--radio power button inoperative --radio channel change buttons, to left of steering wheel inoperative (everyday) --radio volume inoperative -just stops working (sometimes) --radio “home” button, left of radio power button inoperative --driver door mirror wobbles when above 50 mph (very distracting when driving) --driver door hard to close and out of alignment --dealership is selling the vehicles knowing some of the issues are present, but not advising the buyer. My safety is/was at risk due to having to move my hands off the steering wheel to touch the radio display to make any changes while driving. A certified gm service dept confirmed all my issues and could not repair. They quoted a pit 6408. However, this particular pit does not address my issues/concerns.
Tailgate switch tailgate opened on its own with trailer attached while driving damaging the top of my tailgate. No notification inside cab. No console / fob / tailgate buttons were pushed. Discovered tailgate was down after I arrived home and had done a wide u-turn in my back yard. So far dealership has done very little diagnostic wise. Two trips to dealership so far with little to no results. Now I’m scared to use my trailer or utilize the bed of the truck to haul anything due to tailgate might open on its own at 75 mph on a major interstate/ 2 lane road hurting or killing the people in the vehicles behind me. Totally unacceptable from GMC / dealer for a 70k truck.
