Recall Date: Sep 8, 2016
Safety Issue:

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015-2017 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD, 3500 HD, Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Sierra 2500 HD and 3500 HD, GMC Yukon, GMC Yukon XL, Cadillac Escalade and Cadillac Escalade ESV vehicles and 2014-2017 Chevrolet Corvette, Silverado 1500, Trax, Caprice Police Pursuit Vehicle, GMC Sierra 1500, Buick Encore, and 2014-2016 Buick Lacrosse, Chevrolet Spark EV and SS vehicles. In the affected vehicles, certain driving conditions may cause the air bag sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) software to activate a diagnostic test. During this test, deployment of the frontal air bags and the seat belt pretensioners would not occur in the event of a crash.

Potential Risk:
A failure of the front air bags or seat belt pretensioners to deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver and front passenger.
FREE Recall Solution:
GM will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the SDM software. Vehicles that have had a previous air bag deployment will have the SDM replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on October 13, 2016.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

My Check engine light came on at about 46,000 miles. The mechanic showed me that the oil was burned at looked like chips of metal. He said that the Turbo Charger was cracked also. He replaced everything and flushed the system clean. He video taped the whole repair process. Now, 8,000 miles later, the Check Engine light is back on and the very same problem has repeated itself. I looked on the internet and found HUNDREDS of Blogs with THOUSANDS of Consumers with the same problem. All of them state that the Turbo Charger cracks, leaks into the coolant, over-heats the engine and burns up the oil. They all state that the repair is about $3,000.00. Some are on their 3rd and 4th go-around with this problem. They state that Chevrolet does NOT respond. I, personally, contacted the dealership that sold me my care and reported the problem. I was told that mine was an isolated incident and then they tried to sell me another car. Here is ONLY ONE BLOG with all the consumers' complaints about this ONE MATTER: [XXX] I paid around $35,000.00 for this car at the time of purchase. I paid it off early. You can tell by the low mileage that I do not drive my automobile hard. I keep it well maintained. At 50,000 miles, it cannot be driven until I invest another $3,000.00 in repairs....that I just paid 8,000 miles ago for the the same repeating problem. I need Chevrolet to do one of three things: 1) Resolve the ROOT problem that keeps causing this ongoing problem and fix my car PERMANENTLY of this problem at NO CHARGE; 2) Give me a different model car that has 50,000 miles as an exchange; 3) Refund 2/3 of my money so that I can get a different vehicle. They have left me with no automobile to drive. They act like I am too stupid to understand that the problem lies with them (probably because I am female). They try to convince me to spend yet another 35,000 to 40,000 dollars on a different new car. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

SUSPENSION

Potential Consequences:

I purchased this 2017 Chevrolet Trax in Dec 2020 with 36748 miles on it. In I believe 2022 I had to have the front driver side tire rode replaced as it was broken at just a little over 50,000 miles on it. Now at 73,027 miles I had to have both sway bars links replaced as they both were broken as well. Upon further inspection from dealership the also found the left front suspension strut needs replacing. I heard noises from front end when turning with popping and creaking as turning. Now after replacing sway bars I have more popping and creaking coming from front end but not just when turning now it's most of the time now and the steering is pulling at different times. It does not feel safe to drive this vehicle anymore. No light came on dash to warn of any issues at all. I have paid for most repairs on the vehicle, but these Costs are adding up more and more.
