Chevy silverado 1500 4x4 for sale near me

The 2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 represents the last model year for sale of the second-generation full-sized pickup truck that debuted back in 2007. This solid pickup truck comes available in two-door regular cab, four-door double cab and four-door crew cab configurations with a short, standard or long box. The 2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 also comes in several trim levels – WT, LS, LT, XFE and LTZ. The LTZ trim features its own unique dashboard.

Like prior generations of Chevrolet Silverado 1500, the second-generation model relies on the Vortec® family of V6 and V8 engines, starting with the 190 hp Vortec 4.3L V6. V8 engine options include the Vortec 4.8L and 5.3L mills, with 302 and 315 hp, respectively. An optional 6.2L V8 engine offers an estimated 10,600-lb trailering capacity when properly equipped.1 There’s also a two-mode hybrid version of the Silverado 1500. 

Here are a few notable standard features that this generation offers:

  • 4.8L V8 engine with 302 hp
  • Automatic locking rear differential
  • Rear vision camera
  • Active Fuel Management (on the 5.3L V8 engine)

2014-2018 (Third-Generation Chevrolet Silverado 1500)

The third generation of the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 made its debut in 2014. Like its predecessor, the third-generation model comes in three body styles – regular cab, double cab and crew cab – along with a short, standard or long truck box. The 2014 model marks the arrival of the High Country trim, slotted above the LTZ and equipped with premium features like a leather-wrapped steering wheel and power-articulating running boards. Unlike the previous generation, the 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500’s dashboard design is shared among all trim levels.

The third-generation Chevy Silverado 1500 has also seen its fair share of changes, including a change from the Vortec to the EcoTec® family of V6 and V8 engines and the introduction of an eight-speed automatic transmission for use on the EcoTec 6.2L V8 engine in 2015. The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 also received a significant facelift for the 2016 model year, featuring a redesigned front grille, the addition of LED tail lights and the availability of the eight-speed automatic with the 5.3L V8 engine. The 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 became available for sale with several minor changes, including the addition of a capless fuel filler neck and the introduction of several special edition trims, including the Redline and All Star Edition.

Notable standard features for the 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 include:

  • CornerStep rear bumper
  • EZ-Lift and Lower Tailgate
  • LED fog lamps

1Various factors may impact towing capacity, including weight of passengers, cargo, and options/accessories.

I brought it back to dealer and they said the transfer case was bad. Replaced by dealer. Same issues, returned to dealer. They made some adjustments and tried to send me away. After an aliment they did, it was said truck was fine. Another heavy clunk and hard shift around 68000 miles, back to dealer, asked to have transmission inspected, told the fuild was fine no issues. Was told that's just how this truck handles. Wrong. Something is wrong. I was sent away again. Now close to 97000 miles have have a p0741code and told the transmission is bad and needs replaced.

The " service trailer brake system" light has been coming on for about 3 yrs in my truck. I have asked the dealer about this, and all I hear is it will cost me about 0 just to find out what is causing this. I was also told I could clear this just by pressing the dismiss button, which I have been doing. I don't feel this is the way to fix the problem. Since I do a lot of towing, I feel this is putting both mine and other lives in danger, since I don't know if my brakes are going to work or fail. I have recently discovered that this is a very common defect in this vehicle and is due to a faulty wire harness, which could fail at any time and cause a brake failure. I am truly afraid to operate this vehicle, and feel all 2017 silverado's should be recalled, and this faulty wire harness replaced, before people die.

Transmission issues. Brought vehicle to chevrolet dealership in wisconsin. Explained the the vehicle had a vibration and I thought if might be a tire. They indicated that it was the transmission fluid had to be changed. They change it and it was under warranty then. 10000 miles later the vibration is back. Brought it to a dealership in indiana and they informed me that the dealership in wisconsin put the fluid that was not the correct one. Now gm service wants 650 to fix the problem. Why didn't they correct this prior. They indicated they have done over 100 pickup trk like mine to fix the problem. Apparently gm dosen't want to take responsibility.

I was driving north on hwy 60 just south of the hwy 73 turnoff in arizona. It was a windy mountain road. I was approaching a vehicle from behind and took my foot off the gas and hit the brakes. Nothing - nothing. I started pumping the brakes to the floor - still nothing. I was able to adjust my position on the road and travel between the two lanes of traffic - one northbound and the other southbound. I did slightly clip another vehicle. My truck rolled into a stop several miles later. When I was almost at a complete stop - the brakes finally engaged and the vehicle stopped. From where I stopped - it was a flat drive into showlow, az and there was no cell service where I was. I drove at appx 40-45 mph with my emergency flashers along the right side of the road. The truck is sitting on my lot in lakeside, az and has not yet been taken to the dealer for service. Several things to note: I have no recollection of the incident after the initial brakes failed and I took corrective action. My next memory was rolling to a stop on the side of the road. Right after the incident, which driving into town, I suffered a stroke and drove to the hospital. I was released 24 hours later and have since returned to phoenix. The truck is still in lakeside awaiting repair.

In my truck it goes from v8 to v4 and I want it to stay in v8 all the time. Also, I have 5. 3 engine, and cuz it goes into v4, that means that the back 2 lifters isn't getting enough oil, which can cause those lifters to lock up. I think those trucks that have that issue need to be recalled, cuz if the lifters lock up it can cause the engine to lock up and cause the truck to have an accident and possibly hurt a lot of people. Also, yes there are tuners you can buy to stop the v4 part, but who knows what they can mess up in the computer part.

