THE DAY AFTER I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK, WHILE STARTING TO BACK OUT OF A PARKING SPACE AT MY MECHANIC'S SHOP, MY FOOT WENT TO THE FLOOR. I STOPPED, GOT OUT AND FOUND A LARGE PUDDLE OF BRAKE FLUID ON THE GROUND. THEY TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE SHOP AND FOUND ALL OF THE BRAKE LINES WERE BADLY RUSTED AND 1 HAD COMPLETELY FAILED. DURING THE REPLACEMENT PROCESS THEY ALSO FOUND THE FUEL LINE WAS RUSTED SO I HAD IT REPLACED AS WELL. SHORTLY AFTER THAT, THE SERVICE AIRBAG WARNING STARTED COMING ON WHEN DRIVING THE TRUCK. TRANSPORT CANADA HAS A RECALL FOR THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM AS FOLLOWS FROM THEIR WEB SITE: TRANSPORT CANADA RECALL # 2014510 RECALL DATE2014/11/07 NOTIFICATION TYPESAFETY TC SYSTEMAIRBAG MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER19270B CATEGORYLIGHT TRUCK & VAN RECALL DETAILS ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, THE SENSING AND DIAGNOSTIC MODULE (SDM) MAY CORRODE DUE TO A SIGNIFICANT QUANTITY OF SNOW AND/OR WATER CONTAINING ROAD SALT OR OTHER CONTAMINANTS ENTERING THE VEHICLE AND SATURATING THE ACOUSTICAL PADDING BENEATH THE FLOOR CARPET.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION--1QT EVERY 900 TO 1000 MILES. *TR

SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, LOOKED IN OWNERS MANUAL AND IT ADVISED TO GET IT SERVICED. I CALLED THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALER WHO ADVISED ME JUST TO DRIVE IT, "THAT'S COMMON" I WAS TOLD. FAR CRY FROM THE HAZARDS THE BOOK EXPLAINS. IS THERE A RECALL ON THE 2007? NOT IMPRESSED! *TR

I APPLIED THE BRAKES OF MY 07" CHEVY SILVERADO CLASSIC IN A PARKING LOT, THE TRUCK STOPPED AND THEN THE BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. GOT THE TRUCK HOME, AND SOON FOUND A POOL OF BRAKE FLUID ON THE GROUND UNDER THE LEFT REAR WHEEL. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH ALMOST NO STOPPING POWER. DIAGNOSIS - BRAKE LINE FAILURE. THE BRAKE LINES HAD DETERIORATED AND HAVE BEGUN FALLING APART. THE SOLUTION - A $2,400 BRAKE LINE REPLACEMENT JOB (ACTUAL PART COST $100). THE JOB IS APPARENTLY EXTREMELY LABOR INTENSIVE. IS GM DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS? MY TRUCK IS 7 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THE MAJOR BRAKING SYSTEM FAILURE PROBLEM THAT I AM EXPERIENCING. *TR

WHILE BACKING INTO MY DRIVEWAY I LOST ALL OF MY BRAKES.THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR.I USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND PUT THE TRUCK INTO DRIVE.I MANAGED TO STOP THE TRUCK BEFORE ANY DAMAGE OCCURRED,MY DRIVE WAY IS STEEP AND I WAS LUCKY I WAS GOING SLOW IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE.I FOUND THE BRAKE LINES HAD BEEN CORRODED AND BURST.THE LINES RUPTURED UNDER THE DRIVERS SIDE.I READ THAT GM SAID IT WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE AND YOU STILL WOULD HAVE SOME BRAKES.HOW ON EARTH WOULD YOU HAVE BRAKES WHEN THE LINES RUSTED THROUGH.A 2007 TRUCK .I READ THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR OVER 12 YEARS WITH GM PICK UPS.CHECK YOUR BRAKE LINES-ITS LIFE OR DEATH. *TR

THE MANIFOLD BOLTS HAVE BROKEN OFF INTO THE HEAD OF THE ENGINE. RESULTING IN FAILURE OF SEAL TO HEAD FROM THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. IN TURN, HAS CAUSED THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER TO FAIL AND NOW THE VEHICLE REQUIRES EXTENSIVE WORK TO PASS EMISSIONS TESTING IN CALIFORNIA. IT ONLY TAKES ONE BOLT TO BREAK ON THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD TO CAUSE THIS ISSUE. THE BOLTS ARE OBVIOUSLY THE WEAK LINK. THE ENGINEERING DESIGN NEEDS TO BE MODIFIED IMMEDIATELY. IT IS NOT LISTED AS A MAINTENANCE ITEM IN ANY GM OWNERS MANUAL. WHY SHOULD THE CONSUMER BE RESPONSIBLE FOR AN ITEM THAT CAUSES CATASTROPHIC FAILURE TO THE EMISSION SYSTEM, WHICH IS A MANDATED AND GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND FEE'D ACCORDINGLY VIA STATE AND COUNTY GUIDELINES. *TR

