Bryan1 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 July 28, 2014 For owners of GM's most popular pickups, recalls have been almost a monthly occurrence this year. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and the GMC Sierra have been recalled six times so far in 2014, giving them the dubious honor of being the year's most frequently recalled vehicles. And it doesn't stop there - the two trucks have been recalled nine times since they hit showrooms 12 months ago. (snip) "We are doing our best to minimize inconvenience to owners of recalled vehicles," said spokesman Alan Adler. "But our customers' safety comes first. If we identify an issue -- large or small -- that might affect the safety of our customers, we will act decisively." http://money.cnn.com/2014/07/28/autos/most-recalled-vehicle/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron W. Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 While corporate must be embarrassed by all the recent recalls regardless of model at least they're trying to fix the problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlRozzi Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Now that GM has learned that recalling cars and thereby getting people into the dealership helps to sell more cars, maybe they will institute a policy of "recall of the week?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97svtgoin05gt Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 This is all somewhat amusing and beyond this, there is information indicating they intend to bring their "new and improved" models out 9 months ahead of schedule to fight off the likes of the new F150. With this truck being not much more than a prettied up last version I cringe to think what will happen with them rushing the new NEW one out the door.

jpd80 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I'll predict that GM will go further and put its 8L90 gearbox in as many Silverado and Sierra 1500s as it can, not just the darling 6.2 V8. It simply has to in order to keep pace with CAFE and competitors like Ford and Chrysler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
15F4fiddy Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 We have been looking for a new truck for our 5th wheel and boy are we glad that we did not get the Chevy. The towing capacity could not even keep up with Dodge or Ford. Needless to say Ford won out all three with us. And now with reading about all the recalls I'm glad that we didn't get one.
