Sierra 1500 5.3L

Well I guess I'm part of the club now..... 50k miles on GMC 1500 and yup, I have a Radiator leak. Small but noticeable.

It is clearly an issue. GMC has put out a notice on it and the 2014 GMC 1500 have a recall/fix on it. Unfortunately, the dealer say the 2015's aren't part of the fix.... "NOT ENOUGH COMPLAINTS" really?

Pretty disappointed in GMC. It's a known problem and they are still are unwilling to fix it.

I filed my Complaint with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Hope others will follow... this is an expensive fix... Manufacturing defect. I'll attach some info for others.

Kept smelling coolant burning, level dropping. GM found a notice saying to replace radiator. Must have been the 20th time the truck has been in the shop.
