- Multiple system failure. Truck presented with oil or ATF leaking from the transmission bell housing and transmission inspection port cover. First detected by me at 30k mile oil change. Prior to this, my wife and I both complained that the truck was very slow to get into gear from a stop, especially while towing. Engine would rev and then finally dump power, spinning the rear tires. Additionally encountered hunting for gears on the highway. - Second failure. 24 AUG. Truck illuminated with Check engine light, Traction control light, forward collision light, service ECS, service trailer brake control, and ABS light. - Inconsistent power application and loss of safety features makes the truck…

During cold weather, temperatures below freezing, both sideview mirrors open fully extended contacting the fenders, sometimes open partially, sometimes open 3/4 of the way. Cycling the mirrors closed then open condition repeats. Each mirror responds independently from the other. This resulted in dents on each fender from the mirrors when they open fully. The doors cannot be opened without further damaging the fenders and or the mirrors. Once the temperature rises above freezing, the mirrors return to normal function. The truck is available for inspection upon request. Safety concern and risk exists without function and use of sideview mirrors. Cannot see down both sides of vehicle behind…

While driving at a speed of around 40 mph on a paved city street in Bozeman, MT, I heard and felt a Super loud clunk in my Chevy engine transmission or drive train.. I immediately stopped to see if something ran into the vehicle. No apparent visual damage of any kind. It felt and sounded like like something jammed within the transmission or drive train. The truck has less than 12k miles and has been babied so far. I love the truck. Oil level is normal and nothing leaking underneath..I took it immediately to Billion GMC in Bozeman. They found nothing wrong however the service manager recounted this regarding another customer who described the exact same issue with the same year vehicle and…

While launching a boat. Truck was in park and boat off the trailer. I was out of truck 30' on the dock reaching for boat rope ( was a single person boat launch). I heard a loud pop and the truck went into the lake till it hit the dock. Several witnesses to this story. Glad I didn't have to go behind the truck to undo my boat winch. I would have been killed.

Safety Issue. The raised cruise control speed set button on the steering wheel is prone to being touched when rotating the steering wheel while making sharp turns when driving through parking lots at low speed. If the distance cruise was previously set at say 45 mph the last time it was used, and the set button is very briefly hit upward when rotating the wheel through your hands to the left, it can inadvertently cause the truck to start accelerating to that previously-set speed. The cruise button needs to be programmed such that at certain steering angles it will not respond to inputs. This is very dangerous. I ave had this happen to me at least 5 times. Hitting the brakes stopped the…
