I just bought this truck in June of 2024. This was a bad dealer because he knowingly sold me the truck with severe frame damage and let me drive a dangerous truck off the lot. I cannot deem it as a total loss to have it replaced because it falls under “wear and tear”. I now have to pay for the truck for the next 5 years and don’t have the money to fix it because the quote states it will be around $13,000, which is how much he sold me the truck for. Because it is a 2010 the warranty has expired. I am completely frustrated and disappointed that there is no one to help me with this betrayal. I have read that many others who have bought GMC’s are and have had the same issues and GM refuses to recall the frames. Something needs to be done about this considering it is GM who did not apply any anti-rust or anti-corrosion to the frames on their vehicles.

My trailer brake service light is on and my trailer brakes don’t work . That’s about all I can think of and haven’t been able to figure out the fix.

The component unknown, I do not know what caused this to happen. The charging system suddenly drops and power to the truck is shutting off or losing power. The electric doors and dash lights, plus trailer frailer all occur and locks going up and down. Today on a major highway in Kansas City, All dash lights and indicators came on and then the truck started to stop in major traffic. I had to put the transmission in neutral and out of gear and try to keep from losing control of the truck as the were trying to lock up. I quickly shut of the ignition and then turned it back on. I put on a new alternator thinking that would fix the problem. Well 200 dollars later and two days later is when this major problem cause me almost to be in a serious accident. I usually get my service done at Cable Dahmer Chevrolet in Independence MO. I am beside myself, as I know of another owner that has the same year and his is now doing the same thing. Is this a serious problem that may have been going on in other similar vehicles, I would say so. Since I did not panic and made the truck keep going and stop it from locking up, what would be the safety factor of someone, who could not know what to do? No warning lights or nothing lit up just cruising along. No accident and have not had it access yet. I have yet to contact the Chevy dealer and yes it was a high risk concern. No one was hurt or injured, but could have been. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The vehicle is having electrical issues and it effects it by shutting off in the middle of traffic on a highway it also effects the throttle sensor by accelerating when you come to a stop at a stop light and the transmission jumps a gear when it does that.

When driving the truck will shutter and eventually stall. This happens when driving at all speeds, even when sitting idle. The dealer tells me there was an extended warranty on this part but I was not notified. I feel this is a safety concern and should be replaced regardless of milage.

While driving on highway at 65-70 MPH, electrical system shut down the tachometer, speedometer, fuel and all other gauges. Lights and turn signals remained on. Transmission downshifted and would not shift up after a complete stop. Shifting transmission to park, reverse or neutral would not register, but would shift. Service engine, ABS light and stabilitrak off light came on. On a separate occasion message center read service traction control, service stabilitrak on a similar occurrence, while coming to a stop. This has occurred several times. Drove home, without speedometer and miles did not register on odometer.

While driving the vehicle will alert "stabilitrack off" and then moments later "engine power reduced". You are then forced to immediately pull over and turn off the vehicle for at least 1 minute before turning it back on. This can happen on roads where it is dangerous to pull over putting myself and others at risk for an accident. The transmission has been replaced and no other auto shop has an answer for me as to what is causing the issue. The computer has been reset multiple times and sometimes this will help the issue not happen for a long length of time but the issue always comes back. I have read hundreds of reviews of other owners having the same issue, the conclusion is no one has the same fix and the majority of the time there is no fix.