My brakes weren't working very good. And when I backed out my driveway I had no brakes at all and almost hit a vehicle. I took my truck to smith chevrolet where I bought it in turlock ca 95380. Upon arrival they checked it in an provided me a loaner vehicle. I purchased the vehicle with every extended warranty available.. I was within my warranties. I'm still in my warranty limit. I received a call and was told they need the loaner vehicle back for other customers. I asked if they fixed the issue. The service tech manager and service tech said there was no issue with the brakes. I asked if they got in the vehicle and tested it. They said yes. Problem is I knew they were lying. I arrived to the dealership and I met with [xxx] the general manager cause I had conflict with service manager and service tech. I asked a 30+ year mechanic named [xxx] landers to jump in the truck to test the brake. He said there's no reason the brake boosters are defected and should be replaced. But I insisted he still test the vehicle. When tested the vehicle had severe break issues. I was still left with no loaner vehicle and given my truck to take home with brake issues. Come to find out the service manager and service tech were fired. But [xxx] the general manager was the one that let me leave with my truck and no loaner vehicle. It has been a nightmare for a couple years now. I think outside of this I will seek a serious lawsuit against smith chevrolet and [xxx]. The brake booster is still not fixed.

My 2017 chevy silverado lt z71 started shaking and jerking while I was traveling at 65 mph and almost caused an accident on I - 65 north. The engine light never came on until the truck lost acceleration after leaving the interstate and would not shift into other gears. I was able to get off the interstate at 30 mph while other vehicles are going past me 70 mph +. I stopped at a dealership and they checked the vehicle out and told me the transmission needs to be replaced at 00 with only 79,000 miles on the vehicle. I investigated online and realized other owners have been complaining about 6 and 8 speed transmission shaking and shuddering/jerking while driving. The dealerships have been flushing and changing the transmission fluid to stop the problem in 8 speed transmissions. The dealership the truck is at for repairs told me this. Gm knows this is a major problem with their transmission, and it appears they refuse to recall this safety issue. Owners will pull out in traffic or driving on the interstate and the 6 to 8 speed transmissions will sporadically stop shifting thru gears and start shaking and jerking the vehicle causing acceleration issues. Gm needs to fix this problem with their transmissions because it is a safety issue for the public. The dealership told me not to set the truck to the auto setting that operates the 2 wheel or 4 wheel drive setting, and to leave it at 2 wheel drive while driving because they said the vehicle will have transmission problems if you move the setting. Gm and the dealership knows this is a major problem and so does every owner. Hopefully, this problem will be addressed.

In january 2022 the drivers seat belt latch broke in my silverado. The seat belt would not engage into the latch, there was an internal part of the latch that broke and prevented the seat belt from engaging. Obviously this is a safety issue in addition to my state having mandatory seat belt laws so I was unable to drive my vehicle. I contacted general motors customer service who said the defect was not covered under any warranty. I took the vehicle to the dealer I purchased the truck from and had the repair made. It cost 6. 97 for the dealer to replace the driver side seat belt latch. I followed up with general motors to see if the part had ben recalled or if they would pay for the repair to this integral part of the truck's supplemental restraint system. General motors sent me a check for . 97 which they said was a prorated amount towards the amount I paid to have the seat belt repaired. While there is no official recall of this part currently, there are many public forums where silverado owners have complained about this part of the supplemental restraint system failing. In my opinion a seat belt system should never fail, especially on a truck as new as mine and with such low mileage. My truck was purchased new, has been garage kept and has never been involved in any accident. The truck only had 44,400 miles on it at the time of the repair. I find it hard to believe that general motors would not cover the repair under the terms of the supplemental restraint warranty.

(1). Entire electrical failure. Initial investigation revealed negative batter post and cable extremely hot. The truck was operating perfectly and had just sat overnight. This issue was first detected about 1 month prior, when, after a 3 hour drive, I got and when I returned, there was "nothing". Disconnected battery cables, touched thwm together fo 30+ seconds and everything worked perfect. (2). The first event, I was in the middle of the arizona desert, almost 90 miles from the nearest population. (3), unable to intentionally reconstruct this problem. There was no check engine light. However - in the first event, the stabili-trak light illuminated and had to pull to the side of the road to apparently let it reset. (4). Took it into the dealer who simply stated "since there was no check engine light, it would be a waste of money, since I had driven it in". They did not take a formal report. (5). Other than the initial issue with the stabili-trak light, prior to the first incident, 2/12 hours later, there were no advanced warnings. In the 2nd event, the truck ran perfectly, parked it overnight and when I went to start it in the morning, nothing.

Trailer brake system is continuing to show a service warning on the dash. Noticed the problem when my battery kept draining over night. Then the service trailer brake system light came on and won't go away. I don't have any modifications done to the vehicle and I bought it used almost 6 months ago with 80,000 miles. The service light comes on every time you crank the truck. Gm service bulletins are reporting that it is a wiring harness that is defective. This should be addressed as a recall.

The exact warning message that pops up on my screen constantly says: trailer brake system. I have 87,531 on my certificated pre-owned 2017 chevy silverado_redline edition.

