The dash cracked on passenger side 80 k.this vehicle is very well-maintained it looks like it rolled off the showroom floor. Takata airbag recall what a joke. So you recall the vehicle but you don't have the parts to fix it. The vehicle has a defect in the fuel system, I started noticing it when I would fill up with fuel. It has to build the pressure up before it'll start. Many mechanics told me this is a defect. Kat friday night I ran an errand. Pulled in the driveway exited the vehicle hit the key fob to lock the vehicle. I go out the next morning and I can smell burnt wires. The window/power locks/mirrors module on drivers side door caught on fire. Luckily it shorted out the module, but it burnt up and melted one of the connectors. This just happened so I have not had time to figure the cause. Burns 2 quarts of oil between oil changes. General motors threw me under the bus in 1988 on a brand new pick up truck with the dexcool antifreeze that ate every gasket out of the engine and they refused to replace it I replaced it at my cost with no help from general motors. Enough is enough these people need to take care of all these problems they got top dollar for these vehicles. All of these occurred when the vehicle was sitting still. The door handle on passenger side door have cut several people. It's like a razor. A brand new vehicle has had a piece of tape wrapped around the door handle how embarrassing.

Air bag recalls, around my airbags the dashboard is cracked. My check engine light is always on because of the gas cap. So that makes my automatic start not work. Very disappointed. Would love to give my son a truck I worked so hard to pay for... But the airbags being recalled and dealership not having airbags to replace is very unfortunate for the safety of myself, my children, and my family. I wish gm would make it right!

The problem is stated in technical service bulletin pip4568s & #10-06-01-008m that gm sent out regarding afn lifters failing due to oil starvation. Gm knows about this problem and sent out the information on how to diagnose it and fix it. However this is a known problem in the 5.3l engines and a very expensive problem! In my situation it caused a soak plug and the spark plug housing to blow completely out of the engine! Which could have injured someone or caused damage to something if it had gotten out of the engine compartment. I was on a major highway going 50 MPH with high traffic. As stated this is a known problem and gm won't even cover any portion of the cost to fix it! In my case I only owned the vehicle for 4 months and had this happen. I am now paying for a vehicle that I can barely drive and shouldnt be driving! At any moment the whole engine could blow up but I have no choice but to drive it until I have the $4000 to fix it! Gm should have to cover repairs or at least a portion of the cost of repairs! I have seen numerous complaints on the web regarding this problem from other owners of the vehicles effected by pip4568s & #10-06-01-008m. Yet gm will not help consumers in any way at all with the expensive cost of this repair! With the amount of complaints I have seen it should be a recall! There could be other safety issues that other owners could have had also. This known problem also effects other functions of the vehicle such as stabilitak system. When this system is malfunctioning the vehicle hits bumps and throws the vehicle off the road making steering the vehicle very hard to control. This an accident could occur.

The top of the fuel pump rusts out. The fuel tank has a design flaw that holds water around the fuel pump. The fuel pump and fuel lines on top of the tank rust out and causes gas and fumes to escape the tank. Fuel will spray onto exhaust and under the vehicle causing a fire hazard. Also excessive fuel vapors escape the tank. I have researched the problem online and there are numerous complaints to gm of the problem but gm has not addressed the problem. I am not looking for any monetary gain I simply want gm to address the problem before someone is killed. Some people reported the problem before 100,000 miles and nearly all problems occur before 150,000.
