I HAVE BOUGHT VEHICLES SINCE I WAS 17 YEARS OLD. I HAVE NEVER HAD THE WHOLE LEFT SIDE ELECTRONICS GO BAD LIKE IN MY 2008 SILVERADO, LTZ. THE WINDOWS WOULD NOT GO UP OR DOWN. EITHER SIDE. MY MIRRORS WOULD NOT COME IN. EXTENDED CAB WINDOWS WOULD NOT WORK . I REPLACED LEFT DOOR ELECTRONICS PANEL, CHEV. DEALER MECHANIC TRIED TO SYNCRONIZE WITH VEHICLE COMPUTER ($130.00) FOUND BROKEN WIRES IN HARNESS. MECHANIC TRIED TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND SHUT DRIVERS DOOR. OPENED DOOR AND THE WIRES HAD BROKEN AGAIN PLUS IT SHORTED OUT A FUSE PANEL.A NEW HARNESS AND PANEL WAS ORDERED. A WEEK LATER THE NEW ITEMS WERE INSTALLED ( $606.89). THE MECHANIC THEN SAID THAT THE LEFT REAR DOOR WAS SHORTING OUT AND IT NEEDED A NEW HARNESS ($500.99). I WAITED ANOTHER WEEK AND THIS HARNESS WAS INSTALLED ON 2-13-15. IF I HAD BEEN IN A WRECK AND THE DOORS COULD NOT BE OPENED AND I COULD NOT GET MY WINDOWS DOWN I COULD HAVE BURNT UP OR THE FIRST RESPONDERS WOULD HAVE HAD TO CUT ME OUT OF MY TRUCK. THIS HAPPENED TO ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WITH MY WHOLE LEFT SIDE ELECTRONICS GOING DEAD. A FRIEND OF MINE ALSO BOUGHT A 2008 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN AND HAS ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE LEFT SIDE ELECTRONICS IN HIS DRIVERS DOOR. ([XXX], OWNER OF BODY SHOP) HE ADVISED THAT HE HAD HEARD OF MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

ALL FOUR DOORS WOULD NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK BY PRESSING THE LOCK BUTTON ON EITHER FRONT DOORS OR BY USING THE REMOTE WHEN STOPPED. IT SCARES ME AS A PARENT OF A SEVEN YEAR OLD THAT THE DOORS MAY NOT LOCK WHEN NEEDED AND MY CHILD COULD ACCIDENTALLY OPEN THE DOOR WHEN DRIVING ANYWHERE AT ANY SPEED. FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS THIS REALLY CONCERNS ME BECAUSE IF WE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT WHAT IF THE DOORS COULDN'T UNLOCK BY BUTTON OR MANUALLY OR LOCK TO KEEP PASSENGERS IN WHILE DRIVING. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD THAT REALLY NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BY GM AND AN ACTION TAKEN INTO AFFECT TO CORRECT THIS FAULTY ISSUE OR PARTS.

VEHICLE WAS STOPPED, WAITING TO ENTER ROAD, DASHBOARD LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE AND SMOKE STARTED POURING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. TURNED VEHICLE OFF, CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND IT WAS TAKEN TO OUR MECHANIC. THE SEALED INTERNAL FUSE BOX AND WIRING HARNESS CONECTIONS HAD CAUGHT FIRE AND BURNED, DAMAGING THE MAIN FUSE PANEL THAT COSTS $450 TO REPLACE AND THE MAIN WIRING HARNESS CONNECTED TO THE FUSE BOX. I HAVE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FILED BY OTHER SILVERADO OWNERS FOR THE SAME REASON BUT THEIR VEHICLES COMPLETELY BURNED TO THE GROUND. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO INJURED OR KILLED BY THIS BEFORE THERE IS A RECALL? PLEASE HELP!

THE CAB TO OPERATOR COMMUNICATION STARTED SLOWLY DIMINISHING. EVENTUALLY ALL AUDIBLE BEEPS, DINGS AND MUSIC ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CAB WERE SHUTOFF. THE SPEED CONTROL CRUISE WAS NOT ACTIVATION, BUT THE BUTTON WOULD LIGHT UP. CURRENTLY THE LEFT SIDE OF THE TRUCK, IN THE CAB, IS OUT OF POWER. I AM CONCERNED, DOES THIS AFFECT THE AIR BAG SYSTEM TOO? THE TRUCK DOES A SELF DIAGNOSTICS MONTHLY AND NO ISSUES WERE NOTED, BUT THEY WERE OBVIOUS ISSUES THAT A DIAGNOSTIC SHOULD HAVE PICKED UP A NOTABLE CHANGE. THE LIGHTING ISSUE I EXPERIENCED WERE WITH EACH TAILLIGHT. I WOULD RANDOMLY BLOW TAIL LIGHT BULBS. A CLOSER LOOK SHOWED CORROSION AND OBVIOUS SHORTING, BUT NO FUSE WAS FAULTED. BULB WAS BURNED AT THE CONNECTORS. FURTHER REVIEW IT WAS NOTICED THAT EACH TAIL LIGHT HAD WATER IN THE BOTTOM. TRAVELING CAUSED THE WATER TO SHORT OUT AND DAMAGE THE BULB, LEAVING ME WITH NO REAR LIGHTING RANDOMLY. I HAVE SINCE DRILLED HOLES IN THE BOTTOM OF EACH TAIL LIGHT AS THERE IS NOT WAY TO REMOVE THE MOISTURE. I HAVE ALSO INSPECTED THE BULB SEALS AND FIND THEY ARE FIRMLY PRESSING ON TO THE SEALING SURFACES, WHICH ARE CLEAN AND FREE FROM ROAD DUST AND GRIME...PLUS THEY ARE HIDDEN INSIDE THE BODY OF THE TRUCK. IN SUMMARY, I WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE SOME LEVEL OF DETAIL REGARDING THE ELECTRICAL ISSUE, FOCUSING ON HOW IT CAN BE REPAIRED. REGARDING THE LIGHTING, THIS IS CONCERNING AND SHOULD BE A CONSIDERATION FOR RISK ASSESSMENT DURING DESIGN.