I am the owner of a 2017 chevy silverado with a little under 50000 miles. I have had an issue with the computer system occasionally re-booting while driving. Also, on occasion, I will get a warning on my display for "trailer braking system" for a fraction of a second. I have mentioned this a several service appointments and inspections, but the dealership was never able to pinpoint the problem. On the morning of monday, february 28th, I dropped my children off at school, pulled up to the edge of the building and the "trailer braking system" warning flashed for a split second on my display. I proceeded to the stop sign. As I was making the turn into traffic, the computer seemed to have re-booted several times in the period of a few seconds. However, this time, my steering locked in place while making the turn, putting the front of my vehicle just over the double yellow line into oncoming traffic. The doors locked and unlocked several times, several chimes went off, the display flashed a few times, and then, after a couple of seconds, I was able to steer and pull back into my lane. I promptly called chevy support to report the issue, as I believed this to be an important safety issue that chevy would be extremely concerned with. I was disappointed to find that the operator was not interested in taking my information, she suggested that I contact the dealership for service, which I already was in the process of doing. I explained that I was calling to report a safety issue to chevy, not to merely complain, and offered my vin number. She reluctantly checked the last 8 digits of my vin number for known recalls and again suggested I call for service. Dealership said that my power steering module needed calibration updates. But, they are not sure that this will solve my issue. I see many complaints like this online and chevy is not proactively scanning for this computer issue even though it could be deadly in traffic, especially on the highway.

On 1/20/2022, my son & I were traveling I-80 east to nv. At approximately 130 miles, we noticed the engine was sputtering occasionally along the flat road. It got worse on a climb, but engine runs smoothly. It seems fine on a downhill, but on a flat road & on a climb the problem continues & was getting worse. We checked the spark plug connections to make sure they are tight & secured. After a brief refuel stop in elko, nv, we proceeded to travel again and at approximately 4:30 am 5 miles from elko, nv, the engine went to high revolution, oil pressure to the max, check engine light came on, and the speed suddenly reduced to 30mph, transmission will not shift/or could not go any faster. Things became scary as semi truck was barreling behind us at high rate of speed and we almost got rear-ended on an icy road. We exited immediately to the next exit (exit 314) and parked at a sinclair gas station and called for a tow. The truck was towed to riverton elko chevy dealer. Further investigation revealed metal shavings at the bottom of the pan which means the truck requires new transmission. Initially we were told that the repair cost would be text="Who are we?

We currently have the truck at a local mechanic in elko, nv for an upgraded transmission replacement. We chose to not use the chevy dealer as their quoted repairs did not seem ethical at the time.

As I took off I lost communication to transmission again and trailer brake system warning chime kept going off repeatedly, lost dash gauges, causing transmission to get hot.

Later in the same morning I drove my truck to the local dealership a few miles up the road and had no braking issues while driving there. Rather terrifying suddenly having no brakes!

I purchased a certified pre-owned 2017 chevy silverado on february 1st of this year, and over the last 4 months have put only 5,000 miles on it. On june 20th, on my way back from a 10-hour trip, where I was towing a trailer with a car on it, my trailer brakes suddenly stopped functioning (about 4 hours from home). Not only did the trailer brakes stop functioning, but a warning message popped up on the dashboard "service trailer brake system". But this warning message didn't pop up just one time, it kept coming again and again and again and again and again, relentlessly chiming and distracting me from driving, it covered my speedometer readout, it prevented me from receiving or making voice commands, prevented me from hearing phone calls, and prevented me from listening to music. The service warning chime also prevented the turn signal chime from functioning. So for a full 4 hours, I was constantly reminded with a service trailer brake system chime, was unable to hear my turn signal chime, was unable to listen to music or make a phone call, and was unable to see the digital readout of my speed. The vehicle had been rendered completely undrivable, and I absolutely will not hesitate to say that the vehicle was not safe to drive in that condition. Especially if you consider that I was towing 5,000 lbs with no working trailer brakes. Gm's defective wire harness endangered my life. Consumer stated wire harness has not been replaced and manufacture refused to honor cpo warranty.

On 10/26/2019, the 2017 chevrolet silverado was being driven in heavy traffic on the 134/210 freeway area of glendale, california. The truck was going 10 mph, and when the driver went to stop, the brake petal pressed to the floor, resulting in a rear end collision with the car in front of it. The driver of the first car appeared uninjured, but filed a claim later that he had ongoing lower back issues. The brake light only went on after the incident. The truck was driven to a local chevrolet dealer and the brakes were serviced a few days later. The vacuum pump was the reason why the truck did not stop. It is notated on paperwork and confirmed when speaking to the service manager on friday, november 1st at 4:30 pm. The service manager also reported there was now a recall to fix the problem, so it would be fixed and a new vacuum pump would be put in (vacuum pump replacement special coverage n182198000). A claim was filed with gmc to pay for the damage and take over the insurance claim made by the owner of the truck, as well as the car in front of it. Gmc came out to the chevrolet dealer during that time, and gmc reported to the owner that they would not help with fixing the vehicle or the insurance claims. The owner requested the final report three times and there was no response. The truck had been reported to multiple service providers that there were issues with the stopping of the brakes in 2019. It was requested by the owner that the brakes were inspected so that they could be replaced if needed. There was also an incident in july 2019 where front and rear brakes were interchanged on the paperwork and the owner of the truck was told that it was just a paperwork mix up because they "fixed the brakes that were bad."

This has been happening off and on for a good while. I took the truck to my local dealer for a recall, which I don't personally think they did. I thought the recall was to fix this low speed issue that is known on this particular model of the 2017 silverado's. It's a safety issue in my opinion because this happens at any situation of low speeds. I tow a boat and it does it while I'm backing my boat into the water. Am I not supposed to use my boat because of this issue? Is it my fault that gm decided to use subpar parts to save money? This issue needs to be a safety recall and paid for by the manufacturer.

