When at highway speeds of approximately 65+ mph the vehicle begins to vibrate or shake violently as if the rear end of the truck is about to fall out. It is bad enough to make you white knuckle the steering wheel cause you to swerve slightly

I turned on the rear defroster, and my daughter said "mom, it's sizzling." i looked back and there was smoke on the rear window. Then there was a loud bang, and it shattered. The vehicle was not in motion at the time. I was just getting ready to back out of the parking area in my driveway.

The air conditioning started blowing hot air while moving. The truck is only 4 years old with 75000 miles on it. In doing research we have learned that this is a common problem with the gmc sierra's and it not covered by gm even though it appears to be a design flaw.

I was warming the truck up in the morning with the auto start, parked, and had the auto defrost turned on for the rear. When i entered the truck and closed the door the rear passenger window that is facing the bed, shattered. I'm assuming the defrost is running too hot and weakened the glass or something related to the issue. I know of several other people that have this problem as well.…

This post is about making the public aware of a potential problem. Although the manufacturer did not step up and do the right thing, i'm concerned others may have dealt with this problem or it may happen in the future. On august 29, 2018, my truck was parked on my driveway by 4pm after running errands for a couple of hours. At 6pm my husband went out to get something out of it and saw it had caught on fire. Nothing…
