chevrolet avalanche, 2008-2009 chevrolet colorado vehicles; 2007-2013 chevrolet silverado, 2008-2014 suburban, and tahoe vehicles; 2008-2013 gmc sierra and 2009-2012 yukon vehicles; 2008-2009 gmc canyon vehicles; 2009-2010 hummer h2, h3 and h3t vehicles; and 2008-2009 saturn vue and 2009 outlook vehicles may have been serviced with a chassis electronic module that could have internal contamination, causing an electrical short in the module. If the module experiences an electrical short, the vehicle could display a check engine light, stall, or fail to start. If the vehicle experiences this condition and stalls while in motion, there could be an increased risk of a vehicle crash.my vehicle has stalled multiple times while driving as well as failed to start. When these symptoms occurred they are accompanied by a check engine light for a u0109 code (loss of communication with fuel pump control module). I believe that my vehicle, although the vin is not listed, is affected by nhtsa recall bulletin number 14515 as quoted above.
The engine died without warning while driving at about 30 mph.power steering and brakes were lost making the vehicle very difficult to control.i managed to stop the vehicle safely and had it towed to a chevrolet dealership.the cause of the engine die out was found to be an internal fault in the engine control module.
2008 chevrolet silverado 1500, airbag sensor and check engine light came on with out accident or incident.we called gm and they told us to take it to a dealer.we took to the dealer we bought the truck from new.they ran diagnostic testing and it came back evaporative emission sensor and inflatable restraint front sensor were bad.as a safety/emissions problem it should have been covered under warranty. They gave us a $600 bill in which we made them call the gm representative. They then had us pay $250. 2 1/2 years later and airbag sensor light is back on without accident. This seems to be a big complaint with this year truck.it seems that if the sensor is not working and my family were to be in an accident my airbags would not deploy and we could be hurt or killed in an accident. Please investigate the air bag sensors.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 55 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning.

I have a short in my fuel pump flow control module. It causes my car to stall while while in operation, check engine light comes on, sometimes it doesn't start, etc. This issue has haunted me for about a year now. I found a recall bulletin from gm; #14515b. This is the exact part # and issue that i'm having but my vin # isn't part of the recall. Is it possible that my vin was missed?
Started acting like it was fuel starved. Mechanic said fuel pump.going uphill or under strain began jerking. When leveled out truck did fine. Mechanic said pump in tank now sock gone bad. Seen a lot of these go bad.
Hello, i got a check engine light and found the code is for "low flow, check fuel control module, fuel pump". I found a recall bulletin no.: 14515bdate: january 2015 subject: chassis electronic control module internal contamination. It is model year truck and the exact part number of the control modulebut the local dealer advised gm does not list my vin as being involved, even though my truck is listed in the model year bulletin and it is the exact part number for all vehicles!! my truck could stop at any time and is unsafe to drive. I can;t drive the vehicle for fear of it stalling and even gm advised it could stall in trafiic and is a safety hazard. Please help. Thank you.

Automatic locking door actuator failure on drivers side rear door and passenger side front door.dealer refuses to replace because vehicle is outside of manufacturer warranty.obvious safety issue.
The problem has been occurring over several months, it is as follows:the door locks activate to the on position then relock.following that, all electronics shut off, the vehicle lurches, then everything comes back on and you continue on the way.it is especially dangerous at night because all lightinggoes off and you are left in the darkness while driving at a high rate of speed.the vehicle has been into the chevrolet dealer an several occasions and they have been unable to find the reason for the problem.the dealer's service manager stated that the vehicle was unsafe and agreed provide me a vehicle, however that was two weeks ago.i have had to purchase another vehicle to drive at night for fear of injuring myself or someone else during one of the episodes.the vehicle is a 2008 chevrolet silverado crew cab with 4 years remaining on the warranty.the episodes occur without warningand at different frequencies, it may happen three or four within an hour or go for a day or two without happening.each time it is a surprise especially if you are traveling 70 miles an hour and at night.
Three of the four locks on my 2008 chevy silverado no longer work when using the remote. They quit working right after the 36,000 mile factory warranty expired. The dealer told me it would cost $700 to have them replaced. I contacted chevy directly and they told me they have not had any other complaints about this problem. They wanted me to pay for a diagnosis from a chevy dealer so they could evaluate the problem. It is very inconvenient, and frustrating, to have paid for automatic door locks and they quit working two years after i have the vehicle. You have to manually lock/unlock each door when it should be as simple as pushing a button. It is also a safety issue the locks don't work while the truck is being driven. Now, the rear windows don't operate from the controls on the rear doors. I can't believe, that with all the complaints that i have read regarding the same issue, chevy won't stand behind their product and fix their malfunction. Next time i think i'll buy a ford if this is how chevy treats their customers.
Prelude to this event, involving my 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500 (approx 16,200 miles), was the warranty replacement for the failure of all 4 power door lock actuators. The actuators failed one at a time and each time an actuator would fail, the vehicle would shock the driver when touching the metal door while exiting the vehicle. The last actuator was replaced by the dealership on september 18th, 2009.on september 19th, 2009, after engaging my vehicle into reverse gear, the dashboard electrical went dead. Gauges went dark and radio began to blink. Within 5-10 seconds, smell of burning electrical came into the cab of the vehicle. I popped the hood and my passenger immediately identified a fire near the transmission on the passenger side. The fire was extinguished before engulfing the vehicle. After inspection, we found a shorted out wire near the starter and a broken transmission cooling line. The cause of both anomalies is unknown at this point. Vehicle is at the dealership that the vehicle was purchased from. This occurred under "normal" conditions on an improved driving surface.
The right rear door actuator went out not allowing the door to lock or unlock, other than manually. Not only is this a theft issue, but a safety issue as well. Kids were able to open the door while driving which is an apparent safety problem and after reading numerous other reports of this same problem occurring, it is something that needs to be taken care of/recalled. This is apparently due to a cheap motor made out of china and is a fairly easy issue to resolve.
My door locks stopped working with my remote and door locks on the drivers door .the two back doors lock but not the front. I don't like having to lock the doors manually. Is the any help out the re from gm.
Lock actuators on door locks keep failing. It has happened multiple times. Gm knows this but refuses to fix. Should have been recalled since they know it is a problem but refuse to correct.
Drivers side door lock not working properly.this vehicle equipped with auto locks which can be remote operated.the device that makes the lock work stopped working.as a result the door does not automatically lock or un lock.also with the device being broke the remote locks do not work either. This lock failure going un noticed can leave the people in the vehicle a false sense of security.what if it failed at a passenger door where a child was sitting?what if you locked the truck, walked into the store, walked back out to your truck and someone got in while you were inside?what if you were at a red light and someone came to attack you and the lock failed.this issue could have severe consequences.it gives you a false sense of security.i took the truck to the dealer where they informed me this issue was common and they have been seeing a lot of vehicles brought in for warranty work to replace the defected part.luckily my truck was inside the 36k warranty period so the repair will be made at no cost.however, i have since exceeded the warranty period and from this point forward it will come out of my pocket.
24 nov 2008:bought new 2008 chevrolet silverado pickup truck from local dealer.discovered that the inside door handles, being located below the arm rest (as opposed to being above the arm rest in our trade-in 2007 gmc pickup truck) could not be operated without extreme pain and effort by my wife who has carpal tunnel syndrome in both arms.25 nov 2008:asked the dealer to take this truck back and return my trade-in truck to me.dealer refused.contacted manufacturer.manufacturer refused.this design could trap my wife inside the vehicle in the event of an accident.of special concern is an accident involving a fire in which she would need to exit without delay.i am forced to sell this vehicle at a great loss after driving it only a few miles due to this serious design safety defect.