While driving into my driveway turning right all power completely quit, I was stuck with part of my truck in the road with no lights nothing, very scary cars coming my way couldn't see me and were honking when they did. Speed limit on road is 45mph and many came very close to hitting me. This has happened 2 times now. First time my power came back on and I started back up. This time I called wrecker and by the time he arrived I had gotten help to push me off the road. For some odd reason the truck resumed power again and is in my driveway. If this happened on a highway which I had been on that night I might not be writing this concern to you today. I have some similar stories regarding electrical problems yet no recalls.

While going through a drive through restaurant, after I ordered my food and let my foot off my brake to advance forward and stop at the window to pay about 20-30 feet ahead, I could not brake in time to stop at the window. My brake pedal was very hard to push and even though I was pushing very hard it barely stopped, even though I was going less than one mph. This was very scary as none of my warning lights were noting errors and it happened out of the blue. I only live two miles away so I drove home very slow and I didn't notice the same issue on the drive home. However, when I pulled my truck into the garage, it started to happen again and I could hear the breaks doing something weird. I'm taking it to the shop today to get fixed tomorrow when the shop opens. I did receive two warning messages via text when I got home. Diagnostic alert: service the stabilitrak stability control system in your 2017 silverado within 7 days. Txt stop to cancel. Diagnostic alert: service the antilock braking system in your 2017 silverado within 7 days. Txt stop to cancel. My main concern is the articles I read about this issue make it sound like warning lights go off to let you know something is wrong and the articles say it's ok to drive because the safety features disengage, however, my features did not disengage without warning and I'm glad a car or person was not in front of me at the time it happened or I would have hit them. This is very concerning and needs addressed before someone dies.

There was no warning light illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to coulter buick gmc tempe (7780 s autoplex loop, tempe, az 85284) where the manufacturer was informed of the issue and a factory representative was sent out to inspect the vehicle. The factory representative then informed him that there were no found issues with the vehicle.

When pressing the brakes at low speeds such as in a drive thru or parking lot, there is a pressure loss in the brakes. This requires significantly increased braking pressure to stop. Failures are associated with a ticking sound coming from the engine compartment or vibration in the pedals.

I receive many error lights every time I drive my 2017 silverado. Lights include stabilitrack and traction control disabled, trailer brake systems service, and power steering diminished. The safety complaint is due to the power steering actually shutting down and a sharp loss in engine power and hard shifting. On many occasions I have had to leave the road until the problem went away. I have gone into quirk chevrolet on many occasions but they have not been able to find the problem. I have recently contacted chevrolet directly and they have set up a case and will keep open until this is fixed.

Two separate occasions with no warning when the vehicle's steering wheel was turned to the left, while in motion, would stop during the turn and jerk back the opposite direction and power to the vehicle would be lost for a second then have power restored. The first time I was backing up and had to turn the steering wheel left to avoid hitting an object, at this point the steering wheel locked up and jerked back in the opposite direction and the headlights flickered, radio screen went blank, and the climate control lights went out but all power came back on after a second. The vehicle did the same six times while trying to back up. I have a video after I backed up and parked and the issue repeated itself so I could get a video to show for a repair. The second occasion was when I was on a 25 mph two lane road. I was turning left onto another road and after coming to a stop to let a car go by I hit the accelerator to get the vehicle to move and the issue happened again but this time the engine cut out, door locks cycled, and lost all power to the vehicle. When I lost power my vehicle was half way into the on-coming lane of the road I was turning off of. Vehicle is at the dealer now at an attempt to fix the issue, the dealership has seen the video I have and the mechanic could not replicate the problem but found issues with the electric steering while doing test drives. As of now I'm not aware of the issues that were found. Mechanic told service supervisor that the electric steering needed to be updated in the computer to smooth out the issues. Since the original issue could not be replicated, not sure if this will be the fix. If video evidence is needed please email me and I will send video.

Purchased my vehicle just a few months ago and had zero issues, other than pesky afm bull. Within the last month, transmission began shuddering and jerking as if slipping gears under normal driving conditions. Soon thereafter, a whining noise started that was more prevalent during gear change. Spoke to technicians at my local gm dealership service department and he informed me that this is an extremely common issue with this year model and transmission. According to this senior technician, they have found that a fluid swap can cure these issues because the what is called for from factory just doesn't cut the mustard. Checked the system, and to my astonishment, there are no recalls or service bulletins for this known issue. Take my truck in for services, hoping all I would need still is the fluid swap, and now the technicians are telling me I need to fork over 5k for a new new transmission because mine is shot. Even more to my amazement, I start looking around on this site and there have been a ton of similar complaints surrounding this year make and model tranamission, and yet, gm has done nothing to correct or prevent these problems from persisting.

I noticed over the past couple of days, when vehicle is moving at very low speeds less than 10mph, the brake pedal is hard to push down and vehicle keeps rolling before coming to a complete stop. This can be replicated every time even when going in reverse. At speeds above 10mph, the braking system works just fine. This has caused a few near misses where I almost backed into another vehicle while parking in reverse in a lot; almost ran into my garage door; and almost crashed into another vehicle in front of me at the light. If you go from park to drive and just lift your foot off the brake pedal without applying gas and vehicle starts rolling, then you apply the brakes, it will keep rolling a few feet before coming to a complete stop and as mentioned previously the brake pedal is hard to push down and only goes down about a couple inches. I am scheduled to take my vehicle in to service this issue at the dealer.

