general problems of the 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 - part 2

I am recieving stabilatrac , abs, powersteering, errors. My wipers will only work if I hit my brakes. The cruise control doesn't work anymore.

Intermittent stalling, ( complete shut down at freeway speeds). No engine, no power steering or brakes, windows will not operate, no emergency flashers, no dash re-out, will not turn over. Happens at any time while in motion. Has placed myself, my wife & other drivers in danger numerous times.

Truck has 73,000 miles on it. While driving at approximately 20 mph I applied the brake and had the stabili track warning go off, as well as radio and fan shit off. As I was making a slight left turn the steering wheel jerked out of my hand and locked up, leaving me with absolutely no control of the vehicle in the middle of traffic. The steering wheel would release , jerk and lock repeatedly, it happened about 4 times while trying to regain control. At the same time while applying the brake I had virtually no brakes to stop the vehicle. Looked for recalls and all I found were hundreds of similar complaints, but no solution or recalls. How is this not a recall, it's gross negligence. . . What if I was at highway speeds or towing my trailer at the time. Gm and NHTSA need to address this issue immediately before lives are lost. As for me, I'm in the process of getting rid of a vehicle that I've had for 3 months because of this and will not let my children ride in the vehicle. It's an intermittent problem, I'm just hoping the next time it doesn't happen at 65mph.

Tl the contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. While driving 70 mph, the vehicle stalled and the stabilitrak warning indicator illuminated. In addition, the steering wheel and brakes seized. The contact powered off the engine while in traffic. The vehicle was restarted and drove normally. The contact stated that the failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was taken to covert Buick GMC (located at 11750 research blvd, austin, TX 78759, (512) 583-3411) where diagnostic testing was completed, but no failure code was found. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 103,000.

When I am driving at low speeds and I turn my steering wheel my wheel locks up and I am unable to turn by vehicle. When I am driving on the highway my display system goes in and out.

On or about 4 April, 2017 I experienced an alarm while driving my 2014 GMC sierra. While traveling between conroe TX and plano TX, I received a warning steering stability. The alarm cleared so I checked my owners manual and it said to take it to a dealer if it didn't clear. I used onstar and had a diagnosis done on the truck. They reported no problems. The next day the truck shut down, in the middle of making a u turn. My daughter thought she had knocked it out of gear but couldn't get it to start until she turned it off and back on. The same thing happened again (this time to my wife) turning into a parking lot. She took it to a GMC dealer to have it checked out. They found a broken gear in the electronic power assist assembly. We heard that our vehicle had a recall # 17276, for problem with the steering. I then took it to the dealer where I bought the truck and had the computer updated to prevent the problem. I then ask for a reimbursement for having to have the steering module and negative battery cable replaced. I contend that, at the time, the cause of the steering problem causing the truck to die. When I ask a technician at mckinney if the recall was for the problem, he said: no that is just to change an error in the computer. Back in April, the only thing they could do to possibly prevent the stalling was to look for something like a power problem. Before I took the truck in I had no indication of power problems and I was never told how the negative battery cable went bad, only that it happens and the truck was out of the 36 mo warranty. I checked on the internet to see if anyone else was having the problem and what the solution to it was? I saw several people were having the problem, but nobody knew what exactly caused it.

When driving recently, my check engine light started flashing along with my stabilitrak light coming on. The vehicle started vibrating. The vibrating was especially rough while idle. The vibration was also rough while in lower gears and while braking. When brought in for service I was told it was a corroded ignition coil. This is the second time this has happened. I bought the vehicle new and it currently has about 37,000 miles on it.

Driving at low speeds in rush hour traffic and "degraded steering" warning with chime sounded. Cleared itself and then chimed again with same warning about three minutes later. This was followed by stabilitrack warning and red brake warning. Steering was somewhat harder to turn but was still being assisted. There didn't appear to be any degradation to braking. Maybe the anti-lock system? the a/c then turned off and the radio volume went silent. The stabilitrack switch, a/c controls and radio controls were all ineffective. I noticed the amp gauge was below 12 as it seemed as if the truck electrical system was underpowered. I drove ten miles home and all systems reset by turning truck off and starting it up again. This is first time this has happened. Truck has 66k miles on it.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. While driving approximately 45 mph, the steering wheel locked and the stabilitrack warning indicator illuminated. The contact had to stop in the middle of the road. The vehicle was turned off and restarted normally. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was unknown. The approximate failure mileage was 40,000.

