5 safety recall campaigns, 46 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
A separated inflator end cap or inflator rupture can allow compressed gas to escape, resulting in the end cap or other components being propelled into the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury or crash.
An engine stall increases the risk of a crash.
An electrical short-circuit can increase the risk of a fire.
A short-circuit may damage the engine components and increase the risk of fire.
The seat belt retractors may not perform as intended during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Two 2018 GMC SIERRA 2500s can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