Driver side front and back locks just stop working one day.
Approximately 2000-4000 miles after the warranty term (but still well under the 36 month limit) i began to notice my power locks weren't working correctly. When i took my truck in to the dealer, the service rep told me that that was a very common problem. After determining i was over warranty mileage limit, he said all he could do is maybe "help me out" on the repair costs. My main concern is how the manufacturer hasn't been more proactive in correcting this problem since, from what my research has revealed, it is a very common issue. I would think that chevrolet would be a little more concerned about the safety and security of their customers and vehicles.
Driver side door lock has failed. It would appear to be the lock actuator this is not only an inconvenience, this is a safety hazard since the door does not lock when the vehicle is being driven. Apparently this is a common problem with the 2008 chevy truck. Only 35000 miles on the vehicle.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that all of the door locks failed to unlock. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was found that the actuators had failed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was 64,375.
Drivers side power lock wont electrically lock with the door switch or key fob. See countless complaints online about this problem.sometimes lock actuates only halfway, and when engine shuts off and placed in park or placed in park with engine still running cannot open door without manually actuating it.
Door lock actuator failures.failure to unlock but doors lock when placed into drive.chevrolet will fix problem for around $1,200.in order to open rear doors on truck you must climd over front console or lower windows to manually unlock.this is a problem on every chevy 2008 and above vehicle that i know of.
The auto door lock stopped working for a second time. When you press the lock button, the door lock do not respond. This could cause people to become trapped in the truck, or a criminal could easily open the door to carjack the driver.
Both drivers door and passenger door lock actuators are not working. They don't work with key fob, they don't lock or unlock when the truck is put in drive or when the key is turned off and they don't work with the lock switch on the door. This is a safety issue when it comes to children in the vehicle. This seems the 2008 is a bad year for these actuators and gm should recall. They know they were bad.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated the door lock actuator motor failed for the power locks and all doors had to be unlocked manually. The dealer was contacted and directed him to the manufacturer. The manufacturer was contacted and informed him there were no recalls and offered no further assistance. The failure mileage was 103,000.
Door lock on drivers side will not lock or unlock. When pressing the remote fob to lock/unlock the truck it tries to move but will not fully go up or down all the way. The same thing happens when using the lock/unlock button from the inside of the truck. I have been locking my truck and walking away with a false sense of security. You can walk up and open my door due to this defect. The alarm will sound but entry has already been made to the vehicle. Even worse what if you needed to lock the door from the inside to avoid someone trying to gain access to you through your vehicle. You would have to remember to hit the lock knob itself because the lock/unlock button does not work. This is bad because gm knows they have chronic problem with this. Just go to the internet and type in "2008 silverado door lock actuator" and see what comes up. It is ridiculous that a company will not stand behind its product. Now that the federal government owns most of gm it will get worse. This will be the last gm product that i ever purchase.
Have a 2008 chevy silverado, the rear drivers door lock has failed and won't open; now the front door and window is making a dragging noise. Chevy won't stand behind it. But i've seen several reports on line from others with the same problem. What if there was a wreck and someone needed to get to someone in the back or someone needed to get out. Plus if the front one gets worse it could happen to them also. Have taken it to 2 dealers in the portland or. Vancouver wa area, they won't stand behind it and neither will chevrolet. With so many complaints can't something be done to make them honor it.
Driver and rear passenger locks do not work. This is the 2nd time now that these dont work. First it was the front driver side, now its the same side but rear door.it is annoying not having acces to the doors via keyless entry.it was a one of the reason why i bought a keyless entry for safety reason for women.also, i have a grandson who rides with me occasionally, and if emergency occurred, i fear he could be trapped as i would have to insert key to unlock driver door orworse. The rear door has no way to insert any key into door. How do you expect me to save my child if i can't even open it.i have to lower my driver side seat back and reach far back to where locks were placed and manually unlock the back door.recall all trucks back and replace locks in them.this is a serious issue with safety and children safety!!!! this would make 3 locks. One when new purchase vehicle, 2 replaced by dealer and now 3rd its broken again!!!!
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated the both rear locks were not working and the front passenger side lock, which was replaced six months ago, was also not working properly. The dealer did not say why the locks failed, but offered to repair the locks and pay for the parts if the contactpaid for the labor. The contact feels the locks should not fail on a vehicle that was two years old. The failure mileage was 48000 and the current mileage was 54000.
Driver and passenger side door locks have failed. It would appear to be the lock actuator/switch.doors will not lock/unlockautomatically.this was a sporadic problem over the last three months and has just started to fail completely. This is not only an inconvenience, this is a safety hazard since the door does not lock when the vehicle is being driven. Apparently this is a common problem with the 2008 chevy truck.only 33,500 miles on the vehicle.
Drivers door lock stopped working unexpectedly.the remote lock/unlock and power lock/unlock no longer work.
The drivers door electric lock stopped working, this seems to be an issue with these trucks the factory should fix this issue.
The rear door will not unlock so you can exit the vehicle in the even of a crash.
I have a 2008 silverado 1500. Locks and latches does not work on the back driver side of my truck. When inquired about it to the dealer it was said i needed some type of motor. I got it fixed which cost me $200. And two weeks later the passenger seat started giving me the exact same problems. To lock the door i have to manually lock it. My remote works for the other three doors but not the passenger door. Anyone can open my truck. I have researched several complaints about this matter i have 45,000 miles on my truck.

Doors do not lock/unlock when alarming or unalarming truck. It occurs daily and not sure how long this has been going on. I happened to get out of my truck and open the back door which would not open. With further investigation, i realized that the lock was not working properly. I wonder how many other owners of this vehicle have no idea that this is happening? i have alarmed my vehicle, then checked the back door to see if it locked with the alarm going off, because the lock had failed! i wonder how many people actually check to see if their truck locked and alarmed properly. I checked with the dealership and it'll cost $100 for them to just look at it because it is past the 3 yr. Warranty. I think this is unfair.

