2019 GMC SIERRA 1500 Wheels Problems

My end of year 2019 produced GMC Sierra 1500 5.3 V8, 4WD X31 4 door truck had a serious malfunction that could have caused great harm. I was driving down my driveway at approximately 20 mph when the truck's rear wheels locked up, stopping the truck instantly, sending me into the steering wheel narrowly missing the windshield with my face. After a moment, I attempted to drive again to move the truck out of the travel path. When I did, the truck back wheels completely locked up again (when I reached 6mph). I had the truck towed to my local shop and was told that it was the transmission locking up making the wheels lock up. The part (transmission) that was ordered for repair was on national backorder and took over two months to get my truck repaired and functional again. I was fortunate to have a warranty (now expired) and...

While making a righthand turn at approximately 10-15 mph, my passenger side front wheel failed at the ball joint and collapsed. Reviewing the carfax, this is the 2nd time this has happened to this vehicle (the first was on the driver side wheel). I noticed Safety Recall Report 21V-718 seems to describe the issue I'm facing with the "front upper control arm experiencing accelerated wear... leading to ball joint separation", but according to GM, since no unsatisfied recalls are shown on my VIN report, there's nothing they're willing to do. I believe the failed part number is 573. This failure left my truck sitting in the middle of the road obviously with no way to move it other than a tow truck dragging it onto his bed.

DRIVING AT ROUGHLY 3 MILES PER HOUR IN 4 WHEEL HIGH ON A GRAVEL ROAD.THE AXLE BROKE AND THE TIRE COLLAPSED. I STRONGLY BELIEVE SOMETHING IS DEFECTIVE. (MAYBE A WELD ISSUE?)

STEERING FREEZE UP ON ME SON HIT AN ELECTRIC POLE HEAD ON ROLLED OVER FEW TIMES. THE FRONT AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE LEFT BACK TIRE WAS DEPLOYED WITH THE ROTOR. THIS HAPPENED OUT OF THE CITY LIMITS COMING INTO TOWN. *TR