CategoryService BrakesDateNov 17, 2020StateNCDescription

Pressing the brakes at low speeds (drive thru, parking spaces) seems to cause a pressure loss in the brakes. This causes increased braking pressure to stop. You can hear a tick coming from what I assume is the abs controller. This happens in forwards and reverse.

Brakes have fluttered intermittently for the past few months at low speeds, feels like abs pulsing. In the past week to 10 days, brake pedal feels "dead" when I apply brakes at low speed, has gone to floor with no response to braking input. Yesterday, when pulling in driveway towards garage, maybe 3 mph, applied brakes with no response. Shifted quickly into neutral and applied parking brake, stopping inches away from garage door.

Over this past weekend, an electrical fire smell appeared in the vehicle, and shortly thereafter, the rear sliding window began to smoke from behind a plastic part. I immediately pulled the truck over and shut down the engine and evacuated my family. The smoke stopped and I removed the fuse and relays for rear defrost to prevent future fire. Clearly the recall repair did not accomplish fixing the safety issue.

I looked in my back seat to see smoke coming from the bottom of my rear window. I did not operate my rear power window at any point today. I stopped and looked closer to see something electrical melting behind the rear passenger head rest (see picture). Suddenly there was a loud pop, it was the rear window breaking. The whole thing did not break, just the 1/3 on the driver side. I believe this was the first time I have I used the rear defrost. I'm very happy nothing caught on fire and my back seat was empty. When I drove home there were no problems, the rear defrost was off but now I have a shattered.

The mylink radio system in my 2017 silverrado has developed a mnid of its own. It doesn't matter if the truck is sitting still or moving. Turn radio on and in just a few seconds the radio starts the browse function. It starts scrolling all the stations and on my little screen above my steering wheel goes to audio function disabling my speed readout. Also effects the navigation screen where the map jumps all over the place and displays locations off and on. On the home screen the apps just keep scrolling by never stopping. It is like the system has a ghost in it. It is very distracting while driving as the screen keeps changing. Now I am leaving the radio off. Can not use my navigation which I pay for every year, also sometimes the touch screen will not respond. My truck has 50,800 miles on it. I purchased the truck on october 31 2017.

I scheduled my first routine service on december 16, 2017 at 6217 miles. The service writer, at the selling dealership, advised me the complaint I was experiencing was "normal", as the transmission had "to learn my driving habits" and would clear by my next routine service. My next routine service was november 29, 2018, after having only driven 5,000 miles and I again complained about the transmission issue. This service writer advised the transmission was still too new and that it's not completed learning my driving habits until at least 15,000 to 20,000 miles. I have since searched several chevy truck forums (I. E. Carcomplaints. Com, gmtruckclub. Com, and gm-truck. Com) and have found numerous complainants regarding the same issue experienced by owners across the states. Everyone complains of chevy not able to rectify the problem and citing "normal" operation. On may 28, 2020 I wrote to chevrolet customer assistance center. On june 26, 2020 I received a response from chevrolet in a letter stating they had been unable to contact me and if there was no further issues they would close the case. I called the number in the letter and spoke to "[xxx]", refusing any further identification, stating he would try and get me another appointment to have my vehicle inspected. I am awaiting a response. Just yesterday, while approaching the community security gate at my housing complex, the transmission abruptly shifted from first to second, lurching forward, requiring me to abruptly brake to avoid contact. This is an extreme safety issue that chevrolet is refusing to address. Please help!! Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). *tr

When I first purchased this vehicle it has always shifted hard and shuddered. I took it to the shop and they told me it was because my auto 4 wheel drive was on. It continued to have issues for the next couple of years and each time I took it in for an oil change they would tell me there was nothing wrong with it. The check engine light was on. I took it in again and they said it was because the hood latch needed replaced. Replaced that and 2 days later the check engine light was on again. Took it back and they couldn't figure out why it was on. 3 days later, my transmission went out. Here I am, outside of my warranty and no way to pay the 5,000 it takes to repair my transmission. As I am reading online, it seems that the issues I was having, gm was aware of and hasn't made a fix for this yet. Gm refuses to fix my transmission when they are aware of issues with this year, make, and model.

My truck had the electronic brake control module reprogramming with sps as per recall n192268490 performed on november 11, 2019. The reprogramming worked fine for a few months. In march 2020, I noticed that at low speeds and mainly when backing, the brakes began to lose pressure and what sounded like and felt like the antilock brake system was engaging, and very hard pressure was needed to stop the truck with longer than expected braking occurring. As a few months more past, I did not recognize the problem much as we have quarantined during the covid-19 crisis and have not driven much. However, since late may, the problem has definitely worsened and occurs nearly every time braking at low speeds both moving forward and reverse. I have now seen the warning to service the brake assist message appear on my dash. On may 28th, 2020, while backing our boat into storage, this issue occurred and nearly sent the boat into the storage entry side wall as there is a slight hill just in front of our storage. I had to apply as much pressure as I possibly could to the brakes to stop the truck and boat before hitting the entry side wall. The issue occurred repeatedly as I had to maneuver the boat back and forth much differently to account for the braking issue. I notified my local chevrolet service department and was told a new vacuum brake pump would need to be installed and would be at chevrolet's expense. *tr