IT HAS NOT HAPPENED YET BUT ALL BRAKE LINES UNDER TRUCK ARE CORRODED REAL BAD.I AM WORRIED THAT I WILL LOOSE BRAKES AT ANYTIME.I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE STEERING BOX AND POWER STEERING PUMP BECAUSE OF RUST.I ONLY HAVE 48000 MILES ON TRUCK,WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? *TR

AIRBAG IMPACT SENSOR, FRONT GM OE 15297468 CRACKS, CORRODES, AND STOPS WORKING. POORLY DESIGNED AND A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE IF IN AN ACCIDENT. NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. *TR

THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE SPOTS AND HAS STARTED TO CRACK AND FALL INTO THE MECHANICAL COMPONENTS UNDERNEATH. HAS 6 OR MORE CRACKS APPROXIMATELY 6-12 INCHES. IT STARTED WITH ONE CRACK AND HAS CONTINUE TO HAVE MORE, HAPPENS WHILE PARKED AND DRIVING.

AIR BAG LIGHT WILL NOT GO OUT AND SAYS AIRBAG FOR DRIVER NEEDS SERVICE. *TR

I HAVE TRIED TO GET THE AIRBAGS REPLACED ON MY 2007 SILVERADO FOR YEARS. EVER SINCE THE RECALL I GO IN PERIODICALLY TO SEE IF THEY CAN BE REPLACED AND ALWAYS GET THE SAME ANSWER. NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. THEY HAVE WARNED ME THAT DRIVING IT WAS DANGEROUS AND I SHOULD PARK IT UNTIL FIXED. I BOUGHT IT TO DRIVE AND CAN NOT PARK IT BUT WORRY THAT IT IS REALLY NOT SAFE. I WOULD HAVE HAD IT PARKED FOR YEARS AT THIS POINT AND THEY OFFER NO LOANER TILL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. NOW I SEE THERE ARE THOUSANDS MORE RECALLED. WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO IF NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE FOR ALL THESE YEARS?

SELECTED ADAPTIVE EQUIPMENT AND SUSPENSION AND BODY BECAUSE THERE IS NO PLACE TO ADD TAILGATE AND THAT IS WHERE HE PROBLEM IS - GEEZ - THAT PART MAKES NO SENESE AT ALL. *TR TAILGATE LOCK ON RIDERS SIDE OF VEHICLE DOES NOT ENGAGE PROPERLY. IT HAS BEEN REPLACED ONCE AND GREASED ONCE AT BUTCH OSTELETE IN PASCAGOULA, MS. I CALLED ABOUT REPAIR BUT THE PERSON ON THE PHONE SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO CHARGE ME TO REPAIR IT. THE PROBLEM IS YOU HAVE TO STICK YOUR FINGER IN THE LOCK PIN AND SLIDE IT UPWARD TO MAKE IT ENGAGE WHEN THE TAILGATE IS CLOSED. THIS HAS BEEN ON GOING SINCE I HAVE ON THE VEHICLE. IT IS A DEFECT THAT COULD CAUSE SOMEONE (LIKE ME) TO INJURE THEIR FINGER IN THE LOCK OR JOLT A PERSONS WRIST AND ELBOWS (LIKE ME) AND CAUSE HARM. THIS DEFECT NEEDS TO BE CALLED TO GM ATTENTION AND HAVE THESE ISSUES REPAIRED.

PLASTIC DASH HAS CRACKED NEAR AIR BAG. COULD LEAD TO SHARP PLASTIC PIECES FROM DASH BEING SENT INTO PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WHEN AIR BAG DEPLOYS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS DOOR LOCKS WILL CYCLE ON AND OFF, EXTERIOR LIGHTS AND DASH DISPLAY WILL GO OFF, WIPERS WILL FREEZE, ALL GAUGES WILL GO ZERO AND TWO OR THREE WARNING LIGHTS WILL COME ON SUCH AS STABILITRAK, ABS BRAKES OR SERVICE AIR BAGS. LIGHTS ETC WILL GO OFF FOR 5 SECONDS WHICH IS DANGEROUS. I TOOK IT TO STEWART CHEVROLET IN COLMA ON 2/3/14, THEY WERE ABLE TO DUPLICATE PROBLEM ON ROAD TESTS BUT WERE UNABLE TO GUARANTEE A FIX IF THEY REPLACED THE BODY CONTROL MODULE OR APPLIED TSB 08-07-30-0216 DOC ID# 2776388. HOW DO I GET THIS SAFETY ISSUE ADDRESSED? *TR

LATCH FAILED WOULD NOT LATCH. IF I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT I COULD HAVE INJURED .I WOULD THINK THE SEAT BELTS WOULD LAST LONGER THAN 5 YEARS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK, CERTAIN ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. THE COMPONENTS CONSISTS OF THE RADIO, ALL DASH GAUGES, ETC. IN ADDITION, SEVERAL DIFFERENT SERVICE WARNINGS WILL START FLASHING INCLUDING WHICH WILL INCLUDE "SERVICE AIR BAG", "SERVICE TIRE MONITOR, "SERVICE ENGINE", ETC. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE, ONCE AT 150,000 MILES AND JUST TODAY AT 153,000. *TR
