And I’m assuming also because it was a known and common failure in this model vehicle."

Anonymous, TX (2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT 5.3-L V8)"Since buying new in 2014, the vehicle has experienced two separate AC failures involving failure of the Condenser (1st failure) and Compressor (2nd failure). Both failures were due to the loss of AC fluid brought about by the hoses leaking around their connection point to the AC hose connection block. The block was not changed when the Condenser failed, resulting in the failure of the compressor. None of these failures were considered by the dealer to be warranty repairs even though their failure to replace the block resulted in the failure of the Compressor."
