Chevrolet Silverado Reviews

Buyer Beware - Worst new vehicle experience of my lifetime -Hare Chevrolet sold me a new 2023 Silverado in January of 2023. It soon became clear the infotainment system did not function properly as all sound, regardless of source, cuts out intermittently. This was a known issue at the time (as I found out later), yet I was not provided with that information and therefore unable to make an informed decision regarding the purchase. After filing a case with Chevrolet, I was eventually told that the issue was software related, that a "fix" would be written by Q3 or Q4 of 2023, and that there was nothing Chevrolet was going to do about it.

I’m more annoyed by my Silverado than the past 3 Ram trucks I’ve owned. Can’t believe they don’t have a simple fix for the radio ALWAYS defaulting to SiriusXM. Congrats GM. You lost me over stupid intentional engineering to steer membership to services I don’t want. I will gladly pay more for any truck that is not a DAILY annoyance!

On Easter Sunday March 31, 2024, my girlfriend walked outside to the 2022 Chevy Silverado LT truck and noticed the window was hit. So she ran inside and said to me that we can’t go to church because of the truck window was hit. So I came out and opened my truck door and seen the truck had an electric fire. Keep in mind the truck was turned off from 9 pm sat night until I came out Sunday morning at 7:44 am. Chevy has not called me back as I called the complaint line. Everyone told me to call them and tell them someone needs to look at the fire. The pictures are attached. If anyone has concerns or comments. Email me at **.

In 2021 Bought a new Silverado 1500 RST, Great looking truck and that's where it ends. 2023 One of the Cylinders goes (#4) - vehicle at 60000 miles. One month I was without a truck as GM did not have the parts. 8 months later now 80000 miles, transmission gone, and according to the dealer transmissions are on backorder with GM. That is 2 major engine issues with what I would say is a pretty new truck. Read online and I believe the Silverados have transmission issues, which they don't tell you about. I have owned Ford F-150, Toyota Tundra's and never had any engine issues. Stay away from Chevy

Called Chevrolet customer service because my window would not move up or down properly. The truck has less than 30,000 miles, customer service said that it was just out of warranty but Chevy would probably prorate the repair. I took the truck to Lawerence Chevrolet in Mechanicsburg Pa and they charge over $200 to look at the window and said they would work with chevy to help pay the repair. Neither chevy or Lawrence never contacted me back with repair answer. I took my truck to a repair shop and they said it was a manufacturing flaw in the window construction. First time I purchased a Chevy and they produce inferior products and do not stand behind their vehicles. Lawrence Chevrolet is also a sub-par dealership.

I purchased a new 2022 Silverado Crew cab 4x4 in June of 22 a $60,000 truck & was told there were 3 chips that were not installed due to shortage & they would be dealer installed as soon as they were available but they would give me $50.00 off each option just for my wait leading me & the dealer that they would follow shortly. After calling & complaining 1 year later they finally produced 2 of the chips & here I am 16 months later & still no third chip. All along GM has my money that I paid for those options minus the $50 they gave me (BIG DEAL). Since then they built thousands of trucks with all the chips in them. VERY POOR business GM. I have been buying new 4x4 trucks since I was 18 years old, now 63 & new GM vans for my business & after this it is very possible that this will be the last....

Chevy trucks have went from very dependable to guaranteed breakdowns. I bought new Chevy trucks in 2011, 2 in 2013 and again in 2016. My 2013 2500 Silverado fell apart at 100,000 miles. Transmission, manifold bolts, radio and cab leaking water. I traded the 2011 at 30,000 and the 2013 1500 Transmission failed at 65,000 miles. 2016 1500 Silverado Transmission failed at 74,000 miles along with radio and other electronics. They make record profits because they build junk to sell consumers. All the transmission shops I talked with said everyone should file class action lawsuits against CHEVROLET.

Purchased a brand new 2022 Chevrolet Silverado on April 4th 2023 that is equipped with a 13.4 in display screen that's associated with Google. After the 1 month trail of On Star, various items that were supposed to be included in the $60,000 plus cost of the vehicle stopped working. For example, the navigation would only work with my Iphone connected,and, the "hands free" phone system would not work without a data plan which was offered through On Star and ATT. After I broke down and purchased an ATT data plan, I discovered that you could only download APPS through Google Play which does not have many apps. In my opinion, this constitutes Collusion by forcing you to buy s data plan through a company that GM owns and then restricting the use of it by requiring you to download apps only through Google. General Motors should be ashamed for pairing up with Google or anyone else. Never buy GM products!!

My purchase has come with much regret, and nothing but wishing I could take it back and get my old truck back. First the bed was crooked and it took my dealer 7 months of being on chevy to get it fixed. Then there's the options to be retrofitted at a later date, those do not happen timely... And you'll see new vehicles popping up on the lot with the very parts you're waiting for in them. When you inquire you'll be informed about the "two tier" system, that they will tell you not to worry and they understand. All while the items you're waiting for and have already paid for are being installed in and sold in newer vehicles on the lot.

I will never buy another Chevrolet car EVER! We bought a new Chevrolet Silverado, 4 months after something went wrong with the computer in the car, the dealership couldn’t find the piece needed, no calls, no reaching out to us to inform us about the car unless we call them over and over, manager was bad, technician was worse. We were without car for two weeks and they didn’t even pay for the rental. I will make sure that every time Someone ask me for Chevrolet I’ll make them run away from them. The only person that was good was the guy that sold the car to us, other than that they are horrible. A new car and already with problems and they didn’t do nothing to help the customer.

I have been a loyal GM customer for years and even worked for them a while. I bought a 2016 Silverado and within the past couple years, I had a water leak from the antenna and the brake light. Good Chevrolet in Renton WA replaced them, but I had to remove the whole interior and carpet to put new carpet pad in it because it reeked of mold and mildew, I had to buy the pad and cut it out to fit as well. I called General Motors headquarters and they never reached back out to me after I talked to someone.

While GM Chevrolet will fix the recall defect free once parts are available, I discovered GM WILL NOT let you know when parts are available NOR provide you with a loaner vehicle. I got notified via letter in August 2021 telling me parts were currently not available, but when they were, my dealer would replace the parts at no charge to me. I was told that when parts are available, I would get another letter asking me to take my vehicle to my dealer for service.

My 2019 Silverado truck stop working out the blues. It is the fuel module, is being 5 week and they still don't know when the part will be available. They didn't not provide me with a loaner and they do rental reimbursement but I have to pay it initially. And I need the truck, this should not happen to anyone in a new truck!

Jun 2020, I purchased a brand new (6 miles) 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT Crew Cab. All was well until suddenly the transmission took a nose dive. And after 3 weeks in service, a new transmission needed to be put in. A brand new truck, with 8,000 miles and less than a year old, already having transmission issues... This does not make sense. I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around this. I just picked up the truck today, and I can already feel sharp jerking when I am coming to a stop, plus it's not accelerating well unless I push down hard on the gas. I don't feel the real issue has been taken care of, my experience has gone from good to worse over a year span.

Bought used 2014 z-71 in 2018 with 30,000 miles. Has been 3 years and been to dealer 3 times for ac, over 1,000$ each time. Replaced transfer case/3,000$. And now StabiliTrak alarm for 3rd time. They need recalls on these trucks that have all these problems. Not able to trade in right now because of finances.

shame on Chevrolet. Brake lines on my truck failed multiple times over several years. The whole system has finally been replaced. I cannot believe there are not more people stepping forward about this subject.

Forty Years had Chevrolet vehicles but will now recommend and purchase different. Dealership was Al Serra Chevrolet but last year now Mike Maroone. Very very poor communication and customer service when car being repaired. I had just purchase a new 2020 Z71 Silverado in January. Day 1 picking up truck (broken center arm) rest console took multiple trips to dealership. Next week 2nd, 3rd, and 4th trip back to dealership to have my tint package and Weathertech mats installed. Wrong rear floor mat ordered and waited another week. They called. Told me mat was in.

I currently own a 2018 Chevy Silverado with 15k miles. I noticed at about 12k miles that the tire tread starting coming apart. I do not ride off road or on dirt roads of any kind. I went to my local Chevy dealer and got a little run around there. I reached out to Chevy customer affairs department. I spoke with Destiny who was very robotic and short. After a week of back and forth I was told that my tires would not be a covered item. I do not understand how my Goodyear Wrangler tires coming apart at 12k miles are not covered. I also do not recommend dealing with Chevy customer affairs.

Horrible experience with a Duramax 2500. Kept going into limp mode. Never buy one. I wasted 20k on this junk truck. It stranded me in Nebraska so I left it. 130k miles. 50k truck. Disgraceful for Chevy.

I bought my truck in 2017. It is a 2015 Slate gray LTZ. Looked over it thoroughly before buying it. It had a couple of dings in the hood but that's it. About a year ago the paint on both rear doors in the same spots started to bubble. I'm sure this is due to contamination on the primer before the outer layer of paint was applied. I called customer service to have them take a look at it. The guy said it was out of warranty. The undercoat was contaminated before painting. What does mileage have to do with a crappy paint job. I'm the second owner, (not the point). Nevertheless they will not take care of their screw up. The customer service agent was a jerk. Nothing I can do due to the mileage says the rep. It would seem like a company should stand behind their product no matter the mileage if it was a screw up on their part. ** Chevrolet your painting department sucks, as well as the customer service department.

I purchased a brand new 2019 Chevy Silverado High Country from Champion Chevrolet (Reno, NV) in October 2019. After two months, the ABS brakes malfunctioned four times in four weeks. Despite keeping impeccable service records, notes and diagnostic reports as well as Nevada's Attorney General (Consumer Protection Department) hearing my case and interceding on my behalf, General Motors and Champion Chevrolet continue to drag their feet. I understand not every vehicle can be perfect; however, my concerns aren't for a faulty headlight or leaking radiator, but rather the most important safety system in a vehicle. So as General Motors continues to "work through their red tape" I will continue to drive through two school zones on a daily basis praying my truck will stop.

2017 Silverado 1500. The wiring that leads to the fuel pump corroded causing the vehicle to fail as I was driving down a busy road. This occurred on January 30, 2020. The vehicle was purchased on January 20, 2017 and had less than 33,000 miles. Dealership calls and says it is not covered under any warranty provided by GM and offers no help in appealing. 10 days outside of the bumper to bumper they say. I call a 1-800 number provided to start the appeal process. Eventually the dealer gets back to me and says, "You get $367 but the cost of repairs was $475."

We purchased a new 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD. We took delivery on November 27, 2019. This truck was ordered with navigation, we paid for navigation. Well apparently Chevy did not include the chip. This is the story from the dealer. We have called Chevrolet and the dealership countless times. Asking for the navigation chip to be installed. Well to date we have no navigation system. My husband buys a new Chevy truck every year. He is an endless customer to Chevrolet. Maybe it is time to reconsider.

2017 Chevrolet Silverado LT. It offers two potent V8 engines, has excellent towing capacity, and features an upscale cabin with user-friendly technology, it has exceptional gas mileage. It's roomy, it also has a 18 inch wheel package or a 20 inch wheel package.

I bought the 2018 Silverado 1500 LT brand new with 8 miles on it. Soon after I took delivery, I noticed a substantial vibration which came through the steering wheel and seats when exceeding 60 mph. I thought that it might have been a wheel balance issue so I took it in for service around 3,000 miles. The dealer performed a road-force-balance on the wheels and claimed all was fixed. I drove for another 3,000 miles, few of them on the freeway, but still noticed the same vibration at speeds over 60 mph. I took it back to the dealer and told them that there was something else wrong...don't road-force-balance the wheels. They did the same balance as before with no change.

I've owned 3 Silverado's now, been driving one every day since 2011. My 2012 motor blew up at 76k, left me stranded 3 times for bad plugs and bad valve cover. 2017, bad shutter from day 1, never fixed the problem, dealership had it for over 60 days and didn't even touch it. Finally got rid of it and bought a 2020 High Country with the 6.2l 3 weeks ago and with only 1200 miles on it, it has a very rough idle, RPMs jump up and down, now a ticking lifter sound appeared. Truck shudders too. Won't be long before this motor blows up too. Not to mention the paint is so weak that there are dozens of chips all over it and clear coat factory blemishes when it had 14 miles on it. Unreal! Last GM product I'll ever buy.