My truck began with a notification that says "service stabilitrak", over the course of 48 hours it went from on hard bumps and just the notification, to now constantly turning on. There was a recall for this issue with the abs, but I have to pay the dealer out of pocket. They are currently doing the diagnosis on it to see what the issue is. If the issue matches the same abs issue as the recalls for 2014-2018 models on the silverado, would there be a way to fight the charges? The warning notification and icon would light up when either stationary or moving at any speed. 48 hours ago it would only do it when turning at almost full rotation, or driving over some cracks on the road. Now it just does it randomly and very often to where the brakes would shake when applied. Power also goes down a bit, and the wheel would jerk. Pretty much exactly as how all the prior complaints about it before the recall when it reached youtube. It makes driving very dangerous as I can be turning, then the wheel would spring back into a different position. Before this notification, when I apply the brake it would be very smooth. Now because the truck thinks there's some kind of abs issue, when I brake, it would shake the brake response (like old cars before abs) and also make the vehicle very unsteady. I cannot brake on a straight line as it would sway the vehicle. *tr

Sherry this happens, the steering feels like theres resistance turning and the only way to fix it is to turn off the vehicle and let it sit. Other times it will happen and the vehicle will lose total power,almost like I removed the key but the vehicle will still be rolling.

Fuel injector or fuel pump does not work properly. On two (2) different occasions, months apart, my engine has lost power and the vehicle stalled. Both times at low speeds 10 - 15 mph and low rpms. This has nearly caused me to crash into one vehicle and for another to almost hit me from behind as my car died while making a right hand turn off a busy road. I have had the vehicle towed in twice, but the dealership and gm both say unless they can duplicate the issue they will not fix or replace anything. This vehicle is unsafe and needs to be recalled/reviewed. On top of this, they had to replace the vacuum pump for the brakes and do a software patch update because the backup camera was dangerously bright, especially at night. The camera issue took 2 visits to 2 different dealerships to get resolved. Gm is playing the numbers game of hoping for a fine instead of paying to replace any parts.

Truck transmission was good until about 2,000 miles. Truck has delays when putting in gear after it sits overnight. Truck has harsh low speed downshifts. Problems are real bad when vehicle is cold. When you come to a complete stop and let off the brake the truck will sometimes lunge forward. Took truck back to the dealer where I bought it and they said nothing was wrong so I made an appointment for a week later with another dealership. They did a "timing" test and felt the delay and did 16na364 update. It seemed to help for a couple of days and problem returned. Both dealerships are aware of the problem but gm is not providing a fix. I now warm the truck up a few minutes before driving to help with delayed gear engagement. Harsh downshifts continue with the lunging and slow response at times when applying gas petal. You have to be very careful when driving this truck because of the transmission problems. There are many complaints for this not to be a major problem. This vehicle sticker price was ,000 dollars.

Received a letter from chevrolet advising of a potential problem with brakes, increased brake pedal pressure and stopping distance. Went to dealer and was informed I would have to pay to have a diagnostic performed at my expense to determine problem. Chevrolet corporate informed me this was correct.

Brakes not effective when stopping at low speeds. Dealership repaired, stated it was a known problem but not a recall and a vacuum assist issue. I was involved in a traffic collision at low speed on the interstate. Abs did not engage and I was unable to stop colliding with the vehicle in front of me.

Loss of braking in stop and go traffic. Vehicle brakes are extremely difficult to press in slow moving stop and go traffic. The abs seems to kick in but the vehicle continues to roll forward. Speed would be around 10 mph. Braking is ok at normal highway speeds but losing ablility to brake at low speed. Near miss on rear ending several vehicles.

The truck has a hard time accelerating and randomly upshifts and downshifts. When coming to a stop it has a hard time downshifting which makes it hard to stop. When on the interstate in rush hour traffic it is very dangerous to drive because I have no idea if the truck will accelerate or not and since it has a hard time stopping I am afraid I am going to rear end someone. Another issue the truck has is with the four wheel drive. It works good but it makes a really loud grinding noise when engaged. I am taking it to the dealer today as I have before.

The pickup shakes at speeds typically between 30-45 and 55-75. It shakes hard enough and long enough at times where at higher speeds becomes dangerous because it compromises the steering where the truck can come off its line and become unstable. It will also shake randomly and for unknown periods of time. When it starts I have no control over it and no control over when it starts or stops. I have brought it into the dealer a couple times now. The first time they said I needed to rebalance the wheels and put on new tires so I did both. The second time they said it was a problem with the engine/drivetrain when it deactivates 4 cylinders. They told me there is nothing they can do for this problem. I have researched this and it seems that it is a problem with this specific engine and gm is claiming there is not a safety issue. This is completely false as the truck becomes unstable and steering is compromised. At highway speeds this is a huge issue especially if this continues into winter months where road conditions are not the best.

The dealership determined it was a factory defect and replaced it quickly no problem. At about 13,000 miles I noticed that the ew windshield had scratches left by the wiper blades. Where the blades reverse direction the windshield is scratched so bad it appears milky. I took it to the dealer to see about getting it replaced and was told by the service manager that they couldn't do it without an okay from gm. I contacted gm's directly. After they talked to the dealership they told me that the scratches were my fault for " using the wipers without washer solution" I have never ever turned the wipers on without pressing the washer button first period. I was told by the dealer that he called and left messages with the gm customer service rep. And she has not returned his calls. Yesterday while driving on a winding road the sun hit the scratches just right causing me temporarily to lose sight of the road. I was a lifelong gm customer not anymore!!!!

