Recalls- Passenger airbag inflator. NHTSA recall 21V054000 affects 1,778,128 vehicles including the 2014 Sierra 3500. The non-desiccated passenger frontal airbag inflator may explode due to propellant degradation caused by long-term exposure to high humidity and temperature cycling. An inflator explosion can send metal fragments into the cabin, risking serious injury or death. GM will replace the inflator free of charge. No "Do Not Drive" advisory is issued.
- Auxiliary fuel tank sensor. NHTSA recall 17V664000 affects 35,292 trucks from 2011-2015 including the 2014 Sierra 3500. The low fuel level sensor for the front tank may stick, causing overfill that can damage the tank and leak fuel. Fuel leaks increase the risk of fire if near an ignition source. GM will replace the rear tank fuel pump or update fuel-level sensor software and inspect or replace the front tank as needed at no cost.
- Fire extinguisher malfunction. NHTSA recall 18V267000 covers 6,154 vehicles including the 2014 Sierra 3500. Certain plastic-handle or push-button Kidde fire extinguishers may clog or require excessive force to operate. The nozzle may detach suddenly, risking injury and extinguisher failure. GM instructs owners to contact Kidde for a free replacement extinguisher. No driving restrictions apply.
Owners facing repeated repairs related to safety defects or unresolved recall issues may have rights under their state’s lemon law. Consulting a legal professional is advisable for those dealing with ongoing problems after recall repairs.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:AUXILLARY TANK
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2011-2015 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 and GMC Sierra 3500 trucks equipped with dual fuel tanks. The low fuel level sensor for the front tank may stick causing the rear tank to overfill the front tank.