I love my Chevy Silverado Pick up truck. It is 20 years old and kicking just like it did when I bought it new. It seats 5 people comfortably. I can haul anything I want. A few things are going wrong i.e. the wear and tear of the seats, lights going out on the dash but other than that - keeping the engine in good shape, the oil being changed regularly, this bad boy is driving just as great as the day I bought it!

I have a 96 Silverado. I have owned all of mine since new. I would like a new truck to get better fuel efficiency, but they have become too expensive & complicated. We need to return to the days of SIMPLE, HIGH QUALITY. We need simple high quality, not a lot of bells & whistles & gizmos, just simple extremely high quality & fuel efficiency. Otherwise, I love my 96. It has been generally trouble free for all these years. It is nice, it is simple, & I think the quality is there.

I purchased a brand new Chevy 2500 truck from Halls Chevrolet on 9/21. The truck had 47 miles on it at the time of purchase. I detailed the truck on 9/22 and noticed the rust on the undercarriage of the truck. I sent pictures to the dealership on 9/23 of the rust. They agreed it was excessive rust. I went back on 9/28 to exchange the truck with one of 2 they had available according to the general manager. When I got there they did not have any white trucks available after telling me that they did. They had a black truck that they said I could exchange with my white truck.

I bought my son a new 2019 Silverado. We have had nothing but problems. This latest repair the truck has been going on 2 month and still not fixed. The dealership blames GM. GM senior advisor won’t return my calls.

Paid over $52k for brand new Silverado 1500 (2017 purchased in October 2016). Within 2 years I started getting "reduced engine power" warning that lead to flashing check engine light. Dealer quoted over $1800 to replace all fuel injectors. Said they were misfiring and didn't know why. They said to contact GM and see if they would help cover the repairs. They said go back to the dealer and ask for "customer experience expert" and ask for a new quote (a lower quote). They checked again and said I actually only need 2 injectors replaced but it was still over $1100.

I bought a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado and a week later notice that the front fender plastic flares paint do not match. I took truck to dealership for inspection and they said I had to call GM for repair approval. I call GM and they send me back to dealership for another inspection and same thing. Dealership said that they needed approval from GM for repair. I call GM and their representative said paint was normal so I had to get BBB involved and here we go again. GM call me and set up appointment for a second time and here I am. GM said paint is normal. Dealership agrees with me that paint does not match!! Very bad customer service from GM. I’m very frustrated and unsatisfied customer. Been a very loyal customer but after this experience I have a different perspective!!!!

Everyone of used Chevy truck I have looked at are rusted away late as 2005 and probably later, how did you not recall these trucks for frame damage most so bad you have 10,000 of people driving around in death traps and some, who have no mechanical experience, are clueless that three brake line, and frames are and have rusted away, do how did GM get away with this and Toyota had to recall fix or treat or replace in some cases 2001 2004 Tundras. I owned one. You all wonder why nobody trust American car manufacturer. Wonder how many people have been hurt or killed over this. Truck I just bought 2500 HD Silverado, brakes line blew, luckily for me I was just pulling into the subdivision after driving 20 miles on the highway, it would have happened in traffic or on highway I could have hurt or killed someone, so tell me what you have to do to get GM to do what they should have done a long time ago and why didn't Toyota get away with it. USA

I purchase a 2018 2500hd Silverado Duramax. Had problems from the get go. Spent over a month in the shop within 2-3 months due to electrical issues. Now it’s back in the shop with oil leaks from the charge pipe off the intercooler and Chevrolet says that is normal! I called customer support at Chevy headquarters. Same thing. Normal. I would not recommend Chevrolet to anyone. Customer service has gone way downhill just like the products they're selling.

I have purchased a total of 8 Chevrolet in the last 10 years. I currently own a 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 z71 LTZ Midnight edition. Transmission went out at 72k. Dealer fixed it and said the sending pump went out to include, had lot of metal in the fluid which they drained and replaced. Truck ran another 70k miles and transmission is out again. Dealer stated that, "I knew a new transmission and would be $6300 total to replace". I asked why Chevrolet would not back their product when it had to be fixed at 72k. They said not covered. I of course like anyone with internet started doing research, found out that Chevy has basically replaced the current transmission several times trying to fix the wide issue they are having with it include the Cadillac's, Tahoe's, Silverado's and etc. Then come to find out the 2014 Chevy Silverado's had a bad vibration traveling speeds between 55-75mph, of course no one could figure out why it vibrated so bad.

I own an 02 Silverado. It’s an extended cab Z71 with the 5.3L V8. 172k miles in and this truck is running as strong as ever! It’s my daily driver and I have had no troubles at all, just routine maintenance. The exterior looks beautiful and the interior is spacious and comfortable. My Silverado seats six comfortably. The controls are all simple and easily accessible. The V8 engine has a serious kick to it for passing other vehicles. The limited slip rear diff does it’s job. The ride is smooth and rides well. Easily customizable, I have added a Line-X spray in bedliner, Flowmaster exhaust with dual outlets and tips, K & N Air Filter, smoked out lenses and some interior touches including a new stereo with Bluetooth and Chevy logo steering wheel cover and rubber floor mats. IMHO, the 99-02 Silverado is the best looking truck ever produced! The General got everything right on this bad boy!

We own a Chevy Silverado LTZ. There is not enough characters in this review to let me tell you what is all been wrong with it. Let’s just say even the motor has blown up. But the Chevrolet headquarters has been a nightmare to deal with. They don’t return your calls in a timely manner. They are not helpful. We have gone for almost a month without a vehicle and nobody seems to care. Not to mention all of the bills that have racked up on this vehicle vehicle. And yes we did buy the vehicle brand new so it is only a 2017. And the service has been horrible at the Chevrolet headquarters!!

I purchased a 2015 Silverado LTZ brand new. Since I've owned the truck I've had issues with poor acceleration and with the transmission being jerky. I took it to the same dealer I bought it from hoping they would stand behind their product. Instead they gave me the runaround and told me they could not find anything wrong with it even though it's obvious. The problem continued so I contacted Chevrolet Customer Assistance. They suggested I take it to another dealer. However, they also said nothing was wrong with it. Most likely it was because I was just trying to accelerate in-between shift points and that was causing the lack of acceleration and/or jerky feeling. I did some research, talked to non GM mechanics and a couple friends that own 2015-2016 Silverados. They had all experienced similar issues. I never could get Chevy to admit there was an issue though or take care of the problem. I just learned to live with it.

I bought my 2018 Silverado Ltz with sport pkg. crew cab dually. I have 28,000 miles and it has been in for repairs regularly, the most recent it had check engine light on and it has been in shop for over a month. After several attempts to blame me for not using proper tier one fuel they found out there was a recall on injectors. I asked, "Why didn’t I get notifications on the recall." Their reply was, "You have to specify that you think the injectors are bad before they will tell you of recall." I have bought 6 new vehicles from the same Chevy dealer in past nine yrs. This is my last Chevy. I have lost faith in service.

Our company purchased a 2017 Silverado brand new for my company vehicle. Twice I had it in the shop at two different dealers and discussed the transmission issue of being jerky. Both times I was informed that the dealers could not find any issues that were the basis of my complaint. Well this past weekend out of town the transmission started jumping in and out of gear and then it would no longer engage any longer and I was left broken down 200 miles from home. The dealer is telling me it is no longer under any warranty at 91,000 miles and it will be our responsibility to cover all repairs. If anyone who has a similar experience and is told they can't find an issue please fight the dealer as much as you can because there are certainly issues that I know Chevy is aware of. They just hope to pass the repair bill for the 8 speed issues back to you at a later date.

Bought truck brand new. After owning it for 3 months, tried to use the 4x4 and it doesn’t work. Put it in the shop, after numerous unanswered questions, no return calls, being put on hold for no one to pick up the phone, after finally talking to service asst manager she gives me her cell number to contact her directly. Still no answers. Basically she sugar coats things to keep us from losing it. Excuses: this tech & that tech is out sick, waiting on manufacturer's approval. Parts ordered etc. 4 weeks later, after threatening them with a lawyer and BBB, truck has been test driven is fixed & ready for pick up. Drove there in a horrible rain/hail storm, get in the truck, 4x4 still doesn’t work.

I AM ONE OF THOUSANDS THAT'S HAVING CONDENSER ISSUES, AND GM HAS YET TO FILE A RECALL!!! NEVER AGAIN WILL I BUY A CHEVY!!! Nobody is able to help me with this issue. I will not pay 1200 to fix this issue.

Ok. First off, I'm a good barometre, because mine is a company truck, like a free one. Silverado 1500 Z71, off road. 2017. All the options but leather and passenger power seat. So here is the deal... It's not a "truck", it's not designed for "off road". It's a big car with a truck bed in the back. Here are the issues. Ride, wow quiet. Great on the interstate, just like a good old family car should be. Off road? Rough road? A joke. This thing to spite the "off road" logo is as spongy as grandmas 1986 Buick Electra. It is essentially an all wheel drive car. Incapable of not destroying the front bottom air damn at the slightest rough road conditions. It's a 4 bounce suspension off road, incapable of controlling the front end in off road conditions. "You are going too fast" you are saying to yourself. Naa, I'm talking at CRAWLING speed. In short this is not a 4by4 you want to take out anywhere but a paved road with 4" of snow.

I bought a 2018 Silverado Z71 last summer and it now has 12K miles on it. I honestly wish I never bought the truck! Sticker price was 55K and I have had it in service 4 times because of the transmission. I have opened 2 cases with Chevy and have been told the problem is known and the operation of the transmission "is as designed." I can't believe the 8 speed transmission was designed to consistently/intermittently surge, hard shift, kick, and make loud bangs on occasion. I hate this transmission... I'm embarrassed to have people in my new truck and can't wait to get rid of the truck.

I had a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado Base 4.3 Vortec V6. Mine was the work truck with the chrome appearance package and the upgraded seats and carpet no, PWR windows. Was a good truck, purchased in 2011 with 45000 miles on it, sold it with 130000 in 2013. Drove it to San Antonio many times. Got 23mpg. cheap on parts. The only issues he had were the HVAC controls, the fan speed selector wouldn't work on 4 and 2 which was due to a module under the dash. Worked fine after buying the 65 dollar part, then a year later 3 stopped this time it was the harness to the module with was 50 bucks and easy to replace, had to replace the brake pads, and ball joints at 120000 miles, the intake gasket was leaking and it needs ignition coils at 115000 miles, the intake gasket is a common issue on Chevrolets of this era. Was a great truck. Served me well plus when I was in high school I put a Flowmaster 40 on it. Most people thought it was an 8 cylinder.

I bought a 2017 Silverado about 8 months ago. Since then, averaging at least monthly, my truck has been at the dealership for service and I've been in a rental car. I've spent more time in a rental than I have in my truck that I've spent thousands in bbn purchasing. Whomever is in charge of QA on what rolls off their line... Needs to be fired. I have brought this up to GM Corporate and of course the only solution was that they give me a service voucher since obviously my truck will be back next month. Never I had such an issue with a Chevy product until now. NEVER will I purchase another and will discourage others. Save your money and get a Ford. At least there you know what you are getting!

I bought a Chevy Silverado 1500 Quadrasteer and I love it. I always am having it service to make sure I don't break down like keeping up with the oil and stuff, keeping it washed and waxed. I just now got 1000+ miles on it. Just seen today there is a hole in my bed. Like it's bad enough I can't find shocks for it but now this. I believe in you take care of something it will take care of you. I've never had any issue with my truck cause it's all about keeping up with the service on it. Now I have this.

Purchased new 2014 Silverado 4 X 4. Has only 14000 miles. 4 wheel drive quit working, and even though drive train is under warranty, Chevy refuses to touch it without first charging a "diagnosis fee". GM does not stand by their product or uphold their warranty. Paid extra $6000 for 4WD that doesn't even work! Rude customer service at GM. CSR was rude and unprofessional, and hung up on me when I asked to speak to a supervisor. Dealership blames GM, GM blames dealership, no one claims responsibility, they just want more money to cover their existing warranty.

