After 3 1/2 years of recall, nothing has been done to this vehicle due to Chevrolet saying "later" you will be notified. I feel this amount of time is neglect.

"takata recall" - I received a recall letter in july 2016 but have called dealers multiple times and they say there is nothing they can do and gm feels my truck is safe. I have moved twice since the initial contact but still live in the souther high humidity area (moved from new orleans to houston). How do I get my truck fixed???

Takata recall. I received a letter in the mail regarding the airbag recall which stated "contact your nearest dealership immediately to schedule a free repair." I called my dealership, gillman Chevrolet 956-365-6150, and was told there was no fix for the issue and there is nothing they can do for me

Noticed smell of gasoline- progressively became stronger. Noted gasoline leaking from vehicle- taken to service- fuel line from the fuel pump to the gas tank was heavily corroded/leaking. Potential existed for fire/explosion d/t leaking gasoline. Also shortly after purchase of vehicle as new, had to have rear bumper replaced d/t rusting of part. *tr
The air conditioner will not come on to clear window of fog below 40 degrees . This is dangerous and has caused me to almost go off road as no visibility present. The windows will fog up so quickly and the defroster can not clear windshield fast enough .the air conditioner is automatically controlled instead of manually. *ln

Right front light keeps going out no matter how many times I replace it
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 Chevrolet silverado 1500. While inspecting the vehicle, the contact noticed that the third brake light was shifting out of place. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The dealer diagnosed that the interior of the third brake light housing was corroded with rust and, in due time, the light would fall out or cause a fire hazard. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was 92,450.

Frame is rotting quickly and causing suspension issues
body 1 complaint shown
The driver's door failed to open from the inside when arriving at my destination. The locks appeared to work both manually and electrically but the inside door latch handle would not open the door. I think this is a bit of a safety issue. Very difficult to climb across the console to get to the passenger side door. It finally cleared itself after a bit of time, but you want that door to open when you need it to open. A couple of weeks later I was playing with it again, it opened but would not latch to close. I would suspect the issues are related but have not had it back to the dealer to have it looked at. *tr

visibility 1 complaint shown
My truck has had this problem from the time it was made. They designed the defroster to work with the ac unit to produce dry air. But once the outside temp drops below 35 degrees the ac unit shuts off. With this setup it causes my windows to fog up with moist air requiring me to pull off the road until I can get the window cleared. Over the last two years I have almost wrecked due to not being able to see. I have contacted the dealer and Chevrolet and have not got any help. *tr

While driving to work in heavy traffic, my 2010 Chevrolet silverado with 27,000 mile suddenly lost power and slowed from 50mph to 25mph in a matter of seconds. Due to the extreme reduction in speed with out my brake lights being engaged, a vehicle following me had to make an emergency maneuver, turn in the right lane, and almost struck a third vehicle. Three warning messages were given that included, engine power reduced, traction control off and service stabilitrack. The vehicle started to run extremely rough and I pulled into a parking lot. While in the parking, lot I researched the above listed messages and found that several other owners have experienced the same problem that has been linked to the throttle body system and the intake. I then researched if any recalls have been issued f