Written by my wife on 11/04/ on 11/02/16 at approximately 2:45 pm I was driving slowly through a parking lot trying to find a space. I found a space and as I turned my wheel to the left it locked up roughly, jerking the steering wheel out of my hands as I pulled into the spot. After the steering wheel locked up, jerking very abruptly, the power surged and the truck died. This is probably the 30th time this has happened to me. This particular time there was no error message displayed this time. Usually I get a message which pops up on the instrument cluster forward of the steering wheel that says ¿service stabiltrac¿ or ¿action required, steering assist is reduced, drive with care. ¿ it seems there is a steering malfunction because this issue usually occurs while making a turn but the truck has had this same error message while driving straight on the highway. I am unsure of what the problem is but I do know it is dangerous to drive this vehicle until the problem is resolved. Road conditions/weather conditions also play no part in when this malfunction takes place. Other pertinent information regarding this issue is that the headlights do flicker from time to time. We have been dealing with this issue since August of this year and have still not found a resolution. Landmark Chevrolet in taylorville, IL has had our vehicle in the shop 4 times on this issue alone and put over 200 miles on our vehicle with no resolution. Friendly Chevrolet in springfield IL had our truck for nearly 3 weeks and put over 70 miles on the vehicle. . . No resolution. Here are a couple videos we recorded and uploaded to youtube documenting the issue. Taken on September 18th, 2016: https://youtu. Be/gp1abwxradg taken on September 19th, 2016: https://youtu.

Steering wheel springs/snaps (hard) in the opposite direction that the wheel is being turned and steering control is lost. When this does not shut the engine off, the only way to regain steering control is to restart the vehicle. When this does cause the engine to shut off the steering is restored with the restart. The stabili trak indicator appears just for an instant on the dic when this happens. Note: this is not the 'service stabili trak' indicator but more like stabili trak has been activated indicator. This happened first in reverse while backing into a parking spot. (three times in reverse). Then it started happening in drive, twice while pulling out from a stop sign and once while doing 15-20 mph turning onto a side street. The 15-20 mph turning instance caused the engine to shut off, steering became non existent for an instant and then very very heavy. I crossed the other lane of traffic and almost landed in the ditch. The truck has been at the dealership twice for a total of 14 days, both times 'cannot duplicate' was the result. No codes are being generated from these instances. Cause is unknown. Loose voltage or high resistance to grounds maybe. This has happened in hot and cold weather, running ac or heater or neither. There is no pattern. Please help.

The problem started while backing a trailer and turning. The stabiltrack light came on and the steering wheel jerked out of my hand. It happened a few more times and then the truck died. Later while driving the stabilitrack light would flash on and the dic would go black. The a. C. Would also go out and come back on. It would also do this when turning on the signal light or stepping on the brake pedal. I was in a parking lot today driving slowly and the st message came then the dic went black again. When I tried to turn the wheel it started jerking back and pulled out of my hand. It seems that shutting the truck off and restarting solves the problem for a day or two. This is a very unsafe issue and I have seen and read many complaints. I have been a huge fan of gm and all I have ever owned were gm vehicles, but this issue is making me wonder if I should have bought a Ford instead. It seems that gm is not worried about recalling because of this safety issue, which there are many complaining of the same thing, and my warranty is about to run out.

This issue is related to stabilitrak, the onboard computing system. When on the interstate, loss of power can occur. Usually at high speeds, the power just 'flickers' on and off, some times repeatedly. The breaking mechanism seems to be somewhat affected by this. At slower speeds, the same problem can occur, but the steering wheel locks up and forces my truck to turn hard to the left. Each time the problem occurs, "stabilitrak error" and "loss of traction control" or something along the lines of "loss of power, danger" will appear -- although, it is usually just something relating to "stabilitrak". I've nearly been in an accident ~3 times. It's no question a danger to the driver and to pedestrians. Gm has been getting sued like crazy, and it's pretty clear they are avoiding this issue because of this.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. While driving 40 mph, another vehicle crashed head on into the contact's vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy. A police report was filed. The contact sustained severe whiplash and a concussion, which required medical attention. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and sent an engineer to inspect the vehicle. Shortly after, while driving at an unknown speed, the stabilitrac warning light illuminated and the power steering malfunctioned. The steering wheel jerked violently. The vehicle was towed back to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that all the steering electronic sensors needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was 19,000.

Was making a right hand turn onto on-ramp, vehilcle's brake lights on dash all came on, radio station changed channels and engine hesitated. Warning lights on dash went out, radio stayed on switched channel, engine returned to normal, but service stability track information came up on panel. Service warning went off in about 300 yards, vehicle returned to normal operation.
