The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that while at a stoplight, the driver’s side front air bag deployed without warning or impact. There were no injuries reported. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V050000 (Air Bags). The local dealer was contacted and referred the contact to the manufacturer for assistance.

Just few minutes ago around 5:45 PM, Monday, September 8th 2025. I started my engine with the remote start in my drive way. After about 30 seconds there was a series of 3 or 4 violent explosions each with a 1 or two second interval. The driver side, passenger side and both side air bags deployed fracturing my windshield and causing other potential internal damage to the passenger compartment. I feel very fortunate that I wasn't seated in the vehicle at the time as I'm sure I could have been severely injured or potentially killed. I had taken the car in for an air-bag recall a couple of years ago at Good Chevrolet in Renton, WA.

No crank no start however engine just shit down while driving immediately lost all control of vehicle! Luckily I had just pulled off highway! No warning whatsoever it just happened out of no where now won’t start and has a u0100 code

The Keyless Entry Receiver(GM) Radio Module in my 2007 Chevy Silverado is retaining moisture. It caused my Tire Pressure Monitoring System to fail eventually causing a blow out on the highway. I believe moisture from the third headlight above rear window is allowing moisture to drip into the Keyless Entry Receiver. There are many accounts of this failing, I’m not sure why this has not been recalled. I nearly died.

My vehicle will just start up sometimes on its own with or without key in ignition, as well as set alarm off. Also, it constantly feels like the brakes are on at all times. It feels like it drags alot. And it feels like it doesn't properly have enough power when accelerating.

WHEN I TRY STARTING THE TRUCK IT MAKES A CLICKING SOUND LIKE IT WANTS TO TURN OVER AND THEN WON'T. SOMETIMES IT NEVER HAPPENS AND OTHER TIMES IT MAY TAKE THREE OR FOUR TIMES OF TRYING TO GET IT TO START BEFORE IT WILL. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND CONTINUED TO STAY ON. TOOK IT TO A CHEVY DEALER AND WAS PLACED ON THE DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER AND I WAS TOLD CODES FOUND WERE PO174 AND PO171. SMOKE TEST WAS PERFORMED ON EVAP SYSTEM AND INDUCTION SYSTEM. FOUND LEAKS AT THE PCV HOSE, PURGE VALVE HOSES AND PURGE VALVE IS STUCK OPEN. THESE WERE REMOVED AND REPLACED BOTH PURGE VALVE HOSES, PURGE VALVE AND PCV HOSE. $523.80 LATER THE PROBLEM IS STILL NOT FIXED.

TAKATA RECALL. AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. CLUSTER READS SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM

The dash of my Chevy Silverado is cracked and continues to crack, on 9.27.2023 a couple of large pieces broke completely out of the dash which is right by the airbag on the right side of the dash. Now I have a gaping hole. As far as I see at this time there are no recalls for the dash.

I RECEIVED AN LETTER IN THE MAIL STATING THAT MY VEHICLE HAD AN RECALL FOR AIRBAGS. I CALL GERRY LANE SOUTH CHEVY IN BATON ROUGE, LA AND THEY REFUSED TO HONOR IT. I'VE CONTACTED THEM ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS? I WOULD HATE FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN TO ME IF I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. ALSO, I'VE LOOKED ON NHTSA WEBSITE FOR OTHER RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE HAS AN RECALL FOR AN WHEEL HUB ASSEMBLIES. MY VEHICLE PULLS TO THE RIGHT TO THE POINT THAT I HAVE TO STOP TO THE VEHICLE (IF I CAN), AND IT ROARS VERY. ACCORDING TO THE NHTSA WEBSITE THE VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE THE RECALLED DONE BUT I DON'T BELIEVE IT WAS DONE CORRECTLY. CAN I GET THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX THE RECALL IF THE RECALL WAS ALREADY DONE? I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF THE VEHICLE.

2007 CHEVORLET SILVERADO 1500 2WD V8 4.8L, ENGINE FIRE. FIRE DEPARTMENT & INSURANCE COMPANY BOTH DO NOT BELIEVE THERE WAS FRAUD OR ARSON. TOTAL LOSS. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED OUTSIDE OF MY RESIDENCE ON THE RESIDENTIAL DRIVEWAY AT ABOUT 3:50A.M. WE HEARD A BLOW WHICH WAS THE TIRE IN THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE. WE CALLED POLICE PLUS FIRE DEPARTMENT. THE ENGINE FRONT PART OF TRUCK PLUS THE 2 TIRE'S IN FRONT AND ENGINE CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE HOOD STILL ON, AND THE WINDOWS DID NOT BREAK. THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE GOOD JUST WET AFTER THE FACT. FIRE REPORT SAYS AREA OF FIRE ORIGIN WAS THE ENGINE AREA, RUNNING GEAR, WHEEL AREA. ITEM FIRST IGNITED WAS THE PIPE, DUCT, CONDUIT & HOSE COVERING. IT WAS ABOUT 2:30A.M. SAME DAY WE GOT HOME. IT HAD NOT BEEN 2 HOURS THAT WE DROVE THE VEHICLE. IT WAS PARKED AND THE IGNITION OFF WHEN THIS FIRE STARTED. MY DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR MUST HAVE UNLOCKED AND THE BACK DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS STAYED LOCKED BECAUSE WHEN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT PUT OUT FIRE THE DOORS WERE THAT WAY.

YOUR NOT SAFE. INSURANCE CO PAYS THE VALUE AND BOOK CLOSED. I HAVE NO VEHICLE TO SHOW FOR THOSE 3 YEARS. NO FRAUD NO ARSON AND NO VEHICLE. AND NOTHING DONE. IT'S NOT RIGHT. *TR