I have had two problems with this truck - one the driver door locks clicker stopped working and i had to have the chevy dealer replace the automatic door locking part - now the brakes are a problem - i have 17,000 miles on this truck and the front rotors had groves in them and had to be turned - the pads have been replaced with heavy duty pads - my regular tire and brake shop in town said they would never have put the heavy duty pads on this truck. Four days after the first fix it started squeaking and i had to take it bake to the dealer and he said they had to keep it and check the brakes were getting hot, they got me a rental car for four days while they took the brakes apart and put them back together and said they must have put them together the first time wrong!
Braking system on my 2008 chevrolet silverado vibrates harshly at speeds above 50 mph.the higher the speed, the more the vibration i feel, making it hard to stop and making the vehicle feel unstable.there is also a popping noise that has been coming from my rear brakes.these issues started at about 5-6k miles and have continued to get worse.i now have 24k miles on my truck and gm has not been able to fix these issues.
I purchased a new chevrolet silverado with the vortec max package in september of 2008. Since new, the vehicle has idled rough and surged at stops. It feels like another vehicle has bumped you from behind. I have brought the vehicle in numerous times to be inspected under warranty. General motors came out with a technical service bulletin stating that if the vehicle has a rough idle with no check engine light it is a normal characteristic of the vehicle. The rough idle causes the vehicles rpm's to spike leading to the surge condition. I have asked for the vehicle to be repaired numerous times under the existing warranty and general motors has not taken action stating it is a normal characteristic. There are many other silverado owners with the same problem that do not believe it is a normal characteristic. Any vehicle that feels like it was bumped from behind is a definite safety concern. I am scheduled for an arbitration hearing on july 11, 2011 with the better business bureau and general motors to discuss the problem. The idle/surge problem happens several times per week. My wife has also experienced the problem while driving the silverado and immediately called me asking what was wrong with the vehicle. I encourage all other general motors customers experiencing this problem to contact general motors, the better business bureau and the nhtsa.

I have a vibration on my pickup that has always been there since it was new, but it got worse and happens all the time on dec 22, 2008. It would vibrate around 65 mph but not often so i thought it may be road conditions.it has been at the dealer under warranty for a total of 8 days on 2 occasions. On the first time they replaced the torque converter and when i picked it up it was the same, i do not believe they even took it for a test drive. They have had it for 4 days this time and can not figure it out.

I reversed out of the driveway into a two lane road. I put it in drive and the truck would not move. I had to get it towed to a gm dealership. They said the sprag clutch failed and sent metal pieces through the rest of the transmission to the point that it was unrepairable. They put a whole new transmission in. Then they discovered the truck would still not move. The rear differential was locked up too and needed to be completely rebuilt. I ended up paying $4,765.89 to repair a 2008 truck with 89,437 miles on it.
When stopped at a light or sign, when you released the brakes it feels like someone hit the rear bumper. This is cause by the york at the rear of the transmission is sticking. Gm dealership will sand and lube the lube. This covers up the problem for a couple of months. If you want the problem fix it will cost you about $350.00. The yoke is not cover by the drivetrain warranty. Even though the yoke is the wrong one,because they will replace it with a nickel plated york and then the problem is solve. The york is the part that comes out of the transmission and hooks to the driveshaft. If the yoke grabs and breaks the rear of the tranny, the driveshaft will drop out and hit the ground. At high speed this could cause a fatal accident.
The catalytic converter had strong sulfur smell after the first year. I complained to chevy dealer and was told there was no problem. By year three i complained for the third time again was told no problem the computer didn't show a code. I asked the mechanic to take it for a drive he returned saying the cat was junk it was replaced and i was told only to run top tier gasi did that but after about 8 months it smelled again my truck is just five years old and i need another converter, my power locks have each been replaced three times in second and third year.now i need new airbag sensor and my truck has never been hit .
I stopped at a store on my way home last night and when i got back in the truck and started it, it made a noise like it would if you turned the key and the engine was already running.i had the same response from starting it this morning after it sat in my garage all night.the truck has only 56,000 miles on it and gets regular maintenance...i'd hate to think i've got to replace the starter already.in the last two months i've had to deal with the "check engine / gas cap" thing and replaced the impact sensor for the air bag.every week i get closer to trading in for a new ford.
Takata recallbeen waiting year &haft for repair dealer said theyarewaitingforparts to come infor year &haft.taking to long
One of the rear wheels locks up intermittently when turning a corner while road is wet can happen on left or right side of vehicle. Went to dealership and explained that i had the same exact problem with my 2000 chevy silverado which cost me about $2,000 to have it repair the dealership ("leahman brothers" in concord ca) they drove the truck for about 5 minutes and said they couldn't duplicate the what it was doing. And wouldn't go any further with the investigation.
Was at a red light when vehicle came to no function. Stabilitrak / traction control light kept coming on and off for months.truck lost driving ability and lights became coming on. Lost brakes, transmission light came on along with stabilitrak, and traction light.vehicle lost acceleration and did not have ability of power.soundedlike spark plugs miss firing. Brakes became disabled and where grinding. (new brakes) had to push my truck off road as it had no pressure to drive. Mechanics think it is the throttle body sensor.will see.
Takata recall # 16v381. I bought this chevy new and was driving to louisiana. My mileage at the time was 35,955 miles. The red colored seat belt light came on. I was to close to the 36,000 mile mark for warranty coverage to make it to shreveport, la. So i have been driving this truck with the light on. I have asked dealerships if they see the problem, but was asked for a commitment for unknown amounts of money to check and repair this problem. Thank the lord i have not been in an accident with this condition. I want to know if this has been the case with other models as mine. I have a second problem with the engine an transmission. The transmission went out at about 92,000 miles and had to be replaced. Lastly the yellow check engine light has been on. I have spent several thousand to fix this. Even at dealership. I would leave and the light would return. Sometimes i had only driven a mile. I have had other mechanics check it out and it appears i have a lifter problem on my number two cylinder causing intermittent misfires to occur. Is this also a problem with my model?

I purchased a new chevy silverado ext. Cab 4x4 ltz and drove approximately 30 miles from the dealership.after traveling through an intersection i noticed smoke coming from the engine compartment.i proceeded approximately another 50 yards in an effort to find a safe place to pull over to investigate the problem.before i could pull over the smoke increased and the interior of the vehicle almost immediately became filled with heavy smoke.i stopped in heavy traffic and used onstar to call for assistance then exited the vehicle and opened the hood to investigate the problem.i saw heavy smoke and flashes of fire coming from the left side of the engine near the catalytic converter. The fire extinguished itself shortly after turning the engine off and the smoke cleared and/or stopped after about five minutes.after the police and fire department cleared the vehicle to be moved, i contacted the dealership and got towed back.after a brief investigation the dealership service department stated that "a component of the transmission was either improperly installed at the factory during assembly or immediately failed in the first 30 miles that the vehicle had been driven.this failure resulted in transmission fluid being sprayed directly onto the catalytic converter thereby causing the fire."

