2017 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 2500 Engine Problems

The engine glow plugs keep failing, I have replaced 4 already and 2 more are now failed. The vehicle only has 66K miles on it currently and the failures started around 50K. I do not understand why this hasn't been recalled like the 2018 trucks, they share the exact same engine.

I WAS STOPPED AT A STOPLIGHT, WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I LET OFF THE BRAKE AND THE TRUCK TOOK OFF AT FULL THROTTLE. I NEVER EVEN HAD TIME TO TOUCH THE GAS PEDAL, IT WENT FROM 0 TO 60 IN LESS THAN 1/2 A BLOCK. I THOUGHT IT MAY HAVE BEEN A CRUISE CONTROL ISSUE AND TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO TURN IT OFF, BUT DIDN'T SLOW DOWN ONE BIT. WHEN WE GOT OUT OF TOWN, I LET OFF THE BRAKES AND IT CONTINUED TO GAIN SPEED UNTIL WE HIT 75 MPH. I AGAIN ENGAGED THE BRAKES, TURNED A CORNER TO GET OFF THE ROAD, AND WHEN I TURNED, THE TRUCK WENT BACK TO NORMAL. IT WAS LIKE A SWITCH WAS TURNED OFF. THE ENTIRE INCIDENT LASTED ABOUT 5 MINUTES, BUT IF WE HAD SNOW OR ICE ON THE ROAD AS IS USUAL THIS TIME OF YEAR, IT SURELY WOULD...

TRUCK HAD 13758 MILES AND A/C WOULD NOT WORK IN TEMPERATURES ABOVE 100 DEGF WHEN SITTING AT IDLE. WHILE MOVING THE SYSTEM WOULD COOL A LITTLE. INITIALLY TOOK TO ALL AMERICAN CHEVY OF MIDLAND AND THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. TOOK THE TRUCK TO A SECOND DEALERSHIP, SEWELL GMC OF MIDLAND AND THEY WERE ALSO UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I TOOK THE TRUCK BACK TO SEWELL GMC OF MIDLAND AND THEY WERE ABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM. THE FAN CLUTCH WAS REPLACED. THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPAIR IT UNDER WARRANTY SINCE IT WAS 4 MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY WITH 29599 MILES. I HAD TO PAY FOR 40% OF THE REPAIR COST DESPITE THE ISSUE FIRST OCCURING WHILE IN WARRANTY. BUT BECAUSE THE TWO DEALERSHIPS COULD NOT DIAGNOSE A BAD FAN CLUTCH I WAS STUCK WITH 40% OF THE BILL. GM CUSTOMER SERVICE INVOLVED, GAVE ME A $100 SERVICE...

TRUCK HAD 13758 MILES AND OIL WAS FOUND TO BE WEEPING FROM THE FRONT OF THE OIL PAN. TRUCK WAS TAKEN TO ALL AMERICAN CHEVY OF MIDLAND. TECH ACKNOWLEDGED THERE WAS AN OIL LEAK BUT COULD NOT FIND WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM. UV DYE WAS ADDED TO OIL AND I WAS ASKED TO COME BACK IN 2 WEEKS. AFTER 2 WEEKS I WENT BACK AND THE TECH SAID THAT BECAUSE IT WAS RAINING HE COULD NOT FIND WHERE THE LEAK WAS COMING FROM. TRUCK TAKEN TO A DIFFERENT DEALER AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND WHERE THE LEAK WAS COMING FROM. OIL LEAK REMAINS.

TRUCK HAD 29599 MILES WHEN THE ENGINE BLOCK HEATER CORD WAS REPLACED UNDER RECALL. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD THE LOW COOLANT WARNING COME UP 5 DIFFERENT TIMES. EACH TIME IT HAS COME UP I HAVE TOPPED OFF THE COOLANT. AFTER TOPPING OFF THE TIME BETWEEN SUBSEQUENT TOP OFFS VARIES BUT THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT IS CAUSING THE COOLANT TO GET LOW.
