This page covers 1 recall and 39 owner complaints for the 2013 GMC Sierra.
Complaints on the 2013 GMC Sierra spread across a few systems, with steering and powertrain each drawing the most reports. On the steering side, owners describe a loose or sloppy steering wheel, abnormal noises from the steering column area, and a general lack of precision, symptoms that tend to show up when driving over bumps or uneven surfaces. Powertrain complaints center on unexpected power loss while driving, often accompanied by a check engine light, with some owners noting dealers couldn't replicate the fault and the vehicle left unrepaired. Airbag reports, the third most-cited category, include accounts of airbags deploying without any collision or impact. A handful of owners also mention a cracked dashboard behind the instrument cluster, though that appears in a smaller number of reports than the lead systems.