Updated 03/15/13*lj updated 04/19/2013
Seat belt on driver and passenger sides will not lock any longer. They have worn out and broke. This seems very similar to the 2007 recall that happened. This is a 2008 truck.
The dash on my 2008 silverado is cracked. The crack is located at the airbag on the passenger side. The crack is located at the top left side of the airbag opening. I am afraid that if the airbag is deployed the cracked dash will become shrapnel and kill, or seriously injurepeople in the cab of the truck.
A battery icon comes on my dash with a message about the battery charging system needs to be serviced. It does not matter if the vehicle is stationary or driving this comes on for long enough to read then goes off. The tires pressure sensor is giving a messages as well about needing servicing. The driver's seatbelt latch has stopped allowing the clip to enter i was parked at the time this happened. I have since then tried to spray white lithium to get it moving since i did not have wd40.there was no success. I still have not been able to get the airbag recall fixed.
Seat belt locks up when driving on smooth roads. Does not allow driver to lean forward to look in blind spot of drivers side window. Happens on slightly bumpy roads and on smooth roads when making turns or lane changes. Happens every day and can be reproduced at any time.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving 25 mph, the contact heard a loud explosion inside the vehicle without warning. The cabin of the vehicle was filled with smoke. The vehicle was taken to rossi chevrolet buick gmc (360 nj-31, washington, nj 07882, (908) 364-2789) where it was diagnosed that the driver's seat belt tensioner had exploded. There were no injuries. The contact was also informed that the air bags, driver and passenger side seat belt pre-tensioners, and the air bag control module deactivation module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 28,000.
There was an explosion and seat belts tightened up,the deployer for air bags went off, luckily the air bags didn't go off or i would have been in an accident. I complained to gm because there was a call back in 2010 of faulty sensors getting corroded because they are located in a damp area. Gm stated that they were no longer responsible because it was over five years old and over 100,000 miles. But my concern is how dangerous this is when you are just driving down the street and they go off causing a accident. I want gm to pay for repairs so that i can have seat belts again but they claim no responsibility and want me to pay $1200.00 to $1500.00 to have seat belts and air bags again.
I was driving at a speed of approximately 45 mph when a driver, who was cited for failing to yield to the right of way, entered the roadway from my left.the initial impact was my truck's front to the passenger side of the vehicle that entered the roadway.after both vehicles separated, my vehicle continued and struck a median guardrail head-on (another frontal impact) before coming to rest.my seatbelt did not lock and no airbags deployed.the highway patrol investigated the active collision scene.four days later, an independent collision reconstruction expert that i hired inspected my vehicle at my local gm dealership.the inspection revealed that: i was in fact going 45mph, my seatbelt was buckled, my seatbelt pretensioner did not activate, and no airbags deployed.gm has also been contacted by me, and they are currently investigating the issue.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500.while driving between 50-60 mph on normal road conditions, the contact was smoking a cigar and disposed the ashes out of the driver's side window.suddenly, he smelled a burning odor.he observed that the hot ashes had fallen onto the bottom cushion of the driver's seat.the foam seat cushioning began to smolder, but no flames appeared.immediately, the seat cushion was extinguished with liquid.the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer, but they could not assist with the failure.the manufacturer was notified of the hazards of the seat cushion not being flame and smoldered-resistant.the soiled seat cushion has not been repaired.the failure mileage was 9,000 and current mileage was 11,300.
When applying brakes going down a mountains, the front end started shaking, it seemed like the front end was falling out. .i had the truck checked out, the first time gm had the rotars turnedthey said they were warped.this happened 2 more times and it happenswhen i travel to tn or va or west va. These last 2 times i had it fixed at my expense. I finally had new rotars replaced at my expense .i made a trip to fl . And had to go through tn , which is up and down mountains.;and it is happening again with the brakes.it was 1 year oldthe first time this happened. It was taken to gm dealer the first 2 times. The truck only has 63000 miles on it. And the only thing in the truck is my wife and i and the dog and our clothes.
I went to stop at a red light and the brakes wouldn't work. I had to pump them bout three times till it started to work.has happen bout four times now and no brake light or anything will come on.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that the brakes independently applied while the vehicle was being operated at low speeds. The failure occurred without warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the transfer case was defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 68,825.
My abs light came on and my break light came on also..
First incident with the engine occurred less than 3 months after purchase. At roughly 88k miles i noticed a skip in power/torque especially when going uphill at a constant speed, a light loss of power was noticed very briefly as if one cylinder was missing. Less than 100 miles later the "service stabilitrak" and check engine lights came on. I had the engine code read and cylinder 7 was misfiring. Took it back to the dealership with 3 days left on my powertrain warranty (thank god right?), wrong. For whatever reason an engine malfunction was not covered under a powertrain warranty. But the leaking and failing brake system was covered. Advised by the dealership the lifters had failed which costed me a grand to fix less than 3 months after purchase. Exactly one year and roughly 20k miles later the truck developed a loud tick right after startup. Its now idling very rough, rpm gauge does not stay consistent at idle and at one point dropped almost to 0, truck almost shut off and then jumped back up. After speaking with an independent mechanic about it he proposed it was the cam from his personal experience. It seems the incorrect material was used on some of the cams construction ("softer metal"). This mechanic told me it can put an indention in the cylinder wall and cause the valves to malfunction, in turn causing the lifters to fail. So if this is true why has there not been a recall for this part? everyone makes mistakes including big companies, they'd be a lot more respectable if they corrected their mistakes. So now my options are to spend all the money i saved for college, fix my truck for $4,000 and not go to school this year or trade it in and get a ford.
Driving in heavy traffic about 35 mph, quickly depressed brake to stop at red light.brake pedal went to the floor with absolutely no braking.went thru red light at 35 mph, almost hit cross traffic.had truck towed and discovered that brake line had rusted and burst.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that the "service brake trailer system" warning indicator illuminated.

While driving at speed door locks will actuate back and forth with all dash lights flashing.eventually car loses all power, engine dies, and have to pulp to side of interstate without power brakes or propulsion. I was personally almost rear ended by a semi at approx 60 mph. Furthermore, it is know that all door panels in this vehicle retain moisture. This has killed all speakers and i guess it could be a potential cause of the afore mentioned problem.
While driving out of my driveway, i suddenly lost both power steering and power brakes.i was able to get back into my driveway, but with considerable effort.i called my mechanic and was advised that the power steering pump had failed, causing the power brakes to fail, also.the power steering pump shaft broke.i use the truck mostly to tow a horse trailer.i shudder to think what may have happened had the failure occurred on my way to a camp site on a curving two lane road.i researched the failure on line and discovered it is not a rare occurrence, and has been happening to several model year chevrolet trucks.this is a low mileage vehicle i purchased new.it has never been abused or misused.
The vehicle has a trailer brake issue, the trailer brake intermittently gives you a message saying service trailer brake and you loose brake system connection and the trailer brakes do not work, gm has been aware of the issue since 2007 but cannot and will not fix the issue, they use temporary fixes that last 5-12 months and then when you are out of warranty they will keep charging you and do not fix the issue, the trailer brake message comes up even when there is no trailer connected, gm claims ita short, module, your equipment, water, the plug, there engineers don't even know how to fix it,i have tried all resources and still have the same issue.i personally have spent over 5000.00 and still have the same problemsome one needs to address gm about this before someone get seriously injured or there is a major crash because you loose the brake and cannot stop the vehicle because the trailer brakes don't work due to the manufactures defect in there wire harness or trailer brake system.
On multiple occurrences, driving at varying speeds, without traction control disengaged, the parking brake and traction controls warning lights and sounds activated for no apparent reason. The lcd dic indicated stabilitrak off and service brake system messages. Tried engaging and disengaging both the parking brake and traction control with no change. When the parking brake was engaged however, the sounder began sounding again and when disengaged it would shut off. Service brakes, rotors and calipers were replaced approximately 4000-4500 miles ago. First occurrence was about 1000 miles ago. Has occurred 3 times total. Possible bad abs sensor?