Vehicle was parked in a shopping center parking lot after being driven for approximately 15 minutes. When returning to the vehicle 10 minutes after parking it, the vehicle starter was attempting to start the vehicle despite no remote start or onstar app being activated to start the vehicle. The vehicle continued to attempt to crank and start, even after I unlocked the vehicle with my key fob, inserted the key into the ignition, and attempting to start the vehicle and turn off the key. The vehicle continued to attempt to crank and start and I smelled a strong electrical burning smell. I then saw blue/greyish smoke coming from the passenger side where the hood meets the windshield. I then gathered my belongings from the truck and watched from a safe distance. After the smoke, the truck no longer attempted to crank or start itself and the smoke was gone within 5 minutes, although there were small instances of smoke over the next 15 minutes. The truck was put on a flatbed tow truck for further diagnosis at the local chevrolet dealership. Initial diagnosis indicated that the "starter had consumed itself" and was the cause of the smoke I saw, but no further information was available.

Purchased my 17 chevrolet silverado 1500 on 11/28/17 and returned it to the dealership on 12/1/17. This was due to a severe shuddering & shifting in the transmission & severe shake in the front end at 70-90mph. They balanced & rotated the tires, saying the issue was fixed, I picked the vehicle back up on 12/4/17 but the issue was not fixed & an electrical issue had also occurred. I took the vehicle back on 12/7/18 with the same complaints regarding the transmission & shaking in the front end, as well as the electrical issue. The problem electrically was while sitting at a stoplight the bright lights flashed & the radio/navigation screen went blank. The dealership called me on 12/8/17, told me they had been unable to duplicate the issues, finding nothing wrong. I left it over the weekend, went in monday morning & spoke to the service manager directly. He told me he had purchased the same vehicle with the same transmission issues. Said there was a possible fix by exchanging the transmission fluid & they would use a new machine pico to check it out. They had to replace the torque converter due to malfunctioning & perform a programming module update on radio, I picked it up on 12/22/17, issue with the transmission was still not resolved. I took it to a different dealership for transmission shudder, shift & shake issue most noticeable at 70-90mph, & radio issue. They were advised to perform a module update on the transmission & given 2 options on the radio, they chose to replace the screen. I took it back to that same dealership, module update made transmission/front end issue worse, especially coming out of a curve. They've replaced my 2 back tires said they were bad & should fix the shaking issue in the front end. Unable to duplicate transmission issues thus they cannot repair it.

Unsafe characteristic!!!! Inadvertent hard shift between 1st and 2nd gear or when driving less than 10 mph. The severity of the shift has nearly caused multiple accidents due to unpredictability. When this happens it is a very startling event that can make you increase throtle press and accelerate the vehicle, oversteer in low speedturns, abruptly apply the brakes to keep from running into objects including people and dizzyness from your head striking the headrest. Each morning when I leave for work I have to make a u-turn. I never know when or how hard the transmission will kick. I've almost ran into a sign/pole if I hadn't quickly steered away from it.

This occurs and on road type, any weather condition. At times the vibrations of this miss/shutter can be a bit violent. If further accerate to force the truck back into v6 mode, the issue resolves itself but as soon as the truck switches back to v4 mode, the problems begins again immediately. I have had the truck at dealer service department 5 times with no resolution to the problem. Instead, the technicians continue to perform unrelated work items that do not alleviate the real issue. Upon my last service for the issue I was informed that "gm doesn't currently have a solution for the problem" and that all of the service work that the technicians continue to perform is "nothing more than a way to try to mask the symptoms so that you don't notice it." upon researching, I have discovered that this exact same issue has arisen in multiple gm trucks.

Truck exhibits a rough idle after truck is driven and warm. Idle causes teh truck to shake and feels like it will die at stops. Rpm drops below 300 rpm then goes back to 490 rpm. In addition the truck will start to shake and vibrate at highway speeds of 75-80 mph. Gmc service performed tsb changing our engine mounts but that has not fixed the issue.

My vehicle is a pickup with the z71 off road package. I use it working on farm and pasture land which requires me to drive off road in tall grass and brush at times. I noticed, and it was called to attention, that grass and brush was collecting around the rear axle, drive line and exhaust system. I got under the vehicle and found two large plastic clamps around the axle housing that have a large v shaped opening facing the front of the pickup. The clamps are catching and holding grass and brush which then builds up as the vehicle travels. I consider this to be a safety issue which number one could cause a fire, cause damage and failure of the drive line and endangers my safety by having to crawl under the vehicle to remove the brush and grass. This problem started when the vehicle was new 6/25/17 to current.

2017 chevrolet silverado 1500 when the vehicle is shifted into reverse (while stopped, from either park or neutral) the backup camera view appears on the display screen. The issue is when it is dark outside, the display is so bright that it blinds the driver. I am unable to see out of the windows or mirrors. There is no ability to dim the screen while the backup camera display is on the screen. The screen is so bright that is takes a few moments to regain night vision. When I then shift into neutral or drive (but before the vehicle moves) the rear view camera display is on the screen but it is dimmed. This is an ongoing issue.

When putting the vehicle into reverse for the purpose of backing up, the radio screen illuminates to a blinding level of brightness when the rear camera view is displayed. This is especially noticeable at night and impairs my ability to see out of my windows. There is no adjustment within the radio settings to fix this issue, and the rotating dial to the left of the exterior lighting knob will do nothing to dim the screen when in reverse. During normal operation (not in reverse), the screen is able to dim with the rotating dial whether parked or driving. I believe this is a software issue that if not resolved, could result in detrimental impacts to driving safety, especially at night. If chevrolet/gm could implement an update that would allow a software update to put a "soft" button into the settings menu, I feel that overall visibility would be improved greatly and temporary night blindness would be a thing of the past. My vehicle is not the only type of gm vehicle affected with this issue.

