2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy after the purchase. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of the purchase, the mileage was 107,015. It was later discovered upon registering the vehicle at a local DMV agency that the mileage was 233,000.

A lifter failed and caused an injector to fail and a push rod to bend. The truck has misfires on two cylinders now. The AFM system is a large issue known for 2014 and newer 1500 trucks as mine is a 2015. The truck is in need of a motor rebuild or replacement and the dealer I took the truck to for the work quoted me over $9000 for the work to be completed. The engine has less then 125,000 miles on it.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The factory paint coat/paint adhesion system (Exterior Summit White Finish) failed, resulting in early-stage delamination and separation of the topcoat directly from the electro-coat primer. The vehicle and affected body panels are intact, unaltered, and available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? (early-stage delamination and separation) Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes. On XXX, I visited my local dealership in [XXX] and spoke directly with Service Manager Mr. Gerome. He inspected the issue and informed me that dealership-level assistance could not be applied because the vehicle is over 7 years old, advising me to contact GM Customer Assistance directly for a corporate goodwill review GM Customer Care evaluated photos: The issue was reviewed directly through GM Customer Care and Senior Executive Liaison Roman via photographs, but GM refused to acknowledge the factory paint adhesion defect or offer a remedy. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Yes, the defect was formally submitted for review to General Motors Customer Care and Senior Executive Liaison Roman. No police or insurance inspections have occurred, as there has been no collision or external impact causing this failure. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning lamps or digital messages occurred, as this is a physical surface material failure. The issue began as subtle surface lifting and small paint flakes detaching without any prior stone chips or scratches. The issue first appeared on [XXX].

Rear window defrost caught fire. No noticeable damage to vehicle. On my twenty fifteen chevy silverado. Smoke filled the cab of the vehicle. There were no warning or messages to alert to this happening. I reported the dangerous incident to a dealer who told me to contact corporate. He said this is an issue but it was called a customer satisfaction program N192265660 rear window thermal event which yes it was my year but the safety issue which I was never aware of expired. He then told me to report it to NHSTA.gov. This is very dangerous and certainly should be a recall to befixed. Luckily I had started the vehicle in my driveway and was getting into it when it happened. It could have happened while I was driving.That was a known dangerous issue this should still be fixed without an expiration date. It is still dangerous.

At 124,000, the transmission started slipping and not grabbing gears. Coleman Taylor Transmissions ended up having to do a full rebuild which costs about $4000. At around 20,000 miles, the vehicle started to shutter going 45 mph. The vehicle still does shake violently at 62-75 mph causing a safety concern. The brakes wont go if Ive been standing still for a long time like in a drive through or backing down a boat ramp. You have to stand on the brakes with both feet to get the vehicle to stop and thats only going 5 mph. We still own this vehicle and still have issues with it.

Vehicle: 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 (VIN: [XXX]). The factory Summit White paint and clearcoat are delaminating from the primer in large sheets along the roofline directly above the windshield header. This factory paint-bonding failure exposes raw primer and bare metal, compromising the structural roof seal around the windshield. Left unaddressed, it creates water intrusion and structural rust risks near the windshield header, posing a safety and visibility hazard. GM has denied goodwill assistance despite this being a known manufacturing defect. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the "Service Power Steering Drive" message was displayed and the steering wheel became extremely difficult to maneuver. The contact attempted to drive onto the main street; however, had to drive slowly with the hazard lights activated, before returning to the residence. The contact researched and became aware of an unknown recall; however, the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed and associated the failure with an electric pump. The failure mileage was approximately 106,799.

I am filing this complaint regarding a serious engine lifter/Active Fuel Management (AFM) failure in my 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The vehicle experienced a lifter failure that caused significant engine problems and created a potential safety concern while driving back from shopping: loss of power, engine misfire, severe shaking, ticking, check-engine light, stalling, inability to maintain speed, etc. The vehicle had approximately 200k miles at the time of the failure. The vehicle was inspected by a local mechanic, which diagnosed the problem as collapsed/failed lifter. The repair required/will cost approx. 3k or more estimated My concern is that this does not appear to be an isolated failure. Other owners of 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 trucks equipped with GM's Active Fuel Management system have reported lifter failures, including failures resulting in engine damage and sudden loss of engine power or propulsion. A sudden lifter or related engine failure can create a significant safety hazard, particularly when it occurs at highway speeds, while merging into traffic, crossing an intersection, or in another situation where the driver depends upon the engine to maintain acceleration and vehicle speed. I am reporting this in hopes that GM can be held accountable as they knew about these defective lifters but did nothing but hide it.