I have had two problems with this truck - one the driver door locks clicker stopped working and i had to have the chevy dealer replace the automatic door locking part - now the brakes are a problem - i have 17,000 miles on this truck and the front rotors had groves in them and had to be turned - the pads have been replaced with heavy duty pads - my regular tire and brake shop in town said they would never have put the heavy duty pads on this truck. Four days after the first fix it started squeaking and i had to take it bake to the dealer and he said they had to keep it and check the brakes were getting hot, they got me a rental car for four days while they took the brakes apart and put them back together and said they must have put them together the first time wrong!

Brake fluid flowing out of pin hole in abs ehcu system located on the left frame rail under the drivers seat. Every time you push brake pedal losing all brake fluid.
I have taken the truck to the dealership shop twice regarding the squealing brakes.the first time they said there was a recall on the front brakes and they replaced them at no cost. I had to pay for the rear brake replacement. I took the truck back two weeks later because of the same squealing.they said the only thing they could do was to spray on some kind of metal coating.they said i would have to come back because it would take several hours to dry. If they just replaced defective brakes, why would i have to accept them spraying something on them instead of fixing the problem.my husband has this same truck and his brakes squeal too.
Braking system on my 2008 chevrolet silverado vibrates harshly at speeds above 50 mph.the higher the speed, the more the vibration i feel, making it hard to stop and making the vehicle feel unstable.there is also a popping noise that has been coming from my rear brakes.these issues started at about 5-6k miles and have continued to get worse.i now have 24k miles on my truck and gm has not been able to fix these issues.
Left frt brake hanging up at times. Left frt. Rotor has groves starting to show. Also the pads look ok. Looks like it might be getting hot. The right frt. Brake looks fine. Makes a noise at times when applying brakes.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 mph downhill and depressing the brakes, the front of the vehicle would vibrate.

The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 29,400.
We purchased two 2008 chevrolet pick up trucks on the same date and are experiencing a consistent problem with brake rotor warping. I had to have the rotors turned after 3,000 miles and again at 11,300 miles. It has had to have the rotors turned at 8,000 miles. On april 14, 2009 vehicle #2 was being driven down a steep hill and the brakes barely stopped the truck due to the rotors being warped and overheating. Both vehicles were taken into the dealership today and a complaint #71-716924191 was filed with chevrolet customer assistance national line. Vehicle #1 was being driven down a hill last thursday and that vehicle barely stopped due to bad rotors. We expressed to chevrolet that this is a safety hazard and they said they will continue to follow the guidelines of their warranty and turned down the rotors as necessary as long as there is still serviceable life left in them. They will not install any better rotors nor would they offer any other solution. The dealer service adviser told us that they have problems with all pick up truck rotors on vehicles that frequently travel on hills and have had problems with cars as well. These two pick-up trucks do not normally tow anything, only have one person in the vehicle, and usually have a four wheel atv on the back which weighs about 360 pounds which is less than two of three people occupying a cab. The vehicles are driven on some farm lanes and get some mud on the wheels infrequently but they said this contributes to the rotors overheating. Pickup trucks are supposed to be designed for heavier use "chevy tough is their advertising slogan" and these pickups, do not see much heavy use. We feel this is a considerable safety hazard of brake failure and looks like it will be an ongoing problem well after the warranty period expires. We live in a hilly area with many steep roads and were never advised that the trucks could not withstand these conditions.
I have taken my 2008 chevy silverado truck to the dealer several time to the dealer for many different problems. One specifically, brakes. The brakes have given me a problem ever since i bought the truck and have been replaced once. After replacement the problem still occurs. The dealer says the problem is normal. A new vehicle should not have so many problems. I've been taking the truck to the dealer for all my concerns. Now they say its a maintenance issue. After i've taken it so many times, now they say that's what it is. I do not believe that is right. I have all paperwork of me taking the truck to the dealer for my concerns. I believe you will see that i have taken it so many times, that my case should be handled. I have called the bank that has the loan of the truck, and have called chevy and gm customer service. No follow up is attempted from the customer services. Now i do not have faith in the vehicle. It is not safe for me to have a defective truck.
I drive a 2008 chevy silverado crew cab and the front passenger side brakes wore completely to the metal due to the negligence of the dealership.i spoke with the owner and they are incurring some of the cost, but after they inspected the vehicle the back brakes are also worn.the truck has 39,700 miles and all the brakes are being replaced, front and back.i have always complained to the dealership about my brakes not working properly and they always came up with some sort of explanation to justify the noise.this is my 4th chevy truck and the first one where all the brakes are being replaced at the same time before it has hit 40,000.
Upon braking hard to avoid hitting vehiclesbraking abruptly in front of me, all four wheels of my vehicle locked up and just slid on dry pavement. Anti-lock brakes didn't work as designed.

Noticed rather large crack on 2008 chevrolet silverado ltz dash board on the driver side hump of the dash and passenger side airbag. Dealer estimated at the minimum of $400 repair. Could possibly cause harm if ever in accident.
Design defect - extended cab - low to high volume high pitch wind howl when driving into a head wind depending on intensity & direction of wind.loud enough that an onstar operator could hear it & it could be recorded on the dealer"s general managers voice mail.makes conversation difficult.dealer doesn't have a clue as to what to do to find & correct it.a second design blunder was replacing the charcoal gray interior in previous years with the ebony interior.it is impossible to keep clean & attracts lint & dirt like a magnet.the gray interior was the perfect color combination with the tweed pattern seat inserts.a third blunder is the raising the truck body 3 inches higher off the ground plus adding 2 inches to the depth of the bed making the bed rail 5 inches higher off the ground.the combination makes it very difficult to access objects in the bed from the sides of the truck.to make the truck usable for my work i am having to have it lowered 2 inches in front & 3 in the rear.
Cracks in the dash around front passenger air bag.if air bag is deployed in the event of a front end collision, pieces of the dash can come loose and cause additional injuries, or possibly damage the air bag during deployment.

On our 2008 chevy silverado 1500 lt 4x4 z71, the dashboard has cracked so badly where the passenger airbag is, that if the airbag were to deploy, plastic shrapnel is going to go flying, which could injure or possibly kill someone. On the flipside; the airbag may not even deploy due to the damaged dashboard. In either case, this is a major safety issue that gm refuses to acknowledge, despite now thousands of customers tahoes, suburbans, and (all chevy & gmc trucks & suv's 2007 and newer) having the exact same issue. After multiple calls to chevy and gm, and them being extremely rude and in denial; the best they can do is to replace the dash for a price of $200-500, which we currently don't have, and should not have to pay for, as gm should stand behind the safety of their vehicles after charging the prices they do. In the meantime, we don't feel safe even driving our truck down the street. This is a serious safety issue, and needs to be an urgent recall, before someone is killed! there are message boards, facebook pages, and twitter accounts all set up just for frustrated chevy & gmc customers having the cracked dashboard and airbag issue, so please investigate this problem, nhtsa. Since gm refuses to help it's thousands of scared customers, we pray you will help to stop this madness.

