2 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 09/05/2018

The truck dies at any moment. Stability track system warning pops up in the little screen and the steering wheel is blocked when this happen. After these to things happens the truck shut down. Sometimes, after a few minutes the truck comes back to normal. This has happened to me for like 10 times in a period of like 15 months. I have taken to the dealer like 6 times and they haven't found the problem. They have change some wires from the battery. They have reprogram the software and nothing I still have the same problem. The truck dies at any moment. All of this happen when I am driving the truck most of the times at low speed and while turning to the left or right except like two times that occurred while I was driving in the highway. The mechanics in the dealer have done all kind of diagnostic that they have but they could not duplicated the problem so the answer that I get every time is that every is fine and that they couldn't duplicated the problem.

3 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 08/07/2018

I started my truck and noticed a heavy smell of gasoline coming from the hvac vents. I stepped out of the vehicle and noticed a large puddle of (fuel) gasoline on the pavement and a constant drip of (fuel) gasoline coming from the rear of the motor. I proceeded to turn the vehicle off and contact my local gm dealer for assistance.

4 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 10/13/2014

#5 cylinder rocker arm broke took to a dealership in michigan to get repaired. Problems with engine running, before all this happened I was getting 20/22 mpg on the highway which is what I travel mostly, now since this happen I only getting 16/18 mpg on the highway. My dealership in milwaukee worked with an engineer from gm and they claim everything up to spec and won't do anymore on the vehicle but yet something has happened that I have lost about 4/6 mpg highway or $20 per tank which with my traveling is a lot of money $400 month. I am very dissatisfied with gm and this vehicle right now when you pay $50,000 + for a vehicle you don't expect to have problems within the first month of purchase (brand new) and then for gm not to find out why the drop in mileage is unacceptable.

5 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2014

Vehicle was purchased new from a dealership. The vehicle is modified and sold commercially under the rmt (rocky mountain truck works) package. The package includes modified suspension and lighting. When accelerating, the transmission fails to shift into a passing gear causing the rpm(s) to exceed 6000 at which point the rev limiter shuts down power to the vehicle until the rpm(s) are back in a safe operating limit. The first time this happened, I was attempting to pass a vehicle on a secondary two lane highway. When I was in the passing lane, I accelerated to overtake the vehicle but the rpm limiter shut down power midway through the passing. With oncoming traffic, and loss of power, it made for a very serious situation. I have contacted the dealership and they have worked on the vehicle multiple times to try and correct without success. They have confirmed that this happening with all the rmt modified vehicles that they have test driven. These vehicles are commercially marketed and it is only a matter of time before someone is not as ¿¿lucky¿� as I was.

7 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 03/14/2014

The vehicle had been parked for over three hours at which time it was engulfed in flames. The entire engine compartment consumed by fire. We had taken the vehicle 2 weeks earlier to a dealer to have the recall component replaced but it appears that the problem was not corrected and now we have a vehicle which was only 4 months old as a piece of worthless pile of metal. Gm has been slow to react to this issue and has requested that we first have our insurance company look at the vehicle vs. Seem send them one to look at the this.
