ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
I continually receive a “Low coolant “ warning on my dash. While the truck was under warranty, the dealership replaced the coolant reservoir which contains the coolant level sensor. Now that my vehicle is no longer under warranty they refuse to fix the problem unless I pay for it. The dealership has refused to acknowledge that there is a problem even after replacing it three times.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The electrical connector vibrated loose at the injector. The mechanic said he has seen this happen before and GM said its because those motors vibrate excessively. It caused my vehicle to run in reduced power mode. In that mode it was lurching forward uncontrollably and it felt like the transmission was banging. What damage will that alone cause in the future? Also, if GM knows there is an issue, why isn't it fixed? Why is the consumer responsible for poor engineering or design flaws? It isn't normal wear and tear or neglect on my part. The repairs including the part and the rental car cost me $640.45! Oddly enough it wasn't covered under any extended warranty or recall so I had to pay out of pocket. Very dangerous and expensive!

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
Truck was parked, windows up with the key/FOB partially inserted into the ignition. Spare key/FOB was approximately 2 miles away. Mid afternoon on Saturday I could hear a vehicle start run for a few seconds and shut off. I assumed it was a neighbors vehicle. This occurred at least 5 times and it peaked my interest. It was my truck starting on its own. I went outside and opened the drivers door… the radio stopped playing and the dash went dark. It has not repeated since Saturday. Mileage 41256. Approximately 3 months ago the radio would automatically scroll/change channels…GM said it was not covered under warranty. So I decided to let it go. About 3 weeks ago the radio started working okay.