Major crack on interior dashboard. Company (gm) refuses to issue recall.
Dashboard cracked by passenger air bag then two weeks later it cracked over the gauges.
Pulling out of a parking lot i started to accelerate, to get into traffic i heard a horn and looked over, only to run straight into a light pole.it was a pretty strong impact.my airbag did not deploy and my face and head hit the steering wheel.
I am complaining about the safety of my truck frame. It is completely rusted through in a few spots and i don't know how safe it is to keep driving. This is a combination of poor engineering/ cheap steel from gm's side and the highly corrosive chemicals that are put on the roads in new england from the dot. Gm has clearly stated that they will not help me with this problem and i am on my own to cover the cost of a new frame or a new vehicle.
Dashboard has developed cracks in multiple locations.one is located by the passenger air bag.another is located near the driver side instrument cluster.the one near the airbag is particularly worrisome.in the event that the airbag was to deploy, jagged pieces of plastic could puncture the airbag or be propelled at the vehicle occupants.the vehicle was not involved in any type of accident or crash.these cracks in the dashboard simply appeared over time and appear to be very common among chevy trucks in the model years of 2007-2013.i checked online and there are thousands of internet posts/forums discussing this problem.gm should be held accountable for fixing this defect.

The right rear door actuator went out not allowing the door to lock or unlock, other than manually. Not only is this a theft issue, but a safety issue as well. Kids were able to open the door while driving which is an apparent safety problem and after reading numerous other reports of this same problem occurring, it is something that needs to be taken care of/recalled. This is apparently due to a cheap motor made out of china and is a fairly easy issue to resolve.
Takata recaltop dash desinigration
2008 chevy silverado 1500 fire on 11/20/20i was driving 3 miles to my friends house and as soon as i pulled up, i smelt fire. I got out to find out that my passenger headlight and everything under the hood was on fire!! as i started to run for help, i tripped over a large size curb and landed on my face. My neck, shoulders and back have been difficult to move since this happened.i tried to lift the hood but that was too hot to do so, i ran into my friends house screaming for a fire extinguisher!! as i was running back to remove as much as i could out of the truck her husband came out with the fire extinguisher and she came with the hose. I now i can barely move my neck, my back is in severe pain, and my ribs hurt immensely. As i survived this life threatening ordeal, i started doing background checks on this type of vehicle and 124 deaths have occurred because of this gm problem. How is this not a class action law suit?!!
Extensive frame damage from premature rust. This frame at only 10 years old should not be rusted completely though.
2008 chevrolet silverado 1500 ltz.dash board and around airbag cracking.
The chassis frame is rusting excessively in my truck with 34000 miles. Takata recall. Airbag light always on, seems defective.
My dash has cracks in many places that started within 6 months after the warranty expired. It continues to get worse. However what concerns me the most isthey're three located around the passenger side airbag. How is this not a safety issue? if my airbag inflates the dash could puncture the airbag or pieces can be thrown toward the passenger or even the driver. If you search gm cracked dash you will find endless articles and videos of people with the same issue. This vehicle is driven by my teenage son who i would definitely want the airbags to work properly and not get punctured when inflated during a crash. Also as stated by many others we don't have a $1000 + to spend on a dash that should have never cracked in the first place.
Takara recall. Check airbag warning light on. Dealer informed me no date for repair parts. Dashboardbroken and cracked in multiple places. Complete section broken out above steering wheel.

Vehicle rocker panels rusted all the way through ,not much structural integrity left both drivers and passenger sides. Vehicle has been well maintained , washed and rinsed of any road salt etc. Dailey!! during life of vehicle. Other areas, wheel wells ,stock towing hitch reciever(towing package) ,cab corners ,completely rusted through!!! frame also begining to show deep pitting in areasthat you can push a screw driver right through rusted area. Metal used for structural and body components of this vehicle totally junk!! also 2 years ago i kept smelling gasoline when exiting vehicle after driving, long story short, had to remove truck bed and on top of fuel tank coming out are metal tubes , which are part of fuel pump inside tank, to which the fuel lines are connected to, well one of the metal tubes was totally rusted off, which was the fuel return line? which was why i was smelling gas, which was leaking out very close if not on the exhaust system when driving. I 'm no expert ,but i think this might qualify as a safety issue. Thank you
Air bag light is in and i had a lifter failure on my motor. Bed and rockersare rotting out

I ordered a mevotech control arm ball joint assembly from an online dealer 6 months ago. The ball joint failed and sheared in half causing a good amount of damage to my vehicle. I worked with the dealer i bought the part from and they are not covering the costs for the damage caused due to the failing part. Now the company who made the part is also saying they will not pay for the damages.my whole truck came slamming down on the tire and damaged wheel well components (fender liner), the fender flare, and gashed my tire and rim. I had to have the truck towed home because it was inoperable.

I was coming home from a trip and as i pulled into my driveway i heard this loud bang and metal flying and hitting the ground.i stopped the vehicle and shut the engine off to investigate and found under my truck a 25-inch piece of metal belonging to the suspension - leaf spring system that could be clearly seen as rusted through.i am very fortunate for this to occur in my driveway and not on the highway, loss of control to the vehicle or someone behind my vehicle getting hit by this heavy piece of metal was a good possibility ! i called a couple of dealers to get this replaced and found one that could take me in right away.

I just got carfax report today havnt had the truck for even a year.
The dash has developed cracks that may cause injuries to any body part that contacts it due to sharp edges. It may also cause injury during a crash and possibly by airbag deployment.

Dashboard is cracked all the way across from passenger side and driver side and in the middle. Looks like an earthquake. Crack is noticeable at all times.

Cracks on the dashboard suddenly appear at the passenger air bag side and above the radio controls. I'm the original owner and always take care of my truck, this is just very poor quality and possible a safety issue since cracks are next to the air bag! gm must replace this at no cost for the customers!

My husband has a 2008 chevy silverado and the dash board is cracking
Dashboard started a small crack on top of dashboard surrounding there passenger airbag. Another crack started on top dashboard and traveled to the windshield.the dash is now separated into two pieces. The dealer explained my warranty excluded trim and could not warranty the part. No accident or trauma was the cause. General motors was notified and they were not any help in this matter. I now fear sharp plastic will be expelled in the cab if airbag is deployed.
With truck stationary, i have inspected and observed the following. Dash has cracked through multiple locations to include areas for stored airbags. Rattling sound is coming from insecure dash. Radio and speakers function intermittently and other times with static. Replaced speakers in doors and that did not resolve the problem. Drivers seat belt did not connect to receiver end. Replaced part ordered from gm parts website. A constant water leak comes from underneath dash along firewall into drivers side floorboards. Water soaked carpet and insulation has wicked to rear floor areas. No one has found the water source, but it has rusteddriver side door panel screws and ruined carpet. Water appears to be worse when using hvacc or defroster. Replaced fuel vent valve solenoid underneath truck, near refuel cap/door, three times due to check eng light.