Love the truck BUT it has 4200 miles on it and if it sits 3 days in cold weather it will either not start or if it will the reduced engine power comes on. Really, this is 2nd winter, I make sure to turn everything off. Really leery to drive it as it may not start. I am a 65 yr old female that lives in a very rural area. So disappointed.

I bought my 2013 Silverado 1500 series new. I bought a warranty for an additional $3100.00. Currently my vehicle is at 147000 km and the warranty ran out March of this year. Suddenly my Transmission has failed, my vehicle is not drivable, and currently sits at a dealership. After 4 weeks of waiting and numerous calls to GM and the dealer GM has determined it is wear and tear on the transmission. GM has refused to investigate into why the transmission failed. The dealer removed the dip stick and found shavings on the end of the dip stick and feels that something within the transmission itself is faulty but cannot proceed without GM's approval. The dealer is offering a 25% discount on the purchase of a new transmission and GM feels this is a very fair offer.

My wife and I bought a brand new 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 4x4 in October of 2014. The truck was our dream truck and we forked out 50k to get all the bells and whistles. We believed in Chevys motto "Find New Roads" So we did just that. We traveled across the United States in our brand new truck. Here is the summary of things that happened. Left rear tire had been previously repaired at the dealer prior to our purchase. Tire blew in the middle of nowhere Texas. Rain leaked in and flooded the cabin in Arkansas... Dealer fixed and said the found a pinhole by the windshield.

My 2018 Silverado 1500 LT Z71 is approximately 3 months old with 5,000 miles. The vehicle was sluggish to start but eventually turned over on Sunday 11/4/18. The next day, Monday 11/5/18, the vehicle had full electrical power but wouldn't turn over. Vehicle was towed to the dealership it was purchased from and I was told it was a bad fuel pump which was replaced under warranty. On Wednesday 11/7/18, I was driving my vehicle to work and while on the highway my engine died. I had complete electrical power but no ability to accelerate. Nothing makes you pucker up like cars coming up on you at 70 miles an hour and you can't accelerate. I was very fortunate that I was not rear ended and that my children were not in the vehicle as I sometimes drop them off at daycare in the morning. I was able to get to the shoulder of the road where the vehicle wouldn't start.

DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM CHEVY/GMC!!! I’m backing down my driveway at 5:30 am (which is on a hill) and to my surprise my brake pedal won’t budge. I roll all the way down my driveway into my neighbor’s yard until my emergency brake finally stops me. There is a TSB bulletin about this issue which involves 4 parts and costs $2000. Chevy is well aware of this issue. When I called the customer service line all they wanted to talk about is a warranty which only goes to 36000 miles. My truck is a well maintained 77,000 miles. By the way this particular TSB is not only for Silverados, but for Suburbans, Escalades, and MANY others. The bottom line is there is a braking system failure which Chevy knows about but is unwilling to do anything about. I remember now why I quit buying from this awful company, I’m going back to a Tundra.

I don’t get why this issue is not more public, I bought 2018 Silverado Special Edition $70K which also vibrates. In 4WD or AWD from 90 and up is not driveable. GM solution is to just not drive in AWD highway speeds. I Live in CANADA so that’s a joke on me then. It sits in my driveway. Other than that great truck. My 2012 2500 HD is a dream to drive so I use that hoping for a fix. This should be a much more public issue.

I bought a brand new 2016 Chevy Silverado and right away noticed the paint chipping off on all sides, up on top of hood, on the front and sides. Ridiculous. Called dealer and they said that wasn't covered. Now I have owned it for 2 years and I stopped at a store to park and the steering stiffened and lost my brakes. They are saying it's a vacuum. Had to tow it. And my transmission also seems confused when I step hard on gas. Sometimes it jumps forward into gear in traffic. Not too happy...

I have a 2017 Chevy Silverado. I love the look and the way it drives but there is this one problem that seems like Chevy can't figure it out. GMC is aware of it but seems like they just want to brush it under the rug kind of deal. But anyways my truck just made a year in May and I DID a full service rotate tires and also oil change. Drove it home and a few days later my driver side wheel area makes this annoying ticking sound every time I make right sharp turns like example pulling in to my parking stall. The ticking sounds gets louder the more you drive it. I have took it to Chevy multiple times. At first they thought it was the hug nut. Nope. That got replaced and still got the ticking sound. Then GMC said Cutter Chevy stripped the inside of my rim where the bolts go and that was a no go. Replaced all 4 rims and she still makes that ticking sound.

Leasing a 2017 Silverado with the 5.3 with fuel management. When I first got it I noticed that the truck seemed confused at times as into what gear it should of been in which made the truck shift hard. If I try to pass a vehicle when I'm going approximately 30 mph and slam on the gas the truck seems like it gasps for air. Took it to the dealer they said it was normal, called Chevy and they told me they had never heard of such a thing. Hard to believe since I found a bunch of blogs about the same issue.

This was my favorite truck. If I had gotten a v8 I would still have it today. In fact the only reason I sold it was because I got a phenomenal lease deal on a Sierra Denali. I put 46k on this truck driving for work in Houston, and it ran great. I got the v6 version because it got better fuel mileage ratings than the V8, and I would routinely get 24 to 26mpg. The paint on this truck chipped easily. The engine had pretty noticeable lifter ticking but that never seemed to affect its function. The exterior design of the 14 and 15 Silverados is beautiful and reminiscent of the ones made in the mid 80s. The 14 and up trucks are well finished on the inside and use durable materials. They are also very quiet while driving.

I bought a brand new 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500 that’s black. The paint chips easily, is checking out, and look like it’s gonna bubble on the hood. Checking out thru out the vehicle. It’s always been garaged when not in use. Took it to the local Lithia and it didn’t sound would do much since it’s past 36000 miles. The truck now has 48000. In my opinion since the truck is only three years old it shouldn’t be doing this. Probably won’t by Chevy now again.

I have a 2016 Chevy Silverado that just past paint warranty. Just bought this truck and noticed on the roof the paint is bubbling and corroding. Called GM. They did not want to cover all of it. This is very poor craftsmanship. Their corrosion warranty in fine detail means it has to be rusted through. What a joke. I understand that these are mass produced but at least take care of the customer within reasonable matter. GM has had nothing but issues with their paint, going off consumer reviews. I have owned these pickups my whole life, and can't believe they don't stand behind their work.

Just like thousands of other customers, the a/c condenser just leaked out all my refrigerant. It’s a new truck (2015 Silverado). The shop wants too much to fix it. I’m pulled over on the side of the road in a thunderstorm because the windows will not unfog. My child has asthma and it is 88 degrees in the car. There have also been other recalls to include seatbelt and tow hitch. I will never buy another Silverado and I am spreading this message all over social media since Chevrolet does not want to address all of us loyal customers. I am going to CarMax to get a Ford.

I love the Chevy Silverado! I wanted it because of the room it had. I could haul things plus it had the extended cab so I would still be able to take my grandchildren if necessary. It also was a 1500 series made without carpet which I loved so spills would not be soaked into any carpet. If I had to improve anything it would be to put a better heater button in the truck. I have had mine replaced and it only lasted a few weeks and had stopped working again.

It's a useful work-horse vehicle with a sharp appearance, decent mileage and wonderful technology. The steering controls make it easy to quickly flip through the menu to access information like gas mileage or even phone contacts (when stuck) and it pulls the trailer like a dream. I like the features especially the technology. One minor feature are the dual climate controls which is really great especially when on a long drive! Easy to drive, comfortable, nice looking. Also, my husband is a Chevy man and wouldn't really consider anything else. I really love the backup camera and Bluetooth features! Very accommodating and nice Dealership too. On the downside, I don't care for the stereo system which I find unwieldy to use easily.

Smooth ride and enough room for everyone. It hauls everything we need easily and has a good tow package. It also looks very inviting and pretty then its interior is very spacious and easy to clean. And it has good gas mileage. But maybe it could come with running boards as factory item already on it. Otherwise, very good and would purchase again.

The Chevrolet Silverado is very roomy. This is a crew cab truck and has extra room in both the front and back seats, which is one of the reasons we purchased it. It has great miles per gallon and it handles very well while driving it. I like that it has a backup camera on the screen. It is very comfortable to ride in. You can answer your phone or make phone calls thru the dashboard screen. Also, we liked the style and color of the vehicle. It has everything on it that I want in a vehicle.

I am the owner of a 2002 Chevy Silverado pickup truck with 136,000 miles. While driving through town in the morning rush hour traffic I pulled off at gas station. I went in for a few items, got back in my truck and was going to pull back out into traffic when the brake pedal went to the floor. I had to ease my way over to the side of the drive. Got out of the truck and found brake fluid leaking from underneath. I had the truck towed to a local garage. They found the brake line under the driver side had completely rusted through and also found several more rusted areas in the line. Cost to install new brake lines $472.00 plus a tow bill. Luckily it happened when I wasn’t in traffic. I would have definitely rear ended someone.

The truck drives well to any destination and pulls well. It's a nice looking truck and my husband loves the vehicle. We adore it. It is an extremely reliable vehicle that helps us reach our desired destination. I like the parking assist and the beauty of the vehicle plus the color and the style of the vehicle and its utility. But the upholstery is poor quality. The paint scratches easily so we have to be careful with it. Better paint and upholstery would be better. It tore not long after we owned it and it was hard to get the dealership to fix it.

We only buy Chevrolet and our truck is a 2008 model. It came with a tow package which was a must for our camper. The heated seats are important for us due to back problems. It doesn't set up too high so it's easy for me and my elderly aunt to get in and out of it. Other than changing oil and small maintenance we have never had any trouble with it. It's decent on gas, rides great, has power windows, power steering, and four wheel drive. Excellent in the snow. However, I wish the seats reclined a little more. My husband would like to have a soft shell tonto cover instead of the hard casing. The automatic door locks are nice but the passenger lock is broken and makes a loud noise.

Chevy trucks are great. I had a Ford truck once and it was great too, but this one had all the features I wanted so I bought it. I like the radio flicker on the steaming wheel and I chose the truck because it was on the lot with features I like. I love that it had included up high on the top on star thing and it was really handy and I used it all the time. But, then a terrible thing happened, they took it out after a year because it wasn't free after that. Running boards are junk and I would of course, change those out immediately, but unfortunately, I can't do that immediately because the truck is already so expensive. I can't afford to change them out.

I like my 2000 Chevrolet Silverado purchased in 2011. It handles well, a nice smooth ride & I like the height to see better than you can in a car. I like the color and the push button 4 wheel drive. I love the 4 wheel drive for winter weather. It is great for hauling groceries & garage saleing, I like the extended cab far more than I could have imagined. However, I don't like the repair cost on 4 wheel drive, it seems a bit expensive yet cheaper than replacing. It is a gas hog but effective for my area which is very rural and in the winter town is a long way & generally a nasty drive.

The 2013 Chevy Silverado is a very comfortable riding truck for highway or long trips. This truck includes a back seat for additional storage or passengers the truck bed allows space for moving or picking up of items for your home. It sits up higher than your average auto and this makes for better vision while traveling. Because this truck is higher sitting in the event of flying objects while traveling at higher speeds on the highway it allows room for the object to miss hitting the front windshield. When I purchased it in 2013 I wish I had the running boards installed on the vehicle. This would make getting in and out of the truck easier for me since I am short.

My experience with the Silverado 2500HD is great. It is a well rounded vehicle that has all the features we need. It is perfect for our recreational needs as well as our pets. The main reason for the purchase is because it's a diesel and then the fact that it has a large interior crew cab. The length of the standard bed is good for loading up all of our gear. And it being a 4x4 was a must. I love everything about the truck. I'm sure my husband would love to improve some performance items to help the truck run more efficiently. But otherwise, we are very happy with it.

I have a 2014 Silverado 1500 LT 4X4 with All Star package. I never had remorse for buying this truck. I saved for years to buy a truck and drove beaters till I saved enough. I wanted this truck when it hit the market and I had enough saved so I got one. I have a bad shake above 65-70 mph that was not apparent during my test drive where highway driving was done and wasn't noticed till I went on a 65 mph highway trying to do 70 mph after purchase. 98% of highways are 55 mph around here. When I have to travel the faster highways here, some days 65 is all I can get and some it will be fine up to 70 and then it can get rather violent. If I have a beverage that is open top like a can, it will spill all over the place at 70 mph if left in cup holder. If 70 mph is what all the traffic is travelling, I can just barely keep up some days and others I seem to be a nuisance to others switching lanes getting around me in slow lane.

