• Recall 2021028 [Canada]: Airbag
  Issue: on certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, may eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger-front airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. If the airbag inflator ruptures, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag assembly, preventing its proper function. Safety risk: if the vehicle is involved in a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the airbag inflator could rupture and create a risk of injury. Corrective action: general motors will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the passenger-front airbag. Note: the canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. This recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk. It is expected that all airbag inflators will be replaced before their function would be affected.

• Recall 2015002 [Canada]: Electrical
  On certain vehicles, a defect in the ignition lock cylinder could cause the key to stick in the "start" position if the vehicle interior temperature is sufficiently high. If the vehicle is operated in this condition and the interior temperature cools or the vehicle goes off-road or is subjected to some other jarring event, the key could move out of the "start" position, rotate past the "run" position and into the "accessory" position. If this were to occur, engine power, power steering and power braking would be affected, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. The timing of the key movement out of the “run” position, relative to the activation of the sensing algorithm of the crash event, may also result in the airbags not deploying in a subsequent collision, increasing the risk of injury. Correction: dealers will inspect the steering column for identifying information and replace if necessary.

• Recall 2014277 [Canada]: Electrical
  On certain vehicles equipped with an optional dual batteries, the owner's manual does not specify a maximum amperage rating for the auxiliary battery to the trailer wiring harness. If the circuit is overloaded, a fusible link may fail and could damage adjacent components, potentially resulting in a fire and increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will install an 40 amp inline fuse and provide an owner's manual supplement containing maximum amp rating information. Note: owners are advised not to use equipment that exceeds a 40 amp draw on the auxiliary battery trailer wiring.

• Recall 2011240 [Canada]: Steering
  On certain vehicles, the intermediate steering shaft attaching bolts may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. This could allow the joint to separate, resulting in a loss of steering capability. A loss of steering control could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will tighten the intermediate steering shaft bolts to specifications.

• Recall 2010454 [Canada]: Suspension
  On certain vehicles, the rear axle cross pin was improperly heat treated (during the manufacturing process) and could fracture and become displaced within the rear differential. As a result the driver may hear a banging noise emanating from the rear axle. Also, if the pin shifts out of position it could create an interference and cause the rear axle to lock. This could cause a loss of vehicle control, which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the rear axle cross pin.

The dashboard is broken at the upper left corner of the air bag housing on the passenger side.

The dashboard cracked on the passenger side of vehicle near the top left corner of the passenger side air bag. Dealership would fix the issue but only at full cost to me, even though i expressed the concern i have how if the airbag were to deploy the sharp edges of the cracked area may not allow the air bag to work properly. I.E. Could puncture the airbag. Also shards of the dashboard could cause harm if airbag were to deploy

Dash is cracking around airbag and instrument panel causing serious concern about projectiles if airbag were to deploy.

The truck had less than 50,000 miles when we noticed a crack in the dash running from the upper left corner of the air bag cover and the defroster vent. I know several other trucks with this same issue. It appears to be a design flaw. I went to the local dealer and he estimated it would take nearly $1,000 to fix. I wonder if this crack would be negatively influenced if the air bag ever inflates causing more damage or injury.

We have had a recurring issue with the traction control feature on this vehicle since buying it. Randomly and out of nowhere it will show stabilitrak off on the instrument panel. The engine becomes sluggish when this happens. This, to me, is a safety hazard when driving. There is also an issue with the ignition getting stuck when starting where it grinds the starter. I have to turn the truck off and start it again to get it to stop. I have had the vehicle at the dealer where it was purchased and they have no clue what to do about the stabilitrak issue. I have read many complaints on this and there should be a recall.

Tl* the contact owns a 2011 chevrolet silverado. The contact stated that while parked, it was noticed that there was a fracture on the front passenger side window above the air bag area. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who, diagnosed that the trim needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 55,000.

Started hearing noise from dash on highway upon further inspection notice cracks on dashboard on passenger side around air bag

I have a 2011 chevrolet silverado 1500 that has approximately 44,000 miles on it and is garage kept. I have several cracks around my passenger side airbag which could pose a safety issue even though gm said the cracks will not.

I was driving on njtp my daughter was following behind me and calls me (handsfree) saying my brake lights are on .