I have read there are a great number of failures but gm has nothing in place to replace them under a recall.
Dashboard cracking all over, in particular around the passenger airbag. Concern of potential shrapnel from the dashboard if the airbag was to be deployed.
Takata recall . I've notified my local dealership "woodland motors" 2 or 3 times about this. They keep saying that my vehicle isn't part of the recall, yet i've received a couple of notices saying the opposite, and also when i used the form that led to this site, it tells me that my vehicle is eligible. ... ... Aside from that, i've actually not experienced to my knowledge, faulty airbag functionality. Vin: [xxx]nhtsa recall number: 16v381 mf recall number: 2049151information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
I was onhighway 84 passing another car at speed 75 mphthe door locks started came on and off, the safety belt lights came on, the engine started to slow and speed up, the clock went from 4:00 pm to 12:00 pm, the date went to 01/01/2004, the a/c started to blow hot air. I stopped on the shoulder and turned it off, everything stopped only the abs light stayed on.i called onstar to check what's wrong, they said everything looks good, check the tires, if the tires are good, you are good to drive. All tires were 33psi. I reset all the electronic functions and went home. I was in danger for at least 5 minutes in the left lane passing another car.

Dashboard has 3 large cracks that occurred with no accidents or trauma to the vehicle. The vehicle was stationary when cracks occurred.the cracks occurred at three different times.the two smaller cracks are around the airbag housing.(see pictures)
The dash on these vehicles crack for no reason at all. I'm a bit worried that if an airbag was deployed that someone could be injured due to the sharp debris from the hard plastic these dashes are made of. There is numerous trucks from gm which these dashes are cracking in the same spots and gm is not recalling them which they should. It is going to end up being a liability and someone will get injured due to there cheap plastic and poor engineering! my truck barely gets drove and sits in my driveway and i have came out twice to find two new cracks out of nowhere!
I have a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500 like many others i have a cracked dashboard. One of them is a small crack next to the passenger airbag and another much larger one is on the drivers side above the gauges. I've always kept my dashboard covered when it was parked with a cover that goes across the windshield and used a product protect and keep the dashboard new. To me it seems like the problem stems from improperly placed screws and clasps or possibly an inferior material for the dashboard.
When locks are activated with key fob, doors can not be unlocked without using key fob. A person could be trapped inside the vehicle.chevrolet dealers do not have a fix for this.
My dash starting cracking at 30k miles. I assume it was just my luck. I looked up replacement parts to fix my dash, and i stumbled upon thousands of gm vehicles with the same issue... Gm charged us good money for our vehicles. I bought for being a safe vehicle. I'm not sure if my airbag will deploy for my passenger and where will all the shredded dash plastic will have to be picked out of me and my passengers bodies...
As others are worried, the dash boards of these trucks and suvs in the 07+ model years are prone to crack into pieces, especially around the passenger airbag.the dash can become projectiles upon airbag deployment and can cause injury to occupants of the vehicle.although i'm not aware of this happening, i am concerned, along with many others, that this can pose a very dangerous safety hazard.

I bought this truck new 9/2008. Frame was starting to flake off its factory undercoating and some rust was showing. Present time july 2015 frame is still flaking off its factory undercoating and rusting everywhere.
Dash starting cracking around passenger air bag three years ago and is now cracking in two more places above the radio. Gm refuses to make any effort to help with the outrageous cost of repairing this defect. I have great concerns about shards of plastic flying in cab from the recalled tokata air bags that are in this vehicle that i am still waiting on gm to come up with a replacement for.
I have a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500 and the dashboard is cracked in two different places. One crack is on the passenger side, directly over the air bag. The other crack is above the left side of the instrument cluster. Every 2008-2013 chevrolet pickup or suv that i have seen has one, if not both, of these cracks. I feel that it is very unsafe to have any damage in or around the airbag system, and i do not understand why gm will not fix an issue that is their fault.
My father experienced a problem with his 2008 chevy silverado, he had the same switch problem that other chevy vehicles have been recalled for.having the truck checked out by a gmc dealer he was told he would have to pay to have it corrected as it was no longer under warranty. They told him to use only the key and be sure nothing else is attached to the key. That is exactly what the recall stated about the other vehicles that are on the recall list. His problem is the same as those vehicles. So why no recall on his vehicle?

I am writing to you today to express my concern over cracked dashboards due to a faulty product of gm/chevrolet.i have a huge crack in my dashboard which is not caused by maintenance or the sun. This vehicle also has not been in an accident that could of caused this.i have 3 other people at my work that has this same problem in the same spot. You can also read about several other stories onlinewith the same issue.gm refuses to put out a recall to fix their faulty product.i fear that in an accident this will cause pieces of the dashboard to fly about the vehicle causing further injuries to a passenger if the airbag deploys.
My dash is cracked on the left side of airbag. This happened a little over a year ago. The dash now is cracked in two places on the left side of airbag and also on driverside of dash. I have contacted dealer and also general motors when i first noticed this in 2014. I also contacted them again in 2015, i was told this is not a safety issue. My concern is they told me that i know this is a problem and i need to fix this or i am responsible if there is a problem with airbag deploying or a piece of the dash injuring someone in the event that the airbag does deploy. I feel this a safety issue that needs to be recalled.
Dash on my truck is cracked in multiple places, with one near the airbag.i'm concerned that if my airbag ever inflates, pieces of the dash will become projectiles due to how brittle it is.this could cause serious injury.
The dashboard is cracking and falling apart. It started with cracking around the passenger side airbag. It is now cracking forward of the instrument panel. This is a safety issue if involved in a crash and the airbag deploys. I contacted gm/chevrolet and they said they cannot offer any assistance because of the mileage, 183k. The question is, why are the dashes cracking at all !
[xxx] dash board is all broken up. I have hear alot of these trucks have the same problem.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
After having driven vehicle a short distance for an appointment, truck would not start an hour later; however, lights came on dash.i waited 10 seconds and tried it again, and it started no problem.then no problem starting the next time but driving around town the radio start shutting off for about 3 seconds before coming back on.this happened a few times, then as i am driving, the entire electrical system starts going haywire, lights flashing on dash with warning lights & messages going off on dash, then everything but the engine shuts off (dash lights, gauges, radio and a/c), after about 5 seconds everything comes back on.i immediately drive to my mechanic who hooked up the computer to my truck and said it was my ignition switch.he said he could not get me in that day and asked me to bring it back the next day.so the rest of that day i did not have any further problems with it.the next day i took it to my mechanic and got the ignition switch replaced.while the mechanic had my truck for several hours until i could go back to pick it up, he said he started it many times and it appeared to be fixed.so i leave the mechanic shop and go back to work, then get off work 2-3 hours later and my truck will not start.after attemping it 3 times, it started.i drive home which is 10 minutes away and turn the truck off and back on.only when i attempt to turn the truck on, it will not start.this time nothing happens...no clicking sound or any attempts of the engine wanting to start....no lights on the dash like before.it was 2 hours later before i was able to get just lights to come on the dash, then another 30 minutes went by before i was able to get my truck to start.this is day 3 of dealing with it and i drove it to work and back home with no problems.i called mechanic who said sounds like a grounding problem.i said sounds like computer system.
The dash board started with a small crack, noticed the crack when i got into my vehicle, don't recall the exact date but happened a year or two ago. Sometime in july 2016 i got into my vehicle and now the crack has gotten worse. Both times when i noticed the cracks my vehicle was parked.
I purchased this truck brand new in august 2008. I noticed the first dashboard crack, on the left side of the passenger air bag, about two years later. I took my truck to the dealership i bought it from, over concerns about possible splintering of the dashboard in the event an airbag deployment. The dealer only offered to replace the defective component. The quote was just over $1200. He also assured me that my still active, "bumber to bumber" warranty would not cover this particular defect. Of course now i've got a crack from the defrost vent to the windshield, and cracking over the gauge cluster so severe that it is basically a hole. It is more than obvious that this component is defective in material, design, application or mounting method. It is also obvious that this component is a safety hazard due to the likelihood of splintering should an impact and/or an airbag deployment occur. The hole in my dashboard also represents multiple violations of automotive safety and construction standards.set forth by the federal government. All that being said, i have taken immaculate care of this vehicle and there is no plausible explanation other than a defect in the component itself.
Takata recall dash is coming apart on the passenger side. The airbag light stays on because the dash is cracked where the airbag is located. This is on the passenger side. Fear for safety. We believe it is unsafe. It appears defective. Chevrolet refuses to fix.
Rapid temporary loss of engine power, doorlocks cycling repeatedly, guages malfunctioning, radio shuts off and turns back on with no preset stations and showing 12:00 on the clock ,cruise control disengages. Once vehicle is shut off, no guages nor lights work...as if there wasn't any battery in the vehicle. Vehicle won't start until dome light is restored on via jumpstarting. Cleaning battery connections and numerous ground wire connections gives short-lived relief from symtoms but problems ultimately return. Chevy dealership diagnosis shows that ground wires have high resistance. Online research shows that tens of thousands of other chevy owners are having similar to exact same problems, yet no recall has been issued. Problem was "fixed" last year and has returned yet again.
2008 chevrolet silverado.consumer writes in regards to recall notice 16v-381 replacement parts and states dealership found bad connection in airbag wiring located behind seat. The consumer stated the air bag light illuminated on june 13, 2012. Also, the cruise control and passenger door lock did not work.
Driving 59 mph with cruise control on. Accelerated hard to pass a truck. Accelerator stuck open and could not stop it. Had to hit brakes three times, each time increasingly harder, until acceleration stopped and truck started to slow. Had accelerated to over 80 mph.
Dash board cracks everywhere! i been using sun reflector sinc a bought the truck but cracks still coming out cheap material!!!
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact was driving 5 mph when the vehicle abnormally accelerated. The vehicle was taken to a private mechanic and the manufacturer was not contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 23,000 and the current mileage was 23,050.
The problem was not with the air bag, but the front switch that activates the air bags upon impact. When one or both fail the test when you turn the ignition on, it posts a message saying service the air bag system. There is lots of information regarding this on utube. Apparently this is a common problem. I am an electrician and an electronics tech, i know that the air bags will not activate if the crash is on the side with a bad air bag. I had 2 brake light switches go out, at which time the person behind me,would have no idea, i was braking. The switch is a 2 part switch, one part controls the brake light, the other enables or disengages the cruise control system.
I have a2008 silverado like new the electrical system is giving me a hard time i replace the alternator, battery, headlight and still have ''thisissue headlight dimming at night time, cruise control not working properly ! i wish gm can help me

