2016 GMC Sierra 3500 Recalls & Complaints

The 2016 GMC Sierra 3500 has 6 recalls, the most serious being a brake pedal that can loosen or stop working entirely, leaving the driver unable to slow the vehicle and potentially causing the pedal to catch on the accelerator.

A separate fuel system recall affects trucks with dual gasoline tanks: a sticking fuel-level sensor in the front tank can allow the rear tank to overfill it, building enough pressure to expand the front tank until it contacts the driveshaft and develops a hole, creating a fuel leak. On the safety equipment side, the roof-rail curtain airbag inflator can rupture or shed its end cap, sending metal fragments into the cabin during a deployment. There is also a concern with the front airbags and seatbelt pretensioners, where a wiring issue can prevent both systems from firing in a crash, reducing protection for the driver and front passenger. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve that pretensioner issue, which is why it appears across more than one filing.
