When owners complained
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing
out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single
owner can see from inside their own car.

Recalls on the 2016 Chevrolet Express
A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which
the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous
enough to fix for free — however old the car is.
Canada — Transport Canada
Canada runs its own recall programme, and its campaigns do not
always mirror the American ones.
Recall 202321025,587 units in Canada
Electrical
Issue: On certain vehicles, an unused wiring harness for a rear HVAC blower motor, located in the left B-pillar area, could become damaged if exposed to moisture or contaminants. If this happens, the wires could short circuit. Note: This recall only affects cutaway chassis incomplete vehicles. Safety Risk: A short circuit can create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: General Motors will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to a dealership to seal the wiring for the rear HVAC blower motor at the left B-pillar.
Recall 202047956,979 units in Canada
Other
Issue: Certain vehicles may have incorrect body control module software. As a result, the immobilization system is not active during the learning procedure for a new "unlearned" blank replacement key could be used during a 30 minute reprogramming procedure to disable the immobilization system. During this time, the vehicle cannot be driven. Safety Risk: This small error does not affect vehicle safety. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. General Motors has made changes to vehicle software to ensure that all unsold and new vehicles have the correct body control module software.
Recall 20185251,077 units in Canada
Heater And Defroster
On certain vehicles equipped with a single manual rear climate control module (CCM), the CCM could overheat when the temperature is set to maximum heat or the knob is set to maximum floor vent. If this occurs, the insulation material used on the CCM terminal connectors could catch fire, increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will remove the insulation from the CCM terminal connectors.
Recall 201823422,078 units in Canada
Electrical
On certain vehicles equipped with power windows, liquid can enter the power window switches causing corrosion and lead to a high electrical resistance. This could cause the switch to heat up, smoke or melt, which would increase the risk of fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the driver’s side window switch with a switch that has additional protection against liquid intrusion.
Recall 2018212368 units in Canada
Accessories
On certain vehicles equipped with Kidde fire extinguishers with black plastic handles and valves, the fire extinguishers may become clogged or require excessive force to activate. Also, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury, and fail to discharge. In case of fire, failure of the extinguisher to function could result in injury and/or property damage. Correction: Owners will be provided with instructions on how to inspect the fire extinguisher to see if it is recalled. Replacement fire extinguishers will be supplied by Kidde directly. Note: For more information about recalled fire extinguishers, please visit <a href="https://inmarmarketaction.com/kidde/Kidde284CA/">www.kidde.com</a>

I'd be driving down the street when my brakes would apply by them selves slowing my car down . after that my dash would bong and the ABS light would come on . I took it to my Chevy dealer and they replaced the brakes and said it was fixed . I pulled out of the dealers lot and was driving at 35MPH when the brakes locked and a skidded to a stop . If I hadn;t been buckled in I would have gone thru the windshield . I held the gas pedal to the floor and returnd to the dealer at about 20 MPH and some salesman came running out and said my van was on fire .I got out of my van but I didn't see any fire but there was heavy smoke coming from around the brakes . THE cHEVY DEALER HAD MY VAN APPROXIMATELY 7 MONTHS AND SAID THEY REPAIRED IT TWICE MORE , bUT EVERYTIME i PICKED IT UP THE BRAKES WOULD GO ON A SHORT DISTANCE AWAY AND i WOULD HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK . I have been driving the car because the chevy dealer says they can't get the ABS Module to fix it and I can't drive more than a mile or so from home because the brakes apply themselves and I'm afraid the car will break down or catch on fire . I need a safe car to drive and the chevy dealer says they can't fix it because they can't get the part .

I'd be driving down the street and the brakes would start applying themselves by themselves . I took the van to Ganly Chevrolet the first time and they did a brake job and said it was fixed . I drove it about a half mile and was doing about 35MPH when the brakes locked , if I wasn't buckled in I probably would have gone through the window . I immediately took it back by putting the gas pedal to the floor . you could smell and see the brakes burning . later Ganly said I needed a Brake Module and kept the car After about 6months of having my Van . they finally admitted they couldn't get a Brake Module and they had been on back order for about a year and didn't know if they would ever get one Later they called me and said they found a loose wire and my van was fixed again . I picked the Van up again and while driving home the brakes started stopping me again and my dash board started boinging and my ABS light came on . To this day if I drive it more than a mile my brakes grab , my dash starts boinging , my van shakes and my ABS light comes on and I must atep on the gas to get where I have to go and all this has happened since I paid Ganly Chevrolet approximately $2500.00 for fixing my Van this started in July of 3021 and is still going on .

TIRES
LT245/75R16 The fist tire failure was rear driver's side which caused a code service stable trac- this caused the vehicle to lose power and engine to die. I made home at 20mph in yraffic.I spent $500 for diagnostic check and new tire. The tire is misshapen and alerts sensor that caused engine to lose power and ultimately die. With new tire the problem was solved. But then the rear passenger tire while on the freeway acted up and caused the van to shake and rattle violently. Drove home at lower speed . I replace that tire with the spare which is a different brand and the van ran fine. Checked the bad tire and it is higher on one side than the other. Checked front tires and there are flat spots and irregularities on both tires

NEW Orleans, LA
SUSPENSION
VEHICLE BOUNCES WHEN TRAVELLING ON AN UNEVEN SURFACE. I.E., CONCRETE BRIDGE OR OVERPASS. THIS CONDITION IS MORE PREVALENT WHEN TRAVELLING ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO OPERATE AND THE MANUFACTURER IS UNWILLING TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM, STATING THIS IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE AND THEY CANNOT FIX IT. IN CONTRAST WE HAVE TWO OLDER CHEVROLET VANS THAT DO NOT EXHIBIT THIS PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE IS NOT PRESENTLY IN SERVICE AS A RESULT OF THIS DEFECT. CHEVROLET HAD OPENED A COMPLAINT UNDER THE NUMBER 8-3011733484 FOR FIRE EXTINGUISHER & SUPPLY CO.,INC. THEIR REPRESENTATIVE WAS PAM SAUNDERS. I AM THE PRESIDENT OF FIRE EXTINGUISHER & SUPPLY CO.,INC. THE OWNER OF THE VAN. THE DEALER, BANNER CHEVROLET, HAS MADE SEVERAL UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM BUT NOW SAYS THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO SINCE THIS IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER HAS REPLACED THE FRONT AND REAR SHOCKS AND SPRINGS, ALSO PAID TO HAVE AN ADDITIONAL LEAF SPRING INSTALLED, ALL TO NO REMEDY. THE LAST ACTION, REPLACING THE FRONT SPRINGS, WAS DONE WITHOUT MY CONSENT OR KNOWLEDGE AND ACTUALLY MADE THE PROBLEM WORSE. NOW, THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING MORE. I HAVE CONSULTED AN ATTORNEY BUT THIS HAS NOT PRODUCED MUCH IN THE WAY OF A REMEDY. SO, WE ARE CURRENTLY PAYING INSURANCE AND A TRUCK NOTE ON A VEHICLE WE CANNOT USE BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO PUT MY EMPLOYEES OR MYSELF AT RISK OF A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
