I HAD PULLED AWAY FROM BACK DOOR OF STORE AFTER DROPPING OFF A DONATION. I DROVE ABOUT 30 FEET WHEN MY PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR POPPED OPEN AND TAPPED A FENCE POST. EVERY AIRBAG WENT OFF IN THE VEHICLE, EXCEPT FOR THE STEERING WHEEL. I COULD NOT HAVE BEEN GOING MORE THAN 5MPH. IT SOUNDED LIKE AN EXPLOSION WENT OFF AND FRIGHTENED ME TERRIBLY AS I AM CLAUSTROPHOBIC AND WAS TRAPPED IN THE VEHICLE. THE INSURANCE AGENT, AND TOW SERVICE SAID THAT THAT DOOR HITTING A FENCE POST SHOULD NOT HAVE BLOWN EVERY AIRBAG IN THE VEHICLE. THEY BOTH ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THEY HAD NEVER SEEN THAT HAPPEN IN ALL THE ACCIDENTS THEY HAVE BEEN TO. I DO NOT FEEL LIKE MY INSURANCE COMPANY SHOULD HAVE TO COVER THIS AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY THE $1000 DEDUCTIBLE WHEN THERE IS CLEARLY PROBLEMS WITH ALL THE RECALLS ON AIRBAGS.

Oct 24, 2019

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2015-2020 Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Yukon, and 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles equipped with a 5.3-liter engine, a 3.08-ratio rear axle and four-wheel drive. If a wheel-speed sensor fails, while the vehicle is traveling between 41 and 60 mph in four-wheel or automatic mode, the Electronic-Brake Control Module (EBCM) software may activate the driveline-protection system.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: Unintended activation of the driveline-protection system will cause unintended braking on the wheel on the opposite side of the failed sensor, causing the vehicle to pull to one side unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the EBCM, free of charge. The recall began December 11, 2019. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-630-2438 or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is N192261050.