I have been driving a 2017 chevrolet silverado 1500 z71 pick-up truck since february 2017. Since nearly day one, the vehicle has experienced vibration and wobble like shaking noticeable at normal highway speeds, becoming more noticeable above 60 mph. At certain instances the vehicle begins to experience a mild bouncing. The vehicle has been in to the dealership to repair the problem four times over the course of ownership (apx. Six months at the time of this submission) and approximately 10,000 driving miles and the issue still is ongoing. The dealer stated that they are unable to repair the problem. The dealership had called in a field engineer to help with the issue, twice, they as well, unable to repair the problem. The dealership has replaced numerous tires, road force balanced wheels and tires, replaced suspension bushings, steering gear box, steering bushings, unmounted the body from the chassis and unbolted the exhaust system, reassembling in a different pattern, removed caliper clips, and made other changes. The issue still exists. Following their attempt to repair the issue, the vehicle now makes a clunk noise when executing a tight turning radius and driving over a small bump (such as a driveway apron). When the shaking / vibration occurs, the vehicle feels unstable and feels as if there may be a loss of control.

At night, when shifting into reverse gear and the backup cameras is activated, the system changes the center dashboard display screen from night brightness to full daytime brightness. If looking at the screen when this happens, night vision is lost by the glare. If not looking and in a dark area, it becomes impossible to see much of anything other than the display screen. While the screen is showing what is behind the vehicle, if a turning movement is needed while backing, it is impossible to see if there is anything beside the vehicle (like children) without opening the vehicle windows. If the display brightness would simply remain unchanged when the backup camera is activated, this issue would be resolved. The dealer and chevrolet assistance both state this is how the system is designed to operate and refuse to take any action. They do state the problem "might" be resolved in a future software update.

I am requesting that dot nhtsa investigate the extreme wobble/vibration/shake on new 2017 chevrolet silverado 1500. The vehicle was purchased new and driven under 55 mph for the first 500 miles. After the first 500 miles and beginning to drive highway speeds, between 60 - 75+ miles per hour, a wobble/vibration/shake began to occur. When the wobble/vibration/shake begins the driver feels that control of the vehicle is being lost and the driver must decrease the speed, which is able to be accomplished with both releasing foot off of the accelerator or lightly breaking, in order to regain control. The vehicle has been to the dealer for front left wheel replacement due to the inability of original tire to be balanced, the vehicle has field force balancing 3 times, and the left front axle boot has been replaced. After several attempts to correct the wobble/vibration/shake, the vehicle now has ~10,000 miles, the wobble/vibration/shake continues to occur at highway speeds.

West bound highway 44 before the railroad tracks. Female deer came out of nowhere and was hidden by the a pillar, drivers side, which obscured her sudden crossing. She hit the front, left, of the truck which caused the side-curtain airbags deployment charges on both driver and passenger side, to go off. Bags failed to deploy. The ensuing force from the drivers side curtain airbag plastic cover ejecting out, forcefully rammed into me, pushing me into the center console. Airbag indicator on the dash info screen immediately popped up as did automatic activation of the hazards. Upon coming to a stop on the side of the road, both driver and passenger side-airbags began to smoke. Smell is similar to black/gun powder which I assume the deployment charge is made out of. Taken by ambulance to hospital. Filed claim with insurance. Research this evening reveals a known problem with other airbags in the truck. Nhtsa ref: nhtsa campaign number: 16v651000. I'm wondering if my issue is potentially symbiotic to this issue. Lastly, a check of any recalls on my truck via the mychevy app and nhtsa website, fails to indicate any recalls at all exist on the truck.

Bought the truck 16 nov 16 in idaho. Noticed at the end of jan/early feb '17 that paint chips/knicks were starting to appear all over the truck and in places where the only way you could see them was to the open a door (I. E. Not even exposed to the road). After making numerous inquiries to local gm dealerships, all of whom said it was sand damage, I started doing research. Turns out, I'm not the only person with this issue on their trucks. It appears the issues with paint on gm (both gmc and silverado) trucks started around mid to late model 2014 trucks and persists to this day (see attachments). Additionally, my local dealership here in reno, I have found out, has been lying to me; they told me they submitted two separate requests to gm for the truck to be repainted as they agreed with me (in-person and via phone) that something is wrong with the paint. It turns out, this is all a farce. The two requests they submitted stated, "customer has been advised to file a claim with their insurance as damage is caused due to sand damage. Customer insists dealership submit a claim to gm for warranty re-paint". Whilst I'm paraphrasing here, I was livid to learn this was 'their behind my back kind of thing'. Prior to learning about this shenanigan, I thought for a second that perhaps the dealerships could be correct, maybe it could be damage from driving. So, I took it to three separate repair facilities in the area and all of whom said the same thing, verbatim, "the clear coat is too hard, it's like glass. Factory defect". Well, that confirmed it. Lastly, I have just recently contacted the dealership from which I bought the truck (idaho). They advised me at 1352 on 23 may 17 to escalate this issue beyond gm. And that's why I'm filing this complaint folks. Do your homework before buying any new gm product.

Radio/navigation display is a 8" touch screen similar to display found on a tablet. This screen is used to display the rear camera when vehicle is placed in reverse. At night time when truck is placed in reverse the the display is so bright I can not see out of any of the side windows... To use my mirrors or see if any objects are near. At night when the vehicle is "drive" in dark areas (like highway) this display is way too bright. I called manufacturer and there is no way to adjust the brightness. In my opinion this is very dangerous as I like to have my interior lights very dim.
