2017 GMC Sierra Complaint Log

THE STABILITRAK SENSOR KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF. I'VE HAD THIS ISSUE WHEN I FIRST GOT THE TRUCK IN THE END OF OCTOBER IN 2017. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIX IT AT FIRST BUT FINALLY HAD TO FIX SOME WIRING. I'VE SEEN IT GO ON A FEW TIMES SINCE THEN BUT NEVER STAYED ON. AND FOR ABOUT 2-3 WEEKS IT'S BEEN COMING ON AND OFF BUT STAYING MORE ON AND NOT GOING AWAY NOW. I FEEL LIKE THIS SHOULDN'T HAPPEN TO A NEWER TRUCK

MY 2017 GMC SIERRA SHUTTERS AND JERKS WHEN GOING INTO AND OUT OF 1ST GEAR AND GOING AROUND CORNERS WHEN IT CHANGES GEARS. ESPECIALLY WHEN COLD. DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME. AT TIMES IT HAS JERKED INTO AN INTERSECTIONAND WAS SCRY. MY WIFE WILL NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEY HAVE CHANGED THE FLUID. THEY TELL ME I HAVE A QUIRKY TRANS OR IT IS INHERENT TO THIS TRANSMISSION. IT IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING AND SCARY AT TIMES. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO TO GET GM TO FIX IT. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE I PURCHASED THE TRUCK ON 10/31/2017.

TRANSMISSION HAS SURGING AND HESITATION. DEALER CANNOT FIX.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY NEW GMC SIERRA 2500HD DENALI ARE HORRIBLE AND UNSAFE FOR DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE 25 WATT RATING AND 2,000 LUMENS ON THE OEM HID BULBS DO NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE, SAFE LIGHTING FOR OPERATING MY VEHICLE. I ALREADY HIT A DEER WITH MY BRAND NEW TRUCK BECAUSE I COULDN'T SEE IT WELL ENOUGH IN ADVANCE OF THE COLLISION. GMC SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR PUTTING SUCH A LOW POWER, POOR QUALITY AND UNSAFE HEADLIGHT IN THEIR $70,000 VEHICLES. I'M RENTING A HYUNDAI WHILE MY TRUCK IS BEING REPAIRED AND THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS $30,000 FOREIGN CAR ARE 10XS BETTER THAN THE ONES ON MY TRUCK. WHY?

I HAVE A 2017 GMC SIERRA DENALI 1500. I BOUGHT IT NEW AND IT HAS VERY, VERY LOW MILEAGE. AT VARIOUS SPEEDS THERE IS A VIBRATION. FEELS LIKE I AM DRIVING OVER RUMBLE STRIPS. I HAVE ALWAYS NOTICED IT BUT MOSTLY THOUGHT IT WAS JUST SPOTS ON THE ROAD THAT WERE CAUSING IT. I STARTED TO DO A LITTLE RESEARCH AND LEARNED THAT THIS IS A KNOW ISSUE IN CHEVROLET AND GMC TRUCKS. NUMEROUS STORIES OF DEALERS IGNORING IT, COMPLAINTS ON MANY FORUMS, WHOLE WEBSITE DEDICATED TO IT, A NUMBER OF CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS, AND REPORTS TO THE NHTSA. LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF OWNERS ARE INVOLVED. GM HAS ISSUED A PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATION SERVICE BULLETIN (BULLETIN NO.: PI1354I), BUT DEALERS WANT TO CHARGE FOR DIAGNOSING AND POSSIBLY REPAIRING THIS MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT.
