2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Problems

I was in a rollover accident on June 26th 2025 in my boyfriends 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 where we flipped 5 and a half times. The wheel separated from the rim. I will upload photos since I am unsure how to explain how the wheel damage is. During the crash the drivers air bags deployed but the passengers did not. When we finally landed we ended up on the roof. My boyfriend tried to unbuckle my seatbelt but it would not release. He ended up cutting my seatbelt and then at that time (approx 3 min after we landed) the passenger airbag deployed striking my boyfriend in the back, neck and head. Which knocked him out for approx 1 hour. My boyfriend had several open lacerations to his back, neck, head and his arms and metal pieces were imbedded in his skin. He also suffered other injuries like a fractured back, and several other medical problems.I got a severe concussion in which it has caused me severe headaches, memory problems and cognitive issues. Both of us have reduced quality of life.

I was at a stop light and heard a loud noise like a shotgun blast. I felt a concussion hit me in the chest. I thought I had been shot at, then thought I was possibly rear ended but nobody was behind me. I noticed the airbag light was on, the hazards were on and I couldn't shut them off, and the seatbelts were, and still are all locked. But no airbag deployed. There was a smell in the cab that vaguely smelled like a cross between gunpowder and ozone. It's fortunate that I was not at freeway speed.

Driving on Interstate at a speed of 65, truck lost power. Check engine light and all lights on dash appeared I initially mistakenly reported the wrong mileage of 160k. My vehicle only has 135k miles on it

Driving on Interstate at a speed of 70 when truck lost power. Check engine light came on and other lights on dash came on also. 2007 with 160k miles original barely driven. This year should be a part of the Class Action Suit

STEERING POSITIONING / ANGLE SENSOR, FAULT THAT COULD SHUT YOUR VEHICLE DOWN WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE A 2007 GMC SIERRA AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE EXACT SAME PART, THE STEERING POSITION/ ANGLE SENSOR. I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR MORE THAN 2 MONTHS TO GET A DEALERSHIP TO ORDER ME THE PART TO HAVE IT REPAIRED BUT ONLY TO BE TOLD THE PART HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED MY GENERAL MOTORS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS VEHICLE STILL ON THE ROAD THAT HAVE THIS ISSUE AND GM DISCONTINUED THIS PART.

TRUCK RANDOMLY DOESNT START. NO CRANK NO START BECAME MORE FREQUENT AND HAS NOW DIED AT HWY SPEEDS 3-4 TIMES. RESULTING IN NO POWER STEERING,NO ABS, AIRBAGS BECOME DEACTIVATED IN A STALL SITUATION TO MY KNOWLEDGE. MAKING IT VERY HARD TO CONTROL THE TRUCK IN ORDER TO GET IT OFF THE HWY/ROADWAY. STABILITRAK LIGHT, TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ALL STAY ON AND THE MOST RECENT LIGHT IS NOW THE ABS LIGHT. NOW IT'S TO A THE POINT OF HARDLY STARTING AT ALL. THE KEY HAS RECENTLY BECAME VERY HARD TO TURN AS WELL. ORIGINALLY THE DOOR LOCKS WOULD CYCLE MULTIPLE TIMES , AND INTERIOR LIGHTS DASH LIGHTS WOULD ALL CYCLE AT FAST RATE ALL AT ONCE. WHEN THIS FIRST HAPPENED I WAS ALWAYS ABLE TO EVENTUALLY GET THE TRUCK TO START A SHORT TIME AFTER. ENGINE POWER REDUCED IS ANOTHER SPECIFIC WARNING THAT APPEARS NOW THAT IT'S NOW DYING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HWY. EACH INCIDENT WHEN THE TRUCK HAS STALLED IT'S BEEN WHEN DRIVING AT LEAST 60 MPH.OR MORE. NUMEROUS OWNERS OF GM VEHICLES ARE AND HAVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUES FOR FAR TOO LONG WITH LITTLE BEING DONE FOR ALOT OF THESE OWNERS.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL COME ON AND NOT TURN OFF. I HAVE HAD IT AT THE MECHANIC FOR THIS AT LEAST 5 TIMES. IT HAPPENS WHENEVER IT RAINS OR THE WINDSIELD OR SOME PART GETS WET, LIKE A CAR WASH. AFTER DRYING OUT, USUALLY AT LEAST A FEW HOURS OF NO MOISTURE, THE WIPERS STAY OFF. TAKATA RECALL - IT'S BEEN AT LEAST 3 YEARS AND THIS IS A TRUCK I'VE DRIVEN FOR A QUARTER OF A MILLION MILES - YET NO RESPONSE OR FIX AVAILABLE FROM GMC

VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM, CAUSING STALLING, VERY LOW ROUGH IDLE, UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. THIS HAPPENS IN TRAFFIC, AT STOP LIGHTS ETC. THE MAKE AND MODEL OF MY TRUCK IS INCLUDED IN A SAFETY RECALL BULLETIN #14515B JANUARY 2015, HOWEVER MY PARTICULAR TRUCK IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. I HAVE CONTACTED GM AND THEY ARE UNWILLING TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP FLOW CONTROL MODULE THAT IS CAUSING THIS SAFETY HAZARD. MY BELIEF IS THAT GM RECALLED CERTAIN VEHICLES AND EXCLUDED SOME THAT SHOULD BE IN THE SAFETY RECALL SCOPE. *TR

ON APRIL 13 2014 MY TRUCK WAS LEAKING FUEL TOO BAD TO CONTINUE DRIVING. I HAVE BEEN SMELLING GAS FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND COULD NEVER FIND WHERE THE LEAK WAS COMING FROM. THEN ON APRIL 13TH WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME I SMELLED GAS AND HAD TO PULL OVER, FRIGHTENED THAT THE TRUCK MIGHT CATCH FIRE AND EXPLODE. IT SEEMS THERE IS A LEAK AROUND THE FUEL TANK. I NOTIFIED GM AND THEY SAID THAT THEY WOULD ONLY PAY FOR A PORTION OF THE REPAIR. ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT STARTED ABOUT THE SAME TIME I STARTED SMELLING GAS WAS THAT THE KEY STARTED GETTING STUCK IN THE START POSITIOIN CONTINUALLY TURNING OVER THE STARTER. I THEN HAVE TO STRUGGLE FORCEFULLY TO GET THE KEY TO TURN TO THE OFF POSITION, FEARFUL OF CAUSING MORE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE OR POSSIBLY CATCHING FIRE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THESE TRUCKS DON'T HAVE A RECALL ON THEM!! *JS

The contact owns a 2007 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that there was a crack on the passenger’s side dashboard close to the air bag housing. The contact stated that there was also a crack on the driver's side above the instrument panel and in the middle of the dashboard. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who informed her that the manufacturer would not be responsible for the dashboard repairs in 2019. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the cracks have progressed over the years. The contact stated that she received NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V050000 (Air Bags) and the vehicle was taken to Reliable Buick GMC (400 Automall Dr, Roseville, CA 95661) for the recall repair and she was informed that she had to sign a waiver for the dashboard damages in order to replace the air bag. The contact stated that she was informed that there was a possibility of the dashboard cracking during the recall repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was unknown.

