The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that the vehicle was pulling to the right and the sensor light was illuminated while purchasing the vehicle. The contact stated that the failures were temporary. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle pulled to the right and the rear end of the vehicle felt as though the rear was dragging. The contact stated that there was a metal dragging sound coming from underneath the vehicle. The contact pulled over and inspected the vehicle but found no visible failures. The contact stated that the tpms warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that smoke was coming from the passenger’s side front wheel. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic who diagnosed that the brake caliper had seized, and the brake line had collapsed. The contact was informed that the caliper and three sensors on the wheels needed to be replaced. Additionally, there was also a leak in the oil line. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer was contacted and confirmed that the repair was not covered under warranty. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown. The VIN was not available.
The tires have large cracks forming in the sidewalls. The cracks are deep and it appears may rupture at any moment. The cracks are wide enough to easily put 2 pennies in nd cover the top of Lincoln's head. Noticed this has happening last year, but just noticed how bad it has become.
When we first bought the vehicle we received the error message: antilockbrakes & stabiltrac problems & wheel vibrated terribly. Took it in, they said it was the computer and fixed it. This morning error antil lock brake problem and no brake fluid (put in a whole can) and error traction off (but we did not turn it off) this is a new vehicle and we could get killed or kill another if there is a brake failure. This should be a recall and gm should buy back the vehicle from us. Thank you for any help you can give us.
I just filed complaint #11074137 and when I copied and pasted the VIN number it left the last 5 off. VIN is 1gcrcsec6hz125105. Sorry for mixup.
Vibration in the rest end. Had tires rotated and still a vibration. Complained to general motors only to be told that it is within their specs. They know there is an issue with the 2015-2017 silverados and nothing being done. Makes it uncomfortable to drive on long trips is at all speeds while driving and negotiating bends in the highway. Noticed when I purchase and drove off the lot purchased in November 2017 continued.
