The fuse box fails to give power to the vehicle causing it to stall at any given moment which can cause an accident or even death if it-??s struck in traffic by another vehicle or loss of control because of no power to steer your vehicle

The dashboard has cracked in several places, and I believe, it is going to effect the air bag system and dashboard wiring, which could lead to the passenger air bag not deploying or engine stalling at speed because of pieces of dash falling into the wires.

I went and got an alignment, a day after the stabilitrak and traction control message came on. I went back to see if it could be fix it and was told it didn't come on when they test drove it. The same day it came on again, so I went to a GMC dealership. I was told my steering wheel pos sensor is bad. I was in motion on a city street, going and coming from work(happens in same exact spot on the street(s).this is my only form of transportation and what I need to do.

I purchased my 2013 GMC Sierra 1500 sle ext cab brand new. I have had to replace the drivers side master window switch due to failure, replaced under warranty. I now have to replace the switch again as it has failed. I just saw a NHTSA recall id number :18V295 manufacturer :General Motors llc subject :liquid may leak into power window switch makemodelmodel years chevroletexpress2014-2017 gmcsavana2014-2017. I believe there is a serious issue with the switches in my model truck aand it should be checked out. I have owned many vehicles and never have I had to replace a master window switch 3 times, there is a problem with these switches.the rear passenger window worked intermittently, then the rear drivers side also worked intermitenly, now all 4 windows work intermittently.

Safety issue with cracks in the dashboard in the upper left portion of the passenger side airbag. If the airbag goes off, either in accident or in error, parts of the dashboard will dislodge and be a danger to the occupants.