THIS IS THE E-MAIL I SENT TO GM REGARDING THE PROBLEM WITH THE BACK SEAT AND HOW I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THEY DID NOT RESPOND TO MY E-MAIL SO BY THE 8TH DAY I CALLED AND THEY SAID THEY CLOSED THE CASE BASED ON WHAT THE DEALER SAID, "CONDITION DOES NOT REPRESENT A SAFETY HAZARD." I STRONGLY DISAGREED AND PURSUED IT FURTHER GETTING THE SAME ANSWER. HERE IS THE E-MAIL: I HAVE A 2007 SIERRA GMC WITH A BACK SEAT THAT HAS MOVEMENT (PLAY) IN IT DUE TO WHAT GM CALLS A "RATTLE CLIP" BREAKING. I QUESTIONED THE DEALERSHIP WHEN TAKING THE VEHICLE IN FOR A DIFFERENT REPAIR AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS JUST A RATTLE CLIP. I HAVE CALLED GM REGARDING THE SAFETY ISSUE AND WAS GIVEN AN AUTHORIZATION FOR A COVERED DIAGNOSTIC ON THE TRUCK. AGAIN, THE DEALERSHIP SAID, "FOUND 2 SEAT BACK RATTLE CLIPS BROKEN. CONDITION DOES NOT REPRESENT A SAFETY HAZARD." I DECLINED THE REPAIR BASED ON THE FACT THERE IS NO KNOWN CAUSE FOR THE FAILURE OF THESE CLIPS EXCEPT FOR THE SIMPLE FACT THEY ARE CHEAP PLASTIC. I DO NOT FEEL REPLACING A PLASTIC CLIP WITH ANOTHER PLASTIC CLIP WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. IT WILL ONLY BE A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THEY FAIL AND THE SEAT HAS PLAY IN IT. I QUESTION IF THEY WOULD EVEN HOLD IN THE EVENT OF AN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT. WHEN STRAPPING IN A CHILD'S CAR SEAT THERE IS TO BE NO MOVEMENT IN IT IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT FOR OBVIOUS SAFETY REASONS. I DO NOT SEE HOW A BACK SEAT THAT HAS A 1 1/2 INCH OR MORE OF PLAY IN IT IS NOT CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE A VIDEO I WOULD LIKE TO E-MAIL YOU SO YOU CAN DETERMINE THIS FOR YOURSELF. I AM REQUESTING THEY ADDRESS THIS SAFETY ISSUE SO MY FAMILY AND ANY OTHER PASSENGERS CAN BE SAFE WHILE RIDING IN MY GMC. I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT ALTHOUGH THEY NAMED THIS PART A "RATTLE CLIP" IT SERVE MORE OF A PURPOSE THAN TO JUST STOP A RATTLE NOSE. IT SECURES THE BACK OF THE SEAT TO THE FRAME OF THE TRUCK SO THERE IS NO MOVEMENT. *TR

Transmission

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED VIOLENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED A SECOND TIME. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,499.

JUST UNBELIEVABLE THAT A I PAID SO MUCH FOR THIS TRUCK TO HAVE RECALLS AND SO MANY ISSUES. I HOPE YOU GUYS TAKE RESPONSIBILITY JUST LIKE I DID TO PAID THE TRUCK.

THE BRAKE LIGHTS TURN OFF IF YOU PRESS THE BRAKE AND THEN SLIGHTLY DEPRESS THE PEDAL, ALTHOUGH THE BRAKES ARE STILL APPLIED THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE NOT ON. I FIRST NOTICED IT WHILE BACKING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY AT NIGHT, AND I DID NOT THINK IT WAS A SAFETY CONCERN UNTIL I SAW MY WIFE STOP FROM 45 MPH AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS FLASHED AND THEN TURNED OFF UNTIL SHE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY THOUGHT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRUCK, AND REPLACED THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH. THE PROBLEM DID NOT GO AWAY. THE SAME DEFECT IS ON EVERY TRUCK ON THE CAR LOT. THE DEALERSHIP WROTE ON MY INVOICE THAT THE OWNER PRESUMES THAT WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS PRESSED THE BRAKE LIGHTS SHOULD BE ON. DUH!! *TR

DRIVE SHAFT VIBRATION AND LOCKING UP DURING BRAKING AT ALL SPEEDS, REAR END OF TRUCK FEELS LIKE ITS COMING OFF. DEALER STATED TSB ISSUED BECAUSE ISSUE IS WIDESPREAD. *TR