The engine doesn't slow down imediatly after you release accelerator..also the electric system comes on and off in motion...also sometimes speakers work and sometimes the don't ...in motion or not..i lost control of the truck and hit a tree going about 40 mph no airbags were deployed...
Passing a vehicle on county black top road,accelerated to initiate passing gear. Accelerator stuck eng rpm at full speed. Attempted to alleviate to no avail. Attempted to shift to neutral but went into reverse also applied brakes. As a result there were 420 ft. Of skid marks then right front wheel hit shoulder of road and vehicle went end over end landing in ditch on its top. The air bags did not deploy and there i was no recorded incidence on the data recorder. The vehicle was totaled by the insurance co. My concern is that this vehicle could be rebuilt and put back on the road as drivable vehicle since it had only 13,000 miles on it. If no cause for the malfunction can be determined there is a distinct possibility this couldhappen again with possible loss of life.updated 06/08/11updated 10/21/11updated 1/18/2012 *lnupdated 2/8/12updated 2/29/12

Safety recall 10153.the solutions offered by gm is inadequate.they want to disconnect the washer heater and compensate with $100. 1. $100 dollars does not adequately reflect the value of this heated washer option and its loss or the devaluation of my vehicle if the feature is disabled. 2. The heated washer fluid option is a very important safety feature 3. The heated washer fluid system should be repaired, not disconnected.i want to know why gm is not replacing the modules with a equipment that resolves the problem.
The contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. While driving approximately 60 mph, a sudden banging and rattling noise was present coming from the engine. The vehicle was shut off and towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that a piston in the engine had blown. The vehicle was not repaired.

I was traveling from my home to alexandria,la. To pick up some parts for our farm.weather conditions were changing from warm to cooler temperature due to an incomingcold front. Traveling 55 mph on a new smooth section of la. Highway 1, when all of a sudden a loud glass shattering noise happened behind me. When i looked back i saw the rear window had shattered and all of the shattered glass had blown out towards the rear bed of the truck. I notified southern chevrolet of the incident by driving by there to show the sales person the exploded condition of the window. After attempting to get the manager, we went in talked with the service manager about it. She had no recollection of previous failures on this truck make. The sales person said he would follow up with the manger and research of any other problems associated with this style of truck and contact me. No response received as of this date 10.23.08. I then proceeded to glass plus and had the back windshield replaced because the rain starting.
I have a 2008 chevrolet silverado with very low mileage. The issue is a structurally defective windshield. The windshield started cracking under the driver side molding and has progressed towards the center of the windshield. I know for a fact that nothing hit the windshield and the fact that the crack started when there was no one around else on the road. I went to local dealership to have it reviewed. The service manager simply glanced at the windshield and concluded that something hit the windshield when it fact there is nothing to substantiate that statement.. He went on to sell me the line that if there was a defect in the materials that the crack would have showed up before 7,500 miles. As a structural engineer i know that this is factually incorrect statement and nothing more then an excuse to do nothing.
Cracked chevrolet dash flaps when windows rolled down creating visible distraction very similar to attached picturechevrolet knows this is an ongoing issue for their 2007-2014 models and apparently won't do anything unless compelled to by a regulatory body.if i get into an accident i will make sure to advise of what caused the distraction. This is not only an eyesore butit is also incredibly dangerous.who makes new vehicles with all the emissions standards and then skimps on the dash?this is such a problem there is a facebook group with 6,825 members and you can do find it by searching. "07-14 gm cracked dash safety hazard for all trucks"
2008 chevrolet silverado - air conditioner blows hot air out of drivers side and cold air out of passenger side. Extremely hot air blows out of the drivers side whenever the air is set on 60 (hotter thanthe max 90).

I am not sure if a part was fixed or replaced but the issue ceased and now has started again.

I ordered a mevotech control arm ball joint assembly from an online dealer 6 months ago. The ball joint failed and sheared in half causing a good amount of damage to my vehicle. I worked with the dealer i bought the part from and they are not covering the costs for the damage caused due to the failing part. Now the company who made the part is also saying they will not pay for the damages.my whole truck came slamming down on the tire and damaged wheel well components (fender liner), the fender flare, and gashed my tire and rim. I had to have the truck towed home because it was inoperable.