Purchased two brand new Silverados in August 2016: one is great - But the High Country has had the motor replaced at 100,000 km after numerous arguments with dealership and "unfortunate" road experiences... now, after 125,000 km injectors need replacement, wire- corrosion needs replacement!! Vehicle motor shuts down while driving in the road. I paid $70,000 for this vehicle and GM won't warranty these replacements! After 40 years of solid GM loyalty I am letting this "Lemon" go, and moving to another manufacturer - one which can produce with reliability and with some business ethics. BUYERS BEWARE!!! Zero concern from GM about your safety or your pocketbook!

Bought the 2009 Chevy Silverado 5.3 V8 truck 7 months ago with 88000 miles on it. Purchased a 6 month warranty from dealer. Lo and behold this week the truck started missing and knocking with a cylinder 1 misfire code. Took to shop, failed lifter in number 1 cylinder due to faulty DOD. Getting a new engine to the tune of 7000 dollars. Chevy knows about this issue and it's well documented. Truck only has 95000 miles on it and the needs a new engine. Never again Chevy.

I bought a 2013 Chevy Silverado 1500 5.3 4x4 back in November of 2017. 3 months ago I’ve noticed my truck run rich on fuel. Seems like it’s lost some power. Also when truck goes into Econ 4 it loses power bad. Like if it’s real heavy Idk. Anybody with the same issue or can give me an advice on what to do? Any advice would really help.

I love 2012 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD crew cab long box truck. I have 135,125 miles 1 trip to dealer for oxygen sensor and 1 glow plug at 92725 miles. Great MPG on trips and local. Pulls anything and wife likes to ride in it.

So shocked! BUYER BEWARE. I PURCHASED A NEW 2017 SILVERADO and when I come to a stop the gas slushes so bad that at times it sounds like I am being bumped from behind by another vehicle. I took the truck back- the service manager said, "So sorry- NOTHING can be done because there is no recall." He gave me a print out that states the 2016, 2017 and NOW THE 2018s. So BUYER BEWARE… GM KNOWS they are selling a vehicle that has a defect… This is wrong and very very deceptive. It is a 34 gallon tank and the first 17 GALLONS make the thumping noise… No more GM for me. Dealerships should be held accountable to make this known to the buyer BEFORE SELLING IT.

2016 Chevy Silverado - lack of power and 5.3 engine has fuel management system that goes from 8 cyl. To 4 automatically. Any time it is in 4 cyl. Mode It vibrates and transmission shudders. I brought back to dealership 4 times and they keep telling me that's the way it was designed. Contacted GM and were useless. Told me to take it to dealership and they would have someone there, never happened. Very unhappy. GM customer service was terrible.

Owned Chevy Silverado truck over 6 years and I change the oil every 3000 miles with synthetic. No issues whatsoever. The truck is a beast and Chevy is the way to go. Looking to buy another.

This pickup, Chevy Silverado 3/4 ton pickup, is a working truck that is all steel, long bed and is a 1998! Would not trade it for any of the new garbage on the market today! It's AWESOME!!

The Chevy Silverado does all that is expected. Great mileage for a truck and NEVER a repair. Best vehicle I have ever had in 45 years, will not consider others after having 2 of them (18 years).

Chevrolet Silverado 2011, still running strong. Great motor, 5.3 liter, positive traction rear end, smooth riding, well built, decent mileage, and pulls my trailers with no problems.

I have over 100,000 miles on my Chevy Silverado and it is running perfectly. I have always kept up on the routine maintenance and oil changes. Great truck and I would buy another Silverado in the future!

In January of 2016 I traded my 2013 Chevy Silverado that had 106,000 on it for a brand new, 8 miles on it 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500 all star addition with a 5.3L. As of 4/16/18 it has 87,000 on it. It has been a wonderful machine. It's a everyday work truck/daily driver. Haul equipment and going to see customers. Keep the truck looking excellent and had maintenance performed per what the book says. The only problem I keep having to this day is that the trailer plug and brake control don't always seem to connect with each other at times. Sometimes the lights work and no brakes or the other way around. I know it is not the trailer because on my old trailer had the electrical system gone through and also just got a new EBY car hauler and am still having the same problem.

My 2016 Silverado has this Chevy shake. Where the whole cabin just vibrates like crazy around 65-75, brought it to my dealer and all they said it needed to be balanced. Doors won't unlock at random times. Battery leaving me stranded. When I took it to my dealer they said it was the alternator. And random noises when on the freeway and over bumps. Like REALLY! Truck is almost Brand new to have so many issues. And be paying 150 bucks for every diagnosis they perform. I'm done with Chevrolet for good.

Took my 2011 Silverado truck in for repairs for the second time in 2 years for same problem. #1 spark plug bad which they said was caused by excessive oil. Just had oil changed. I was told to drive truck when I get it back for oil consumption, that way they can contact GM about problem. Truck has only 73,000 miles and is in great shape. I will not buy another Chevy pick up again. The dash cracked under warranty and when I went to pick it up they had broke the windshield and I needed it replaced. Just got the phone call from dealer. I need to redo pistons and rings on truck and GM will not help in any way. That sealed the deal on why I will not buy another GM product.

I bought my 2017 Silverado in May. Utterly been a giant P.O.S. Severe shutter in transmission. Replaced torque converter... Then TCM. Still has a shutter/misfire feeling under load or cruising only in v8 mode. They said it was the gas. Changed gas stations. Went 8 different gas stations and 2200 miles... Still has misfire feeling dropped back off. 8 days later they said motor mounts was the cause. Wrong again. They did a tune up. Wrong again. WHAT'S NEXT. 6889 current miles. This truck gets TERRIBLE fuel mileage. Averages 10.3 mpg. If you tow something as simple as a 4wheeler it's even worse. They said it was buyer's remorse. Note I work for this dealership as a mechanic. Told boss keys are in it. He can drive it. Wish I kept my 245000 mile 05 F150. At least I knew that was worn out. If this is the best they got... Chevy is in trouble.

2011 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 52,976 miles. I am original owner and vehicle is well cared for. Had gas odor and dripping, as well as hesitation in starting. Vehicle was taken to and serviced at Whiteman Chevrolet in Glens Falls, NY. Their diagnosis was fuel pump rotted and leaking, and fittings rotted into plastic lines. They replaced fuel pump, lock ring, level sensor, and both lines off fuel pump. Total cost was $1318.11. When questioned how this could happen on a well cared for newish vehicle, their answer was corrosion from weather and road salt. I filed a complaint with GM Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center. They assigned a case number and advisor to investigate.

I bought a Chevy Silverado 2013 and it's been a nightmare. First the door handle on right side broke. I find out it’s cheap plastic. After that the left side molding comes off and the right side molding is about to come off too. Unbelievable!?? Then the plastic knobs for my AC are fading. I will never buy a Chevy truck ever again. What a disappointment???

I have owned this truck for over 10 years. I am very disappointed in the brakes. I have had to replace all the brake line from rust. The master cylinder has been replaced and the truck still does not stop. I hit a car and now my wife will not drive it. It is very unsafe. You can't get the anti-lock brakes to kick in. The truck keeps rolling. It is very scary feeling not being able to stop. The last time I hit the brakes hard the stuff in the back seat stayed on the seat and did not hit the floor. Please fix the brakes.

DO NOT BUY 2017 CHEVY SILVERADO DIESEL. GM has the worst customer service I have ever seen. The engine has been replaced in my truck after a few thousand miles. Then they say “just keep driving it.” They want the warranty to expire. They never have a loaner vehicle. They have reprogrammed the truck & transmission 4-5 times now. It still shifts really hard. It loses power now under a light load, I have had the mirrors replaced because of condensation, the turbo has went out, the truck pulls hard left & it wasn’t ever duplicated until 30,000 miles & now they are blaming the tires. It’s a total joke dealing with this company. My truck has been in the shop for over 45 days & no one seems to care. My 4 wheel drive has quit working, the gauges I’m told are indicators & I should disregard them unless a light is also on.

I have A 2017 Chevy Silverado 6.2 L with 9000 miles on it, my truck seems to hesitate at various speeds, almost like it’s confused. It tends to lose power, hesitate, then kick in while accelerating from a rolling stop or when I’m aggressive on the gas pedal, all within a sec or 2. I’m also hearing a ticking sound from the engine when accelerating, and a loud clunk when I come to a stop. I was told the loud clunk could be the fuel in the fuel tank, the ticking could be a loud fuel pump, because of the night pressure it runs at, and they could not recreate the hesitation. Not happy with the service from Chevy.

I have a 2014 Silverado High Country. 2 1/2 weeks ago my engine failed on my way to work. It came up as P0300 error code. Now I am finding out there is a bulletin with GM/Chevy bulletin 15-06-01-002E. I was very lucky to not be in a major accident due to this. I have asked 2 questions of GM/Chevy and have not gotten answers. I wanted to know what this will do to trade in value, and I want to get an extended warranty on this engine. Neither have been answered. They replaced the Lifters, the manifold and gaskets. The Cylinder 7 fuel lifter had failed. I keep getting the run around. I have 77,000 miles on this vehicle and am VERY concerned that this engine will fail again and I will be stuck with a very expensive bill. I have a person at work with the same exact vehicle that I have found out had the same exact problem. So unhappy with this company right now, and I have been a loyal Chevy customer.

Leased a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado from 112 Chevrolet. Truck rode very smooth until February 2017 around 11,000 miles. All of a sudden I started to feel a vibration along with a rough ride. Felt every little bump in the rode. Took into 112 Chevrolet and they told me about a recall that they will do and check out the truck. They had it all day and when I called they told me there is nothing wrong. Operating as designed.

I purchased a 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 Crew Cab in Feb 2017. From the beginning the engine has had a hesitation at different speeds. The truck has been serviced at the dealership since it was purchased. After complaining several times, I mentioned the issue is all over the internet to the dealer. They then "FOUND" a service bulletin regarding the hesitation. If you complain, they put the truck through some test and if it falls into a certain area, they recommend a transmission fluid flush. Research on the internet shows this doesn't work. This is the 8 cylinder 5.3 engine. Would stay away from the Chevy Silverado.

I have been in the dealership 4 times because of issues ranging from drivers mirror not opening completely, glow plug went bad, random engine light and they reset my ECM and now it won't start. My vehicle only has 15,000 miles on it. WTH!!! I am LIVID!!! I will never buy another 2500 Chevy Silverado midnight edition with diesel!!!

I bought the 2009 Chevy Silverado crew 4x4 5.3L new in 2009 from Quirk Chevrolet. I have changed the oil between 3,000 and 4,0000 since new. The truck has 70,600 miles and needs a $4500.00 Camshaft and Lifter replacement. The truck also needed both lower ball joints replaced this summer. No more Chevys for me. I would recommend staying away from them in the future for anyone else. I contacted the corporate office and mentioned that they have had a known problem for years according to the internet. They said that because my warranty is expired. That there is nothing they can do. It's not uncommon in today's world to have engines go over 250,000 miles. I drove this like granny would and I need a new Camshaft??? Really!!! My advice buy something else besides Chevrolet!!!

I bought my 2015 Ram Sport Hemi with 17,000 miles. I bought it this past Feb and have had problems from day 1. First the ECO system is a pain in the butt, it causes the engine to run rough and sounds terrible when going from the 4cyls to 8cyls during acceleration. The transmission has failed to shift out of 1st gear 3 times. The transmission bangs when stopping between 1st and 2nd gear (not all the time). Sitting at a light I thought someone slammed into the back of me but it was the transmission surging forward. If I had not had my foot on the brake firmly I would have hit the car in front of me. Of course I take it to 2 different dealers and they both say the same thing, either they can't duplicate or it's NORMAL, comes from the factory that way. What's the deal, they think all of America is stupid.

Purchased brand new 2012 Chevy Silverado LT Z71 with the 5.3 liter engine with 6 speed automatic transmission. The salesman and the dealership (500 Automotive in Clinton, IN) really pushed this drivetrain package stating that it had more power and better mpg rating than the 5.0. It cost a little more but I trusted them and decided to buy it considering that I was planning on keeping it for a long time (I paid twice as much for this truck ($44,000 msrp) than I paid for my first house).

I bought a 2015 Silverado Lt Crew Cab New off the dealers lot. At 650 miles the check engine light lit and torque converter exploded causing metal to enter tranny. They fixed it within 2 weeks, at 16k miles 4 lifters failed in the engine. I wrote to customer satisfaction for Chevrolet. Since it didn't fit Lemon law they said they would send me a 500 dollar accessory card. 4-6 weeks later it never arrived. It slipped my mind for about a year. I wrote them another email and they replied with this letter. "Greetings from the Chevrolet Customer Assistance Center! I just received a notification that the $500 Accessory Certificate was already generated. You should be receiving this in about 3-4 weeks’ time (depending on your postal service). The certificate was sent to the address that you provided."

Bought a 2014 Chevy Silverado used with 27,000 miles. Have had numerous things go wrong with this truck but the latest 2 were not covered under warranty and ended up having to come out of pocket to have them fixed. The 1st thing in the last few months was the (ECM) Electronic Control Module for the air-conditioning. It quit and the whole AC system went black. No control whatsoever. That was $500.00 to fix now. The AC lines that go into compressor cracked leaked all the Freon out. That was another $500.00 to fix all within 3 months of each other. The bad part was that I called Chevrolet to see if they would help me out on the cracked lines 5 times. Service Request number ** Senior Advisor Mr. **. He never called back nor emailed me for 4 weeks.

DO NO BUY A CHEVROLET SILVERADO! My story begins with finally selling my 1989 K5 Blazer that I had driven daily for over 15 years with no issues. I finally decided to upgrade to a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Z71 5.3 L V8 with an MSRP of over $44k. I've been a loyal GM customer since the age of 16 and have owned 14 GM vehicles throughout my many years of driving. At first the truck was fine. It was comfortable and had a lot of upgraded tech options I was not accustomed to.

I bought my 2013 Chevy silverado 1500 z71 extended cab at the end of 2013. The truck only got 12mpg hwy and 8 to 10 mpg city. The dealer said it needs to break in but it never got better. At 20 000km I went to the local pizza place had lunch then went to leave and the ignition would not turn when I put the key in so truck had to be towed. Truck was less than a year old. I then was out of my truck for five weeks while it sat at the dealer waiting for a new steering column and dealer would not give me a loaner. I had to go and buy a used $3000 truck to drive while mine was being fixed so that I had something to drive. So I finally get the truck back and about 10 000 km later the truck almost burns to the ground when a transmissionline let go on the hwy. Again had to be towed.

After reading so many negative reviews I thought you might want to hear about some favorable ones. I currently own 3 Silverado's (2008, 2015, 2016). '08 has the 4.3L V6 and I cannot say enough about this truck. With regular maintenance and oil changes very little has gone wrong with it. It is involved in the Takata air bag recall but as long as my grandchildren don't ride in the passenger seat I am not too worried. The '16 is a 2500 HD with a 6.0L V8... Now this truck is a beast. My husband is a mechanic and we work this truck and with regular maintenance and oil changes have had no problems. Please need to realize brake lines carry a corrosive material and with time and age it affects these lines. So many times people wait until it's too late to service a vehicle or make repairs. That only drives the cost up more. I am having an issue with my '15 when it switches from V8 mode to V4 (for fuel economy) but the dealership is taking care of the problems.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado 6.2L V8 LTZ Z71 - Driving at 45 mph, truck began shaking and the Drive Shaft fell out. I rolled about 300 feet to get out of a busy road. I had the oil changed 2 months ago at a Chevrolet Dealership and have it regularly serviced at the dealership. The truck has 81,247 miles on it.

How would you feel if you bought a vehicle and drove it for 2 days, less than 50 miles and you had an issue that was going to cost 5700 dollars to repair? That is what happened at Smart Cars. When I brought it to their attention they wanted add some part not originally part of the vehicle that would not fix the problems. If you buy a vehicle there it may look good but it may end up a lemon which will be your problem.

Compressor (2014 Chevy Silverado) was replaced under warranty at 31K miles. Now, Condenser is leaking at 44K miles and the part cannot be found. Apparently, it is in very high demand based on common failure. Chevrolet has said that's too bad, deal with it.

When I first got my truck 2016 Double Cab 4WD, I had pulled off to the shoulder of the road to prepare to make a U-turn. When traffic cleared I proceeded to do so and the front end started hopping like it was in 4WD. My husband was with me. He asked if I had in 4WD. I said no, so after I turn I pull off the shoulder on the other side of the road pull up, stopped and put in reverse and the rear end made a big clunk noise. Again wondering what the heck! I let it go, then every time I would back out of my driveway it would hop. So then I notice that the front right tire and left rear tire have tread gouged in the center of them.

I own a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado. Been owning it for about 3 months. Transmission has recently been giving me problems. Truck has 43000 miles. Transmission takes a while to shift and gets jumpy. Also makes my RPMs fluctuate.

DO NOT BUY THE 2017 CHEVY SILVERADO!!! There is a major engine problem with RPM surges while driving 0 - 30 MPH. I just spend $40,000 on a new truck and I was completely robbed. The vehicle simply does not drive well. It constantly jerks and surges at low RPMs. EVERYONE is having this problem and the dealer ADMITS to it and they say, "There is nothing we can do for you." It is the craziest thing. The vehicle is so uncomfortable to drive. READ UP ON THIS PROBLEM before purchase. It is a very terrible engine problem. DO NOT BUY THIS TRUCK or you will end up like me. Very disappointed and stuck. If I sell now, I will be out thousands of dollars. I am totally sad and mad about this whole experience. If you are reading this, please talk to recent truck buyers - they will tell you the same thing. DO NOT BUY A CHEVY SILVERADO!

Bought a 2011 Silverado, 5.3L engine with rear wheel drive. In April of 2017 engine died a slow death, loud knocking and rough idle. $1950 later, had to replace all the lifters on the left side of the motor. Oil manifold failed. Corporate would not help. Out of warranty. Had problem with such within 300 miles when I first bought it. Some time ago I owned a GMC Safari and the engine 'ate' the oil. No one could explain why but I have since read about this happening to many others. Had to replace engine with rebuilt. So, no more GM products for me. I have owned 7 GM autos.

I have a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Crew Cab with 24,000 miles on it. So far I love this truck. No problems whatsoever. But I use it as a truck haul and drive 100 miles plus daily. But no complaints. Gets great mileage for a V8 almost 20mpg average. Just recently installed cold air intake and flowmaster dual exhaust. Woke the truck right up drive like it has the 6.2L in it now. I love it.

I bought 2017 Silverado, after 840 miles starting having 4x4 electrical problem. Took in 1st time and they replaced actuator in transfer case and was told to come and get it. Picked up and turned 4x4 on and it did same noise and code. Heinrich never checked it after, I start SR claim # at GM. Lady at GM said I could get buyout or replacement vehicle, she would call dealer and call me in 24 hrs. She never called and dealer said no way on replacement, GM don't authorize no such thing. Truck was fixed after 2 tries and week later, GM won't take my call, case got closed. Liars and bad service, will never by Chevy again.

2010 Silverado 5.3 - Bought the truck new, no heavy hauling, and it was maintained by Chevy. 66,000 miles the throttle control sensor went out leaving me on the side of the road. One week later the motor locked up. Chevy customer care did not call back within 48 hours as promised, nor did they return a call during that time period. Call the rep again, and was told that "she has a life" and that's why she didn't call. In the shop over a month, no rental car, several different answers why it broke down. First, main bearing seized, then a cracked block. Called again to a Chevy rep, no help and refused to let me speak to a superior. Again was promised a 48 hour call back that didn't happen. Chevy put in what they call a "crate" motor which, according to them, has used, remanufactured and new parts. Drove the truck straight to a Toyota dealer and traded it in. Engine is a lemon and poorly designed. I will never buy another GM product.

Purchased a new 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT 4x2. At 6k vehicle completely dies and leaves me on the freeway. Went to lower the window and the window started going up and down by itself. Towed the truck in and was advised that the fuel pump and fuel module went out. After repairs I started to notice a whistling noise and a hesitation or stutter in the truck. Took it in and they could not duplicate the issue. After about 3 time of taking it in, I finally had a tech drive with me and he heard what I was talking about. The entire exhaust system was replaced and the truck ran a bit better and no more whistling noise.

I own a 2011 Chevy Silverado with the 5.3 L engine. Started having oil consumption problem. 1 quart every 1,200 miles when the truck reached 105,000 miles. At a 113,000 miles, traction control light coming on, very rough idle, loss of power. Engine misfires on cylinder one. Had to have my pistons, rings, plugs, gaskets replaced. All due the A.F.M. system. Cost over $5,000.00 to fix. Chevy Corporate not any help. Waited for a call from a supervisor, and nothing. Sent several emails, etc. G.M. Corporate denied knowing of this issue in their vehicles. However they have a lawsuit over this in another state. I would not purchase anything else from G.M. even if I loved their vehicles, the treatment I have got from the Customer Service Center is enough to turn me against G.M. forever. I will always try and prevent anyone from spending their hard-earned money on G.M. products.

Last year I purchased a 2014 Silverado 1500 4x4. It had $20,000. I bought it from Rancho Santa Margarita Ford and purchased their bumper to bumper 100,000 mile warranty. I should have known there was a problem from my first oil change. Just before 5000 miles my low oil light came on. I took it to Chevy and they stated that since it did not burn 1qt per 1000 miles they consider that normal. I couldn't believe it. If I wanted a car that consumed oil I would have bought something a lot cheaper and older. I wanted something that would be reliable for the next couple years.

I have had Chevy trucks my whole life and now looking elsewhere. I have at the moment 04 2500hd 4X4 crew cab with a Duramax, 99 1500 ext cab 4X4 5.3, 98 GMC Sonoma 4X4 ext cab and a 87 1 ton 2 wheel drive Dually. GM knows of problems and with thousands of others that are having or had the same problems. We just had a bit of a snow storm and I live in a area that doesnt have the best winter maintained roads. As it stands right now I own all 2 wheel drive trucks. The 04 had me stuck last night on a plowed road as the transfer case popped 3 times then stopped working altogether. I called for help and the 99 4X4 manual 4X4 decided its not going to work.

I bought a brand new Chevy Silverado 1500 LT in December of 2012. I currently have 97,000 miles. At 66,000 miles I needed a full transmission replaced. Covered at no charge and has a new 100,000 mile warranty, but makes me wonder how long this one will last. My stock radio has a short with the auxiliary jack and constantly cuts out thinking a device is connected. My rear passenger window control has an issue. From the passenger door it sometimes won't roll up and has to be rolled up from the driver controls. The latest... the driver side interior door handle broke off in my hand. Not just the handle but the arm connecting the handle to the door broke. $430 (part only) for a whole new panel because that is Chevy's only fix. Guess I should have paid for the extended bumper to bumper warranty, but at over $30,000 for a brand new vehicle I thought the quality would have been better.

We have had our 2007 Chevy Silverado since it was brand new and we had to replace the 5.3L engine two times. One at 112,000 miles and now the second at 236,000 miles. GM needs to fix this issue.

I bought a brand new 2017 Chevy Silverado about a month ago. The day after I bought it I noticed a slight miss or hesitation when lightly accelerating. I took it back to have them look at it and they went for a drive with me. He tried to tell me all kinds of stuff like it was still learning how I drive. After two visits I made another appt. for them to get it in the shop. They called later that evening after having it for a day that GM is aware of the problem but they don't know what it is or how to fix it but if anything changed they would let me know. So that tells me they knew about the problem before they sold it to me and are still selling to customers.

The new 2017 1 ton Chevy diesel has an opening in the front bumper area that allows any bird or stone or whatever to puncture a large hole in the transmission oil cooler. Oops $$$. This is a large 5"x15" hole that is just waiting for something to happen. It definitely needs a grill or mesh of some sort over it. Also, the DEF fluid filler tube is stuffed up against the passenger side firewall with a crossmember support pipe running across the top of it. Only enough room for a 1 quart bottle and DEF fluid is only sold in 1 and 2 1/2 gallon jugs. Since DEF fluid is corrosive, this is a bad system. The two problems look like some of Ford's better ideas.

Let me know. I want to start a claim against GM selling defective trucks and knowing about it as far back as 2014.

So I bought a brand new 2016 Chevy Silverado blackout edition. Had nothing but trouble with this truck. In the 1st 2 month it was in the shop 4 times. Two weeks after I bought it I realized there was something wrong with the transmission. It would shimmy when going from 5th to 6th gear. It was really light and you could barely feel it. I told the dealer about it and they said "come back at 5000 miles." So at 5000 miles I came back. By this time it was worse. They told me they couldn't feel it or find anything wrong with the truck. I've brought it back 2 more times since then and they tell me they don't feel it and everything is normal. It's pretty bad when my 9-year old stepson says "Dad, why is the truck vibrating?" Or that my wife won't drive it because of the same reason. But yet the dealer can't feel it or find anything wrong. BS!!!

All-Black, Rally Edition, 5.3L truck. Some of the negative reviews I experience when I first started driving my truck but after awhile they went away. Consumers have to realize when they buy a new truck from a dealership it have to be broken in first. Broken in means buy a truck for truck purposes, like hauling, towing, moving heavy objects, etc. New vehicles are not designed to drive only on the weekends, just on Sundays for church, or special occasion when you feel like bringing it out the garage or driveway. You have to actually drive these new vehicles on a daily basis. If not you will have mechanical problems.

Recently purchased a 2017 Silverado 44 with the 5.3 and 6 speed auto with the all star trim package. I've been a loyal G.M. customer for decades. Not anymore. Literally from day one I've been experiencing transmission shifting problems and the info center showing random messages even when not in use. The truck had 5 miles on it when I purchased it. When I spoke to the service mgr. the 2nd day of ownership he shrugged his shoulders. I don't work six days a week to spend my money on a piece of junk. Thus begins the battle...

So I bought my 2012 Silverado 1500 crew cab with 24000 miles on it. At 27000 miles I brought in because of loud noise coming from front differential. The service department didn't even look at fluid or anything for that matter and told me that all the 2012 Silverados made this noise. And to only put in auto when you need to be in 4wd. So noise got worse so took it to another dealer and they said same thing!! So now I just think it's the noise it makes and leave it out of 4wd. Well at 70000 miles I had to use 4wd because of weather and guess what?!? My front differential goes out. And guess what?!? Warranty is over!! But now a dealer will look at it!!! And guess what? The bill is 3200$!! Pretty upset with GM. I'm trying to see if they can help me and they won't even call me back.

Our driver's door handle broke a couple months ago and we frustratingly paid approximately $400 to have the handle replaced. A couple weeks ago the replaced handle became loose so we took it again. The advice given to us was, "Well just don't be so hard on the handle." Seriously??? So they "tightened" it and it seemed to be functioning okay. Then just a couple days ago it became loose again. This time they said the problem was with the "linkage" in the door panel. And it would cost approximately $600 to get the door panel assembly replaced. Apparently Chevrolet is aware of this reoccurring problem and multiple requests have been made for a recall but they would rather earn profit by selling door assemblies. Unless Chevrolet "does the right thing" we will never purchase a Chevrolet again.

I bought a new 2016 LTZ Silverado and it has the worse transmission I've ever owned in a pickup. Hard upshifts and downshifts at low speeds, long hesitations at stop signs (2 to 3 sec) that is crazy almost caused an accident a couple times. I took to dealer. They say that's normal but lots of complaints from people. Can't believe there's no recall or computer update for transmission.

I have a 2000 Silverado 1500 pick-up truck which I still drive today. I have done my regular maintenance on the truck and it is amazingly still in good condition and runs like a charm. My mileage is still low at 115,000 miles on the truck because I have been told by mechanics and other owners that I should still be driving it past 300,000 miles if I take good care of it. I have changed the tires & brakes of course before 100,000 miles but I have done little else except change the oil and exhaust system due to rusting from road salt applied by the local jurisdiction during snow and ice, which don't get much of but when it sounds like it's coming they load it on.

I bought a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 4x4 and it has to be the worst investment I have ever made. To start that thing uses up a quart of oil every 1,000 miles. GM says this is normal! Also has the infamous engine ticking. Have had it in the shop multiple times because it got in the habit of having the interior, headlights and dash lights start flickering all at once then the steering wheel locks up making it impossible to steer, A/C and In-dash turn off then the entire truck shuts down. It has been to Friendly Chevrolet 3 times for the same issue only to be returned as "fixed" or the excuse of "unable to recreate."

2013 Chevy 3500 - I have a 3500 and I swear this is the biggest piece ever made. We have fixed everything from a whole new fuel system to oil pan replacement transmission leaks. We have to completely redo the left brakes about every 3 months. The dealerships says it's because we drive the truck on gravel roads and we should be washing the brakes off everyday!!! We have a Ford 1 ton also and has just as many miles and the brakes have never been a problem. Then to top the whole brake thing we get them replaced from the dealership and I was driving home and the tire fell off the truck that was $1000 that Chevy would not cover. Now we just had brakes redone less than a week ago and I'm down to 4 lug nuts on the truck!!

I was going down my driveway, pulling a 16 ft stock trailer when the brake line on the drivers side rear wheel ruptured. I was able to stop, but only because I was going 10 mph and the electric brakes on the trailer engaged. Took to Chevy service and had to have all the brake lines replaced because of corrosion and holes in them. Replaced 2 front calipers because the pistons were corroded and stuck. Truck had to be towed to dealer. Dealer wanted to replace rear pads and drums because they were exposed to brake fluid, but we can't afford that right now. Total cost of repairs was #1647.94. 2/3's was labor because of the calipers. Truck is a 2005 with 61,500 miles. I am filing this to join the thousands of others with the same problem and to have the evidence to recover the cost for repairs from Chevrolet.

I purchased this brand new 2015 truck with less than 100 miles on it. Since day one I've had nothing but problems with the transmission. It's so bad that the service department has worked on it multiple times and now is in the service department again for 3 weeks!!! I'm paying for a truck I can't drive. Among the transmission I've had multiple problems with the driver's seat, had to replace the rims and tires, the tailgate fell off, the driver's door panel melted, the 110 outlet broke, and radio stopped working.

Traded in my 2007 Nissan Titan for a used 2014 Chevy 1500 crew cab. Bought the truck at a Corpus Christi dealership. It had less than 4000 miles on it. Truck had aftermarket rims on it. 24" rims look like a very nice truck. When driving back home which is 200 miles away we could feel slight vibration on it but was told that it was the aftermarket rims. After putting a couple hundred miles more, the vibration got worse. I googled what the problem could be. That's when I found out Chevy had a vibration problem called the Chevy shake. That's the least of my problem.

I'm working on a 2003 Chevy 1500 2 wheel drive standard cab. In the brake lines are rusted trailer de meet the frame on driver's side beneath the door. As you open the door where the hinges are just file it's right under to the frame and that's where the brake lines lay up against the frame from the water I guess sitting there soaking up the brake line was soaking up the water causing it to rust. Seems like you could lift them up about 2 inches and it wouldn't be a problem or go to a better grade metal looks like braided lines all the way back. This is the third brake light out replaced on this truck and I only had it for 6 months prior to the month that I had it. The previous owner had the brake lines replaced. It's a serious issue and you all to make the brake lines with a better metal and stop trying to save money using an inferior brake line metal used stainless steel that will eliminate any rust problems.

2013 Chevy Silverado with Rocky Ridge pkg...multiple problems. I bought my truck brand new in 2013. It currently has 66000 miles on it and I have nothing but problems with it. I already had to have #1 spark plug replaced due to it splitting. Now another one is messed up, back passenger door retains water inside the door itself every time it rains, the clear coat is peeling off my wheel wells, my stereo scans for channels constantly on its own, the ac stays on outside air, won't switch to recirculating anymore. I already had to have both tail pipes welded back on. Needless to say all the issues besides the #1 spark plug are not covered on the original warranty. Really disappointed in the product that they are selling for such outrageous prices. I won't buy another Chevy. That is for sure. I feel this truck is a lemon.

While driving to Idaho through Oregon my side curtain airbags and seat belts deployed for no reason at all. We drove on the rumble strip and they blew up. The dealer said computer ECM showed no problem. Everything was normal. PAC team was told to stop investigation and claim was transferred to Michigan. Claims rep who could care less and gave the Sam story to me as she told others on this site. The dealership has been fantastic. I have ordered 3 trucks so far and GM has cancelled all deals and assistance. Now I get notified there is another recall for airbags that won't deploy. In 2013 I believe 2 children were killed from these side curtain deployments. GM had to recall similar vehicles just a few years ago for this same problem. My insurance will not certify the truth and has other claims for this same problem. It is only happening to a small amount of these trucks and cars so GM can care less and deny everything...

Purchased this vehicle "new" in Feb 2015 with 4,000 miles on it. Two months into ownership the vehicle went back to the dealership for multiple issues. The vehicle immediately had issues with severe vibration from the rear suspension. Vibration was so severe at 50-70 mph that passengers were terribly uncomfortable. The vehicle also has shifting issues mostly between 2nd and 3rd gears into acceleration. The dealer made a lot of excuses and kept the vehicle an extended amount of time to diagnose the problems with no fix for the vibration. The transmission and suspension definitely have design issues on the 2015 models.

Purchased 1 ton Chevy Pickup to pull 5th wheel rv. This vehicle has factory installed integrated braking system. The last three times pulling RV after two hours traveling the Trailer will bounce severely when brakes are applied on Truck. Feels like the truck is sending signals to truck to cause trailer to act like anti-lock brakes pulsating. Braking cause trailer to bounce. You have to remove foot off of truck brake to get it to stop. Trailer does not do this when pulled by other vehicles. Chevy will not admit there is a problem This is a hazardous issue as truck will not stop when this happens.

2014 Silverado A/C out - I bought this truck new and the a/c has gone out at 40,400 miles. Upon 5 mins of online research I see that this is a common problem among 2014-2015 GM trucks.

2014 Silverado 1500 Crew Cab LT - Purchased this vehicle a few months ago with 13000 miles on it. Been reading all the bad reviews and agree with quality problems. Owned a 2000 Silverado with 216000 miles never let me down. Think I've figured out what to do to help out with the idle and wired shifting and banging of gears with this questionable 6 speed tranny. Take total control of it by keeping it in manual 5 around town which keeps it from going into drop 4 cylinder mode and allows you to drive up to 50 mph without burning a lot of extra fuel.

As far as I'm concerned it's been a great truck, never done me wrong. Just as the ones before it from GM, we did have a problematic GMC Sierra but never had a bad Duramax Silverado. But this review is specifically about my current 2013, which has run great from the beginning. Now it's at the 87000km mark, a great portion of which has been spent towing a heavy trailer on rough gravel, which it does with competence. I know 87000 is relatively low... But I really can't see it going south on me in the future. And if it does, I will be doing a much different review.

My 2008 Chev Silverado 1 ton diesel would shut down whenever it towed our 40' camper. It would never pull it when weather was over 85 degrees or up mountain roads. It would go into safe mode or shut down completely. One time it shut down on the road 100 miles from Rapid City and had to be towed back and they said the oil was dirty when the truck monitor system said it still had 30% left. The dealership said they don't believe in the truck monitoring system and I needed to change the oil more often, $300 dollars later on the road.

January 16, 2015 I was involved in a car accident where I t-boned a mini van in my 2002 Chevrolet Silverado. I wasn't at fault - the van failed to yield on a left hand turn. My speed was about 40 MPH straight into the van, both my airbags failed to deploy. Chevrolet investigated and said I wasn't braking hard enough before impact. I had no idea how hard I was braking would be a factor in my airbags deploying. I thought it depended on impact. Chevrolet says they aren't liable and won't accept fault. Why have airbags if they don't deploy upon impact. How many people have to get hurt before Chevrolet fixes the issue and accepts blame?

I have 2014 Chevy Silverado with 47 thousand miles, my ac compressor froze. You would think for 42 thousand dollars you be getting a good product.

I've owned GM vehicles for more than 15 years and have always had great experiences until getting my 2015 Chevy Silverado. The truck started vibrating at highway speeds, around 12,000 miles. I've brought it in for service multiple time, and the dealer can feel the same vibration, but do not know where it is coming from. They had a GM engineer drive the truck and after he rode in the truck he recommended changing the ring and pinion in the rear end to no avail. The truck still vibrates the same. I've contacted Chevrolet and have basically been told to deal with it, the truck is within specs. They are trying to bribe me with a 60 mos/75000 mile bumper to bumper warranty. I asked them how does that fix the vibration problem. I was told if I do not take the warranty, they are closing the case. Extremely disappointed!

In or around November 2014 I purchased a new Chevy Silverado 3500. Right from the get go it had a slight lifter noise. Not bad enough to take in. Now with 19,000 miles on it, it getting consistent and I am getting the runaround - they are saying it is injector noise. Not what other dealers are saying it is - when they off me 5k off of what KBB says it should be worth. Very Frustrating.

Had this truck for 10 years and the frame is rotten. It makes no sense at all. We pull our camper with this we could have been killed. The place where the bumper is and where the towing gear goes was completely gone. Chevrolet should be ashamed.

My power steering failed after 4800 miles. Lucky I was not hurt. It happen all of a sudden. There is a recall on this item and supposedly it was done prior to this incident happening on 6\17\16.

Just bought new 2016 Silverado. It had 2 miles when I bought it. Started vibration with less than 400 miles. Why are they allow to sell a vehicle with known problems? I pay way too much to buy a lemon. Took it in and was told it had to have 500 miles in it before they would look at it because it's a known problem. If it's known they should know how to fix it and fix it no matter how many miles are on it. But it seems like they don't have a clue.

I bought a brand new Chevy Silverado. When I got it had 33 miles on it. Now it has like around 150 miles and it is sitting at the dealership because from a dead stop. It is sluggish, jump, bumps and takes off slow like the same problem Chris has from Florida. The dealership had it now since may 31 2016 and they have no idea what's wrong. They say gm is no help. If anyone had this problem and got it fixed please email me thanks.

Purchased two 2015 Chevy Duramaxes within a year of each other. Was really happy with its performance so that's why we bought the second one. We pull RVs for a living that's why we have so many miles on them. We were very adamant about changing the oil and servicing the trucks. Was pulling a small two axle 27' travel trailer through Indianapolis in cruise control at 55 mph when I heard what sounded like the engine was laughing so I took it out of cruise and that's when all hell broke lose. The engine started hammering very loudly. I knew immediately that it was done. As stated before never any problems. Write GM about problems and basically told "Sorry out of warranty." Now the second one is starting to making knocking noises at 107,000. I will never purchase another GM product again and I caution others. At 201,000 that Duramax motor should have just been breaking in. For the extra money a diesel costs you expect a longer life.

I traded in my 2013 Toyota Tundra (because of fuel mileage) and bought a new 2016 Silverado truck. No one at dealership told me or no disclosure that these trucks have a vibration issue! Seems like if a new item no matter what it is any problems (unresolved should be disclosed to customers). Well now I own the annoying vibrating truck--I'm not happy! I would have kept my old truck if I would have known about this issue. Seems to me there should be a disclosure about this issue before you buy the thing!!! I'm not happy with Chevy! I've recently lowered it and no change same issue vibrates!!! Beware of Chevy Silverados!!!

I purchased my new Chevy Silverado 1500 LT on February 25, 2916 and after one week of owning the truck it developed a small vibration and went to the shop for repair. They did a road force balance on the tires which made the vibration worse. So, back to the shop it went. Another tire balance and it didn't help. It went back to the shop for the third time and I was told there is nothing wrong with the truck. The service manager was very nice but told me he knows the truck has a vibration but there is nothing he can do to fix it. He said GM has problems. They know it but have not offered a fix. He said I would have to live with because that's what Chevy trucks do. Then he informed me of other problems, which I had noticed on a small scale. Problems with the transmission and electronics. My problem with GM is obvious, and I will never buy another GM product.

I will never buy another GM/Chevrolet vehicle ever! The vehicles are cheaply made and no quality. And the customer care and making sure a customer is happy and satisfied, they are arrogant and do not care about the customers that buy their expensive vehicles. And the dealerships lie to loyal customers and cheat them on their trade-ins and service will lie right to your face and tell you nothing is wrong!!! When I take off work and wait for the issues to be repaired they come out to the waiting room and tell me the ticking noise is normal and they will do nothing. And they tell me the transmission not shifting properly is normal. Lies more lies and lie about lying! They lie to you before you buy the vehicle. They told me before I got the new truck they would put new all terrain tires on the new truck!! But after I get it they will not put new tires on the new truck.

Traded in my 2008 Silverado 1500 Crew Cab for a used 2015 Silverado 1500 Crew Cab with 13,600 miles in Aug of 2015 at Auto Nation of Pembroke Pines FL. So far I have brought the truck in for service twice. The truck vibrates excessively at idle and transmission shifts erratically when accelerating from a full stop or changing lanes. The first time they found nothing wrong. The second time they informed me that they were aware of these problems as they had many customer complaints for these same issues. Was told that GM was redesigning the motor mounts to correct the vibration issue. As for the transmission was told this is "normal" (Definitely not normal)!!!

I purchased a 2014 Chevy Silverado, 1500-4WD pickup. I currently have less than 20,000 miles on the truck. I began having brake problems around November 2015. I carried the truck to a GM dealer on or about 1/8/2016. The brake problem was not corrected, so I contacted General Motors (Reference # **). I was assured the brakes would be repaired. I have contacted and attempted to contact GM many times, from 1/8/2016 through 3/4/2016. GM is refusing to accept my phone calls and is avoiding contact in an attempt to evade repair of my vehicle.

The exterior chrome trim on my 2015 Chevrolet Silverado has deteriorated rapidly after only 20,000 miles. The local GM dealer's service manager has indicated he has had a large number of customers with the same problem, and he agrees it should be a covered issue, however, GM has said it is an "environmental" issue and is not covered. I traded in a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado with a very similar chrome trim package that did not have this amount of deterioration after 7 years and 150,000 miles, that had been driven in the same "environment". GM has simply made the exterior trim with chrome film on it, substantially cheaper, such that it does not stand up to normal driving conditions. While I have been a long time GM customer, I will never buy another GM product if they did not stand behind their products any better than this.

Bought a new 2016 Silverado 1500 from Dyer Chevrolet in Vero Beach, Florida. The truck has a transmission or communication problem between throttle and engine. It is sluggish, jumps, and basically runs pretty bad at a slow take off from a stop. They acknowledge there is a problem and the dealership refuses to fix it because GM has no solution . At this time I just want to give it back. Worst truck I have ever owned. Looks good runs like **.

GM states that your vehicle will stop if one of your brake lines fail. This is not the case! I parked my 2004 Silverado at work in the morning without any symptoms of a brake line leaking. When I left work that day, I started my vehicle, placed my foot on the brake pedal and it went to the floor. I had other vehicles that developed failing brake lines. They had dual master cylinders which allowed the vehicle to be driven to a place to be serviced. This was not the case with my 2004 Silverado.

I purchased a 2016 Silverado LTZ Z71 on April 11th and had to bring it back to the dealer because the cabin was vibrating when in idle at a stop light. The dealer was helpful and willing to trade me for another one. The replacement truck was worse than the original. Since I purchased the truck in Eufaula, AL during my military travel to Ft. Benning and I work in Florida I took it to the nearest Chevy dealership in Fort Walton, FL. The truck was vibrating in idle and the transmission slips gear during breaking and accelerating. I took it in for repair and when I got it back it did the same thing. I know the dealership had worked on it, because I saw them worked on it.

I have owned a 2007, 2003, 2000 Silverados 5.3 4x4 (all used). I buy my first new vehicle a 2015 Silverado 5.3 4x4 (all automatics). Transmission upshifts when it should downshift causing the truck to pause when changing lanes in traffic and almost causing a crash. Between 2nd and 4th gears it will shutter feeling like a cylinder miss. I have taken to Hamm Chevy in Jax. FL. Service manager quickly dismisses problem without much investigation and retries again with a total of 34 mile test drive. I then take him for a ride. He feels the problem and says turn around and get transmission mechanic. Transmission guy says his truck does the same thing and G.M. cannot or will not fix it. He says it would void warranty if he altered it. So the service manager writes on invoice "operating as designed." So I'm stuck with a piece of junk that cost $45,000.00 with only 4,400 miles. Be very cautious when buying a 2015 Silverado with a six speed transmission.

I am a 4 time Chevy Silverado owner (1997, 2009, 2012, 2015) and have always been a fan. I purchased my 2015 on 12/23/15. I test drove the truck on roads under 50 mph. After the purchase, I noticed vibrations in the steering wheel and rear view mirror at highway speeds. I contacted my dealer and they said that sometimes the vehicles get flat spots in the tires and asked me to drive it for 500 miles. The vibration continued. I brought in into the dealer on 2/17/16 at 1302 miles. They performed a "road force balance".

Last June 2015 I purchased a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Double Cab 2WD. I currently have 10,000 miles. I have spoken to service several times about a vibration when I drive over 70 MPH and when I stop at a traffic signal when coming off the interstate. The dealer balanced the wheels twice, once last week and the problem is still there. I spoke to Service Manager and he stated that he has done numerous repairs to these trucks with no success at correcting the vibration. My 2014 had the same issue and I even replaced the tires and had no luck. What's the deal? This is a lot of crap. I have been driving Silverado's and Corvettes for over 40 years. Never had a problem like this. What's the solution? It's a great truck except for this issue.

I just bought a 2016 Silverado LT2 and I've put a lot of money into this truck with GM parts. And this truck is jerking and hard shifts and hard downshifts. It's like the transmission can't decide what's 1st or 2nd gear and it shifts crazy. My wife hates this truck and I have over 2000 members at my church (freedom of speech).

I have a 2002 Chevy Silverado z71. Have a braking issue! So far I have replaced: all the brake lines, all four rotors: master cylinder, 4 sets of pads. Replaced all the brake fluid twice! The issue is the brake pedal will go to the floor slowly, on a hard stop, it will stop but slowly and not even close to the stopping distance that it should or used to. The pedal is very mushy! P.S. I removed the ABS fuse when I bought the truck in 2006 & I tapped two vehicles in wet weather. So I yanked the fuse, and no longer have had any issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I traded in a truck at Hubler Chevrolet and got cheated and lied to about everything. First of all they cheated me out of my trade in value. The new car sales manager told me he would put new all-terrain tires on the new 4x4 truck that I was going to get. After I got the new truck he would not put new tires on the truck. The salesperson told me the new truck had on-screen maps and navigation. It does not. The window sticker advertised this new truck to get 16 mpg city and 22 mpg highway. This new truck get 14 mpg city and 18 mpg. This new truck has developed a loud ticking noise. It did not have that noise when I test drove it.

Took over three weeks to get a response for GM customer service. I received a letter today in the mail. They have been trying to contacted me. I call the number. My claim was not even open yet. The field rep has not even seen my claim. Within one hour and fifteen min my claim was denied. It was from some brake fluid they said. This truck is a 2013. Has less than 21000 miles on it. Brakes have never been worked on. The paint is messed up on the passenger side. It has a dozen or so spots that look like cauliflower coming throw the paint. No it is not stone chips. I just don't understand in three weeks they can make a decision in less than two hours. I have been a loyal GM guy for year. This is the second time I have had paint issues. I hope this don't end up like my van. I have pic and will be keeping up on the pics every year.

I own a 2009 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab with a 4.8L/V8 engine. I guess you could say things started falling apart on it last year, at least major things started falling apart. I have had to replace a hub on the front already. Then a month later, due to the noise my mechanic heard, I had to have an engine rebuilt... literally. Of course the truck was no longer under warranty. It had expired 6 months earlier. The truck had 86k miles on it, give or take a 1k but they had to replace the rocker arms, lifters, heads, camshaft, etc. The parts had worn down prematurely.

I own a 2010 Chev. Silverado 2500 4wd Crew Cab 6.5' bed. The pickup has only 14,000 miles, but is now out of warranty. I have had numerous mechanical problems, but nothing was fixed by GM. First, the oil pressure is very low, tested at 22lb. idle and 30lb at highway speed (2500 rpm). I took it to the dealer and they said the readings were within factory specs??? (Standard GM answer to problems.) Something is wrong with the brakes - they fade during braking and feel spongy, like there is air in the lines. Dealer told me there is nothing wrong, within factory specs. The lack of braking effectiveness is dangerous, especially when towing a vehicle without trailer brakes, but GM insists there is nothing wrong.

I took delivery of a 2015 Chevy Silverado with approximately 2000 miles on 1/23/16 from Suburban Chevrolet in Claremore, Oklahoma. After driving 9 miles to my house, smoke was visible from the engine compartment, and the check engine light was flashing. I took the vehicle back the next business day and informed them of what happened. Later that day, the sales person and the general manager informed me the engine would have to be replaced. After they removed the engine to determine the exact cause, it was determined that the piston rings were installed incorrectly allowing excessive oil into the cylinder. I told the dealership I would prefer either a new engine, or a different vehicle. I was told by the general manager "John" that he would order a new engine.

I have had my 2011 Chevy Silverado truck since new. It has 65k miles on it. It's a diesel fully loaded LTZ. It retailed for 58k. In the last 2 years it has began to have heavy ROT on the frame. There is heavy pitting and flaking on the drive shafts and the duramax oil pan. At 51k my transmission shift cable rusted so bad I could no longer shift the truck and it had to be replaced. I love the truck but for $58k I thought it would not have rotted this bad in 4 years. I think by the look of the rust that in another few years it won't be safe to drive. I also own a 2010 Honda mini van and it has NO rust and it's a year older than my truck.

I buy a brand new 2015 Silverado 4x4 crew cab about 9 months ago. Now I have nothing but problems with the shaking and transmission not working properly. I took the truck back to the dealer. They not find nothing, they say everything is ok. I feel unsafe driving. Feels that my wheels want to lock. Someone knows to help with this problem I having?

I purchased a new Chevy "classic style" pickup in 2007. I liked the style better than the new '07 Silverado which was only offered with the gas guzzling 6.0 L engine. When the brake equalizer system failed at 28k miles GM refused to perform repairs citing two problems. 1. This truck doesn't exist because it has all of the bells, buzzers and whistles but manual window cranks therefore, (GM says) I tempered with the truck. 2. Its body style is of a 2006 configuration, not 2007 and the brakes are a wear item not covered by the B to B warranty.

I have a 15 Silverado with vibration issues, had it back 3 times now and the dealer doesn't have a clue what's wrong with it. I don't drive it anymore, I don't feel safe in it. GM Canada says they never had any complaints about their trucks in Canada but my truck was built in Mexico, go figure.

Brake lines rust and bursting and no brakes and dynamic brakes. I own 1999 Chevy Silverado. The Sunday before Christmas I lost my brakes backing out the driveway, had PSI then went to floor. Look under, it was right line and kept my truck wash so to me what happen to my truck, to the cheap steel and ABS system. BS GM.

I own a 2008 Silverado with 64,000 miles on it. In October of 2015 I brought it to a local Chevy Dealership for a check engine light problem. P0300 engine misfire. The truck's engine had been making a strange chirping noise for a few months prior to throwing the code, (thought it was the fan belt).The Dealership went through a series of tests & changed a spark plug and one fuel injector. That cost me $740.00, then I was informed that the camshaft and lifters needed to be replaced & that would be another 4000.00, plus because it was out of warranty. I took it to another Dealer & they told me the same thing, & also informed me that this is a common problem that GM is aware of.

I can't wait until the American public takes Chevy down. Sure we tried once by not buying their death traps but our corrupt government and paid two timing NHSTA/American Auto Union saved them and is continuing to cover for Chevy's atrocities towards us hard working citizens. On JAN 20, '15, I brought a 2010 Chevy crew cab w/ 4.8 eng. Only 64k on it. Took it to 3 different dealers after owning it for a month and a half they all said it was a A-1 truck! Was the most BEAT vehicle I EVER OWNED... Lemon all the way. Problems? You name it--I had it. Truck sound haunted, it moaned, vibrated, clunked, leaked water in the cabin. Poor tranny, underpowered man these trucks are the worst.

Bought a new 1500 Silverado and it's been in the shop more than I've driven it - same problems as everyone else here. They build a nice looking truck I'll give them that but mechanically not so much. I traded it in recently and got myself an F-150. Last american truck out there that will run through rain and snow. I know all of us GM supporters hate to hear this but, just give it a test drive, you won't be disappointed - DON'T GO FOREIGN. The same problems occur with those trucks as they do with the Chevy.

I have been having issues with the dome light not working the way it should when you open the doors. The radio has been replaced, the body module has been reprogram. My truck has been back at the dealership so many times for this I have lost count. I have looked into the Kentucky Lemon Law and they are sure that this Truck falls into the category of buying a lemon. Piles Chevrolet has been very good about looking into the matter but has not been able to fix it. I am tired of calling the dealership getting a loaner and leaving my truck.

In 2007 I bought a brand new Chevy Silverado Classic pickup truck with the 4.8L engine. I have always changed my oil every 3000 to 5000 miles never going any longer than that. At 120,000 miles a lifter started knocking, took it to my local dealer and was told that it need new lifters and camshaft at a cost of $4,185.00. I was also informed that this a recurring problem and Chevrolet will not acknowledge it. During the repairs the dealer also said I had scouring in number 2 cylinder and pitting in number 7. I have never used oil or have I lost coolant.

I have a Chevy Silverado 2015 with 5500 miles! I'm having horrible vibration issues. It's been serviced 4 times and it's still not fixed. Any recommendations on where to go from here? Thinking it's more than tires and balancing! Please help.

2014 Chevy Silverado - vibration issues and shaking a lot. Worked on twice, no fix, then stated they would no longer work on my truck. Then they said they will. Then they say that won't. Won't give buy back when asked at low miles, then when asked at higher miles they said I had too many miles. They will probably go out of business soon if people wise up and not buy. Bad product with much worse Service. Do not buy CHEVY.

I own a 2014 Silverado LT and have had issues since day one! When Chevrolet delivered my new truck I noticed scratches on the fender and one of the doors already had dings in it. They fixed that and I was good until the countless recalls started happening. It took them 6 months total to fix most of the issues. My truck is now 2 years old and at 31,500 miles on it. The seat starts making a creaking noise. Truck goes back for another week.

Really? Not a safety issue. Wash your car more is the answer? I would love to join a class action lawsuit. I have paid over 7000.00 dollars in repairs out of pocket. Help, is there anything I can do? Stay away from GM. They are gov't backed and will do nothing to protect their consumers.

I bought a new 2013 Silverado 1500 LT crew cab 2wd long bed from Craig Smith Auto Group in Galion, Ohio and had it one day and had a bad smell of antifreeze coming from the heater and I took it back the next day where I bought it and they told me that the heater core needed replaced and gave me a loaner, upon exiting I see the mechanic tearing out the seats and dash. The next day I went in to pickup my truck and the whole inside of truck had deep scratches from seatbelt harnesses both sides to dash seat moldings surround on the steering wheel and kicker panels.

I own a 2015 Chevy 2500 6.0. Biggest mistake I've ever made - 4 times back to dealership in 2 months totaling 11 days in shop. I will never buy another GM product or from Apple Valley Chevy in Martinsburg WV again. This vehicle is a constant reminder of the poor workmanship of Chevy.

2015 Chevy Silverado ltz - During the drive I noticed that the truck had a vibration in the front end and the steering was not as responsive as I expected. I found overall the truck lacked pickup when accelerating. I felt as though I had to hammer on the gas to get a normal response from the engine and if I came to any hill or small incline I had to put the pedal to the floor to maintain any speed or it would instantly drop down in speed. I would not invest in this truck personally. The interior is fantastic but the performance felt gutless with no weight in it, like it couldn't pull itself up a hill, let alone a heavy full load and the overall running gear felt very unreliable and impractical.

Brake lines corroded and had to be replaced at 60,000 miles when truck was only 6 years old. And for the last couple of years the brakes are not responsive and the braking distance is horrible even though I have had all of the pads and rotors replaced.

I purchased a 2004 Chevy Silverado brand new. First issue I had was the airbag light came on in the first 36,000 mi. Then I had issues with the leaf springs twice. Dealer said it was due to faulty part, also in the first 36,000 mi. Next I had issues with the fan blower for the heater/AC in the first 36,000 mi. Then the fan blower went out again after my warrant was up, so I went without it working until finally I received a recall letter for that and they fixed that issue and I haven't had any problems with that since. Now I'm having an issue with it losing power. I know the trucks getting old now, so problems like this are to be expected. I'm not complaining about this issue, just wish I could figure out what the problem is, because this truck is my baby and I want to be able to get it fixed. Overall I've been pretty satisfied with this truck!!!!

Well folks?! What should we expect when the government owns GM! They sure as heck aren't going to admit anything is wrong with their junk! It is a DARN shame we are expected to buy such garbage and be happy! This will be my last so called American made vehicle! I've owned lots of GM's in the last 40 years, and this 2006 Silverado is the worst by far! SHAME on GM! Yeah, you might've guessed, my brake lines failed! Pedal went clear to the floor. 85000 miles. I had replaced all the brakes a couple days prior to the lines blowing. I suppose the lines should be added to this repair now.

Chevrolet sent an inspector to the site of the fire. They reported that the fire was due to lights on the bumper -- aftermarket bumper. They said the burden of proof was on me. I obtained a letter saying there were no lights on that type of bumper -- it is bolt on replacement bumper. They claimed 0 responsibility and said I could seek legal counsel. Unbelievable that they could not accept responsibility for their product. I had always bought chevy's. No more.

I bought new 2014 Silverado with 5 miles on it. Front end shimmy's at 72-76 miles per hour. I have 20-inch tires. Shimmy is more noticeable on the 1st drive of the day. I have been to dealer 3 times to fix. They can't. The responses were "there is a Tech bulletin, we have to drive on the lot every 30 days or tire develop flat spot, I hit a curb, it will cure itself over time."

2003 Chevy Silverado - Run don't walk! Brake lines rotted and ABS randomly fires. Fuel Lines Rotted. Radiator Rotted. Transmission cooling lines rotted. Transmission and transaxle seals failed. Oil cooler and lines Rotted. I lost my brakes as well. I found a rotted brake line with a hole in it. I had it repaired. Now the ABS fires randomly at 8 miles an hour. I have had over 8000k in need repairs on this truck since I bought it in 2003. Parking brake frozen twice. Broken Cable twice. ABS system firing at 8 miles an hour while braking. Alternator. Instrument panel. Heat fan twice. Nearly Entire front end replaced at 60k which included upper control arms then again at 94K. All shocks replaced. Transmission rebuilt because of reverse gear and 1st gear.

Like many of the other reviews I read, problems seem to begin at 100k miles. The most recent and serious is the brake problem just as others described. Luckily they went out while parked, but situation could have been worse as I often pull a trailer. Spouse repaired a rusted line with stainless and also reported fuel line same condition. Rear bumper totally rusted, so replaced that. A few of the other things that have stopped working - speedometer quit at 100k miles. Windshield washer spray stopped working. Two years ago, my heating unit would not switch from heat to air on demand. Spouse hooked up a lever on unit under dash to do this manually and it has worked just fine. Purchased this truck in 2012 with 60k miles on it and was very pleased. However my thoughts are changing.

Fuel injection pump replaced 2xs. PMD replaced 4xs. Steel Fuel lines rusted out & replaced. Body completely rusted through - not repaired. Steel Brake lines are rusted through - not replaced. ABS ruined^^. A/c broke, no fix. Wiring harness caught fire.

Bought the truck used 3 years ago. Had very low miles and all the extras, so paid 22k for a 12-year old truck with 40k miles. Has 90k miles on it now and is falling apart. Have put 3000 dollars in repairs every year I've owned the truck. The front end is horrible. The brake failure problem most Chevy owners deal with is ridiculous and no one can find out why my brakes don't work. Pedal goes to the floor and the abs comes on. Feels like I'm sliding on ice every time I stop. No lights on so they can't do a diagnostic. And I can't even drive the truck anymore because of it and still owe 10k on it. Have almost rear ended a few other cars and had to run through a couple of red lights because it just wouldn't stop. Are a lot of complaints on the net about the same problem. And something should be done about it.
